One of the most iconic shoes of 1996 and perhaps of all-time is finally back in stores. That would be the Nike Air More Uptempo, the gaudy AIR-branded sneaker commonly seen on the feet of MJ’s teammate Scottie Pippen throughout that season and during the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, GA. There are certainly more colorways on the way, but the black/white pair is kicking things off as Foot Locker reports a stock right now (their Launch Locator will tell you precisely which locations). Not to worry – other sneaker boutiques have plans of selling them in the coming weeks. Stay tuned for more updates.

Alongside the recently featured women’s iteration, the newly-introduced men’s Nike Air Max BW Ultra in Navy is showcased in more detail, following its official reveal.

Essentially a modernized iteration of the lineage which celebrates its 25th anniversary, this variation of the silhouette incorporates an upgraded upper comprised of Hyperfuse that exudes a sleeker and lighter build, while still maintaining the classic appeal of its original 1991 counterpart.

Dark blue consists as the primary tone gracing the base, tongue and laces, while accents of hyper cobalt are applied on the inner lining, encompassing along the mudguard and rear portion of its sole unit.

All resting atop a clean white midsole with its distinctive air bubble component in the heel, the sneaker is finished off with perforations on the rear and its respective Swoosh logos.

I’m a fan of the AM lineage overall. It’s nice to see this model revamped and the colorway is pretty versatile as well. This silhouette should get more attention this year.

A luxurious iteration of the classic Nike Cortez is presented, as it receives an understated finish of Dark Obsidian this season.

Maintaining its sleek and simplistic profile, the model is comprised of plush suede across its entire upper for a premium build. The subdued tone flows towards the inner lining, tongue and laces to execute a stealthy-like aesthetic. A notable element is the utilization of miniature perforations to define the brand’s Swoosh logo on the side panels.

To round out its design, clean white accents are applied on the rubber sole unit in addition to metallic lace tips. You can find the model at select Nike stores overseas now.

These next two versions of the Nike Sock Dart will come in a cozy looking Tech Fleece upper. Adding this signature fleece material on the upper manages to give the shoe a unique texture and appearance. The two new colorways donning the Tech Fleece look actually happen to release tomorrow. Let’s take a detailed look at both.

Both pairs will feature a two-toned colored upper that end up pairing two different colors of the Tech Fleece material. The first pair is done up in marbled grey and purple sitting on top of a white midsole, while the second pair comes in black and grey motif sitting on top of a grey midsole. Honestly, you really can’t go wrong with either pair. Releasing tomorrow, how many of you are planning on getting a pair of the Nike Sock Dart Tech Fleece

I love the look of the shoe, I don’t own any pairs of Sock Darts, but I think this would be a good time to pick up my first pair. The black and grey appears to be calling my name.

The Nike Mayfly is making a comeback, and it’s sure to be one of the most unique releases of the year. Unlike today’s sneakers which are built to last, the Mayfly actually has a limited lifespan.

When Nike originally released the shoe, it was built for a “One Day Fly”, in other words, it was meant to last only one race. Created for long distance runners, this model lightweight and flexible that it was built to only last an average of 100km before it starts ?self-destructing? and falling apart. There are several colorways set to release but today we take a look at the University Red option with hits of white placed all over the upper and sole of the shoe. No release date yet but let us know what you think about the shoe.

Even if it’s officially listed for females, the style and colorway on this pair is solid for males as well. I like the revamped composition and the design is timeless.

We know that Nike will not admit that this is another jab at Kanye but we all know the truth. Out of all three colorways that were inspired by the Yeezy 2 this is probably the most wearable and as a result the best. It?ll be a pass for me though.

Years ago I would consider purchasing, but I’m just over this print. The execution is pretty solid though. I’m still a fan of the design.

Back in January Nike introduced the Nike Metcon 2, the sequel to their new cross-trainer that was introduced in early 2015.

