Nike's New Air Max Hybrid Borrows Cues from the Element React 87
Brand: Nike
Model: Air Max 270 React
Key Features: Nike's latest hybrid sneaker builds on the 2018 Air Max 270, which at the time, featured the brand's tallest air unit at 36mm. The latest update features a full-length Nike React midsole, for improved responsive cushioning.
The new shoe also takes cues from one of Nike's most popular contemporary models, the Element React 87. “Instead of no-sew or stitched on panels, the Air Max 270 React is built with a bar tack technique inspired by the Element React 87," explains Dylan Raasch, Nike Senior Sportswear Design Director.
Release Date: July 3
Price: TBD
Buy: Nike.com and retailers like DICK's
Editor’s Notes: Each of the launch models feature vivid color blocking, punctuating the new Air Max 270 React with summer-ready color blocking inspired by the 100th anniversary of the Bauhaus, mid-century-inspired color blocking, San Francisco psychedelia and more.
