The Nike Air Foamposite One returns in the legendary "Cough Drop" colorway that has sneakerheads across the community talking. August 15 marks the comeback of one of the most sought-after Foamposite releases ever created, bringing that iconic translucent red outsole back to the streets.

"Cough Drop" Details: A Closer Look at This Standout Foamposite

The semi-translucent red "Cough Drop" outsole steals the show on this release. The signature translucent rubber creates an unmistakable presence with every step, earning its nickname from the resemblance to actual cough drops. The deep red hue provides the perfect pop of color that Foam fans crave.

Carbon fiber detailing adds premium touches throughout the design. The shank plate provides structural support while contributing to the shoe's futuristic aesthetic. What makes this particular colorway stand out in the Foamposite line is its perfect balance of boldness and wearability.
