Nike LD-1000 "Vast Grey Blue Lagoon" HJ4687-001

The Nike LD-1000 “Vast Grey Blue Lagoon” brings a heritage runner into the present, staying true to its 1977 roots while adding just enough modern edge. Originally created to support long-distance runners, the LD-1000 became known for its dramatically flared heel—an eye-catching detail that’s made a strong return in this updated version.

The upper is built using a mix of lightweight mesh and smooth leather overlays. This pairing balances breathability with structure, giving the shoe its classic shape while making it suitable for everyday wear. The colourway leans subtle, with Vast Grey covering most of the base, while Blue Lagoon accents on the Swoosh and heel tab add a splash of colour. A Sail foam midsole adds comfort underfoot, and contrast comes through with black hits along the outsole and branding.

One of the standout features remains the Waffle outsole. Originally developed for track performance, it now provides reliable grip and a retro touch that links back to Nike’s early innovation. Whether you’re walking, cycling across town, or pairing them with relaxed fits, the LD-1000 offers versatility without trying too hard.
