During 2019, Nike Sportswear will take the classic Nike Air Presto and upgrade it. Replacing its midsole, we will now have Nike React technology and is officially known as the Nike React Presto.
Although the React technology might be the biggest change, it also features a new reinforced heel, mid-foot cage and a modernized tongue. The cage still will feature lace loops but with a new look while the base retains its mesh upper. Lastly, the look is completed with React cushioning in the midsole.
