Nike introduces a new tonal update to the Court Legacy Lift sneaker model with the Coconut Milk colorway to join its roster this season. The shoe has been seen throughout this year so far, detailing silhouettes such as the Air Force 1 Low and the Air Max 97 sneaker.
The creamy tone now accents the Lift iteration of the shoe, which provides a platform sole unit foundation, elevating the sneaker. The shoe also spotlights the furry Swoosh emblem in a Dark Beetroot color, and the maroon hue continues onto the midfoot midsole in the form of a line, at the sock lining, heel, and tongue branding details. Off-white hues make up the rest of the shoe including the leather upper, rubber outsole, mesh tongue, and padded heel.
