The Blistering Nike Tuned ‘Silver Bullet 2.0’ Arrives at Foot Locker
Ready to take your rotation to dangerously high speeds?
The ‘Silver Bullet 2.0’ – the sequel to a cult classic – is ready to cause a ruckus at the colourway modelled on one of the most beloved designs in sneaker history.
Every bit as eye-watering as its predecessor, the sophomore ‘Silver Bullet’ this time ditches the ‘Team Red’ accents altogether, instead leaning into the aluminium-like aesthetics famously modelled on mountain bikes.
The Nike Tuned, of course, continues to provide the perfect canvas for Christian Tresser’s colourway, with the indelible Florida palm trees (represented by the TPU cages) giving us a whole new metallic sunset.
In fact, the only visual break from the sleek chrome design is the white midsoles (which house the classic Tuned cushioning system) and enduring TN insignia on the heels – almost always represented in sunny yellow.
All the beloved design hallmarks of the Nike Tuned are present, including the nautical midfoot shanks (modelled on a breaching whale tail) and lightweight mesh on the uppers for breathability and durability.
Originally designed for performance running, the Nike Tuned still offers some of the best tech in footwear while also serving as a lifestyle lynchpin for the Swoosh.
