Nike *Finally* Gets in on the Sneaker-Loafer Boom
Name:Nike Air Max PhenomenaColorway:Black/Metallic SilverSKU:HJ4400-002Retail Price:TBDRelease Date:2025Where to Buy:Nike On Monday morning, Atmos creative lead Hirofumi Kojima surfaced photos of the Nike Air Max Phenomena, showing an elegant hybrid with an Air Max Sunder sole as the foundation for textured black leather uppers. Amidst continued discourse surrounding 'innovation' atNike, the activewear titan has produced a new fusion model, echoing the sneaker-loafer styles released by brands likeNew Balance,HOKA, andPUMA. The athletic outsoles, boasting Nike Air's signature cushions, stand out as the most sneaker-geared design detail, followed by an extended mud guard that undulates in curves around the lateral panel. The remainder of the body is dedicated to the more formal sensibilities, focusing on the textured black leather loafer upper and a small metal Swoosh logo attached to the tongue. For added functionality, Nike incorporates an extended leather pull tab that protrudes from the back for a tactical look. The Nike Air Max Phenomena, led by Nike'sSerena Williams Design Crew, follows the recent unveiling of loafer styles at Nike's other it off, presenting theAll-Star Coupe GB Loaferin early March and subsequently unveiling theAll-Star Coin Loaferjust last week. Elsewhere,Jordanturned heads in early June with the reveal of the women'sAir Jordan Mule Loafer, a platform slide with a loafer toebox. With both the Jordan and the new Nike Air Max Phenomena model designed for the women's lines, Nike has yet to introduce a strong sneaker-loafer contender to its recent men's lines outside of Converse. Will a Nike men's sneaker-loafer look different? Perhaps, leaning more technical? Or will the brand continue with the pared-back lifestyle-geared look of its current sneaker-loafers? New Balance's 1906L, one of the earlier contributions to the sneaker-loafer boom, somehow remains among the most resonant models released in the last few seasons. Instead of going for the Nike Air Phenomena's archetypal loafer look, the New Balance model merely takes the shape of a low-profile loafer and instead reimagines the whole body with the athletic brand's technical mesh and various overlays. Halfway through 2025, it seems that Nike is only now ramping up its sneaker-loafer releases — a relatively late move from the brand compared to its competitors, who got strong responses (good and bad) for their sneaker-loafer interpretations in 2024 and early 2025. The argument that the brand had been slow in its innovative stride was strengthened by the recentreplacementof Nike's Chief Innovation Officer, John Hoke, who was at the company for more than three decades. In his place, Tony Bignell, who led the Footwear Innovation team for nine years, has taken the helm — just one of the many recent creative strategy changes bringing increased optimism at Nike. As of the time of writing, an official release date and MSRP for the Nike Air Max Phenomena have not been revealed. Stay tuned to Hypebeast for updates.

Expected to drop in Summer 2025, this silhouette, born from the brand's exploration into hybrid designs, takes the controversial yet captivating sneaker-loafer fusion to a dazzling new level. It's a clear signal that New Balance isn't shying away from bold statements, instead embracing a 'loud and proud' philosophy. It drapes the upper in a glossy, vibrant pink leather, described as 'glossier than your favorite lip gloss,' ensuring this loafer-sneaker hybrid will turn heads. This audacious main color is intelligently balanced by supporting tones of mauve on the straps, salmon mesh, and subtle beige underlays, providing a nuanced contrast that keeps the overall look from veering into one-dimensional territory. A grey heel cage adds structural definition, while a black outsole keeps the flamboyant upper grounded, literally and figuratively.
