Nike and sacai's collaboration has been a hallmark of innovation and design in the sneaker world. The partnership, known for its groundbreaking designs, is set to revisit one of its most celebrated models in 2024: the LD Vaporwaffle. Since its debut, this silhouette has captivated sneakerheads, offering a unique blend of Nike's athletic heritage and sacai's avant-garde approach to fashion. Last seen in 2022 with the Sail and Black colorways (though 2023 did see a remix with Jean Paul Gaultier), the LD Vaporwaffle has consistently pushed the boundaries of sneaker design.
In this upcoming release, the sacai x Nike LD Vaporwaffle showcases new colorways in Midnight Navy and Gorge Green, each exuding a distinctive character while staying true to the silhouette's iconic design. The sneaker maintains its signature layered aesthetic, featuring double laces, dual Swooshes, and additional tongue layers, contributing to its complex and intriguing look. The design perfectly represents sacai's philosophy of “hybridization,” merging different elements to create something entirely new. The sole unit, a defining feature of the LD Vaporwaffle, continues to impress with its stacked appearance. It is complemented by a durable rubber outsole with a classic waffle traction pattern for optimal grip.
The sacai x Nike LD Vaporwaffle will release in 2024 through sacai, Nike, SNKRS, and select retailers online and in-store. Priced at $250, these sneakers will be available in men’s sizing. Stay updated on this launch and other exciting sneaker news by downloading the Sole Retriever mobile app.
