The real kicker of the Japanese native’s look was her choice of shoes. The mid-top sneakers actually come from her own collaboration between Nike and Comme des Garçons that debuted in December 2020, titled the “Home Is Where the Heart Is” iteration. Reimagining the Nike Blazer Mid ’77 silhouette, the sneaker includes branding from both CDG and the Swoosh brand along with custom hand-written elements from Osaka herself.
The highly-acclaimed sneakers now resell for upwards of $310 to $1,000 at resale sites like GOAT and StockX.
