The Zoom Vomero 5’s most productive and prolific year was well-decorated by wildly colorful and over-the-top design concepts, but 2024 could be an indication that the popular silhouette could make getting the eggs and milk a lot more relaxed.
Exemplified by the Doernbecher Vomeros and the glow-in-the-dark “Photon Dust”, the Zoom Vomero 5 sped into the hearts of sneaker fanatics worldwide, becoming one of the more collectible builds in 2023. Nike has shown that the late-2000’s running shoe would be a priority for the brand in ’24 as laid out by CEO Jon Donahoe’s statements during a Q2 earnings call, but too much of any good thing may not lead to intended results. Colorway options like this “Platinum Tint” are crucial as it re-centers the foundation, because the Vomero 5 needs to re-capture the “dad shoe” identity and regain its spot as a popular pick among the downtown crowd.
This upcoming release delivers a package of greys and light cream tones, favorably blending in with arguably more coveted models in the competitive genre like the GEL-Kayano 5 and the New Balance 1906R. Expect a release soon on nike.com for $160, and while many recent Vomero 5 options have been sitting on shelves, this “Platinum Tint” has got all the ingredients to be one of those sneaky hits.
In other lifestyle footwear updates, here’s a detailed look at the Patent Leather New Balance 550 colorways.
