The Nike Free Flyknit 4.0, as well as its Free Flyknit relatives, hasn't caught on in the lifestyle realm in quite the same way as the Flyknit Racer or Trainer.
That makes sense to some extent considering that the shoe seems to be slightly more performance oriented with the Free outsole on bottom. What may help close the gap though are colorways like this one, which draws on the already beloved multicolor combination. The shoe isn't quite as rainbowed-out as the true 'Multicolor' Flyknit Racers and Trainers, but it does have a blue/teal look that's been coveted in the Flyknit oeuvre ever since it showed up on the impossible to obtainNike Nike Lunar Flyknit HTM Trainer. This pair, a women's release, has been slow to retail but can be had on eBay.
