Nike has taken the Cortez silhouette and created a new pack exclusively for women with a punch of color.

Known as the Nike WMNS Cortez Glitter Pack, the classic sneaker has been covered in a leather upper in three different colorways of white, black, and the same Arctic Orange hue that was just seen on the Just Don x Air Jordan 2. The defining feature on all three pairs is the addition of gold on the fat Swoosh logo and the Nike branding on the tongue. All three pairs are then finished off with contrasting white sole units.

Up next for the Nike SB Dunk High is this brand new Violet Dust colorway. Already available internationally, it’s only a matter of time before these drop stateside.

The Nike SB Dunk High comes in a predominantly suede construction done in the aforementioned Violet colorway. Complimenting the suede quite nicely is the White hits of leather noted on the Swoosh branding on the side panels. Tonal laces, additional White branding on the tongue and the all-White sole unite complete the look of the shoe. Thoughts on this new Nike SB Dunk High? Expect these to get a stateside release in the near future.

There’s no sneaker in history that represents a specific region so rigidly like the Cortez does with Los Angeles. This classic running shoe has become synonymous with LA gang culture for decades, and this upcoming release for the shoe’s 45th Anniversary may be an indirect homage to the Crips, the Los Angeles-based gang known for its signature blue colors. This “Long Beach County” version features special “LBC” embroidering on the heel with special insoles that commemorate the 45th Anniversary, which only suggests a much larger celebration of the shoe this Summer.

Expect the Nike Cortez XLV “Long Beach County” to release on Nike.com on June 1st.

The Nike LunarCharge Breathe just dropped two new tonal colorways that you’d expect would have already dropped by now. Above you will find the Nike LunarCharge Breathe in a women’s Triple White and Triple Red offering.

As most of you know, the Nike LunarCharge Breathe is a hybrid model heavily influenced by Nike classics such as the Air Flow, AM 90, Presto and even the LunarEpic. Constructed out of a mesh upper, the shoe also comes with a stretchy inner sleeve/bootie that adds comfort and a secure sock-like fit. Below you will find a dual-density Lunarlon foam sole and a laser-cut outsole that adds even more comfort to the shoe. Out now, find both of these pairs directly through Nike for the retail price of $110 each.

Kobe Bryant has played on basketball’s biggest stage a total of 7 times and took home the Larry O’Brien trophy during 5 of those trips to the NBA Finals. Throughout Kobe’s postseason journey we saw plenty of awesome White/Metallic Gold PEs in honor of the championship prize, and now it looks like the Nike Kobe AD “Big Stage” will be the next in line once it releases at retailers on June 3rd. While Kobe won’t be there in person, that Mamba DNA will be there in spirit on the feet of guys like Andre Iguodala, Shaun Livingston, J.R. Smith, and Kyle Korver if that Golden State Warriors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers matchup happens for the third straight season like many are predicting. The Kobe AD Big Stage features a pristine white engineered mesh upper while a contrasting metallic gold Swoosh matches the head-turning heel. A classic dose of gum lands on the bottom. Essentially, this is the Nike Kobe AD “Summer Pack” with a premium NBA Finals twist. Check out more photos below and grab your pair on June 3rd for $160 USD.

We already know that the Air Jordan 1 “Wings” will be limited to 19,400 pairs, each individually numbered for a premium take on Michael Jordan’s iconic first signature sneaker with Nike. Today we get word that the coveted “Wings” take on the Air Jordan 1 will release on May 17th via the Nike SNKRS Draw system for $200 USD.

The Jordan 1 Wings celebrates Michael Jordan’s historic inner confidence through a gold undertone layer paired with a black leather upper. The heel features the silhouette of the iconic outstretched arms pose from the 1989 ‘Wings’ poster that’s probably found its way onto your bedroom wall at some point in your life.

The ‘Wings’ colorway is also a part of the ongoing Jordan Brand Wings initiative to inspire youth to believe in themselves through promoting the importance of education. The Jumpman has since partnered with teachers, mentors, and numerous communities to fund programs that will instill confidence in the next generation.

