Nike Alpha Project fans who have been on the prowl for OG pairs can ease their hunt, as the Nike Air Kukini returns this year. We’ve seen a few colorways so far, such as the “Lemon Venom Aurora Green” and the “Mystic Navy Aviator Grey.” Now, a leopard-themed pair is on the way.
Coming in black, kumquat, white, and action red, the Nike Air Kukini "Leopard" features an all-leopard print upper. The clear web wraps around the entire top of the foot, extending out from the bottom of the midsole, and wrapping around the back heel of the sneaker as well. Kumquat orange hits are found via the embroidered Swoosh on the tongue and Max Air unit in the heel. Textured black leather on the tongue pull tab, the toe, heel counter, and heel pull tab are finished off by the Alpha Project debossed five dots, featured on the lateral side of the heel counter, and a black solid rubber outsole.
The Nike Air Kukini Leopard is set to release in September 2022. It will drop at Nike as well as select Nike retailers worldwide, in-store and online at a retail price of $140 in men’s sizes. Keep it locked to our Twitter andMobile App to stay up to date on future releases.
