The Off-White x Air Max 97 ‘Menta’ features a translucent textile upper finished in Wolf Grey, complemented by Virgil Abloh’s signature text and tonal zigzag stitching throughout. The neutral color scheme is disrupted by a multicolored Swoosh that transitions from green to blue to red, while underfoot, a smoky grey rubber outsole maintains the shoe’s translucent theme.

The Off-White x Air Force 1 ‘Volt’ veers from the established orthodoxy of Virgil Abloh’s Nike design playbook, maximizing a neon hue from the Swoosh’s signature palette that the designer had previously left untouched. It coats the shoe’s mixed-material upper as well as its laces and midsole. Contrasting hits of black bring tonal variety to the Swoosh and medial-side quarter panel, which is printed with Virgil’s trademark text.

The Off-White x Zoom Fly is one of five sneakers from ‘The Ten’ collection that features a translucent synthetic upper— a design quirk that Virgil Abloh leverages here as a means of revealing the performance runner’s inner workings. It’s a final consumer product that’s cloaked in the trappings of an early-stage prototype, mounted on a highly responsive Foam midsole that’s ready to take on the streets.
