Following a first look at Tom Sachstake on the Nike Solarsoft Sandals, we now have a closer look at the artist’s reworked Crocs-like shoe.

On display at Sach’s “Tea Ceremony” exhibition at the Tokyo Opera City Art Gallery, the vibrant mustard yellow Lunarlite constructed sandals feature a ridged footbed, perforations at the toe accompanied by an upper strap portion and an impact absorption sculpted sole section. Maintaining a one-piece design, branding hits come in the form of debossed Swooshes at the midfoot and “NIKE” at the rear. Light brown straps similar to the ones found on the Tom Sachs x Nike Mars Yard Overshoe are tacked on to round up the design of the shoe.

After seeing Sach’s wearing the shoes around Tokyo and learning about the upcoming NIKECRAFT Transitions collaborative collection, rumors are now leaning towards a release of the Tom Sachs’ take on the Nike Solarsoft Sandals in the near future.

Stay tuned for more details as they become available.

In case you missed it, Tom Sachs talks spirituality, sensuality and hardware in our recent interview with the artist.
