The Whitaker Group x Nike V5 RNR Collection Revealed

The Whitaker Group is expanding its footprint on Nike’s V5 RNR — this time as a unified family rollout across its retail banners.

Rather than a single-partner collaboration, the Nike V5 RNR collection will be distributed across The Whitaker Group’s portfolio, with one to two exclusive pairs landing at each family store. That means distinct colorways tied to A Ma Maniére, Social Status, JAIDE, and APB, giving each retailer its own interpretation of the comfort-driven runner.

The Nike V5 RNR has quietly built a presence as a lightweight, breathable everyday model, blending performance mesh uppers with supportive synthetic overlays and a cushioned sole unit. It’s a silhouette rooted in wearability, making it a practical canvas for elevated retail storytelling.

A Ma Maniére’s entries lean into its signature layered neutrals and tonal contrasts, pairing soft violets, muted olives, and desaturated pastels with refined material blocking. Social Status takes a bolder route, offering deeper hues like Geode Teal alongside cleaner white-based options with contrast Swooshes and layered detailing. APB’s pairs sit somewhere in between, mixing sport-inspired color accents with understated base tones for a balanced finish. While JAIDE, the group's newest store chain, keeps the colors bright and fresh.

Across the collection, branding remains controlled and minimal. The emphasis is on color curation and store identity rather than heavy logo placement or structural redesign. Each pair keeps the V5 RNR’s breathable mesh build and supportive tooling intact, reinforcing its positioning as a crossover runner for daily wear.

A release date has not yet been confirmed, but the collaborative Nike V5 RNR collection is expected to arrive later this year through The Whitaker Group's and Nike channels. Pricing has not been announced, though it is expected to sit within a standard performance-runner range of $95
