Nike is all in with the React Element 55 colorways.

Coming into 2019, two of the silhouettes that had sneakerheads excited about the future of Nike, were the Nike React Element 55 and 87. Both shoes boasted the exact same shape, although the 87 was unique as it had a translucent upper. This meant that the shoe's aesthetics changed depending on the socks you wore. At the beginning of the year, colorways for both models were few and far between, but now Nike is making sure the fans are fed. Over the last week, Nike has unveiled a few new Element 55 colorways that will surely leave sneakerheads excited for more.

Today, we have a look at a new colorway which will be dropping in the coming weeks. The upper of the shoe is covered in "dark obsidian" while a mint green pull tap adds a pop of color to the back. As for the midsole, it is predominantly white, but obsidian and mint green plugs can be found at the front and back respectively. 

Overall, it's a pretty clean colorway that is shaping up to be a great cop. According to Sneaker Bar Detroit, these kicks will run you $130 USD.
