Last year’s 20th anniversary celebrations brought about an renaissance that isn’t letting up. The retro runner has been restyled with Ultra tech to strip it of weight while bestowing a streamlined design. And no other colourway complements its sleekness quite like all-black.

It'll work with anything in your wardrobe, conceal scuffs, make your friends jealous - yep, it's pretty close to flawless. Everything from the ripple-inspired uppers to Air-packed midsole has been dipped in the inkwell — it’s a mean look, and one you can snap up on January 26 from JD Sports locations Down Under.
