Since its debut, Nike Air Tailwind 79 Phantom White has become the most celebrated colorway in the Nike catalog. Dressed in phantom dark gray at the mudguard, heel counter, and throat, with a black outsole and Swoosh, and white mesh netting at the vamp and quarter panel, this sneaker features white shoelaces and a black heel notch. It contains 3M Scotchlite material at the upper and rubber at the outsole. The Tailwind 79 Phantom White draws inspiration from the classic runner aesthetic of the 1970s, featuring a Phantom White-based mesh upper with matching suede overlays, a padded tongue for comfort, black leather details, and a waffle pattern on the outsole for superior traction.
