The Nike React Element 55 has had quite the release run since its debut back in 2018. Now, Nike is giving us the chance to create our own personal colorways through their recently renovated Nike by You platform.


Nike’s customization platform recently went through some changes, rebranding as Nike by You and adding plenty of new options in the process. Now, the brand is beginning to add entirely new and exciting offerings to their long-running bespoke offerings. This month, the Swoosh has announced that they’ll be adding the React Element 55 to Nike by You next month, one of their most popular new silhouettes.

The Nike React Element 55 has seen dozens of different colorways since its initial release midway through last year. Now, Nike is giving you the chance to create your own unique color schemes with one of their specially created color palettes. The different materials, trims, color, and special accents provided are all inspired by bright and protective hazmat and firefighting suits, both of which rely heavily on stiff, nylon-like materials and neon colors. Nike has also noted that various gold elements are added to the options for an eye-catching twist.

The Nike React Element 55 is said to be available via the Nike by You platform on May 2nd, 2019. The Swoosh has not yet announced a retail price for the custom pairs, but they are likely to go for more than the usual $130 price tag. Check out some of Nike’s custom colorways below, and stay tuned to JustFreshKicks for more Nike Element release news.
