Latest Pick-up: Nike React Element 55 "Pastel Pack"

Nike has often turned our heads with its numerous creations. With the large selection that the Swoosh provides us with almost daily, the decision is often not that easy. Above all, with all those sneakers, you can hardly keep track of everything, whether it's a new Jordan, a new Air Force 1, or an entire collection.

But, we always keep an eye on it for you and try to keep the overview as simple as possible. Beside the many editions, we also publish old silhouettes, which definitely look great as well. This sneaker might not be old all right, but the newer silhouettes are coming more and more to the fore.

The Nike React Element 55 hasn't had much to say lately. But, now, it drops even louder than ever. With the new Nike Pastel Pack, the 2018 silhouette perhaps comes with a more unusual upper.

The Nike React Element 55 came out in the craziest versions. Most issues featured the wildest colour combinations. Monochromatic or boring colourways were almost never seen. Either a simple black was combined with a bright red and yellow or a dark grey with a strong pink.

Maybe the wild design is also in the DNA of the RE55. Because of the many layers on the eyestays and the unusual stripe on the back, the sneakers take on a slightly deconstructed look. With the new version, the Swoosh tries to keep the distinctive design.

The Nike React Element 55 "Pastel Pack" also features the beloved lightweight mesh construction. Through the base, the futuristic sneaker keeps its structural characteristics. The upper as well as part of the eyestays and the sole stand out because of the violet colour. The upper tips on the eyestays shift your gaze to the grey tone.

But, the tongue is probably responsible for the eye-catching quality. The long tongue shimmers with a metal foil. At the beginning, we thought that the tongue could wrinkle quickly. But, you can't see the creases at all. Other highlights are the heel tabs in a vibrant pink color and the muted pink plugs.

How does one talk about a Nike React Element 55 without mentioning the technical details. The silhouette is not even two years old. Therefore, the sneaker has many new and modern features. Sure, the lightweight mesh base is an essential part, but the model definitely owes its name to the sole.

The React cushioning is one of its durable technologies. The weight is reduced by the light and reactive foam. The rubber plugs also give an extremely good grip. Nike has certainly ensured this optimum grip feature. With such a light sneaker, you could easily slip. But, with the heel clip, it lets you stay in control.

We found the colours quite dominant at the beginning. On-feet, the sneakers look completely different. Nevertheless, the pastel colour makes it a real eye-catcher. But, the technical details of a React sneaker are the definite plus points. The shoes are very comfortable and feel especially good. We recommend you to choose your actual size. The sneakers are TTS.
