[Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summit-white-colorway) unveils a new tonal iteration of the signature Air Max 170 React sneakers with a colorway entitled 'Summit White.' The all-white uppers boast a stripped-down version of the classic design, showcasing the entire uppers in the same color. The branding detail highlights a slight difference, as the [Swoosh](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-pearl-colorway) on the side is informed in a slightly darker shade of white.

This hue is also featured at the mudguard and the heel wrap as well. The design delivers some elements of contrast through the [pastel pink details](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atmosphere-colorway) that can be found at the clear Air Max unit as well as the lace eyelets. The label's signature 'Ghost Aqua' blue is found at the outsole, with addition hits of blue and pink at the Air Max 270 React embroidery at the tongue.
