Here is is folks. The What The colorway of Kevin Durant’s 8th Nike signature shoe. We recently came across the images you see above and I’m literally at a loss for words. The shoe’s upper is made out of plethora of patterns, prints and materials. Even a woven construction finds it way on to the shoe. The predominantly mesh and woven upper manage to stick together by using hidden seams that cover up the stitching construction. Adding yet another dimension to the shoe is the Olive sole unit covered in Black and White speckling. The only “normal” feature on the shoe is the White Nike Swoosh branding placed on the side panels of the shoe. Rumored to release on June 18th, how many of you are looking forward to this Nike KD 8 SE What The release?

No. Please stop. What happened to the “What The” series? In all honesty, this is one of the ugliest What The sneakers I have ever seen in my life.

The post Our First Look At The Nike KD 8 SE What The appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

The “What The” series is not like it once was, and it may even be a stretch to call this wildly patched up KD 8 a true “What The” release, but Nike is still aiming for that wow-factor with this upcoming release that will be the last of the KD 8s until the KD 9 “Pre-heat” drops on June 20th. Featured here is a mish-mash of woven and mesh materials taped together with seams that hide the stitch patterns that hold the upper together. The midsole makes use of an olive base with black and white speckling, and even the exposed Flywire features some sort of dotted detail as well. These are set to drop on June 18th; get a full look ahead.

With the lineup of apparel from the Olivier Rousteing x NikeLab Football Nouveau Collection already sold out, the Air Footscape Magista is particularly highlighted, as the hybrid soccer silhouette from the range is set to release soon.

Elevating the model with Rousteing?s luxurious aesthetic, the sneaker is accentuated with a golden touch which is prominently evident across its flyknit upper. In addition, fine detailing such as an embroidered patchwork on the leather sockliner, gold aglets and zippers further emphasize its lifestyle-inclined design.

All juxtaposed elegantly against a black sock-like collar, tongue and laces, the model is adhered atop a matching full-length waffle pattern-inspired outsole unit with deep flex grooves that allows multi-directional movement.

NikeLab’s online shop has yet to list the pair for availability, but look for it to drop really soon, as the entire range released yesterday.

Retail price is listed at $220.

I haven’t purchased the silhouette yet, but I am a fan of its design. This offering is pretty solid and I’m biased towards the colorway. It should obviously sell out due to its exclusivity.

Whether this Nike Air Foamposite One is really inspired by hip hop group Wu-Tang hasn’t been confirmed by Nike yet, but we do know that they’ll be releasing later this month.

I doubt that this is an official Wu-Tang collaboration because nothing about this colorway indicates that it’s a collaboration. Clean colorway but I’m just not a fan of Foamposites.

I like the 9 better. I’m not a fan of the higher build and this is too bulky for my taste. Nice colorway though.

Along with Kyrie Irving, J.R. Smith and most of the Cleveland Cavaliers are chasing their first Larry O’Brien trophy. During Game 1 of the NBA 2016 Finals at the Oracle Arena last night — in which they lost to the Warriors, 104 – 89 — Smith was seen wearing this special Nike LeBron 13 Low PE.

Sporting a Cavs-inspired colorway, the basketball sneaker’s defining theme is prominent on the gradient midsole with subtle speckling. Perfectly offset against a dark navy-colored upper, the model is finished off with large white Swooshes across the forefoot and an icy translucent outsole.

This model was only showcased during the first half of Game 1.
