Nike React Infinity Run Joins the Blue Ribbon Sports Family
Another salute to the Swoosh’s early days.
Before Nike was Nike, it was Blue Ribbon Sports, and Nike Running is continuing to salute its earliest days with a new take on the React Infinity Run. Joining other recent BRS-inspired styles like the ZoomX Vaporfly NEXT% and Zoom Pegasus Turbo II, this commemorative React Infinity Run blends modern tech with classic Nike Sportswear style.
Built from a white Flyknit, the socklike uppers equip a grey synthetic heel and midfoot overlay for extra structure. This grey layer also serves as a sounding board for a majority of the shoe’s accents — namely the outline of a navy Swoosh and a three-pack of alternate graphics: a small Swoosh, a red rising sun logo with blue lines and a flowing BRS motif. Under this trifecta is a full “Blue Ribbon Sports Track Club” hit.
Heel tabs add “Infinity React” in navy, and insoles add blown-up versions of the heel’s rising sun (left foot) and BRS (right foot) graphics. Red and blue TPU shanks provide sturdy support, and a white React Foam midsole ensures long-lasting, ultra-soft cushioning. Blue rubber outsoles finalize the style.
The Nike React Infinity Run “Blue Ribbon Sports” is available now via Nike Japan, and retails for $160 USD.
Moving from the track to the basketball court, Giannis Antetokounmpo‘s Nike Zoom Freak 2 has debuted in a “Black/White” colorway.
