Just under a year after its release, the Nike P-Rod 5 LR reprises the black/mint look with which it debuted. This latest release differs from the initial drop by blacking out the leather Swoosh atop a suede upper and extending the Crystal Mint shade from tongue and heel branding to the ankle collar. This serves as a cue for the eye to follow along and find the Paul Rodriguez signature tag that replaced the more generic Nike and Swoosh as still seen on the heel, so examine these details for yourself courtesy of more photos below and grab the latest LunarLon P-Rod Vs at Flatspot.

Most of the models that’ve received vulc sole/LunarLon footbed updates had previously utilized Zoom Air in a cupsole, but the Nike SB P-Rod 5 (notice the absence of ‘SB’ branding on the tongue and heel) became the first to switch from Lunar to Lunar when its LR’d version dropped a short while back. It’s a fitting array of tech for a silhouette whose series was the first to switch from cup to autoclaved soles back on the P-Rod 2.5, and even this new Swan and Action Red colorway can be seen as a follow-up to the white/black/Sport Red P-Rod IVs (not to mention the connection to an upcoming ‘Cinco de Mayo’ Mid). In short, this is a model with plenty of ties to the past but with the advantages of cutting edge technology, and they’ll be available at US retailers soon, so stick with Sneaker News for updates.
