Few things in sneaker culture are more intriguing than the current adoration of the Air Monarch<\/a>. Everyone’s favorite “dad shoe” that has seen more 10am laps around the mall than a security guard, is new and hot again. The culture that surrounds the Monarch is largely to credit, popularizing chunky retro designs from the late ’80s and early ’90s.<\/p>\n Cambridge-based Concepts Creative Director Deon Point recently alluded to an Air Monarch<\/strong> collaboration on his Instagram and also gave a slight preview of the shoe. Then, last night, Jordan Brand’s Frank Cooker vindicated the collaborative style in its entirety.<\/p>\n Predominately dressed in an all-black upper, the midsole appears in white atop a sporty gum outer. A Concepts hang tag is seen near the heel while co-branding marks the shoe’s tongue. And while this exciting Concepts x Nike Air Monarch<\/strong> shoe would be the perfect bow to tie up 2017, its future is extremely uncertain.<\/p>\n Point was recently a guest on Sole Collector<\/a>‘s Full Size Run and alluded to the shoe’s completion in extremely limited numbers. Yet he went on to express that the shoe may or may not release — in limbo so to speak. Would you cop given a release?<\/p>\n
