It's the sneaker we've always dreamed of! For weeks, Jacquemus has been teasing a sneaker as part of their collaboration with Nike, and today that sneaker has finally arrived.
Since teasing the collaboration way back when in 2020 with sneak peeks here and there, gold Nike ticks built into slinky straps, cream thigh high socks, we always knew it would be a winning collaboration. Now, the Nike X Jacquemus sneaker has finally been revealed, and it's tonal heaven for all of the beige girlies.

On June 13, via the brands Instagram account, Simon Porte Jacquemus posted on Instagram asking his followers if they'd like to see the first Jacquemus x Nike sneaker. Every man and their dog said yes, obviously, and less than 24 hours later, their requests were met. As part of the upcoming Le Papier collection, the new sneaker plays on Nike’s signature Humara silhouette and features a subtle gum sole with a suede and leather upper, complete with a miniature gold Nike Swoosh on the side. Available in tonal beige and dark brown colourways, both sneakers are finished with accents of black and contrasting panels, leaning into the hot hiking energy Jacquemus has been riffing on for the past couple of seasons.
Speaking on the collaboration, in a press release Simon Porte Jacquemus said, "For this collaboration with Nike, I wanted to create a collection that reinterprets athletic women’s sportswear in a minimal way," he announced. "I have always been inspired by vintage ACG pieces and Nike campaigns from the ’90s. Having this imagery in mind, we designed women’s athletic wear with sensuous details and neutral colors, along with my own interpretation of the Humara — my favorite Nike shoe. It was important for the collection to be accessible, for all bodies, and to be a natural blend of Jacquemus style and Nike performance," he continued.
