Nike Air Jordan Apex-Utility Review
Description
Intriguing and groundbreaking, the Nike Air Jordan Apex-Utility is a hybrid of multiple Air Jordan and Nike models, delivering a beautiful creation that is both aesthetically pleasing and technology-forward. Built on the Air Jordan Flyknit upper and Nike’s React midsole, this latest model comes with a transparent mesh sheet from the Swoosh’s React Element 87 covering the black and red colorway. Following the mix of designs and colors, the tongue and ankle collar comes with padded and adjustable construction plus a “Visitor” branding which reflect guests of the Nike HQs around the world. Topping it all off is the contrasting letter branding across these hybrid sneakers.
