Your eyes are playing tricks on you. These Nike Air Royal Mids are definitely real shoes, despite the fact they look like toys at first glance. That effect is a result of the unique way these were created. The purple leather that covers the entire shoe literally covers the Swoosh. The wrapped effect also lends itself to the toe and midfoot panels, while stitching interjects elsewhere. The entire sole uses the same light purple hue, providing a completely monochromatic look. For the liner, perforations were added to the leather. No word has been given about whether these will release stateside, but select overseas stores have them out now. |
