Nike is gearing up for Valentine’s Day with a clever twist on the Killshot 2, a silhouette that has always balanced simplicity and throwback flair. This time, the brand is going floral—literally. Across the neutral canvas, you’ll spot doodle-like blossoms in crisp red, along with slim green stems, adding a dash of romance without veering into cliché. Meanwhile, suede overlays at the toe and eyelets keep it slightly retro, and that trusty black Swoosh anchors the whole look. A gum outsole rounds everything off, nodding to the shoe’s longstanding appeal.
Nike has been busy lately. After partnering with Tiffany & Co. in 2023 and rolling out more eco-conscious materials across some of its biggest collections, the sportswear giant seems ready to fuse its classic DNA with a more playful edge. The Killshot 2 “Floral” arrives right in time for the season of hearts, making it a sweet piece of footwear to pair with, well, anything. It’s a low-key love letter to those who want a hint of whimsy in their closet—no laces of frills required.
