Nike Elite Trainers

GREY/BLACK/WHITE

NYLON/SUEDE

FIRST AVAILABLE AROUND 1982

When it was first released, the Elite, was hailed as the most state of the art marathon shoe on earth. Designed to ’ride over the fatigue of The Wall’ (the moment in a marathon, usually 20 miles in, when the glycogen in your muscles runs out, resulting in staggering agony). Specially designed to feature no seams to restrict your toes or cause blisters, and above all for the time weighed an unparallelled 240 grams.

Available here for the first time in the original Nike Yankee classic 82 colourway.
