The new Nike 'Air Pegasus 83' in 'Twine' continues this old-school sneaker's modern-day revival. First launched in 1983, and now reissued in several colorways, the retro look of these functional running shoes has appeared to land mainstream streetwear appeal.
The new 'Twine' colorway restyles these sneakers with neutral tan tones, which complement the model's robust nylon build and suede finish. The shoe's soothing hues are balanced by an off-white shade called 'Coconut Milk,' which dons the iconic Nike swoosh, tongue, and heel tab. Of course, Bill Bowerman's classic black outsole is left unchanged, adding a pleasant contrast to the white and tan colorway resting just above it.
Customers can expect to get their hands on the Nike 'Air Pegasus 83' in 'Twine' on August 21 via the Nike online store.
