The “Neapolitan” motif is one that is occasionally showcased on sportswear sneakers. In the past, we’ve seen it land on models like the Air Jordan 3 as well as the Air Force 1 Low in more recent memory, and now Nike is set to broaden its horizons by using it to outfit the Air Max 90 Futura.

It’s worth noting that this particular makeup is in no way officially tied to the sugary dessert nor has any sort of ice cream-inspired branding, but its palette is certainly spot on. A vanilla-esque asserts its dominance here by draping the mudguards, overlays adjacent to the throat, and tongue banners while chocolate-y hits show face on the Swooshes and heels. To top everything off, the Swoosh design team sprinkled in dusty pink accents on the quarter panel overlays, interior liners, and the embroidered branding that is parked on the heels. Midsole pieces are adorned in white and the outsoles arrive divided up with more hues that relate to the tri-flavored treat.

No release date has been announced just yet, but this women’s-friendly offering is likely to release in the coming weeks.

In other news, an Off-White™ x Nike Air Force 1 Mid “Graffiti” colorway could be on the way.
