Tom Sachs

Tom Sachs

Tom Sachs is a leading American sculptor who has enriched contemporary art in remarkable ways. He was born in 1966 and is now 56 years old. He graduated from the Architectural Association in London. Tom Sachs' dedication to fine craftsmanship, attention to detail and innovation sets him apart. His impeccable craftsmanship has earned him worldwide recognition in a very short time. 

Introducing the dynamic duo of quality and creativity

Tom Sachs' innovative designs and high-performance materials combined with Nike's cutting-edge technology have resulted in stylish and functional sneakers. These shoes perfectly meet the preferences of all outdoor fans. What is certain is that together they have created an exceptional line of high-quality hiking and running shoes that will captivate sneakerheads in no time. 

The most expensive trainer from Nike and Tom Sachs

2017 was an eventful year for Tom Sachs. Between the lavish Space Camp and the film screening, his NikeCraft Mars Yard 2.0 shoes were in the spotlight. This updated version of Sachs' previous shoe collection impresses with its numerous details. According to Sachs, each material has its own strengths and weaknesses.

The desert-ready sole that Tom had adopted from the Nike Special Forces Boots proved slippery on wet surfaces such as metal and tiles. So the NikeCraft team reversed the lugs to prevent slipping on slippery surfaces. The red laces on the tongue and heel of the shoe broke, so the studio team sewed the laces through the tongue with an extra strong X seam, following the Sachs principle "He won't fail on me". To extend the life of the shoe even further, customers receive a replacement set of cork insoles so they can wear the shoes without socks.

But how much does the well-designed NikeCraft Mars Yard 2.0 cost? At Nike and in stores, the sneakers are already sold out, but luckily there are resale platforms like StockX. However, you should be prepared for high prices, because a pair can cost a whole month's wages. The average selling price for a Mars Yard 2.0 by Tom Sachs is currently €4,020 (as of 2023).

Tom Sachs x NikeCraft General Purpose Shoe Field Brown

While the Mars Yard - Nike and Tom Sachs' introduction to the NikeCraft concept - was developed for scientific space expeditions, its relative, the NikeCraft General Purpose Shoe (GPS), finds its place in everyday life. Both, of course, are based on the basic idea of the sneaker as an everyday tool and are developed with the same unwavering attention to detail. "It's not about what you do, it's about how you do it," says Sachs, who partnered with Nike from the start to create a sculpture that anyone can wear. Thanks to the slightly raised toe area, the GPS is unique in its shape, but not too flashy. Its construction - with a three-piece sole, signature pull-on tabs, microfibre collar and ultra-comfortable knit material - offers unbeatable value for money. "It has taken ten years to design a shoe that is as simple as it gets. NikeCraft rejects innovation just for the sake of it, but embraces it as a necessity," adds Sachs.
 
Its relative, the NikeCraft General, was designed by Nike and Tom Sachs with comfort and support in mind. It also offers excellent tactile sensitivity. But it's not just about feeling good, this shoe is also built to last. The upper is breathable but tough enough to withstand a few drops of rain, and the laces are of the highest quality. Not to mention the three-piece moulded cup sole. It ensures a comfortable feel, while the chunky outsole provides good traction.
