First Look At The Kendrick Lamar x Nike React Element 55

Earlier this month, we reported that Kendrick Lamar was working with Nike on an Air Force 1 that's set to drop sometime next summer. But before all of that though, it looks like Kung Fu Kenny has another Swoosh collab up his sleeve, taking on the wildly popular React Element 55 silhouette that's been making its way to everyone's rotations since its debut last year.

Taking to Instagram, the rapper posted a photo of himself rocking the pair of RE55s. While we actually unveiled this all the way back in January of this year, this is the first time we're actually getting a glimpse of the shoes in question.

Crafted from hard-wearing textiles, a smokey pattern graces the upper, with the lateral side adorned with white smoke and the medials getting the black smoke treatment. Other design elements include the all-too-familiar React foam unit down below, as well as a pair of thick rope laces that tie the shoe together very nicely.

Serving as the follow-up to the Cortez Kenny III and Cortez Kenny IV 'House Shoe', the Kendrick Lamar x Nike React Element 55 is rumoured to be dropping on November 5th and will retail for around £120. Nothing has been confirmed yet, so make sure you keep it locked at The Sole Supplier and we'll let you know as soon as more release info rolls in!
