The Nike AIr Moc Fleece is a Slipper You Can Wear Outdoors
Malika Renee Butss — March 1, 2016 — Fashion
Nike has given its retro Air Moc silhouette a fleece treatment. After debuting the fleece-covered Sock Dart, NikeLab is covering even more recognizable silhouettes in the warm material.
Released in two colorways, the Air Moc Fleece model is a durable, laceless and futuristic piece of footwear. It retains its full-length Air Sole unit and lug-patterned outsole which go along with the shoe's adjustable cord toggle and static collar. Consumers have a choice of the tonal grey iteration which features contrasting touches of black and University Red or the purple version which demonstrates grey accents.
With fleece material atop its slip-on silhouette, the Air Moc Fleece sneaker is very reminiscent of house slippers. Nike's laid back design makes these trainers the next big comfort shoe that blends fashion with function.
