Nike’s Monarch 2.0, the M2K Tekno, is no stranger to new fabrications as prior releases have used diverse sets of swatches that completely outdo past iterations. Now arriving in a set that’s reminiscent of the ever-classic denim material, the pair is touching on retro themes and adding that final piece to a much darker Canadian Tuxedo puzzle. A yellow weft shines underneath the black dyed yarns of the twill, weaving in a much brighter tone that gives the model an earth toned appearance upon first glance. Sole units are left white, adding a bit of lightness, with swooshes, pull tabs, and hard shell panels complimenting in their bold hue.
