A plethora of metallic and neutral tones combine across the intricately layered outer of this Nike Zoom Vomero 5, giving it a powerfully modern appearance. This begins on the grippy outsole, whose forefoot and heel are covered in cuboid pads in the dark gray shade of Flat Pewter across the latter. The former pads, meanwhile, combine this deep tone on the front and back tips with a lighter hue known as Iron Ore through the center. In between the waffle grip formations, the indented lines come in either Summit White or Iron Ore, offering a pleasant backing to this sturdy tread. BRS 1000 text has been pressed into one of the heel pads to subtly indicate the use of this formidable protective covering on high-wear parts of the outsole.

Spongy Cushlon foam then forms the midsole, as indicated by the lettering debossed into the Summit White part of its lateral side. Above this is a silvery gray strip that displays Nike Zoom text as evidence of the pocket of responsive cushioning held within. Further cushioning pads appear in Iron Ore along the rear and lateral side of the heel to deliver even more bouncy support to the back of the foot.

Meanwhile, the upper brings together a whole range of different components in a similar set of colors but with the notable additions of Photon Dust and Metallic Silver. Iron Ore can be found on most of its leather panels, with one capping the toe, another wrapping around the middle of the heel and two on either side of each sidewall panel. These latter pieces are formed from a grayish brown plastic that creates a series of protective bars over the flanks, behind which a narrow mesh can be seen. This lends breathability to the flanks, and the wider mesh of the forefoot and collar extend this ability around the rest of the foot.

A luxurious piece of suede has been shaped into a Flat Pewter frame and placed over the front of the foot. This is partially overlaid by the Iron Ore eyestay, which itself becomes Flat Pewter suede at the top. Cream-coloured laces with hints of light gray thread woven through them tie up over a mesh tongue whose upper half switches to a darker, almost green tone. Nike and Vomero 5 text appears in a label sewn into the peak of the tongue, the words visible due to the juxtaposition of two tones: Flat Pewter and off-white. A similar color to this last one blankets the inner lining, and the Photon Dust exterior of the insole exhibits a unique Bill Bowerman emblem in black and white.

Elsewhere. striped decorations appear on several parts of the outer, starting with the leather overlays on each flank, which have pairs of thick dark brown lines arcing across them. The pieces of textile holding the laces in place are also striped, the one running up the center of the tongue featuring a reflective line flanked by bands of Flat Pewter. More reflective areas show up on the toe and heel overlays, the latter of which has a Flat Pewter embroidered swoosh in its center. Below this, in the same hue, is a tough heel panel whose triangular structures give it both physical integrity and breathability as some of them have been opened up to let air in. Resting over each flank is a Metallic Silver swoosh with a surface that is both shiny and reflective, thus rounding out this compelling sneaker with an unexpected but welcome visual effect.
