Konichiwa, ‘Sashiko’: The eponymous new colorway of the Nike Zoom Vomero 5 gives the comfortable 2010s runner silhouette a fresh twist, inspired by the traditional Japanese art beloved for its intricate patterns and meticulous craftmanship.
The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 ‘Sashiko’ boasts a muted earth tone color palette spread over a material mix featuring a canvas-tooled base layer, leather overlays, and molded plastic accents. The collar comes with eponymous sashiko stitching, paying homage to the aforementioned technique from Japan which has been used for centuries to artfully reinforce fabrics. The characteristic lace cage and heel counter atop a rubber sole round out the pair.
The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 ‘Sashiko’ releases at BSTN on Tuesday, July 2nd. Pick up your pair via the button below!
