Nike introduced its now-iconic Moon Shoes more than 50 years ago for the 1972 Olympic Trials Marathon. The Nike Moon Racer Black Racer Blue borrows elements from those shoes while also offering an updated take on them, complete with advanced technological features.
These Moon Racer shoes have a black and blue upper made of leather and suede, with an almond toe in the front. They also include black Nike Swooshes on each of their sides, with decorative stitching surrounding them. Additionally, they have lightweight black speckled midsoles with a futuristic design and rubber outsoles to provide excellent traction.
But according to our sneaker experts, the most appealing thing about this particular sneaker is its unique backstory and the twist it has managed to put on the original Moon Shoes. The Nike Moon Racer Black Racer Blue was released on November 1, 2018, when it initially retailed for $150.
