Joining the Summer 2025 selection, it is crafted with hues of Cool Grey, Metallic Cool Grey, black, and Dark Team Red. The cool grey detail makes up a lot of the silhouette and it combines the red tone. The running shoe is constructed with a layered base with two versions of the same grey hue -- one is plain and the other has a metallic touch. It is joined by the Swoosh motifs on the midfoot which is done in the signature red color. This same color continues at the midsole unit to round it all out.
