Neon-Accented Knit Sneakers

Nike's Epic React Flyknit Running Shoes Have a South Beach Colorway

Nike's signature Epic React Flyknit sneakers received a new tonal makeover in the form of the South Beach colorway option. The running shoe silhouette is complete in bright pink and teal details -- the outsoles, heel area and clip see teal hues in Nike and Epic React branding accents. The uppers have both pink and teal knit patterns traveling back towards the heel while most of the sneaker is black to allow the pops of color to stand out in contrast.

The running shoes are finished with the signature Nike React foam cushioning for both comfort and functionality with lightweight sensibility. The Epic React Flyknit South Beach colorway will be available for purchase online at Nike.
