The Nike x Tom Sachs 'Mars Yard Overshoe' is a new collaboration footwear design that promises to provide wearers with an enhanced level of comfort that is perfect at the end of the winter.
Completely waterproof, the shoes are infused with nylon-reinforced Dyneema and are distinctly lightweight which makes them ideal for wear in inclement weather. This makes them the perfect substitute for traditional snow boots. The design of the sneakers makes them look ready for the space shuttle which comes as no surprise given the planetary inspired name of the futuristic footwear.
The Nike x Tom Sachs Mars Yard Overshoe will be available starting October 11 and can be worn in two different ways to ensure optimal coverage from the elements.
