As reported by Complex Sneakers in September, Nike is reissuing the classic Mac Attack sneaker for the first time ever this year. One of the releases includes a collaborative colorway with sneaker boutique Social Status.
Newly leaked images from @kicksdong on Instagram show a sample version of the Social Status x Nike Mac Attack collab. The Nike Mac Attack is a tennis sneaker originally made for tennis legend John McEnroe in 1984, but has not seen the light of day since its original release. Social Status’ version wears a two-tone black and grey makeup with yellow tongue branding.
Social Status is a boutique owned by The Whitaker Group founder James Whitner and has released a handful of sneaker projects with the Swoosh over the years.
At the time of writing, this Social Status x Nike Mac Attack collab is slated to drop in May, but it’s possible that the release could shift. Keep it locked to Sole Collector for official updates.
