Nike M2K Tekno WMNS 'Phantom/Oil Grey/Matte Silver/Hyper Crimson' AO3108 001 (Pair)

Last week, we previewed what Nike has planned for its updated Monarch model this fall, but fans of the modified dad shoe look won't have to wait much longer.

Officially known as the M2K Tekno, the sneaker will arrive in a "'Phantom/Oil Grey/Matte Silver/Hyper Crimson" women's colorway next month. The M2K Tekno carries over the overall profile of the original Air Monarch 4, but rearranges the paneling and updates the midsole for an even more on-trend look. 

This style was first seen in John Elliott's fall/winter '18 New York Fashion Week showing and combines an off-white leather upper with a bright crimson heel cup and an outsole that's segmented into a grey forefoot and black heel.

Like it's men's counterpart, the women's M2K Tekno will retail for $100 when this colorway drops at select retailers on Saturday, May 5.
