The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 has become the go-to silhouette for the ecosystem’s current dad-shoe trend. Influencing the resurgence of fellow archival runners and colorways, the Beaverton brand’s marquee tooling that effortlessly blends function and fashion has delved further into the latter with the appearance of sashiko style stitching.
Immediately, the textural rework is evident through a canvas-tooled base layer that strays away from the model’s synonymous mesh build. Cast in a neutral-based tan, the forefoot’s presiding texture renders color matches along the TPU fixtures of the heel and mid-foot overlay whereas a slightly darker tint injects a layered aesthetic throughout the surrounding leather overlays. Hints of grey collect atop the suede quarter, slightly shadowing the light olive pull tabs above while the toe and heel’s mudguards are sparked with a rustic orange finish. What’s more, the silhouette’s exploratory palette is opened even further as a rich chocolate brown animates the profile swooshes and tread before a denim-reminiscent blue anchors the heel collar’s sashiko stitched embellishment.
The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 “Sashiko” is expected to be released sometime in the Spring of 2024. In the meantime, the pair can be seen ahead in detailed imagery.
