Description
The Nike Hot Step 2 Opti Yellow, released in August 2024, is a vibrant addition to Drake’s NOCTA collection with Nike. Inspired by late 90s and early 2000s styles, this sneaker features a bold monochromatic yellow colourway. The upper combines breathable chrome mesh panels with premium synthetic leather overlays in Opti Yellow. Chrome accents highlight the mini Swoosh logos and TPU midfoot overlays, adding a modern, sophisticated edge.
The shoe offers signature NOCTA trident branding on the tongue and insole, while the chunky foam midsole with visible Air cushioning ensures all-day comfort. A yellow rubber outsole provides durability and traction. This model balances bold aesthetic decisions with practical streetwear comfort.
Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity of your sneakers, we recommend a considered approach to their care. Regular maintenance is key to preserving their aesthetic integrity and material quality.
- General Care: For leather and synthetic uppers, gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Laces can be hand-washed separately. Allow the sneakers to air-dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, to maintain the structure and quality of the materials.
- Suede & Nubuck: These delicate materials require specific attention. Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt, always brushing in the same direction. For stubborn marks, a specialist suede eraser is recommended. Avoid water, as it can stain and alter the texture. To protect against the elements, a light application of a waterproofing spray designed for suede can be beneficial.
