Nike ACG recently announced that it is breathing life back into the Rufus Mule silhouette for the year and it is seen once again with the same durable build. The silhouette was first released in 2011 and gets an earthy tonal palette this time around.
It arrives in a Limestone colorway with a smooth upper made from suede materials. It is also designed with padded comfort points that offer a soft step. It rests on a chunky rubber midsole and grippy outsole unit for traction. The shoe's branding is kept minimal with a small Swoosh detailing the front and another embossed onto the side. It is rounded out by the "All Conditions Gear' printed on the insole.
