It’s no secret that the Calm Slide has been a key offering in Nike’s summer arsenal this year. Upon reveal, it was quick to draw attention with its minimalist build (which some compared to adidas’ YEEZY SLIDE) that slid into the slip-on trend with ease. Since then, the Swoosh has expanded on the Calm family with the reveal of the Calm Mule and Flip-Flop.

Now, following the reveal of the fall-ready “Rugged Orange” that hit the net at the end of last week, a bold orange colorway has popped up. Per usual, it leans on the straightforward build to host the signature shade across the entirety of its build. Supporting this, simple Swoosh hits are scattered throughout.

Hang tight as no release details regarding this orange take on the Nike Calm Slide has been disclosed by the Swoosh. Look for it and additional colorways to touch down on shelves in the coming weeks via Nike and select retailers at a starting price of $50 USD.

Stay tuned for updates regarding the popular silhouette and for more of the latest news from the world of footwear, Drake’s Nike NOCTA line is back with yet another new sneaker — revisiting the Air Zoom Drive in a black and white colorway that features prominent co-branding.
