Union LA will once again be teaming up with Nike for another footwear collaboration that’s slated to debut during the upcoming summer season. According to Brendan Dunne of Complex, we can expect a Union x Nike Field General collab to drop in the coming months.
The Union x Nike Field General Pack will include three colorways of the Field General model. For those not too familiar with the model, the Field General is an athletic shoe that dates back all the way to 1982 that was initially made for football players. This collab with Union will also mark the first time the Field General gets the retro treatment since its initial launch in the early 80s. Below you will get a first look at the ?Shimmer/Silt Red? colorway of the Union x Nike Field General and we;re here to tell you that it looks nothing like the OG design. While OG pairs of the Field General were characterized by its mesh base and leather overlays, this Union iteration of the model is defined by the mix of materials used on the upper. Opting for a much more lifestyle approach, the layered detailing arrives in an earthy brown and tan color scheme along with hits of pink found throughout. Other details include heel tabs, an external heel counter, Union LA tags, co-branded midsoles and a unique looking top eyelet that is also part of a textile strip that rises from the heel. A waffle-style traction pattern on the outsole complete the look.
The Union x Nike Field General Pack has not been given an official release date, but we do expect them to debut sometime during the upcoming summer season. Stay tuned as this story develops.
