Name: Nike Air Rift “Black Swan”
SKU: IH1990-010
Colorway: ”Black/Black-Black”
Retail Price: $105 USD
Release Date: 2025
Retailers: Nike

Notes: Nike is adding another colorway in its ballet-inspired Air Rift range.

The upcoming “Black Swan” iteration takes a turn from its “Soft Pink” counterpart, but retains its mesh and neoprene build. This all-black offering features a tabi-style toebox with an embroidered swoosh, with additional branding on the insoles, midsoles and strap.

The model rests on a lightweight phylon midsole and sturdy rubber outsole with midfoot and heel velcro straps. Tying it together for that extra hit of elegance and grace are removable satin ribbons, which can wrap around the ankles to top off the ballerina look.
