Nike Gakou Flyknit

Nike's latest customizable sneaker is not a model that's available for purchase on NIKEiD, but one that comes with a bare bones upper and a pack of stencils encouraging the buyer to have their way with the shoe. The Nike Gakou Flyknit seen here releases on Aug. 24.

According to Nike, this model emerged from the brand's Special Projects design team. The silhouette, which is akin to the Aqua Sock and Sock Racer, has a Flyknit upper, suede on the heel, and a Free-inspired outsole.

Each pair comes with rubber stencils of the Nike Futura logo and the Swoosh that wearers can place wherever they like.
