Sneaker News #99 – Nike and Off-White Drop a Nostalgic Hiking Boot

Welcome to Sneaker News #99. This week, Nike and Off-White are continuing to honour Virgil Abloh’s legacy with another collab that this time turns its attention to the hiking boot aesthetic. If you’re looking for a more traditional silhouette though, Travis Scott has put his spin on the Nike Attack. And, if you’re not keen on Scott’s Cactus Jack logos, there is another Nike Attack release with a cleaner look. Elsewhere, there are new drops from Fucking Awesome and adidas and Teddy Santis with New Balance. Check it all out below.

Once again in collaboration with Travis Scott, the Nike Attack has arrived. Originating in ’84, this colour-blocked shoe redefined on-court aesthetics and forever altered the game’s appearance. Now Scott takes his eye to it, defining it with the distinctive backward Swoosh and the custom Cactus Jack heel embroidery. A pop of colour on the tongue is thematically carried across to the eye-catching box. Nike will have these for sale on 19th December.

The Nike Attack looks to be positioned as the Nike shoe to take over in 2023.

This colour-blocked classic returns in a colourway plucked straight from the ’80s, adorned with bright yellow overlays. The mid-top silhouette feels particularly vintage but also reminiscent of some of the most popular recent sneakers. Head to Nike for your chance to cop on 22nd December.
