Running is embedded deep within Nike’s DNA as the Oregon-based sportswear label got its start on the track. Today, The Swoosh is a major sponsor of many running events and even puts on its races, like the upcoming After Dark Tour, which will span six major cities: Sydney, Shanghai, Seoul, Mumbai, Los Angeles, and Mexico City. For the women’s-focused event, Nike has created a special colorway of one of its hottest new silhouettes — the Nike Pegasus Premium.
Strikingly similar to a colorway that just launched in March, the White Volt rendition, this pair swaps the white hues on the lightweight circular knit upper for a football grey finish. The same metallic silver Swoosh lands on the lateral midfoot, cutting across the fused TPU panel that separates the top and bottom half of the upper. More tonal hits of football grey find a home on the neoprene tongue, the lace set, and ripstop eyelets, the latter containing the coordinates to the first-ever Blue Ribbon Sports retail location in Santa Monica.
