You can count on Comme des Garçons to step out creatively when it comes to its Nike collabs. Over the years, it’s become clear Nike has given the Rei Kawakubo-directed label free rein to design as it see fit. Called the Premiere (style code DJ8545-100) and inspired by a ’90s-era soccer shoe, the latest silhouette features a black or white quilted upper and is distinguished by a cone shaped heel and a lug sole.
First revealed on the label’s fall 2021 “Landscape of Shadows” runway presentation, the shoe is one in a series of Nike and Comme des Garçons’ collabos featuring a wedge or a heel such as the 2018 Machomai lace-up bootie.
Priced at $620) and available in women’s sizes 6-10, Nike and Comme des Garçons’ Premiere shoe is now available at Dover Street Market stores and online site.
