The Nike Foamposite One is unlike any other sneaker in the game. Designed by Eric Avar and first released in 1997, the Foamposite One was built around a single-piece moulded shell upper — a concept so alien at the time that many thought it would never sell. Decades later it remains one of the most distinctive, identifiable, and coveted silhouettes Nike has ever produced. The black colourway (616750-003) is the most versatile version: it lets the sculptural form speak entirely on its own merits, with no graphic distraction. Beneath the shell, a full-length Air cushioning unit and carbon fibre shank plate provide the performance foundation the shoe was originally designed for. A 1:1 replica built to capture the same material precision and structural integrity as the original. Sized EU 40–46.

The Foamposite One in black is an iconic shoe and this version does the molded shell justice. The iridescent inner liner shows through and the swoosh placement is precise. Mid ankle height is comfortable.
Foamposites are hard to get retail and this 1:1 fills the gap perfectly. The jet-black Foamposite shell has the right glossy finish and the carbon fiber-look shank is present underneath.
Solid build. The Foamposite material has that rigid, contoured feel it should. Fit is snug like the retail pair -- go half up if you have wide feet.
These arrived with impeccable glossy finish on the shell. The outsole grip pattern is correct and the visible Air unit in the heel is cleanly done. Very satisfied.
Wore them to a basketball event and got tons of attention. The Foamposite shell shape is spot on and the colorway is deep black. Would order again.
Q: Are Foamposites true to size?
A: Foamposites typically run a half size small due to the rigid shell. We recommend going half a size up for a comfortable fit.
Q: What is the shell made of?
A: The upper is crafted from a molded foam composite material that mimics the original's rigid, contoured shell. It has the glossy finish and structural shape of the retail silhouette.
Q: Can these be worn for basketball?
A: They are wearable for casual play. The outsole has a herringbone-style grip pattern. For serious performance play, retail basketball shoes are recommended -- these are best as fashion/collector pairs.
