Nike Air Presto Triple Black Review

I think we can all agree 2015 was definitely Adidas’s year, with a string of sell out successes (Ultra Boost, Yeezy Boosts and Solebox collaborations to name a few) however Nike have been playing catch-up in 2016. After a series of good AF1 releases they’ve moved on to the sneaker, namely the Nike Air Presto’s.

These shoes offer a refreshing look with some unusual materials but I can still see influence from Adidas, especially around the side. I decided to try Nike ID and customise them, I wanted to try and replicate the Yeezy Boost Pirate Blacks, with the black main and grey(ish) laces. The Presto’s cost around £120 in total (from Nike ID), which are obviously much cheaper than a pair of Yeezy’s second hand – the quality and comfort however, comes second to Adidas. These are a great pair of every day shoes and look good with some tracksuit bottoms but they lack the styling of the Adidas equivalent.

I took a comparison photo at the end to show the difference between the Nike Air Presto’s and the Pirate Black Yeezy Boosts.
