Nike Air Footscape Woven Cow

Since its ‘96 release, sneakerheads have had a soft spot for the Nike Air Footscape Woven. Whether you love them or hate them, the appreciation is still there for a silhouette that had the courage to embrace a new design language. Most the time you can tell if a sneakerhead will have an unorthodox collection if he’s got a pair of Footscapes on, a sort of scarlet letter if you’d like. Now arriving in this quasi-atmos-looking pack is this “Cow” colourway, guaranteed to further divide opinions on the shoe.

Similar to the Air Max 95, the Air Footscape is anatomically inspired, its asymmetrical laces an obvious giveaway. This language gave a functional edge to the lifestyle nature of the shoe and eventually made its way onto the football boots from the Swoosh’s Total 90 era. Forming the woven detailing is the white fabric on the side wall, wrapping its way around the entire upper and threading the animal-based panels together. The faux cow print further complements the model’s unconventional features, highlighting an already unique structure. Pony hair ticks off another detail that is associated with the Woven iterations, an element which gained the shoe its cult following and will sure to please sneakerheads. The waffle-inspired tread pattern on the outsole is back in its angular fashion, mimicking the off-tilt motif that is an integral part of the silhouette.

If you’re an OG sneakerhead who’s been waiting for the Nike Air Footscape Woven to come back then the wait is almost over! Dropping as part of the Nike SNKRS day collection in '23, these will be landing exclusively via the Nike SNKRS app come the 9th of September.
