Breaking the Mold: Nike Air Royal Mid VT Dark Grey/Volt

Sometimes, you really can't help but wonder where designers gain their inspiration from and the Nike Air Royal Mid VT Dark Grey/Volt doesn't fail to spark intrigue.  While these kicks aren't the first to ever combine a couple of materials, as there is even another colorway with the same build, the collaboration is still a curious one.

Charcoal gray wool envelops the light gray leather upper down to the outsole.  Accompanying the two shades of gray are a white midsole and volt green laces that provide appropriate contrast.  A "NIKE AIR" logo is carved into the heel of the midsole and stamped on the tongue.  There is also a leather heel tab and an additional leather segment stitched right above the midsole.

I'm sure it would be overkill, but what I'd want to go with these sneakers is a sick pea coat to match the wool armor that protects the Swoosh.  You can grab a pair of these at the SNS online store here or check out some additional colorways and styles below.