Kevin Durant and the Golden State Warriors erased a 25 point deficit in the 2nd half and ended up stealing Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals against the Spurs at home Sunday afternoon. Durant even managed to put up another 30-point game in his upcoming signature model, the Nike KD 10 in an “Anniversary” colorway with a multi-colored Swoosh that pays homage to all of the different uniforms KD has worn over the years from college to the pros. You can check out official detailed images of the KD 10 after getting a look at this upcoming Nike KD 10 Oreo colorway slated to release later this summer. The KD 10 Oreo is a standard combination of black and white Flyknit throughout the mid-top upper while that unique lacing system is somewhat camouflaged thanks to a matching speckling on the laces. The Zoom Air midsole unit returns once again on this model and manages to keep things clean thanks to a simple all-white look. Expect this colorway to arrive in the near future and stay updated on a coming Release Date right here on Sneaker News.

As if the Nike Mayfly wasn’t already minimalist enough, this summer it goes ‘Lite’ with a lightweight perforated ripstop nylon upper. The Mayfly Lite Breathe is perhaps the most lightweight lifestyle shoe on the market, ready to keep your feet cool and comfortable all summer long. Originally designed as an ultra-minimalist racing shoe constructed in Tyvek material and intended to break down after just a few races, the Mayfly somehow gets even lighter with this latest edition, arriving now in the University Red and Pure Platinum colorways you see here at Nike Sportswear retailers including Sneaker Politics. Put on a pair, and you might forget you’re even wearing them.

This new colorway of the Nike Air Force 1 High won’t turn as many heads as say an all-red pair, but it will be appreciated by fans of the classic silhouette.

Taking a look at this Nike Air Force 1 High we see that it features a black leather all throughout the upper with additional black detailing on the ankle strap, laces, tongue, and heel. However, the star of the shoe is the multicolor print/pattern that has been placed on the Swoosh, tongue logo, and the strap liner. A white sole has been added to provide further contrast. This Air Force 1 with a splash of color can be scooped up at select Nike retailers now for $110.

If you haven’t picked up a pair of Prestos at this point then you may want to consider adding a pair to your collection ASAP. One of the best things about the Presto is the fact that Nike makes dope colorways for both men and women.

The rest of the upper is also done in Wolf Grey with the only contrast coming on the midsole which has been done in white.

After countless leaked looks, Nike has finally officially unveiled the Nike KD 10 as it is scheduled to make its debut later this month.

Nike describes the Flyknit construction on the KD 10 as the best yet on a basketball shoe ? engineered precisely for flexibility, breathability and support just where needed.

?I got a pair of the Flyknit Racer during the 2012 games in London and immediately loved them. That shoe is so stylish, so innovative and so comfortable. I?ve been asking for Flyknit in my shoe and the KD10 is my best shoe yet,? says Durant.

Flyknit advancements allow designer Leo Chang and his Flyknit engineers to create the most advanced Flyknit ever produced for basketball; a tour de force of the technological capacity mixing low stretch, high-tenacity (think seat belt) yarn at stress points and a high stretch yarn at the collar and across the forefoot. This blend yields a perfect balance of basketball-specific support and a sock-like hug.

The unconventional lacing system is designed to keep the foot snugly supported to the midsole. On the underfoot lies the full-length Nike Zoom Air unit debuted in the KD9, enhanced for durability and tuned for maximum impact cushioning. It?s taken on the reputation as Nike?s best basketball air bag.

The Nike KD 10 will makes its debut on May 26th in the Anniversary colorway that is done in a faint blue, with a Swoosh featuring intermixed team colors from Durant?s teams since college that include the UT Longhorns, Seattle Sonics, OKC Thunder, and Golden State Warriors. This mélange, bespoke Swoosh celebrating a 10-year anniversary is a first for Nike. Next up we’ll see the Still KD (white) colorway drop on June 1st.
