Aritzia x Nike LD-1000 “Fauna Brown” Expected Soon

Nike and Aritzia are teaming up for their first footwear collaboration, spotlighting the Nike LD-1000 in a refined “Fauna Brown” colorway. Teased earlier this week through Aritzia’s official channels, the collab channels both brands’ minimalist aesthetic and design-driven approach, marking a sophisticated evolution of Nike’s retro runner.

The Aritzia x Nike LD-1000 “Fauna Brown” arrives dressed in rich brown leather across the upper, replacing the model’s traditional nylon base for a more elevated, fashion-forward finish. A muted Swoosh and gum sole complement the tonal look, while exposed stitching and a deconstructed tongue retain the silhouette’s heritage running DNA. The result is a versatile design that merges streetwear and studio polish — an ideal crossover between Aritzia’s understated sensibility and Nike’s archival innovation.

Expected to release on October 21 for $125, the “Fauna Brown” will reportedly be available via Aritzia’s website and select Nike channels. While the LD-1000 has made waves this year through a series of modern reinterpretations, this collaboration underscores the model’s adaptability and rising popularity within lifestyle and fashion circles.

Stay tuned for confirmed details and official campaign imagery from Aritzia and Nike in the days ahead.
