Nike’s viral ReactX Rejuven8 recovery shoe, or in all honesty, their “Crocs killer,” has been one of the harder “GR” sneakers to attain. Pairs fly off virtual and real-life shelves when they restock as The Swoosh is struggling to meet demand. While the next planned restock will occur later this month alongside the first release of the ReactX Rejuven8 Slide, more colorways for the standard Rejuven8 are on the horizon, including this Dusty Cactus Persian Violet.
The all-over ReactX foam slip-on features a gradient pattern, transitioning from a Persian violet shade on the lower half of the model into a bright dusty cactus blue on the top half. Perforations on the toebox add breathability to the sneaker, while the Swoosh on the midfoot contrasts the blue hues with its black finish. Inside, the footbed comes with a textured finish to provide extra grip on feet. Finishing the design is the sticky rubber outsole in Persian violet.
The Nike ReactX Rejuven8 Dusty Cactus Persian Violet will release in Summer 2025 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is $70.
