Nike has announced the launch of an all-new version of the 'Nike Zoom MMW 5 Clog,' which was designed by Matthew M Williams as part of his ongoing partnership with the sportswear giant. The hybrid slide was first debuted during the Spring/Summer 2023 1017 ALYX 9SM runway show.
The eye-catching clogs feature 'Volt' uppers that are made from a unique foam construction and come with a textured circular pattern that is similar to the eyewear brand Oakley's signature logo. In addition, the uppers feature large windows for added airflow and small perforations designed to help drain water.
For those interested, the new Nike Zoom MMW 5 Clog is expected to be released sometime this fall and will be available to purchase online on Nike's website.
