Cactus Plant Flea Market and Nike are back, baby. And just when you thought their collaborative shoes couldn't get wilder, the two reappear with the collaborative Air Flea 2.

First looks at CPFM and Nike's newest sneaker collab arrived courtesy of Turnstile bassist Franz Lyonz, who gave the chunky new shoes a Rolling Loud debut.

Lyons' on-foot looks revealed the Air Flea 2 massive details, including a hulking tire tread-level sole stretching from the shoe's heel to over the toe. Really, the sneaker looks like a blend of Nike's Overbreak and Balenciaga's Defender.

CPFM's thick collaborative Nike shoe is lace-free, from the looks of it. Instead, two large straps secure the foot, topped with an even-larger cream Swoosh realized in a smooth material.

Judging by how the Swoosh hangs off the Air Flea 2 shoe, the massive Nike logo appears removable, which certainly aligns with CPFM's DIY ethos previously showcased through its Air Force 1s and By You Blazers. Though it wasn't intended to be a crafts project, that attitude inspired folks to shave their wooly CPFM Dunks. Understandable.

Concluding details on the new CPFM Nike shoe sees a "Flea 2" strikes the tongue and pull tabs. You'll catch several small reminders of Nike's presence throughout the shoe as well. Not to mention, there's a rainbow-colored insole, reminding us of CPFM's smoothie era with Erewhon.

As seen on our cover star Lil Yachty, a "Spruce Green" colorway will also join the black pairs, making for a chunky pack of Cactus Plant Flea Market x Nike Air Flea 2s.

Fans can expect CPFM's Nike Air Flea 2 to drop on October 18 on Nike's SNKRS app and CPFM's website. Let's hope that a fresh batch of apparel options will also accompany the new thick steppers, too.

CPFM's Cynthia Lu is a woman of mystery behind one of the biggest streetwear brands in the world. Her label somewhat echoes her obscure aura, mostly through its launches which come at the most unexpected times after weeks (sometimes months) of no activity.

Indeed, CPFM is known for hitting us with release info just a few days before a drop (like the Air Flea 2s). Sometimes, it'll even just shock-drop stuff. Seeing as there's no set launch time. I advise having those fingers ready for a quick checkout.
