Nike React Element 87

Nike React Element 87 is the new silhouette that comes to improve the feeling of comfort of the Nike Epic React, thus becoming the first sneaker silhouette with React cushioning technology. This foam presents a new aesthetic in this model, it is multiple perforations that has designed the Nike Sportswear team with director Darryl Matthews at the head, which has recognized that at the beginning of starting this project nothing seemed to fit, but over time they have managed to touch the key that has given life to the team and has managed to create this new foam that is characterized by perforations and different densities that have been achieved through a study of trial and error on the pressure of this puma at the time of the tread, with which it has managed to obtain the different pressure maps that have allowed to offer this new aesthetic touch in which the React foam has been drilled.

The refined contemporary technique of an old design device is also evident in the upper of the React Element 87. While its 100% spun TPE fabric upper exudes a translucency that is very close to current fashion, the vision treatment and employment of a heel clip nods to iconic silhouettes of the past like the Nike Air Vortex. This is consistent with Nikes overall design theory: the problem a product needs to solve will always create its form. In many cases, this is balanced with a bit of familiarity, so people can still connect with some of the simple elements of Nikes past designs.

The Nike React Element 87, are more flexible and wider than the Epic React and visualizes the soft bounce of the casual silhouette. That's where you get a rudimentary approach that yields sophisticated results, which we're going to be able to enjoy through different colorways coming out in the Summer/Fall 2018 season.
