Nike Flyknit Racer University Red 01

Last Updated December 29th, 2016: The Nike Flyknit Racer “University Red” releases on January 27th, 2017 for $150.

The Nike Flyknit Racer has been a relevant offering every season for Nike ever since the model debuted during the 2012 London Olympics. While the shoe will be celebrating its half-decade anniversary, earlier today we got a prime look at the upcoming Nike Flyknit Racer “Blue Glow” retro, an original colorway from the Olympics’ 2012 stop. Now another colorway is popping up for the Spring 2017 season with the Nike Flyknit Racer University Red.

The Flyknit Racer utilizes a dark University Red shade with mixtures of black accent on the tongue, Swoosh, and midsole. The medial side displays a brighter appearance thanks to the inclusion of Bright Mango. The usual reflective 3M stripes on the heel tab brighten things up. What do you think of the look?
