A new sneaker collaboration between American artist Tom Sachs and Nike may be on the way.
Bill Powers, founder of Half Gallery in New York City, has shared an image of Sachs’ unreleased Mars Yard 2.5 shoe on Instagram.
The latest pair features a similar aesthetic to prior Mars Yard styles. The 2.5 features a mid-cut upper with rip-stop mesh that’s paired with suede overlays, while red Swoosh branding adorns the sides. What separates the previous styles from this latest variation is the black rubber toe cap that appears to be connected to the outsole.
Sachs and Nike first released a Mars Yard shoe in May 2012 following his interactions with NASA scientists. Five years later, the duo introduced the Mars Yard 2.0, which dropped exclusively to fans who completed the “Space Camp” experience in either New York or London.
