Nike Air Rift

The Nike Air Rift premiered in 1995 and was a hit with both the bohemian and the nightclub crowds. This unusual split toed shoe was originally designed for the Kenyan runners who were accustomed to running barefoot but were required to have footwear at many events.

The Nike Air Rift offers lightweight flexibilty and comfort which enhances control and balance. The original colourway used the colours of the Kenyan national flag(black,green and red) . The split toe feature took influence from the Japanese ninjas who used to wear boots with same design.
