Nike's 'Snowflake Pack' Features Two Sneakers with an Icy-Blue Colorway
Colin Smith — January 18, 2022 — Fashion
Nike has debuted the 'Snowflake Pack' of winter-themed sneakers. The pack features two iconic silhouettes, the 'Air Max 90' and the 'Air Force 1' and each have been given an icy blue colorway in this mini collection. The Air Max 90 features ice-blue accents on the upper, heel, and eyestay, as well as multiple shades of gray throughout the midsole and upper. This shoe also maintains the iconic stitching pattern of the Air Max 90, meaning it has several layers of design on the entire shoe.
For the Air Force 1, Nike has opted to lean more into the theme of snow than ice. The majority of the simplistic Air Force 1 silhouette is covered in white and gray suede with the icy-blue color only appearing on the tongue and on a Nike logo placed on the upper. These two shoes are available now on Nike's website for around $80 USD.
