Known as a pioneering Nike silhouette, the Daybreak arrives 30 years later with modern updates while staying true to the original silhouette. The simplistic style composed of a white nylon base with cream suede overlays are nicely contrasted by bright red Swooshes on the sides. More Nike branding are prominent on the tongue labels, insoles and heel tabs, while a sail foam midsole and black Waffle-bottom outsole solidifies the design.
