Ross Dwyer Nike’s React foam technology has only been around for a few short years, but it’s already imbued many a Swoosh Brand sneaker with a sporty and futuristic feel, including the React Element 55. Recently, it’s also been used on the new React Presto, a React-equipped modern-day take on one of Nike’s most popular throwback lifestyle silhouettes. Now, the Nike Presto is returning the favor to the React line by lending its original “Rabid Panda” colorway to the aforementioned React Element 55, making for a compelling footwear gumbo of homage, tech, and color palettes that long-time Nike loyalists are sure to love. The “Rabid Panda” combines a dark blue tone with a duo of red accents: one a dark and stately “Team Red,” the other a hot and spicy “Habanero Red.” The duo of cardinal tones are dispersed across the blue upper and white midsole to provide accents and ensure that “Rabid Panda” is still just as compelling in 2019 as it was when it debuted all the way back in 2000. If you want to add this history-packed pair of Nike shoes to your collection, they’re available for $130 on Nike.com through member’s access now, so make sure you’re signed into your NDC account.
