The Nike Pocket Fly silhouette is inspired by classic retro running designs and the Nike Pocket Knife model. This combination gives rise to a current sneaker with minimalist design and very simple color combinations, where basic colors like gray, black and red are the ones that are most present in their models. Of its design we have to highlight its Knit fabric for the upper, which is quite tight offering a great feeling of comfort around the foot. In this part of the shoe we also find synthetic suede in the toe and heel with reinforcement function. Undoubtedly we are talking about an upper with a fantastic quality that offers a great feeling of elasticity and breathability for the foot.

First of all, this sneaker has a distinctive touch with its four-grooved foam midsole. Another important aspect is the absence of a classic tongue, since this is part of a single piece formed by the upper. The lace-up closure is simple and contemporary, featuring rounded laces and a spaced crossover. To improve breathability, the same perforations have been used as in the Nike Air Max 270.
One of the most striking points about these Sneakers is their midsole and cushioning. It is composed of deep and flexible grooves that allow the foot to move in a more natural way. This cushioning system reminds us of the capsule cushioning system of the Nike Air Vapormax, although the rubber outsole of the Pocket Fly is much harder, which gives it more durability and a more classic traction, very different from the previous model mentioned above.
