Fresh off the success of its "Oreo" Flyknit release, images of a new Nike Flyknit Racer have hit the 'net and it uses cues from another runner designed by HTM trio of Hiroshi Fujiwara, Tinker Hatfield, and Mark Parker — the Free Flyknit NSW.


Having most recently been utilized on the Free outsole, The Free Flyknit upper is making another appearance on Nike's Racer outsole, and was just teased by sneaker leaker @lequan306. Sleeker than its Free counterpart, this latest Racer silhouette has the potential to be another coveted release by Flyknit diehards. The initial colorway features a white-and-black upper contrasted with a red midsole, which is an interesting design choice as it draws the viewers eye away from the Flyknit tech. While no official information has been available just yet, we do hope news drops sooner than later.
