Two lesser known Nike models will be making a comeback with an obvious motivation to turn some heads. Both the Air Elan and Royal Mid will be returning with a luxurious premium makeover. The Royal Mid sports a simple silhouette with some definite similarities to the Air Jordan 1. The shoe will be released in two new colorways, both flaunting a perforated Swoosh and incorporating metallic materials into the design. One version features a clean white upper with a Metallic Gold toe box and tongue, while the other uses an all Metallic Silver upper with a white midsole and laces. The Air Elan is also classed up with a light grey suede upper, perforated Swoosh and a Metallic Silver tongue. For now, these are available at Swedish retailer SixFeetDown, but you know we’ll keep you posted if they’re making their way to the States.

The Elan has a nice outline, but why such a whack name?

Caliroots has another Air Elan in navy suede with a gold tongue.

Damn i have to admit…i kinda like the High tops!(not interested in the lo’s)…though i would like to see these with a normal swoosh, not the “dotted” look. The Silver ones are dope though…
