The Nike Zoom Mariah Flyknit Racer “String” Releases July 6th

Seeing so many pairs of the Nike Flyknit Racer on sale shelves was a bit surprising given the silhouette’s popularity over the past five years, but it was about time that Nike Sportswear updated the modern day classic with some new tech. That’s where the Nike Zoom Mariah Flyknit Racer comes into play, as the Swoosh didn’t disappoint through added Zoom Air cushioning and high-arching sock-like fit for added support. The pair takes inspiration from Nike’s lauded Mariah retro runner and will come in a number of head-turning colorways next month. Today we get a look at the casually-minded Mariah Flyknit Racer String featuring a vibrant injection of Solar Red on the midsole stripe and heel tab while a greyish tan Flyknit base is accented by black Swoosh branding to match the laces. The synthetic heel cage gets a matching look for a pair that’s simple enough to rock sockless all summer long.
