When you think of fall sneakers, you probably imagine dark, moody pairs designed to blend quietly into the background. But for anyone looking to add something a little brighter to their rotation this season, the upcoming Nike Zoom Vomero 5 Light Orewood Brown Light Smoke Grey is here to deliver.
While the Zoom Vomero 5 is arguably more popular than ever now, the silhouette actually debuted back in 2011 before being revived in 2019. Since then, it’s been blessed with major collaborations from A-COLD-WALL*, high-profile co-signs from Drake, and a steady stream of unbelievably slick color combos like this one.
Built on top of a breathable Light Smoke Grey mesh base, it’s overlaid with buttery Light Orewood Brown suede across the toebox and heel – a refreshing twist compared to the model’s usual leather build. Along the sides sits the Vomero 5’s signature rubber cage, while around the back, a honeycomb-esque heel counter ensures unbeatable support and stability.
Underfoot, the midsole is crafted from lightweight Cushlon foam, bolstered with responsive Zoom Air tech for extra comfort during long wear. The Light Orewood Brown Light Smoke Grey is then finished with subtle 3M reflective accents so you can flex confidently during late night runs or early morning jogs.
The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 Light Orewood Brown Light Smoke Grey is available now from Nike online. Make sure you grab Sole Retriever's mobile app to stay updated on the latest sneaker drops, raffles, restocks, release reminders, news, and more from across the constantly evolving world of streetwear.
