The Nike Internationalist was the go-to runner of the '80s. More than three decades later, the sneaker made famous for distance running still continues to flourish. The latest iteration of the vintage runner gets a modern update with a Lunarlon outsole and serves as the base for Japanese label SOPH's latest Nike collaboration.
The sneaker features a predominantly black upper that's constructed of a matte leather base and premium ostrich overlays that take over the heel counter, toe wrap, and eyestay. SOPH went all-out luxe on this one, and if not for the contrasting white woven tongue label, the upper would sport a completely murdered-out vibe. Underneath the high-quality leather paneling is a solid white Lunarlon midsole for crazy cushioning and superior responsiveness.
Be sure to make room in your current rotation of runners and cop a pair of these Internationalists on Nike Store for just $115 with free shipping.
