Vaporwaffle Sacai Black Gum

Sacai and Nike continue their deconstructed partnership with the Vaporwaffle in Black Gum — a hybrid silhouette that layers running heritage with Chitose Abe's avant-garde vision. This iteration strips back to essential tones while maintaining the doubled-up DNA that defines the collaboration.

Black nylon and suede panels overlap across the upper, creating Sacai's signature layered aesthetic with dual Swooshes and stacked midsole tooling. The gum rubber outsole grounds the monochromatic build with warm contrast, while doubled laces and tongue tabs maintain the deconstructed philosophy that made the original Vaporwaffle a statement piece.

A refined entry point into Sacai's Nike universe — accessible enough for newcomers but detailed enough for those who've followed the partnership since the original Vaporwaffle drops redefined hybrid design.
