Jasmine Tang With its stacked sole design and Air puck, the nike epic react flyknit 2 black white assumes a rather bold, futuristic look. An upcoming women’s pair manages to kick things up a notch by adding space-age patterns and finishes.
The avant-garde design starts with lilac suede uppers that see faint white graphics. Such graphics include a Swoosh on the lateral side, which sees a swirled print reminiscent of the outsole of the Nike Lunar Force 1 YOH QS. On the medial side, there seem to be symbols representing Olympic Track and Field events such as running strides and passing torches. The fun details continue with a heel overlay and the Air puck opting for a holographic look. Additionally, the stacked sole design sees two different compositions: a green speckled look for the “top” sole and a simple white makeup for the individual below. A layer of bubblegum pink separates these two elements, with the bright hue also applied to the zig-zag stitching details at the forefoot and on the heel. A chocolate brown Waffle outsole delivers traction while completing the whimsical design.
The Nike South Beach is Back Nike.com in the coming months at a price of $150.
