The fighting game community welcomed Tekken 8 at the beginning of the year, with it selling over two million copies in its first month, outpacing its predecessor. Now, a new type of excitement surrounds the beloved franchise as Nike has just revealed a Tekken 8-themed Air Foamposite One. The silhouette is already being embraced this year thanks to its upcoming COMME des GARÇONS HOMME PLUS project and the return of the “Galaxy” look in 2025, reinforcing the idea that the Swoosh is eager to bring the design back into the spotlight.
An iridescent shell kicks off the look, with a thematic print covering the shiny finish. From there, black arrives at the leather eyestays, laces and tongue. Special Tekken motifs enter the mix at the tongue and sockliner branding, while a red “FIST” graphic adorns the icy translucent outsole. That’s not all — a special box featuring the game’s cover art of Kazuya Mishima and Jin Kazama is included too.
At the time of writing, Nike has not confirmed when this Tekken 8-themed take on the Air Foamposite One will be releasing. Stay tuned for updates as we currently expect it to arrive this September via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $250 USD.
