Release Info For The Nike React Element 87 “Desert Sand”

Release Info For The Nike React Element 87 “Desert Sand”

After a victorious introduction to market earlier this summer, Nike’s deconstructed React Element 87—arguably the hottest new silhouette of 2018—is set for a second round of drops, as the upcoming “Desert Sand” colorway now has both Japan and Europe release dates. Keeping the semi-translucent TPE upper and white React midsole the same while trading out the mostly tonal look of the first two pairs in favor of colorful accents, the shoe features rich brown and cool grey detailing on the heel, collar, tongue, and swoosh. Bright pops of volt on the throat, heel, and outsole plugs finish off the head-turning look. You can expect these bold new Elements to arrive August 14th in the US and Japan and August 16th in Europe. If you’re in the market for a pair, be sure to check out our Where To Buy page for your best chance at securing one come release day.
