Nike updates the Waffle One sneaker model with another bold Bred colorway for the colder seasons ahead of us. The shoes boast three tones throughout the silhouette and have a clear grid upper at the top to showcase the red toe box at the inner section.
It is then complete with a black suede overlay on top by the heel counter, the eye stays, and the mudguard areas. More red accents can be seen lining the tip of the tongue and at the ankle collar while the notable Swoosh can be seen on the lateral side of the shoe in a bright white hue to stand out in contrast. It all sits on top of the dramatic outsole in white and black heel.
