The Nike VaporMax 2023 Flyknit "Baltic Blue" Arrives May 18

In contrast to the high-profile releases during Air Max Day in March, Nike's newest VaporMax Flynit model saw a more low-key launch. But after its initial offerings in black, white, and grey, the new model will kick things off in May with a shot of "Baltic Blue" and "Citron Tint"

The Vapormax 2023 Flyknit builds upon the previous models with subtle refinements. The most significant update is the new upper weave, which features embedded cables that secure the lace loops for a better fit. This innovative design also incorporates an "unfinished" look, showcased by the exposed sponge innards around the ankle.

While the Vapormax cushioning unit remains unchanged from the 2021 model, the midsole has been slightly retooled with an upward scoop for an improved aesthetic. The new silhouette has already been previewed in classic black/white and pure platinum colorways. However, it truly comes to life with the vibrant Baltic Blue arrangement, sure to catch attention.

The Vapormax 2023 Flyknit is expected to be released on May 18th, available through nike.com and partnering Nike Sportswear retailers worldwide.
