Carl Blakeslee originally drew up the Air Max Goadome all the way back in 1999 to give Nike an answer to the wheat Timberland. And while the silhouette certainly worked, it wasn’t really where anyone expected. Down in the DMV the boot got rechristened the Nike Boot. It was worn in black on black as a winter uniform and immortalized in a Wale track he and Jim Jones still argue over. Twenty-six years on, a workwear house finally has its hands on it, and the result is the Air Max Goadome Low WIP.
Dearborn Canvas, Suede, and a Script on the Foxing
When it comes to the colorway, it’s really informed by the construction approach. Carhartt WIP layered a panel of Dearborn Canvas right into the midfoot and built around it in suede and leather.
Then comes the branding handoff, and it’s a generous one at that. Carhartt’s script label takes the foxing (the shoe’s most visible real estate), while Nike’s Swoosh keeps to the quarter in a small metallic finish that picks up the eyelets and D-rings.
Those D-rings feed rope laces, and underneath sits the familiar Goadome Low tooling with Air in the heel. Carhartt WIP credits the low stance to Nike’s old Half Dome, which is admittedly a deeper archive pull than these usually bother with.
Twilight Marsh Never Reaches SNKRS
All three pairs run one palette in a different order, and they’re hard to choose between. Light British Tan sets suede against an olive canvas panel with Metallic Ochre in the hardware. Meanwhile, the Black plays it a bit more quiet, sporting all leather with the other shades at the edges.
Which leaves Twilight Marsh (the olive pair), and notably, the one pair Nike won’t sell. It stays with Carhartt WIP, so the November 20 SNKRS drop gets the other two. As for the ask, all three land at $190.
The Six Pieces Nike Isn’t Selling Either
The apparel deserves better than a footnote, though none of it reaches SNKRS. The Windrunner Active Jacket is a true hybrid at $348, lifting the chevron chest blocking, toggles, and mesh lining off Nike’s Windrunner and setting them on stone-washed Dearborn Canvas with the Active Jacket’s triple stitching and kangaroo pocket.
Its matching Drewe Pant hides quite possibly the best detail in the collection. Carhartt WIP gave it the Double Knee’s reinforced knees, hammer loop, and tool pockets, then angled those knee panels to 26 degrees so they trace the Windrunner’s chevron.
Heavyweight hoodies ($168), waffle long-sleeves ($118), box-logo tees ($58), and Futura-knit beanies ($45) round out the six in WIP Hamilton Brown, Black, Cypress, and Fleur de Sel.
