Lately, all of the Nike Air Royal Mids we’ve seen were sporting brightly colored matte finishes and a smooth Swooshes. This pair couldn’t be further removed from the trend though, as it’s draped in shiny black patent leather.
The tuxedo-ready material covers the entire upper, with the exception of the toe and lower portion of the midfoot. The panel covering those areas makes use of suede. A white midsole further contrasts the upper. Select retailers are carrying these now, including Sneaker Bistro.
