The Air VaporMax Run Utility follows up the previous “Reflect Silver” and “Triple Black“ with “Black/Anthracite-Habanero Red.” The sneaker is geared for this season’s colder months with a lightweight feel. The Flyknit upper is dominated in black with the aforementioned Habanero Red added to its toggle-secured lacing system. Dynamic Flywire cables stretch from the Air VaporMax unit to unite at the forefoot which provides the wearer with a reliable and flexible lockdown feel. –HB

Following the success of its Air VaporMax Plus hybrid, Nike will soon launch the Air VaporMax Run Utility silhouette.

Nike‘s Air VaporMax Utility Flyknit receives a clean makeover for the warm weather, dubbed “Light Bone/Summit White.” A black heel panel contrasts with a lighter-hued midsole and upper, blending the knit detailing and straps with light beige detailing.

A classic look, the latest Air Vapormax Flyknit 2.0 option for spring features a mostly white upper with black tones on the back and covering the iconic Swoosh branding.

Following its reveal as part of the drops leading to this year’s Air Max Day, another colorway of the Nike Air Vapormax Plus has emerged.

Racer Blue kicks things off as it moves towards Hyper Violet Red in the midfoot and Team Red closing things out on the toe. Its overlay matches the sole unit in black while the heel’s Swoosh logo is treated the same. This edition is slated to drop on January 25 for $190 at select Nike retailers. –HB
