Nike Moon Shoe OG Tough Red Mystic Dates

The Nike Moon Shoe OG "Tough Red Mystic Dates" brings back Bill Bowerman's first running shoe for the company, a design that came before the Nike name itself. A nylon upper forms the base, while a leather Swoosh adds a textured contrast across the side.

Bowerman shaped the original sole using his wife's waffle iron. The rubber Waffle outsole here recreates that 1970s running pattern and delivers durable traction. Nylon and leather work together to give the upper a distinct finish that stays close to the trainer's track roots. For anyone drawn to the earliest chapter of the brand's story, this pair makes a fitting place to start.
