A lightweight textile upper with synthetic leather accents delivers breathable comfort in a sleek, packable silhouette, while a Cushlon 3.0 midsole provides soft, responsive cushioning for everything from recovery walks to morning shakeout runs.

A breathable mesh upper paired with synthetic leather overlays deliver a technical look, accented by metallic details and a signature 3D Swoosh. Underfoot, a chunky yet lightweight foam midsole and plush collar cushioning keep long days comfortable, while a rubber outsole with Y2K-inspired grooves provides dependable traction. Designed for daily wear while retaining athletic performance, the V5 RNR proves that retro design still belongs in the everyday rotation.
