After wrapping the Air VaporMax Run Utility in an ACG-inspired colorway recently, Nike has returned to the utilitarian silhouette for a new “Tropical Twist” design. The sneaker’s upper comes in white, with speckled grey panelling running along the outside. This upper sits atop a black VaporMax sole unit.

The understated upper is offset by tropical-influenced touches, including a bright blue heel guard as well as orange detailing on the toggle lacing system, tongue and outsole. Take a look at the sneaker in the gallery above, and expect Nike’s new tropical-inspired Air VaporMax Run Utility to hit the label’s web store on November 8.
