Nike Air Humara x Jacquemus
"Light Bone"
DR0420-001
This collaborative version of the Nike Air Humara came about in 2022 as the result of a compelling new partnership between the athletic apparel brand and luxury French fashion label Jacquemus. Chosen by the brand’s founder, Simon Porte Jacquemus, as it was always his favorite Nike design, the Humara was reinterpreted with creative touches that brought a high-fashion update to the classic 90s silhouette. Its trail running heritage was not forgotten either, as many of the outdoor-focused features of the original model were retained, making this a sophisticated blend of Jacquemus’ boundless creativity and Nike’s footwear expertize.
Style abounds across this refined Nike Air Humara x Jacquemus sneaker thanks to a combination of fine materials and majestic detailing. Its color scheme has an understated elegance achieved by the use of neutral tones such as Light Bone and Sail together with more opulent hues including mahogany and gold. These deliver a rich esthetic that serves to elevate the design. Ornate lacing then wraps gracefully around the heel, and diminutive golden swooshes punctuate each flank. Meanwhile, exclusive branding highlights the premium leather outer in the form of subtly debossed Jacquemus lettering, and a layer of white suede coats the midsole, thus completing this classy Air Humara with a luxurious flourish.
Created by innovative designer and out-of-the-box thinker Peter Fogg in 1997, the Air Humara was originally made as a technically proficient trail running shoe for use in difficult terrain and harsh weather. Today, it is experiencing a stunning renaissance as a sporty lifestyle model with a strong esthetic that delivers high levels of comfort whatever the conditions.
