Nike Air Royal Black Patent

The Nike Air Royal has surfaced sparingly this year. Specifically, we spotted it in two head-turning colorways in the spring and just recently in two boot-inspired styles. In addition, Dunk, among other select retailers, now has the Air Royal in a black patent leather finish.

The sneaker enthusiasts who like the Air Royal appreciate it for its simplicity, and this style sticks to that despite owning the eye-popping patent leather feature. The entire upper is made of black patent leather except the black suede toe area. Other features include a perforated swoosh, a grey sole and black shoelaces. Click here to view additional photos.
