To pay homage to the cardboard boxes used to ship sneakers, this AM97 model is dressed in various tones of browns on its wave-pattern upper, while a barcode placed on the outsole adds a final nod to the packages being scanned before shipping. The barcode motif then carries over to the right heel tab, while stripped tongues symbolizes the tape Nike uses for online orders. Located on the insole is a stamp of Nike‘s box certification from its Memphis factory. –HB

Releasing in a clean combination of pale colors, the white-based upper is paired with grey hits and a pastel-like yellow that fills the Swoosh, lacing stays and heel branding. The React Element 55 most notably differs from its counterpart with the implementation of a mesh-like material on the upper as opposed to the translucent TPE featured on the React Element 87. While the release date has yet to be confirmed, you can expect this colorway to be dropping in the near future for $155. –HB

The neat white sole houses the Air-assisted unit while Swooshes on the tongue tab and on midfoot round off the look of this edition. Stay tuned for more information. –HB
