Nike first reintroduced the LD-1000 runner to their catalog last Summer, and have been quietly pushing simple new colors of the low-profile model. This week, a new special edition “Bandana” paisley pack has surfaced, coming soon.
Nike’s LD-1000 originally launched in 1977, and was marketed as a huge leap in running innovations. The shoe used their patented Waffle outsole technology for traction, and featured a wide, flare heel that was intended for stability and traction for road runners. However, the silhouette was recalled, for actually causing more injuries than it prevented. Over the years, Nike has used the iconic silhouette as a reference point for many releases, including sacai’s beloved LDWaffle. Now, the model has returned as a simple lifestyle trainer.
Since its return early in Summer 2024, the LD-1000 has been issued in a range of simple color schemes, as well as several pairs designed in collaboration with Stussy. This season, nike is upping the ante with a special-edition two-piece “Bandana” pack, featuring two colors with a paisley pattern printed across the upper. The first pair comes in Mosswood Brown, with the second in a dark Team Red shade. Both feature white Swooshes, tongues, and midsoles, and tonal suede heel and toe caps to complete the look.
