The Best Nike Running Shoes Yet to be Retroed



When it comes to retro running releases, Nike has long lead the race. Brands like adidas, ASICS, New Balance and Reebok certainly each have a strong back catalog of running models of their own, and they all seem to be reintroducing more and more of their best designs each year. But Nike, with their arsenal of Air Max classics, oddballs like the Air Flow, and icons like the Air Safari, are still leaps and bounds ahead of the competition when it comes to retro runners. Even with all these classic models that have already returned throughout the years, there are actually still many more Nike Running designs still worthy and waiting for a comeback. Today we’ll take a look at the ten best Nike running shoes still due for a victory lap.To buy more nike free run shoes mens with cheap price, you can visit shoesshox.com official website.

The Sock Racer is a legend of running footwear. Released in 1985, this revolutionary racing flat is the grandfather of all minimal and/or lightweight design. It did have a very limited re-release in 2004, but we can't even remember seeing anybody wearing pair. It's time to bring this funky runner back in full force. The Sock Racer is apparently coming back with a Free sole later this year, but we’d much prefer it in its original form. Oh, and if they do come back it’s a must that the original t-shirt and socks return, as well.

The youngest model on this list, the Air Perseus from 1998 is a bold and beautiful design—especially in its awesome Volt colorway. These babies were only $65 dollars when they first released, but are arguably cooler than any other Nike runner released that year. (Sorry, Air Max ’98 fans.)

You’ll see the Air Max2 from 1994 further down the list, but its “Light” counterpart from 1995 is also very worthy of a comeback. While the Air Max 95 gets all the love from the mainstream, many hardcore Nike running collectors would agree that this is the best Air Max model to release that year.

The Air Icarus from 1992 is one of the all-time great “work horse” Nike running shoes. Much like the annual Pegasus, the Icarus was a straightforward, everyday training shoe with a simple design and broad appeal. The Icarus has unfortunately become almost forgotten now (along with ‘93’s Icarus Extra), but seriously, look at these colorways! They need to come back!

The Air Huarache Plus from 1993 is a quintessential funky 90’s Nike shoe that has garnered a cult following throughout the years. This strapped and laceless follow-up to the iconic Air Huarache is not quite like any Nike running shoe before or after it; a truly unique model in the brand’s catalog. We think it’s definitely time to bring them back.
