Nike is constantly increasing its catalog of performance and recovery shoes. While the Swoosh brand has already dropped a range of clog-like comfort wear, it is extending the fleet with the release of ReactX Rejuven8 in an amazing set of colors. The striking highlight of this new silhouette is the colorways, and the subtle premium is the use of Nike’s relatively new ReactX foam, thus the exciting name, not just in the midsole.
The new chronicle of Nike clogs brings forth this comfortable footwear that has a distinct make and of course a superior material innovation in design. This results in a pair that is comfortable for all feet types, so that the users wearing it can feel relaxed the moment they dip their feet inside, which respires well with the tiny breathability holes on the top.

If you have been following Nike’s material innovations, you’ll remember the ReactX from its launch in the summer of 2023 in the Nike InfinityRN 4. The specially designed foam, which is sustainably created has found its way into a range of Nike footwear since its introduction, for instance in the running phenom – the Pegasus 41. The super lightweight and bouncy material has been the primary choice for midsoles of sneakers in the past, with the laceless ReactX Rejuven8, the experience is not only limited to the sole, the ReactX foam is also used in the construction of the shoe upper as well.
Making its presence felt in four colorways: gray, black, beige, and orange, the ReactX Rejuven8 exudes an interesting wavy design that’s based on a thick slab of ReactX foam and has a breathable clog-esque form factor. With the foam finding place throughout the shoe, literally; Nike’s silhouette is “13 percent” more responsive to shoes made from React foam, which is a significant advantage not just in terms of the shoe’s responsiveness but also because of its lightweight nature and sustainable properties.
The slip-on shoe has a comfortable form factor and an extra wide ankle opening so you can easily slip in and out of the shoes. In addition to being lightweight, flexible, and easy to wear, the shoe has a chunky foam midsole and a rubber outsole for a nice grip. While the cushiony ReactX foam footbed has your feet cradled in every stride, the holes above the toe ensure optimal airflow inside. Nike Rejuven8 with ReactX is expected to reduce the carbon footprint by up to 43 percent due to reduced energy in the manufacturing process, which aligns well with Nike’s goal of going net zero by 2050. If Nike’s idea of comfort and eco-friendliness aligns with your idea of responsiveness and recovery footwear; you can grab the ReactX Rejuven8 for $70 from Nike and partner stores.
