Is the “snoafer” category growing too crowded? We’ll save our editorial judgment on the topic for a later date, but what we will do is enumerate how many brands have some sort of representative in the category: the Jordan Loafer Mule, the HOKA Speed Loafer, the New Balance 1906L, the PUMA “Loafyr.” Only adding to the madness is the fact that Nike has two in that group, one upcoming with the help of Air Afrique and one closer to an inline proposition with the SWDC-assisted Air Max Phenomena.

Now, the silhouette steps forth with classic black leather and a metallic gold Swoosh. Our more astute readers will note that this isn’t the first time we’re catching a black leather Air Max Phenomena colorway. Indeed, this is a rather simple flip of an already established colorway, with the gilded details and lack of Serena branding the only real distinguishing factor. In the latter’s place, a reduplication of the “Swoosh Air” hardware defines the insole.

Look for the Nike Air Max Phenomena “Black/Metallic Gold” populating Nike.com in the coming weeks, retailing for $165.
