I find the Nike rifts very compelling! I’ve never pulled the trigger for some reason but I always think they look great when I see them in the wild. & the sandy liang pair you linked are great imo. I think they’ll introduce a lot of options!
They’re one of those pieces I think are really cool, but also they feel so specific to this point in time with the Mary Jane and gorpcore crazes being so real. Unless that kind of aesthetic feels super “you” and you’ll wear it beyond the current trend cycle, I see it being short lived IMO! (Not to be a Debbie downer lol, just been having to ask myself these questions a lot lately with all the intense microtrends 🫠)
I feel like ‘a universal shift towards hope’ is massively tone-deaf given the awful, racist riots happening this week after the Southport stabbing. I get that you will have probably drafted this before it happened, and maybe I’m just being over-sensitive because I’m from the North West, but that made me feel sick.

Same here, I always love when people wear them! Idk if I’ll jump though

Ah gosh I hadn’t considered the Southport riots, I’m so sorry. What’s happened there is absolutely awful, I’ve been thinking about it every day 🤍
