Beaverton has released another colorway of its first shoe to feature its Nike Air cushioning technology, the Air Tailwind 79. This time coming in a brown and grey silhouette, the sneaker is constructed with a “Black-Pure Platinum” mesh upper with “Baroque Brown” suede overlay panels by the toebox, laceguard and heel, coupled with a black Swoosh down the side. White laces sit on top of a cream white tongue for a clean, retro look, topped off by the black and orange signature tongue tag. A vibrant blue lining gives a dash of color, complemented by a green Nike logo on the heel. The whole upper then rests comfortably on a Nike Air cushioned midsole in a matching white shade as the laces, all wrapped around by a black rubber sole. The whole sneaker gives off an understated aesthetic, perfect for a more casual Spring/Summer look.

The Nike Air Tailwaind 79 “Baroque Brown/Black-Pure Platinum” is now available at select Nike retailers such as UEBERVART, with a price tag of  75,63 Euros (approx. $85 USD).
