This past weekend, British label KNWLS made its Milan Fashion Week debut, presenting the Spring/Summer 2026 collection, titled Synergy. The collection revealed tailored, sculpted, and textured designs that, in my opinion, surpass all their previous work.
As the icing on the cake, there was also a collaboration with Nike, with the Air Max Muse as the showpiece.
The collection with Nike introduced technical designs in which Nike’s innovative technology merges with KNWLS’s signature design style, characterized by check patterns and advanced materials. Alongside corset tops, flowy long-sleeves, and streamlined trousers and leggings, the Nike Air Max Muse also appeared, one of Nike’s latest silhouettes.
The Air Max Muse embodies KNWLS in every way. The shoe features a cut-out design that fits seamlessly into today’s loafer-ballerina trend. The twisted, corset-like laces and sharper, angular silhouette evoke football boots fused with ballerinas. A pointed toebox gives the sneaker its haute couture flair.
The eccentric model debuted in an iridescent green colorway, an all-black version, and a pink variation with red and white accents. A collaboration that feels refreshing and breathes new life into both brands’ collections.
We can likely expect the collection in Spring 2026 at Nike and KNWLS. Check out images from the KNWLS runway below and keep an eye on the Sneakerjagers news page for updates.
KNWLS is a London-based fashion brand, founded by Charlotte Knowles and Alexandre Arsenault, known for its edgy, corset-inspired designs and sculptural, futuristic aesthetic.