Today we take a look at the newest colorway that will be releasing on March 7th known as the Strong As Steel. According to Nike this colorway represents the potential of metal at its most malleable. Bold color and clear intentions infuse the series with intensity. The Nike Metcon 2 features a flat, stable platform and dual-density foam for stability and cushioning during intense workouts. Firm and sticky rubbers create durable traction and extra support.

Pick yours up directly from nike.com or other select Nike retailers beginning on March 7th for $140.

Best part about this colorway is the marbled outsole. Reminds me of a few of the colorways of the KD 8 that have released. And bright kicks are always good for the gym.

The women’s iteration of the Nike Internationalist is introduced in another bold colorway this season, following a recent color block finish.

Additional black accents adorn the leather heel tab, heel counter and outsole, while subtle lemon drop hits on the Swoosh branding, tongue label and rear to further add vibrance to its appealing profile.

Even though it’s officially listed for females, it’s still versatile for all genders in my view. I’m biased towards the profile and this colorway is pretty solid for spring/summer.

One of the best Nike sneakers that made the biggest splash in 2015 was the Nike Air Huarache. It seemed like everywhere you turned you saw men and women rocking the Tinker Hatfield-designed runner.

In 2016 we’ll see more of the same as we’ll be treated to plenty of new colorways of the Nike Air Huarache and other hybrid models inspired by the Huarache. In the images above you see different colorways of the OG Nike Air Huarache, the Nike Air Huarache Light, the Nike Air Huarache Ultra BR, and the Nike Air Huarache Ultra. Each silhouette comes in colorway options for both men and women.

What Huarache and colorway from the pairs pictured above are you looking forward to the most? Let us know down below and look for these Huaraches to release some time this Spring.

I don’t really mess with the hybrid Huaraches and I like sticking to the original. Hopefully Nike releases some dope colorways so I can pick up a couple of pairs this year.

The Nike Phantom Pack is a collection consisting of four different Nike models. The Nike Air Max 90, Nike Air Odyssey, Nike Air Pegasus New Racer and Nike Internationalist (not pictured) all come in tonal offerings to create the Phantom theme behind the pack.

Different shades of creamy off-white suede and mesh take care of the uppers on all four pairs. Tonal branding, lining, laces and accents give the shoe a clean and smooth look. Accompanying the tonal look of the shoe is the white midsole/gum outsole combination that effortlessly gives the shoe a classic and vintage aesthetic. Available overseas, it’s only a matter of time before we see these stateside. Are you looking forward to seeing these drop? If so, which pair do you think is the best looking?

I feel like a similar look like the one you see above is done ever single year. Not to say I don’t like it, it just seems a bit repetitive in my opinon. They’re cool, but I’m going to have to pass on them.

Following its official reveal last month, the latest variation of the Nike Flyknit Racer in Fireberry is set to drop at retailers tomorrow.

Suited for the warm season ahead, the sneaker’s defining hue is essentially predominant across intricately knitted upper, tongue and laces. Additional hits of volt are intertwined throughout entire composition and Swoosh branding to further add vibrance to its already eye-catching profile.

Offering maximum breathability, comfort and a lightweight feel, the model rests atop a full-length sole unit in contrasting shades of black and white. You can purchase this vibrant pair at select Nike stockists on March 4th for a retail price tag of $150.

Ever since Nike decided to bring back a remastered OG version of the Nike Air Force 1 High, it seems as if they release a brand new colorway every other week. The last colorways we’ve covered consisted of a white/OG Team Red and a Black and White version. This time around the Nike Air Force 1 High OG comes in a Summit White paired up with hits of black to give the shoe that classic and vintage look.

The pictures above show the shoe constructed out of a white premium leather upper accented by the hits of black found on the ankle strap, outsole, tongue branding, OG branding on the heel and Nike Swoosh. White laces and a white midsole complete the crisp look of the shoe. Available internationally, expect to see these stateside in the coming weeks. Cop or not? Let me know what you think.

I’m a fan of the OG Air Force 1, just not in this colors, it’s a little too plain for my taste. I’d much rather pick up this pair.
