The Air Kukini has got to be one of the most recognizable silhouettes in the Beaverton-based brand's vast retro roster. Initially introduced in 2000, the vintage model was brought back after two decades and it's now better than ever before. Renowned for its unique design, it has now been unleashed in the form of the Nike Air Kukini "Pilgrim."
Featuring the same sock-like neoprene upper as the OG, a transparent webbing wraps around the entire shoe for extra structure and support, while textured leather embraces the toebox and back. Diamond-shaped pull tabs are stitched onto the tongue and heel where you'll find Swoosh branding, and underfoot, an Air midsole offers comfort and cushioning for all-day wear. The old school aesthetic is then reinforced with a single Air bubble.
Expected to release in Spring 2023 in men's sizes for $130, if you're a fan of '00s sneakers then the Nike Air Kukini Pilgrim is a must-own.
