Product Description
The Nike Shox R4 Metallic Gold Black reimagines an innovative running silhouette launched in 2000 and dresses it in a contrasting, eye-catching colorway.
The Metallic Gold Black colorway of the Nike Shox R4 features an upper with a base of black leather perforated to enhance ventilation and comfort. This is overlaid with golden molded synthetic side panels that sport an embroidered golden Nike Swoosh outlined in black. The golden tongue features black Nike Shox branding and the black leather heel is adorned with gold detailing. The black rope laces and mesh sock liner complete the look of this upper.
The aspect of this shoe that we find most impressive is the innovative sole unit. The heel is supported by four black TPU piston-like columns that provide a soft landing and propel forward motion. The forefoot is supported and cushioned by springy Phylon foam. A black rubber outsole with circles and grooves for traction hold this sole unit together. The Nike Shox R4 Metallic Gold Black was released on June 8, 2020, or $140 retail.
