Sunset-Inspired Tonal Sneakers

Nike Gives the Air Max DN a Gradient Sunset-Themed Palette

Nike's Air Max DN sneaker model is one of its most advanced silhouettes with a bubble Air unit at the base. The most recent variation of the shoe is highlighted by its colorway palette. Complete with a gradient design, the base of the silhouette starts with a black hue and then gradually turns into a bright orange closer to the tongue. This reflects the look of a sunset and this variation is set to launch early next month.

Other details include the branding accents which come in the form of a small red Swoosh motif on the side of the silhouette. It also reads Air Max DN on the tongue tab and the silhouette is secure by a set of black laces over the bright orange tongue.
