Nike unveils the latest and very vibrant tonal design of the Waffle One sneaker model, adorning the shoe in hues of Hyper Pink and University Red. The stark upper allows the bottom half to be decorated in much more muted tones. The upper has a translucent mesh material in the aforementioned Hyper Pink Hue.
It is then met with some suede overlays that make up the throat, heel, and forefoot section of the shoe, which are decorated in the University Red color along with some accents of Hyper Crimson that makes up the shoe's branded Swoosh, the exposed stitching on the lower throat and interior lining. Finishing off the shoe are some purple and yellow touches to round it all out.
