Tom Sachs and NikeCraft are building upon their ongoing partnership with the fresh colorway of the widely loved General Purpose Shoe. Recently, the third "Brown" version of the silhouette hit the internet, catching the attention of both sneaker connoisseurs and fans alike.

The forthcoming Tom Sachs x NikeCraft General Purpose Shoe “Brown” rendition will supposedly hit the sneaker world in the coming weeks. Although the company keeps the official drop date of these brown shoes under wraps, they will be offered at a payment of $110.

Like its previous iterations, these shoes are also expected to be traded via Nikecraft.com, later this year.

For the unfamiliar, Tom Sachs is an inventive and provocative sculptor best known for his complex, bricolage depictions of engineering and design masterworks.

Earlier in June this year, the 56-year old creative introduced the first iteration of the General Purpose Shoe (GPS) made in association with NikeCraft. With the debut of his initial off-white colorway, Sachs disclosed that it took roughly 10 years of creative labor to create the GPS. They aimed for a do-more sneaker, a show-up, and a design that can prove-it, whole-life, and become an ideal be-you sneaker.

Following the release of the off-white variant, the duo then created a “Burnt Sulfur” colorway. This version appears to be a deviation from its previous minimal makeup. And finally, we are witnessing a newly created “Brown” rendition that will drop later this year.

Not too long ago, various sneaker insiders, namely @SneakerKnockerz, @Prvt.Selection, and @masterchefian, shared a detailed look at the impending sneakers.

The uppers of the new “Brown” colorway are built with premium mesh and superior quality suede overlays. The complete shoe features lighter and darker tones of the eponymous brown placed alternately all across the uppers. Minimal hits of black and white are also employed for the final touches.

First, the meshed toe areas are encircled with rugged brown suedes. Close to toe areas are the tongue flaps, fashioned with similar mesh elements. These tongues are adorned with black and white Nike swoosh branding tags alongside bold black pull tabs.

Identical pull tabs are also fixed on the rear heels. The heel counters, which are wrapped up in rough suedes, feature NIKE lettering etched on them. Furthermore, the lace loops of dark brown are placed on top of tongues, and customary swooshes of deeper tones are added to the laterals.

The sockliners and insoles, which are accomplished in brown, are emblazoned with NikeCraft logos.

Rounding out the shoes are the sturdily built black Waffle-inspired outer sole units that are perfectly banded together with the dark brown Phylon midsole.

The pull tag placed behind the tongue flap features text that reads,

“NikeCraft shoes are manufactured to the exact specifications of champion athletes throughout the world. NikeCraft supports all the activities of your life and tells your story.”

Keep an eye out for the next Tom Sachs x NikeCraft General Purpose Shoe “Brown” makeup that will arrive in the next few weeks. With a retail price of $110 per pair, these limited edition sneakers will be sold by NikeCraft's online store.
