Nike Flyknit Racer 526628 731 Volt Black 1

While we keep wondering if Nike will ever drop an updated sequel, great new looks for the Flyknit Racer continue to hit the shelves indefinitely. The latest edition features a throwback feel to the first colorway of the shoe ever released, with a mix of Volt and Black across the upper. Unlike the original, however, the split medial and lateral color blocking is gone in favor of the more recently used all-over heathered Flyknit weave of the two contrasting colors (although the medial sides do seem to be a little heavier on the black thread if you look closely). No matter how you mix it up, black and Volt are always going to be a winning combination, and a perfect look on the Flyknit Racer. Even though there’s still no Flyknit Racer 2, colorways like this on the original will definitely tide us over.
