Along with the watercolor London and flag-inspired Milan sneakers Nike released as a part of its EU City pack are the Paris sneakers, which boast a design that's much different.
Like the other sneakers in the pack, the Paris sneakers utilize Nike's Air More Uptempo model, which is known for its chunky basketball style build and large bubble letter branding that's included along the sides of the uppers. Nike uses this bold branding to provide the Paris sneakers with contrast, helping to diversify the the sleek glossy uppers with luxurious hints of gold, which frame the bubble letters. Gold is also used on the backs of the heels, where an embroidered map is included.
