Recently, it made its retail debut in three colorways, including “Anthracite” and “Triple White.”Now, as Nike starts to preview its fall-oriented products, an “Olive” colorway has emerged. Again, mesh, leather and suede combine for a breathable finish that offers plenty of space for a multitude of green hues to get involved.
