Spectoo is a sub-line rather than a colourway, built on a lighter upper that mixes textile with open mesh and layers its structure on top as no-sew film instead of stitched panels. The overlays here are metallic silver, which on a Cloud White base shows up as a change in sheen more than a change in colour, and they are cut into angular shapes across the midfoot and toe.
Text-based graphics and a semi-translucent patch over the heel add to the technical look, the patch letting the layer beneath show through rather than covering it. Core Black handles the small details, holding the palette to white, silver and black. Below, the familiar full-length Boost midsole is finished in white with inserts embedded in the sidewall, the one element tying this back to the original silhouette. Built in women's sizing, it released December 6, 2020 at $150, twenty dollars over the plain knit model of that winter. The outsole keeps the segmented rubber layout.
