This shoe comes dressed in white and dark orange in a mix of layered suede, mesh, and leather. A black swoosh outline and “June 18, 1971” text is printed on the inner arch on the medial side. Below, a white midsole and full-length Air unit sit atop black rubber outsoles. Accents including the retro tongue tab, “Nike” text pull tab, and gold swoosh lace clip round out the commemorative sneaker.
