One of the more anticipated sneaker releases of this year is Drake‘s Nocta x Nike Glide. Ahead of its release, multiple iterations of the silhouette have emerged on social media.
Sneaker social media account @Nicekicks shared images on Instagram yesterday of the upcoming Nocta x Nike Glide releases.
A first look at the unreleased Nocta x Nike Glide sneaker initially surfaced last month, which revealed the model in a predominantly black and gray color scheme. The new images show the sneaker in a red, green, white and gray, as well as two tonal black and white makeups.
The Nocta x Nike Glide silhouette sneaker appears to be inspired by the Air Zoom Flight 95, which is a classic basketball model famously worn by NBA legend Jason Kidd during the 1990s. The Nocta x Nike Glide is constructed with a mesh upper that’s paired with a separate overlay panel on the mudguards. Rounding out the design is a Zoom Flight 95-inspired midsole but switching things up from its inspiration, the Nocta x Nike Glide features four pods on the sides instead of three along with “Nocta” branding towards the heel.
