Nike Air Presto “Origins” Covered in Characters From Original Ads

Nike Air Presto Origins CJ1229-900 Release Date

Two decades after its debut in Sydney, the Nike Air Presto is back on the scene sporting the same magical features that originally made it a standout. The “t-shirt for your feet” redefined footwear fit by eschewing traditional sizes in favor of a more simplistic scale featuring small, medium, large and XL—and now, Nike is celebrating the style’s under-appreciated breakthrough by covering the silhouette in heritage-inspired graphics.

During the Presto’s launch, each general-release colorway was given its own wacky moniker—including names like “Brutal Honey”, “Trouble at Home” and “Shady Milkman”. This release revives those nutty icons by covering the shoe in an all-over print depicting each loony character in its full, and historic, glory. Slip on the presto and tap into time-honored innovation that still feels fresh 20 years after its launch.
