Nike ACG introduces a look at the newly revamped Mountain Fly Low 2 sneaker model for the season. It arrives in refreshing new colorways with either a white and orange option or a green and grey blend. The shoe often has a muted palette of earthy tones and although it is brighter this time, the silhouette still has a minimal theme.
Under the shoe is a grippy spiked outsole unit that wraps upwards for better traction. The forefoot is detailed with a fast-toggle closure to keep the foot in place. Branding can be seen on the toggle system, at the insoles, on the tongue tab, and marked in a faded application along the lateral side of the shoe.
