The Nike Air Kukini Appears in Zebra and Abstract Prints

Very few silhouettes possess the audacity of the Nike Air Kukini with the silhouette often delivered in colorways equal to its avant-garde design. Though it welcomed a return to the market in a fairly timid fashion last year, the silhouette is kicking things off for 2023 in flamboyant style, with not one, but two striking graphic-print pairs — the second of which we’ll take a look at here.

Staying on theme with the recently-revealed “Bright Cactus” colorway, this release retains zebra prints across its upper, albeit more simplified and in monochrome to allow extra abstract patterns to present. Specks of orange are worked into the print, while light lemons are introduced at the collar and tongue for contrast. Smokey cage overlays and TPU tubing then cover the top half, with a classic white and gum sole unit sitting underfoot to complete the design.

A release for this new Nike Air Kukini has just gone down on Nike US, with pairs available now for $140.
