Bright Tonal Practical Sandals

Nike's Asuna Slide Arrives in a Summer Light Lemon Twist Colorway

Nike introduces the latest iteration of the Asuna slide model for the summer season in colorways that are seasonally appropriate such as the 'Light Lemon Twist' and the 'Total Crimson' options. The new vibrant options are an elevated and bright option following the previous Medium Olive tonal design.

The sandals have the sportswear brand's logo on the top of the model against the panel which is made from a textured denim. Additionally, the logo also rests on horizontal quilting as some textural foundation. The lateral side has a layered drawcord system for adjustability based on the wearer. Rounding out the rest of the model are light cushions enforced by neoprene under the denim upper with a dual density foam underfoot for comfort.
