One of Nike's most hyped up models over the last year has been the Nike React Element 87 thanks to its super-comfortable React midsole and translucent upper which allows the aesthetics of the shoe to be changed depending on what kind of socks you're wearing. For a while, Nike had put a pause on new colorways of the shoe but now that the Spring is here, it seems as though Nike is bringing the shoe back with a plethora of great colorways.
The latest version of the sneaker is being dubbed "Red Orbit" and is shaping up to be one of the best colorways of the shoe released so far. Various shades of blue and red are complemented by hints of purple and it all comes together to form a simple, yet maximalist colorway. The Nike swoosh and the laces are red, while the back heel and tongue see some blue and purple highlights.
According to Sneaker News, this colorway will be dropping in Asia tomorrow and will see a more global release a bit later this year.
