SummarySolange Knowles has been tapped as the official face of the latest Nike x Jacquemus campaign, highlighting the highly anticipated return of the collaborative Moon ShoeArriving just in time for spring, the ballet-inspired silhouette is being released in three fresh new colorways: Chocolate Brown, Sail, and Soft PinkAll three variations launched via Jacquemus on March 9, with the Brown and Sail colorways slated for a wider global release via Nike SNKRS on March 16The partnership between Nike and Simon Porte Jacquemus continues to deliver some of the most elegant footwear crossovers on the market. Building on the massive success of their initial drop last fall, the French luxury label, Jacqumeus and the sportswear giant have officially unveiled the next chapter of their collaborative Moon Shoe. Tapping visionary artist Solange Knowles to star as the face of the stunning new campaign, the duo is welcoming the spring season with three brand-new, highly covetable colorways.Originally handcrafted by Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman for the 1972 Olympic trials, the historic Moon Shoe has been entirely reimagined through Jacquemus’ distinct design language. “Three years ago, when I first visited the Nike archives, I discovered an iconic piece, the Moon Shoe, timeless and modern in its simplicity and execution,” Simon Porte Jacquemus told WWD in a recent statement. “I immediately saw an opportunity to write a new story and reinterpret it in our own way.”Merging sportswear history with the ongoing balletcore trend, the updated silhouette features an elongated, narrow shape that fits almost exactly like a ballet flat. The unique design is highlighted by a signature gathered nylon upper, an elastic heel strap for a snug fit, and a sustainable Nike Grind waffle outsole.For the Spring 2026 lineup, the Moon Shoe arrives in a versatile trio of Chocolate Brown, crisp Sail, and a delicate Soft Pink. Speaking on the new color palette, Jacquemus noted that the pink iteration directly channels his brand’s DNA, describing it as a “sensual color that gives the silhouette softness and intimacy.” Following in the footsteps of previous early adopters like Dua Lipa and Jacob Elordi, Solange Knowles perfectly embodies that effortless, intimate energy throughout the striking new campaign imagery.If you are looking to elevate your spring rotation, the new Nike x Jacquemus Moon Shoe collection officially launched on March 9, 2026, exclusively via the Jacquemus website and flagship boutiques. For those who missed the initial drop, the Chocolate Brown and Sail editions will see a wider global release on March 16 via the Nike SNKRS app and select retailers. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Nike (@nike)Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast
