In 2000, Nike introduced a technological feature that seemed born from a science-fiction movie: four PE ?pucks? on a heel platform that was the visual extreme of responsive energy return. The technology would have its sports moment in every field, from running to basketball to training. After reviving the platform earlier this year with the Nike Shox Gravity, Nike is bringing back the silhouette that started it all with the Nike Shox R4.
Many qualities of the re-release are loyal to the original Nike Shox R4 ? the platform and double-lasted synthetic upper return, as does the shoe?s original launch colors, metallic detailing and reflective elements. The covered midsole blends together these elements in one unified look, allowing wearers to feel that they have a piece of the future on their feet ? just as they did 18 years ago.
The Nike Shox R4 releases October 4 in both men’s and women’s sizes at the below specialty global retailers and online at Net-a-Porter:
