Chinese Holiday-Themed Knit Runners

Nike's New Air VaporMax Flyknit 2s are a Bright Festive Red

Nike introduced a new and captivating colorway of the signature Air VaporMax Flyknit 2 sneakers -- the new tonal completion honors Chinese New Year. The cultural festivities will be approaching within the next two months and to celebrate, the running shoes are complete in a bright red color along with some floral designs.

The upper is complete in the iconic knit construction and it sits on top of the signature transparent VaporMax soles in a red tint. Notably, the lacing systems are also finished in the same bright hue to tie the entire silhouette all together. At the heel counter and the footbed are hits of black, white and blue floral patterning. An additional contrasting element is the small white Swoosh at the side and the black heel tab.
