Nike unveils a new iteration of its iconic Air Flightposite sneaker model with a captivating colorway palette honoring none other than the Green Goblin. The silhouette is detailed with a black and metallic gold finish and it is a combination that has been seen before in 1999.
The shoes gained the name Green Goblin in 2002 after the film came out and the shoes are adorned with a lustrous coating. Nike coats the silhouette in a mold over the upper and then it is finished with black shades and green-like gold luster for a dark yet iridescent wrapping. It is set to launch officially on October 30th and can be shopped on Nike's SNKRS app.
