Blue Nike Presto Shoes & Sneakers

Looking for a pair of Nike Presto blue sneakers? First, let’s go back in time to 1996 when Nike’s senior director of athlete innovation, Tobie Hatfield, found his muse for the Air Presto. Hatfield came up with a unique shoe design that included a low ankle notch for added flexibility and increased comfort. The legendary footwear developer fixated on this novel approach and realized it was the answer to a focus group’s seemingly impossible request: supportive athletic footwear with the slip-on comfort and ease of slippers. Find these innovative kicks right now at Hibbett | City Gear in blue colorways.

After going through countless prototypes and iterations to find just the right notch depth within a functional, supportive shoe, Hatfield paired that notch with spacer mesh uppers at the turn of the millennium. This breathable, ridiculously stretchy fabric was just what Hatfield was looking for. He delivered the same comfort fit of that first V-notch prototype with Nike’s superior support and design.

The innovative support, fit and comfort of the Presto has become one of Nike’s most popular running shoes. Combine that with catchy crowdsourcing for the name and you’ve got a cornerstone of fashion-forward style and performance footwear.
