Landing as an updated slice of UK sneaker heritage, the Nike Shox TL Chrome is landing with a stealthy steez. Sure, the model definitely draws resemblance to previous Shox (see 2019’s ‘White’ colourway), but real sneaker connoisseurs will know that the Chrome offering stands in a league of its own. Originally released back in 2003 by designer Bruce Kilgore, the Shox TL set the bar high with a distinctive silhouette – not intended to blend in. Boasting an oversized mesh construction and 12 pillars of comfort; the sneaker quickly became an icon within London’s grime subculture, despite its original basketball-based intentions. Since then, the shoe has endured collaborations with names like Skepta and Martine Rose, maintaining its authentic essence throughout. Let’s take a look at the Chrome offering at hand…
Just like its predecessors, this silhouette’s construction maintains everything we love about the Shox TL. Flaunting a mesh upper alongside the classic TPU caging, the shoe opts for a crisp white exterior throughout aside stealthy metallic hits. Soft leather panelling within the front and back emphasises the icy flair of these kicks, also reflected within the ‘Silver Metallic’ Swoosh. Of course, it’s not a pair of Shox without the intricate pillars, keeping unparalleled comfort and ease wherever you choose to step.
The Nike Shox TL Chrome is anticipated to drop some time in DECEMBER ’23, via NIKE SNKRS & SELECTED RETAILERS. While you await the drop, shop the latest Nike sneakers below…
