Since 1998, the Nike TNs in NZ have been in demand

The Nike Tuned is hard to beat due to its uncommonly extravagant yet aggressive style. First introduced in 1998 by running shoe designer Sean McDowell when the AMP version was released on the market, TN shoes quickly became a trending cult object in France, Europe and here at home in New Zealand.

Utilising next-gen support, Nike’s Tuned Air System caused quite a stir, allowing air movements in the midsole to insulate and absorb impact when stepping off during a run or energetic walk. This innovative technique, which provided excellent impact protection and premium cushioning made the first version of the TNs in NZ so famous.

 

Nike Tuned: Sean McDowell was inspired by the sunset

The first and OG iteration of the TNs didn’t stay — constantly evolving in countless design variations and endless colour combinations. When it comes to colour assortment, virtually any combination of colours is available with the Nike TNs in NZ, leaving you spoiled for choice to experiment with your athletic and streetwear. The Nike TN Air colour scheme Hyper Blue functions as a state-of-the-art yet timeless design. McDowell was inspired by the Florida sunset for this variant of Nike TNs. The black stripes that are reminiscent of the silhouettes of palm trees characterise the Nike TN in Hyper Blue. The Nike TN Trainers are also available in bright blue.

 

Nike Tuned 1 — cool, retro trainers that stand out from the crowd
