As we’ve come to expect from Awake NY collabs, attention to detail is massive. That actually begins with a new iteration of the shoebox, which comes in grey/silver, paying homage to late 90s-early 2000s Air Max.

In his own ‘Blueberry’ unboxing clip, Angelo says that he aimed to get many of his design elements to resemble the OG shoe, including ensuring the nubuck upper is as close to the original Infrareds from 91.

Premium touches are present throughout both versions; the heel features luxe Saffiano leather, Awake’s A logo is stamped on the side panel, accented by 3M reflective Infrared contrast stitching, and dual heel branding sees Awake NY typed out in classic Nike Sans Serif font, sitting proudly beneath the Swoosh.
