Looking to hit the trails this summer? You’ll need footwear that can keep up. Fortunately, the new Nike React Element 87 is a tech-driven modern take on a classic sneaker.
How do you create a running shoe that maximises cushioning through all those little movements we make all day, from running and shifting to the occasional sprint. According to Nike, you start with foam and a drill. In the brand’s newest trail-friendly sneaker, Nike Sportswear’s special projects team has studied pressure maps and found, through trial and error, which depths and densities of foam accomplish comfort goals.
Looser and wider than the Nike Epic React, with design touches taken from the Nike Internationalist from 1981, the new Nike React Element 87 is the result of the savvy, contemporary refinement of an old design device. While its 100-percent TPE yarn textile upper exudes a very of-the-minute translucence, the treatment of the eye stay and the employment of a heel clip nod to iconic silhouettes past.
The Nike React Element 87 is available in four colourways and features foam cushioning with rubber rivet inserts and patterned ridges that are spread far apart to offer the ultimate in stability and comfort. With a deconstructed flare, the new sneaker is a homage to the past as well as a nod to the future.
