Ross Dwyer As the proverbial “younger brother” of Nike’s React Element 87, the React Element 55 fills an interesting place in the Swoosh Brand’s lineup. Featuring the same cored-out React midsole, striking outsole plugs, and sleek upper as the 87 — albeit constructed of an opaque mesh instead of translucent TPE — the 55 offers a similar look for $30 less than its counterpart, and is much more widely available to boot. It’s arrived to market in many colorways over the past weeks as well, from a Tiffany-style combo of teal and black to a classic red/black, but this upcoming silver-and-grey toned pair may just be the most interesting one yet. Calling upon a cool grey mesh for the base, the shoe boasts shimmering silver accents on the midfoot swoosh and heel taping. A soft grey suede tongue and throat add a touch of premium flair, and the unique white React midsole with grey plugs completes the futuristic styling. Look for these Silver Surfer-esque Nike shoes to release on Nike.com later this Fall, and let us know what your favorite React Element 55 colorway is as well.
