Nike is teaming up with Swarovski for its latest collaboration, and let me just say that the result is everything you'd expect and more. The brand reimagined its classic Women's Air VaporMax Flyknit 2, which was first introduced in 2018. For the first time ever, Nike used classic hand-beading techniques — like those used on couture gowns — to apply 1,000 Swarovski crystals to the sneaker. Another cool fact? The crystals were purposefully placed on the upper to refract light. The kicks will retail for $500 and will be available on Nike.com starting March 15. Read on to see all angles of the sparkly sneakers.
