The Nikecraft General Purpose Shoe(GPS) is the perfect daily beater. Tom Sachs designed the sneaker to ‘narrate’ your journey, picking up stains, tears and repairs that would visually represent your daily life.

They Designed the GPS with simplicity in mind. Only the most essential features and materials are utilized on the sneaker. As such it’s only made up of a three-piece molded cup sole, donning straps, microfiber collar, and airy knit.

The shoe is constructed to be cozy and strong. The upper material is made to repel a few raindrops yet promises to maintain a decent level of breathability. Sachs also engineered the midsole to be responsive, stable and offer a high degree of tactile sensation.

The Nikecraft GPS marks 10 years of partnership between Nike and Tom Sachs. The duo’s previous collaboration includes the unreliable Mars Yard 1.0, drastically improved Mars Yard 2.0, the out-of-this-world Mars Yard Overshoe and the community-tested Mars Yard 2.5. The GPS marks a clear shift away from the Mars Yard design language, signifying a new approach to their collaboration.
