Nike Daybreak SP Blue Void Diffused Blue

Nike Daybreak SP Blue Void Diffused Blue — the 1979 running shoe reinvented

The Nike Daybreak was created in 1979 with American runner Joan Benoit in mind, combining a lightweight nylon and suede upper with a design intended for long distances. Four decades later, Nike brings back this classic from the archives for everyday use, maintaining its low and minimalist silhouette. This SP Blue Void Diffused Blue version dresses the model in a palette of overlapping blues that gives it a contemporary feel without losing its retro-running essence.

Daybreak — Nike’s running DNA since 1979

The silhouette is supported by the waffle sole developed by Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman, who was inspired by a waffle iron to create a pattern that improved traction on running shoes in the 70s. In this colorway, the Blue Void and Diffused Blue tones are distributed between the upper and overlays, creating a subtle gradient that highlights the model’s typical layered construction.

Materials and technology

• Upper: combination of nylon and suede in Blue Void and Diffused Blue tones, faithful to the original 1979 construction.
• Interior: lightweight textile lining that prioritizes breathability, inherited from the silhouette’s running design.
• Sole: rubber waffle sole inspired by Bill Bowerman’s design, designed to offer traction and lightness.
