Nike introduces a look at the newest textural and tonal iteration of the Field General 82 sneaker model. It is made with a blend of Pearl White, Vachetta Tan, Sail, and Khaki tones throughout the silhouette. Set to join the roster for the Summer/Fall 2025 range, the retro model is defined by its breathable woven build.
The model replaces its usual leather build with a cross-stitched upper in a pink and white color. This is designed to keep things breathable and cool on warmer days. The overlays are done in beige and the gum-style sole unit is designed in a relaxed summer-ready look. Branding marks the heel tab and the sides of the shoe with the Swoosh emblem.
