COMME des GARÇONS HOMME PLUS Drops the Nike Sense 96 Shoe

— April 8, 2025 — Fashion
COMME des GARÇONS HOMME PLUS works in collaboration with Nike to launch three colorways of the Sense 96 sneaker model. The release date is set for April 10th and it will be available to shop at Dover Street Market. The two brands highlight minimal colorways including the black variation and the white colorway followed by a bright pink option for those who prefer a bolder statement.

Branding which nods to COMME des GARÇONS HOMME PLUS can be seen at the medial side of the midfoot at the midsole unit to match the tongue and co-branded details at the sock liner with Swoosh detailed throughout the shoe. The upper has a layered look complete with cushioned cutouts.
