Nike Air Pegasus 2k5 “Pale Ivory/Metallic Silver” HQ5403-102

Y2K silhouettes will be everywhere in Beaverton in 2025 as 2000s-era designs continue their takeover, on fronts both entirely new (Air Pegasus Wave, Air Max Muse,) and retro (Vomero 5, Air Max Sunder, Air Pegasus 2k5). The lattermost silhouette may not be have the unrelenting presence of its peers, but it continues to offer up an off-the-beaten-path way to embrace trendy aesthetics, never more true than with the “Pale Ivory” look that just surfaced.

Executing a well-trod combination of cream and black on its base layer, the high contrast between the two primary shades makes the midsole stripes, a frequent calling card on the Pegasus 2k5, even more of a highlight for this pair specifically. Of course, Beaverton designers ensure that you won’t go without the foremost identifier of Y2K shoes, as notes of “Metallic Silver” on the mini Swoosh at the quarter hit on the retro-futuristic note that brands everywhere continue to embrace.

The Nike Air Pegasus 2k5 “Pale Ivory” has already landed via global Nike channels, a sign that a stateside release is likely just around the corner. Once this pair materializes, it’ll be up for grabs in men’s sizing with a $150 MSRP.
