The Nike Offline Stone Mauve released at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and was dubbed the "anti-sneaker" by Nike when it was first introduced. The company encouraged people to put on a pair of Nike Offlines when they needed to "recharge" from their daily grind. Each pair of Nike Offlines came with two different drop-in midsoles that could be worn interchangeably. They have small nubs that were strategically positioned near foot pressure points to provide people with a "massage-like experience" when they put them on. These shoes also included tongues with plenty of padding and straps that has cushioning placed underneath them. In our expert opinion, Nike’s outside-the-box thinking with this shoe design helped set them apart from other shoes that were made for kicking back and relaxing. The Nike Offline Stone Mauve was released on 16th December 2020 for a retail price of $120.
