Nike Air Rift Bleached Lilac Flowers (Women's)

Nike Air Rift 'Bleached Lilac Flowers', also known as 'Florette', gives the distinctive split-toe silhouette a delicate floral finish. The model grew out of Nike's running experiments in the 1990s, drawing inspiration from barefoot long-distance runners in Kenya. Its name references the Great Rift Valley, while the separation between the big toe and the remaining toes remains its defining design feature. This women's edition pairs those sporting roots with a pale lilac colourway and leather flowers across the forefoot and sides of the upper. Silver rivets at their centres add small touches of shine.

The full-grain leather upper has a smooth finish that lets the dimensional floral appliqués stand out. Deep cut-outs leave part of the foot exposed, combining a closed toe with an open, sandal-like shape. Hook-and-loop straps across the midfoot and at the heel make the shoes easy to put on and allow you to adjust the fit without laces. Underfoot, a plush foam midsole works with Nike Air cushioning in the heel to soften everyday steps. A rubber outsole with a pronounced tread adds traction and durability to complete the design.
