Sportswear giant Nike has unveiled the newest version of its ACG Air Mada sneaker, which arrives dressed in a 'Light Stone/Mineral State' colorway. The new sneaker colorway sees the brand continuing its recent push toward retro-inspired hiking designs.
Like the original, the Air Mada in Light Stone/Mineral State is constructed from an extra-tough leather and neoprene material, both of which work together to deliver a pair of all-terrain shoes capable of tackling the toughest trails. Other notable elements of the shoe include pull tabs that can also be used as backpack clips and rubber toe caps for added durability and weatherproofing.
For those interested, the Nike Air Mada in Light Stone/Mineral State is now available to purchase online at Nike's website.
