This colorway of the shoes was made for Eliud Kipchoge, who ran the fastest marathon ever at Nike's Breaking2 event in May, to wear at this weekend's Berlin Marathon. Kipchoge has a personalized version of the shoe (pictured below) with his logo, "Beyond the Limits" mantra, and family's names.

Nike previously said that it had no plans to release this shoe, although it gave away a limited number of pairs after the Breaking2 race.
