The Nike Air Rift 2 "Kenya" are the iconic split-toe that reissue the American giant's archive with a touch of experimentalism with exotic appeal.
The technical soul of this release is contained in the name Kenya, a nod to the origins of the Rift series and Nike's long tradition of drawing inspiration from legendary Kenyan long-distance runners. Made with a mesh upper, the Nike Air Rift 2 Kenya blends the natural depth of dark green with red details, such as the Swoosh on the forefoot. The perforated and textured side panels wink at the futuristic design of the early 2000s, recalling purely feminine cult silhouettes such as the famous Air SuperFly.
Compared to the first version, the Air Rift 2 evolves to offer superior performance and stability while keeping its lightweight soul intact. The silhouette boasts a fuller shape and a thicker, more structured outsole than before. The Air cushioning embedded in the heel ensures impact comfort while delivering an exceptionally lightweight feel.
