Continuing its focus on the lifestyle-oriented Air Max model, Nike recently put together a reflective take on the Air Max 270.

Centered around high visibility, the shoe features a black mesh upper dressed with black reflective 3M panels at the midfoot and heel. Contrasting red Swoosh and AM270 branding is found scattered on the toe, midfoot, tongue and heel. Finishing up the design of the latest colorway is a hybrid sole unit with a translucent red external Air heel bag, and a black lightweight foam forefoot sole.

There is no official news on a release date, but you can expect these to retail for around $160 USD.  Stay tuned for more details regarding the release of the Nike Air Max 270 “Reflective Black/Red.”

In case you missed it, Nike is set to release a “Grey/Orange” Grid React Element 55.
