Solange Knowles fronts the new Nike x Jacquemus campaign, introducing fresh Moon Shoe colourways that revisit an early Nike running silhouette through Simon Porte Jacquemus’ sculptural and sensual lens.
An archival runner returns with a renewed presence. In the latest collaboration between Nike and Jacquemus, Solange Knowles becomes the face of the Moon Shoe campaign, bringing her multidisciplinary aura to a design rooted in Nike’s early running history.
Simon Porte Jacquemus discovered the Moon Shoe during a visit to the Nike archives three years ago. Its stripped back construction suggested the possibility of reinterpreting an iconic silhouette through the designer’s own visual language. The updated version keeps the ruched nylon upper that shapes the sneaker’s gathered texture and a Nike Grind outsole that forms the base of the construction. Slightly elongated proportions introduce a subtle ballet influence that shifts the shoe away from traditional performance footwear toward a more sculptural object.
This release arrives in three colourways: brown, Sail and pale pink, a tone closely associated with the Jacquemus universe for the softness and intimacy it brings to the silhouette. The Moon Shoe is now available through Jacquemus stores and online, while the brown and Sail editions will launch on March 16 through Nike’s SNKRS platform and selected Nike retail locations.
