Nike has been obsessed with innovation since its start, and sometimes that means a lot of hits and misses. The Swoosh’s running department has been on a hot streak lately, but remembering past failures is what keeps us honest, and for next month’s past-meets-present International Running Pack, Nike is channeling the good and bad from their decades in the game. Included in this is a Vomero 18 colorway inspired by the once-recalled Nike LD-1000.
Releasing as part of a four-pack of Nike runners set to drop for the track and field championships in Tokyo next month, the International Running Pack Vomero 18 takes on the iconic gold and red colorway from the LD-1000, blending shades of sulfur yellow throughout the engineered mesh upper and stacked sole packed with ZoomX and ReactX foam. The sunshine is interrupted by a bright red Swoosh across the side and logo accents on the tongue and toebox. The heel counter and pull tab get a hit of bright orange to complete the vintage look.
