Nike and Bandai Namco are adding another gem to their “Fist Meets Fate” collection with a fresh TEKKEN 8 x Nike Air Foamposite One sneaker. We’ve already been introduced to the Kazuya Mishima-inspired pair, but now, the duo has unveiled a new design that truly amps up the competition.
A Closer Look at the Sneaker
This iteration of the TEKKEN 8 x Nike Air Foamposite One spotlights the franchise’s iconic protagonist, Jin Kazama. Its sleek white Foam shell, accentuated with lightning motifs, pays homage to Jin’s legendary electric powers. Additionally, the black leather eyestays are a subtle tribute to his distinctive style, while the dark grey sole features the striking word “FATE” imprinted underneath.
Naturally, the sneaker arrives in the same stunning Tekken-themed box that we saw with the “Kazuya Mishima” edition. This distinctive packaging, adorned with game artwork and a middle-split design, transforms the unboxing experience into something truly special for any sneakerhead or Tekken fan.
As for the digital realm, these kicks will make a cameo in TEKKEN 8 in Fall, allowing gamers to outfit their characters in these stylish sneakers. So, if these kicks aren’t already on your radar, they absolutely should be!
