Nike recently dropped a fresh pair of Air Max Zero PRMs, which have a bold red colorway and a sleek athletic build that allows them to function as an everyday staple.
The entirety of the uppers are colored varying shades of crimson, with the sportswear giant's Swoosh logo appearing in a lighter shade than the rest. The laces and tongues of the Air Max Zero PRMs stick to the same red theme, helping to maintain the minimalist aesthetic of the sneakers.
The soles are stark white for contrast and have a transparent component in the heel that gives them a little more depth as well. Red is integrated into this accent to help the colorway flow together. The color is also included on the toe and heel of the soles, working to the same effect.
