Nike React Element 87

The Nike React Element 87 is arguably one of the best new silhouettes that Nike has launched over the past few years. Initially seen at Jun Takahashi’s UNDERCOVER runway show, it sent a serious buzz through the sneaker scene when they were first spotted.

With a collaboration with UNDERCOVER already in the works prior to its launch, we are also being treated to a wider in-line release.

First launching in the Black/White colourway, this sneaker fuses nostalgic chunkiness with futuristic materials.

Using a semi-translucent upper thats seen on the Zoom Fly, this sneaker focuses on all of the small nuances that set it apart from the rest. It uses a low-slung Swoosh on the side panel, a trail style lacing system and exterior taping used throughout.

Couple this with hits of suede and leather, along with a 3M heel tab and you have a high heat silhouette on your hands.

With the initial launch coming in June 2018, expect more to hit retailers as the year goes on.
