The Nike Air Rift made its debut in 1996. This Nike model gets its inspiration from the barefoot style of Kenya’s distance runners. One of the model’s most popular colorways was the Kenya iteration. For 2023, Nike Sportswear will be bringing back the OG “Kenya” colorway.
The Nike Air Rift in the Kenya colorway comes dressed in a Black, Forest Green, White, and Atom Red color scheme as a nod to the colors of the Kenya flag. It comes constructed with a textile mesh upper that provides a stretch fit with its signature split-toe design. Other notable details include the two Velcro closures on the heel and midfoot. It is given a Green base with Black overlays that is then highlighted with Red contrasting accents on the insole and branded areas. Completing the look is a White midsole atop a Black rubber outsole.
