Editor’s Notes: After recently debuting a colorful take on the Air Zoom Spiridon Cage 2, size? returns to tease a new Nike-exclusive. This time around the retailer has gotten its hands on one of the Swoosh's more intriguing new silhouettes in the Air Zoom Type.
The Air Zoom Type is essentially a lifestyle version of Nike's record-breaking Zoom Alphafly NEXT% runner. This particular iteration looks to London and Tokyo for inspiration, specifically drawing from their shared appreciation of contemporary style.
size? has yet to share specific launch information for the "Hemp" Air Zoom Type, but you can expect it to arrive "soon." As always, though, be sure to check back with us for more.
