These Futuristic Nike Sneakerboots Are Perfect For Wet Winter Weather

Puddle love.

POSTED BY DEE CUNNING

Every discerning sneakerhead will know the pain of having to stash away their favorite sneaks come winter. With the sidewalks a mush of decomposing leaves and dog turds and the weather more unpredictable than your love life, you can forget about wearing that bubblegum-pink brushed suede pair today, sweetie. Luckily for us, however, there is one saving grace: the sneakerboot. The hybrid shoe has all the comfort, breathability and streetwear appeal of the sneaker, with the ankle-hugging warmth and the grippy tread of the boot. We've picked out two fantastically futuristic Nike pairs that get the balance spot-on.

 

Nike Black Air Presto Mid Utility Premium

The Nike Air Presto Mid Utility shoe updates the original for wet weather with a water-resistant textile upper. Its mid-cut profile is easy to slip in and out of thanks to a side zipper, while the iconic midfoot cage provides support.

Shop it here for $220.

 

Nike Black Air Footscape Mid Utility Sneaker

The Nike Air Footscape NM gets a bold redesign, re-imagining the sneaker into a rugged mid-top silhouette in a Huarache-esque style. The shoe is constructed with a leather body, textile collar and rubberized material around the mudgard for wet weather protection.

Shop it here for $220.
