Diggs’s pair follows the same format, but features grid-printed underlays that come coated with a fine mesh on top. Purple-toned iridescent accents hit the tongue and heel tabs, which set the stage for the F&F-specific details. Here, the word ‘Family’ hits the tongue on the right sneaker, while GEL-Nimbus 10 branding hits the left.

The shoe was confirmed to be a Friends and Family exclusive at the Fashion Week Pop-Up, but the GEL-Nimbus 10.1 silhouette is expected to hit shelves very soon.
