[Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snakeskin-colorway-2) decided to draw a drastic comparison between human nature and animal instincts in its latest Nike Football Kingdom collection. The collection features three different [safari-inspired prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snakeskin-colorway-3) that are bold and fresh for the summer.

The similarities between an athlete in the zone and an animal hunting its prey are unparalleled. A sneaker that pays tribute to animalistic instincts then is only a natural fit. This collection features three different shoe designs that draw upon a zebra, leopard and an anaconda for design inspiration. The hip black, white and grayscale safari prints are featured on the classically sleek look of the [Nike Football shoe silhouette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-plus-tiempo). These shoes are a stylishly comfortable fit for working out at the gym or every day wear.
