Nike's Zoom Spiridon Cage 2 Sneakers Get a Premium Update

— November 4, 2020 — Fashion
Sportswear label Nike introduces new iterations of the signature Zoom Spiridon Cage 2 sneaker model. This time around, the lifestyle sneaker gets premium updates that bring the design to the next level. There are two colorway options in total of either black or sesame.

The shoes are made from a blend of suede and leather materials that contribute to the luxurious details. It is meant to replace the usual mesh underlay with luscious suede that is complemented with glossy leather to match and grid-cut paneling. Branding details can be found in the form of the Swooshes at the midfoot, tongue tags, heel tags, and printed midsoles. This all sits atop of the brand's Air Phylite midsole with rubber outsoles.
