After emerging in an aquatic spin, Nike‘s unorthodox Air Kukini silhouette returns once again in a bright and sunny colorway perfect for Summer. First arriving on the scene in 2000 as part of Nike’s experimental Alpha Project, the laceless silhouette saw a modern revival in 2022.

The upcoming pairs are found in orange and bubbly blue mesh uppers with suede paneling along the mudguard and heel counter. Air Kukini’s signature TPU webbing wraps around the silhouette in gloss black hues while pull tabs are fixed on the tongue and heel. Rounding out the look are Nike Air midsoles below featuring slim transparent windows and two-toned outsoles.

Take a closer look at the upcoming Nike Air Kukini colorway above and look for the pairs to release in the coming weeks via Nike and select retailers for $140 USD.

Elsewhere in footwear, here’s a first look at the Jacquemus x Nike J Force 1 “White.”
