Nike Air Max 90 2 Nike Air Max 90 Nike Air Max 90 1

Following an official overview, the Nike Air Max 90 Heat Map edition is given a closer look, particularly showcased in an editorial setting.

Listed exclusively for GS sizes only, the popular runner is essentially defined by its multicolor upper that takes cues from thermal imagery, which showcases infrared radiation into an electronic image in various shades consisting of red, orange, yellow, green and blue.

To offset the vibrant theme, black is utilized for the leather mudguard, inner lining, laces and midsole unit. Additional pops of red are implemented on the outsole, tongue tag and visible bubble unit in the heel to further pronounce its design.

Look for this standout pair at select Nike accounts on Saturday, March 26th.

Author’s Take

It would’ve been cool if the sneaker’s upper changed temperatures when worn. The theme is appealing nonetheless and perfect for the spring/summer season.

Following the release of its “Strong As Steel” variation, the Nike MetCon 2 is reinterpreted in another finish, this time dubbed “Strength In Bloom.”

Additionally, contrasting white accents are applied on the Swoosh branding and heel counter to cap off the eclectic palette. If you’re interested in purchasing, find it at Nike retailers on Monday, March 28th for a retail price tag of $140.

I’m a fan of the model’s sleek profile. The inspiration and overall colorway is cool, but it’s not for my taste. It’s suitable for all genders though.

To follow-up on a recent all-white iteration, the new Nike Air Huarache Ultra is offered in another favorable finish, this time sporting a combination of black and white.

Essentially flaunting the understated tone across its mesh, neoprene and synthetic upper, this variation sports a more refined profile, while still maintaining its iconic heel cage system, although this time featuring a larger band on the rear.

All resting atop a clean white rubber sole unit to cap off the sneaker’s simple two-tone design, you can find this latest pair at Nike retailers now for a price tag of $120.

Following previous offerings of Night Maroon and White, the Nike SB Stefan Janoski Max returns in another new colorway this season.

Sporting Total Crimson as its primary hue, the bright shade essentially covers the sneaker’s mesh upper, inner lining, tongue and laces. Subtle pops of Racer Blue are implemented on the Swoosh branding and rear portion of its outsole for a nice sense of contrast, while a clean white sole unit finishes off the composition.

Further detailed by a revamped air bubble unit in the heel, you can find this variation of the silhouette at select Nike retailers overseas first.

If you’re a Knicks, Mets, Islanders fan, this pair is perfectly suited for the teams. I’m generally a fan of the model and this is a solid offering.

Set to release tomorrow as part of the Nike Basketball Easter Pack is this vibrant colorway of the Nike Kyrie 2.

This festive colorway of the Kyrie 2 comes with a predominantly White upper and Hyper Jade, Urban Lilac, and Bright Mango detailing. As you can see, the ankle area of the shoe features a colorful egg print while more color detailing appears on the Swoosh branding, outsole, and the Kyrie branding on the tongue.

Releasing at select Nike retailers across the country on March 25th for a retail price of $125, is the Nike Kyrie 2 Easter on your pick-up list?

via: Nike


Author’s Take

Out of all the shoes in the Nike Basketball Easter Collection the Kyrie 2 executes the Easter theme the best. The egg print theme around the ankle is a perfect representation of the holiday along with the colors that were picked. It reminds me of an Easter basket.

Also joining the Nike Basketball Easter Collection will be the Nike Kobe 11. With Kobe’s career quickly coming to an end this will be the last Easter colorway that will release while he’s still in the NBA.

The bright colorway of the Kobe 11 features a Dark Grey Flyknit upper on the front of the shoe with a gradient effect that shifts to Bright Mango on the back half of the sneaker. The tongue, inner liner and translucent outsole are also done in Dark Grey/Black while the Swoosh features 3M detailing. What’s curious about this shoe is the skull that has been placed on the heel of the right shoe. Is it supposed to be the skull of a bunny since this is an Easter colorway? Nike gave no description so all we can do is speculate at the moment.

How many of you will be picking up a pair tomorrow? Remember that they’ll release at select Nike retailers for $200.

Author’s Take

Orange and black for Easter? I can’t make the connection with Easter at all with this colorway. And that skull on the heel make it even stranger.

The Nike Air Max 90 Ultra BR Opts To Take The Tonal Route

Looking for a comfortable, lightweight, comfortable shoe for the Spring season? I suggest you take a look at the Nike Air Max 90 Ultra BR. Coming in two tonal offerings, today we take a look at both readily available colorways.

The shoe will come in your choice of all-white or all-black. The upper is constructed out of a perforated Hyperfuse material making it light and breathable. Continuing the monochromatic look of the shoe is the tonal Air unit equipped sole unit. Tonal Nike branding, laces and lining complete the aesthetics of the shoe. Both pairs are now available for purchase for the retail price of $130. Is this a cop or drop in your opinion? Let us know in the comments below.

Author’s Take

I’m all for acomfortable, lightweight and breathable sneaker, just not in these colorways. The white is too high maintenance, and the black sort of shadows all the unique features on the shoe.

I?ve never been a fan of any Foamposites but this University Red option isn?t that bad. I just can?t see  myself spending $200 or more on a shoe that I ?sort of? like.

Nike Air Huarache 1 Nike Air Huarache 2 Nike Air Huarache 3

As we dive into the Spring season we’ll undoubtedly be seeing more and more colorways of the Nike Air Huarache. When Nike released the Easter Pack last week it was an early sign of things to come.

Continuing the trend of bright colors for the Spring and Summer is this new option of the lightweight runner that is highlighted by Beta Blue. Beta Blue lands on the mesh toe and synthetic overlays on the toecap, side panels and laces. Serving as a contrast are Anthracite and Cool Grey accents on the heel counter and neoprene bootie.

Take a look at the on-feet images above and let us know if this is a colorway that you plan on scooping up for the Spring.

Author’s Take

I love seeing Nike release more and more colorways of the Air Huarache. The shade of blue used on this pair is a little too bright for my liking but I know that many people will like it.

Another colorway of the Nike Air Penny 2 is upon us and the release date is actually closer than you think. Coming in a Varsity Blue colorway, today we take a look at the official images of the Nike Air Penny 2 Varsity Blue.

What appears to be inspired by Penny Hardaway’s tenure with the Orlando Magic, the penny 2 comes dressed in an upper consisting of a black nubuck base accented by the Varsity Blue and white accents found throughout. Additional details on the shoe include the 3M hits placed on the pods and tongue, while an icy translucent sole finishes off the look. Said to be dropping April 8th for $160, is this Penny 2 on your watch list?

Definitely sense the Orlando Magic theme on the shoe. Never been big on Penny sneakers, but this is one of the better colorways I’ve seen on the model.
