Nike ISPA Road Warrior Sail Multicolor

The Nike ISPA Road Warrior Sail may be the most complex design that Nike has ever released to the public. The silhouette is almost like a sneak peek inside of Nike’s innovation lab, referencing specs that range from basketball, running, training, to outdoor apparel. In what is a very concept-driven focus, the ISPA Road Warrior features a sail knit-patched upper with a rubber cage overlay donning buckles and straps across the forefoot. Double-stacked Air Zoom Pods in the forefoot reference the AlphaFly Next% running shoe while an open floating heel draws inspiration from early Nike Shox prototypes. For stability, Nike reimagined the classic Japanese tabi work boot and implemented a split-toe structure in the upper. The ISPA Road Warrior released in July of 2020 and retailed for $500 USD.
