The Nike React Element 87 Is Scheduled To Release On June 21st

After originally being unveiled in 5 colorways last month as a collaboration with Jun Takahashi’s Undercover, the futuristic Nike React Element 87 is now set for an in-line, non-collaborative release this month. Official images of a black/white pair recently surfaced, and the new silhouette is nothing if not striking.

Featuring a semi-translucent upper similar to what you’d see on the Nike Zoom Fly, the shoe’s main details arrive via its low-slung Swoosh that dives into the midsole, exterior taping on the heel, and a wavy, trail-style lacing system constructed of leather and suede that boasts reflective accents-as does the heel tab. The tongue features a jagged design that’s shorter towards the lateral side and longer on the lateral side where a Nike React hit appears, and small swooshes on the toebox/heel finalize the React Element 87’s branding. The thick white React foam midsole features abstract translucent black plugs for an interesting touch of detail and contrast, and the eye-catching sneaker is completed with an insole boasting cork detailing. Look for these innovative hybrid sneakers to arrive in Europe June 21st and in North America July 13th, retailing for $160.
