Nike Waffle D/MS/X

Sep 17, 2020Sep 17, 2020 by Freddy Fang

Through kitchen experimentation, Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman created one of the Swoosh’s most significant sneakers: the Nike Waffle. However, since its original inception, the model has undergone a variety of changes, both in design and in material construction. With the Sacai collaborations creating a modern resurgence for the sneaker, Nike looks to cook-up more Waffles, this time in the D/MS/X model.

Staying true to its classic silhouette, this iteration of late ‘70s sneaker features a runner profile. The forefoot is mapped in “Forest Green” suede, which transitions to the canvas through the lace-guards. A black Swoosh overlay is prominently displayed across a grey nylon-like material. Additionally, a bright orange hue finds itself streaking across the sneaker’s midsole, while also being found on all “D/MS/X” branding. The design is finished with an exposed foam tongue, an elevated pointed midsole, and a waffle traction outsole.

The Nike Waffle D/MS/X “Forest Green” looks to release in the near future for $145 on Nike.com. Early pairs have also surfaced on eBay.com, so head over the second-hand platform to cop yours.

Looking back through the adidas Yeezy catalog, it is with utmost certainty that Kanye West loves earth tones. However, this forthcoming adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 “Yecher” takes a new direction in combining earth tones with a tonal blue streak.

This latest iteration of the esteemed lifestyle-runner sneaker blends various shades of brown hues. The upper serves as a mixture between red-toned brown that moves into a darker brown variation. However, this transition is interrupted by the dash of blue found across the side-panels. The laces reflect the lighter tones of brown as well. Sitting atop a lighter-toned gum sole, this adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 looks to be a solid pick-up for one’s fall rotation.

Look to hop on Yeezy Supply and adidas.com and select retailers for these. Stay tuned as we await official information.
