Name: Nike Air Foamposite One “Tianjin 2.0”
Colorway: White/Light Poison Green-Black-Lava Glow-Tour Yellow
SKU: IR2078-100
MSRP: $250 USD
Release Date: May 2026
Where to Buy: Nike

Sneaker collectors are officially getting a second chance at securing a legendary grail. Nike has confirmed that it is bringing back one of the most highly coveted releases in Foamposite history with the upcoming launch of the Nike Air Foamposite One “Tianjin 2.0.” Serving as a thoughtful follow-up to the ultra-rare 2015 drop that commanded massive resale prices, this refreshed iteration preserves the rich cultural storytelling of the original while offering a sharp new visual update.

The original 2015 “Tianjin” edition was created to celebrate the deep-rooted basketball culture of Tianjin, China. Because it was released exclusively in Asia, the sneaker instantly gained grail status among stateside collectors. For 2026, Nike is keeping that powerful storytelling intact. The signature Foamposite shell once again acts as a canvas for detailed, Chinese-inspired artwork, heavily featuring lotus flowers, carp fish, and references to the Fuwa mascots from the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

While the breathtaking graphics remain faithful to the 2015 original, the “Tianjin 2.0” introduces a noticeable update to the overall construction. Swapping out the darker accents found on the predecessor, this new version opts for clean white detailing across the inner lining, tongues, and lace panels. This subtle but effective change gives the robust sneaker a much brighter look and a sharper contrast, elevating the iconic shell graphics even further.

Coming dressed in an official “White/Light Poison Green-Black-Lava Glow-Tour Yellow” colorway, the release is already shaping up to be one of the most talked-about drops of the summer season.
