Cheeto Finger Fresh: Nike Adds Orange Dust to a New Vomero Plus

Finger-licking good isn’t just for KFC. If you spent your childhood (or adulthood, no judgment here) digging into the bottom of chip bags for the very last Cheetos, Doritos, or Flavor Twist Fritos, you definitely know what it's like to dye your fingers orange with cheese dust. Nike is very familiar with the color-changing snacktime vibes, and on a new Vomero Plus, The Swoosh is taking a cheat day.

Every Runner Needs a Day Off

The Nike Vomero Plus Cheat Day is a tribute to taking time off from the track, putting rice, broccoli, and ground beef meal prep on hold for a bag or two of cheesy chips. The cheat day diet colorway leans into the snack food diet with a gradient pattern from toe to heel like a handshake with Chester Cheeto.

Starting with nuclear test site orange on the toe and the lace tips, the colorway switches to ceramic and grey as it evolves past the toebox, pulling the rest of the shoe out of the chip bag. Taking away the typical side panel Swoosh, the Vomero Plus colorway opts for a mini Swoosh on the lateral heel of the stacked midsole and reverts to a touch more orange on the heel tab.
