The Magpie bird is commonly seen in North America, Europe and Asia and Nike is paying tribute with two special releases of the React Element 55. One pairs sports a Green hue, while the other comes in a White tone. Both are detailed with an outline Swoosh on the sides, Red contrasting accents, and an iridescent heel clip. Following we have the magpie bird on the heel, ‘Today is the Day’ written across the insoles while a React cushioned midsole completes the look.
Check out the photos below, and expect these Nike React Element 55 “Magpie” styles to release on August 3rd at select retailers and Nike.com.
Nike was founded in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports and initially operated as a distributor for the Japanese shoemaker Onitasuka Tiger (now known as Asics). It officially became Nike Inc. in 1971.The Nike swoosh was designed by Portland State University student Carolyn Davidson，The slogan “Just Do It” was inspired by serial killer Gary Gilmore, who said “let’s do it” just before he was executed by a firing squad in 1977.
