Consumers who are looking for some more nostalgic designs to add to their wardrobes are likely to find the updated Nike Pantheon models appealing.
In order to maintain the retro aesthetic that the sneakers are known for, the sportswear giant leaves the silhouette almost exactly as it used to be, with only a few minor changes made to the design of the uppers. These components are made from a combination of neoprene and suede, with the latter accenting the uppers with pops of different colors.
Included in the new Nike Pantheon collection is a white, black and coral model, two variations of black and white ones, and a navy and black version. In addition to making some slight adjustments to the uppers, Nike includes some added cushion to the soles to make the updated sneakers more comfortable.
