Andrew Rizzo Hit the streets and you’ll find myriad shoes being worn independent of elements they were designed for. Even in the most urban landscapes, trail shoes and other outdoor-minded footwear varieties have soared in popularity in recent years. Several Nike ACG models appeal to the trend, but with summer on the horizon, it’s prime season for the sub-brand’s biggest anomaly; the Nike ACG Watercat+.
Nike re-introduced consumers to the mid-2000s water shoe last year through a slate of Summer/Fall releases, but not before reworking the tooling for a more modern feel suitable for lifestyle wear. While it might never reached mainstream consciousness due to its unescapable water shoe identity, the Watercat+ has found a welcoming audience within the growing “gorpcore” niche. Of course, the Watercat+ still meets the demands of aquatic footwear through its woven upper and grippy tread, presenting a suitable pick-up for those who actually turn to Nike ACG for its weatherproofing benefits. Most pairs feature a splash of color up top and white/black sole below, this red-dominant one included.
The shoes don’t have a release date yet, but all indications point to a Summer/Fall 2024 drop for $125. Enjoy official images below and tap our Sneaker Release Dates page for updates over the coming months.
