The Nike Air Rift, introduced in 1996, was created using insights gathered from barefoot long-distance runners. The May 2015 release of the 'Concord' variation prioritizes natural movement with its knitted color block upper and split-toe innovation. Lightweight containment is achieved through midfoot and heel straps. The Air midsole cushioning and distinctive outsole tread design are meticulously optimized for all-terrain activities.
