After recently finding out that Nike was bringing back one of the O.G. Flyknit Racers, we've now got a side-by-side comparison of the 2016 version and the originals from 2012.

Much like the "Multicolor 2.0" and "Oreo 2.0" Flyknit Racer releases, this new take on the "Total Orange" colorway sees an updated knit pattern. The O.G.'s linear toe box patterns and the contrasting grey medial panel are altered here in favor of a more erratic knit that will vary from pair to pair. However, from a distance, it will probably be tough to tell these apart, as the orange shades and grey accents are more or less the same on both pairs.

Now that you've seen how they stack up next to the O.G., look out for the 2016 Nike Flyknit Racer "Total Orange 2.0" to drop on June 10 for $150.
