This long-awaited release marks the return of the Mars Yard lineage with a bold reimagining for 2025. Designed by Tom Sachs and NikeCraft, the Mars Yard 3.0 fuses aerospace engineering, rugged utility, and visionary design, bringing the next evolution of the cult-favorite silhouette to life. With new materials, enhanced performance details, and a rollout tied to the ISRU (In-Situ Resource Utilization) challenge program, this sneaker is as much about the story and discipline behind it as it is about style.
Overview
The NikeCraft Mars Yard 3.0 is a striking evolution of the Mars Yard 1.0 (2012) and 2.0 (2017), preserving the natural, earthy aesthetic that has defined the series—neutral tones, off-white mesh, tan suede overlays, maple, sport red, and sail hues — while upgrading nearly every component. It features new tooling: a React foam midsole for cushioning, a natural rubber outsole for durability, a carbon fiber shank for support, TPU toe and heel clips for protection and stability, oversize eyelets and staggered, blucher-style eyestay, and a lace keeper matched with a heel donning strap. The lightweight, open mesh upper and re-engineered lacing system improve fit across varied foot shapes. The packaging has also been reworked to be reusable, underscoring Tom Sachs’s design philosophy of durability and sustainability.
Retailing at $275 USD, the style code is IF2885-100, and the official colorway is Natural / Sport Red / Maple / Sail. The Mars Yard 3.0 becomes available to the public via select retailer drops and requires participation in the ISRU Challenge program via the NikeCraft ISRU app to gain eligibility. Its wide retail release is set for September 19, 2025.
Key Highlights
• NASA-Inspired Utility Meets Street Style: React foam midsole, carbon fiber plate, TPU toe and heel clips combine for stability, support, and protection.
• New Lacing System & Fit Innovations: Oversized 5mm eyelets, staggered eyestays, open-blucher eye stay, round ribbed polyester laces, lace keeper, and heel donning strap enhance flexibility and customized fit.
• Durable & Sustainable Components: Natural rubber outsole, soft React foam, and reusable packaging reflect Sachs’s emphasis on long-lasting design and reduced waste.
