Nike introduces a new tonal iteration of the Waffle One sneaker with an Electric Green colorway update. The dynamic sneakers are often detailed with bright hues and the latest does not disappoint. The low-top shoe has a fusion of electric green, black, and Mean Green.
This bright uppers are offset by the white and black details that can be seen on the waffle outsoles. In terms of the construction, the shoe is made with breathable mesh materials accented with suede at the overlaying sections. The supportive structure is reinforced by synthetic materials and the supportive mudguards continue to do the same. The Swoosh on the side of the shoe also add some contrast as it is done in a leather material.
