Hand-Woven Athletic Sneakers

Nike's 'Free Inneva Woven II' Ends Summer with Pastel-Colored Shoes

Earlier this year, Nike released its 'Free Inneva Woven II,' a collection featuring hand-woven sneakers. With an inventive design and construction, the shoes first launched in either black or white.

In capitalizing on the end of summer however, Nike has decided to release a new fresh update to the woven sneakers. Pastel blue and green styles are now made available, adding even more visual interest to the unique shoe.

The whimsical sneaker construction consists of leather, suede and hand-woven nylon. The pastel color option adds even more variety to the popular shoe. The two add-ons feature a blue and green version, both of which are monochromatic in design. The use of color is an extremely tasteful and subtle touch, and does not take away from the shoe's hand-woven innovation.
