Originally a women's-exclusive shoe, the Nike M2K Tekno was designed as a fresh take on the classic Air Monarch sneaker, a classic 'dad shoe.' This iteration, released in October 2018, comes in mens' sizing and incorporates a Parisian-inspired color palette. Its upper is layered with genuine and synthetic leather, reinforced by a sturdy heel clip at the rear. The shoe's chunky midsole is made from lightweight Phylon foam, capped by a non-marking rubber outsole.
