Originally released in 2018 as a women’s only silhouette, the success of the Nike Women’s M2K Tekno encouraged the brand to expand the silhouette into men’s sizes. The M2K Tekno pays homage to the Nike Air Monarch with early 2000s aesthetic details—like the chunky shape—while adding modern touches like a distinctive heel clip. The ‘Obsidian’ model features a blacked-out upper with a white midsole and a glossy heel counter detail.
