Nike’s D/MS/X sub-label is known for its modernized takes on archival Nike Sportswear silhouettes, one of which is the D/MS/X Waffle. A current-day iteration of a silhouette whose roots run all the way back to Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman’s Blue Ribbon Sports era, the D/MS/X Waffle is equal parts past, present and future, and has now been given a sustainable makeover.Textile uppers consist of two main pieces — a dark orange/brown forefoot and a gray heel — split by a “Sci-Fi Purple” swoosh and capped by a similarly toned heel tab. Exposed foam tongues are dressed in gray as well, with bold branded accents appearing on heel tabs and tonge tags alike. Down below, the trim EVA foam midsole is bolstered by a piece of marbled gray rubber with orange and blue detailing. This striking addition runs from the toe to the heel before dropping down and folding back into the midfoot, where it connects with the outsole. The outsole itself boasts a waffle pattern and recycled NikeGrind rubber, even rising onto the toe for an extra pop of look-completing style.The Regrind-equipped D/MS/X Waffle is available now via Nike Hong Kong, and is priced at $799 HKD (approximately $130 USD).Looking for more fresh Swoosh sneakers?
