Introducing The Nike Air Max 97 Ultra Jacquard 2.0
By SoleInsider
Nike has been teasing the 20th anniversary of the Nike Air Max 97 with limited releases right before everyone got a chance to grab the iconic Silver Bullet colorway a few weeks back. Next up is another precious metal inspiration with the Nike Air Max 97 Metallic Gold slated to release at retailers on May 17th. Of course, these archival silhouettes always get a lightweight Ultra tooling for a more modern lifestyle-ready approach, but we didn’t expect the AM97 to get a woven update like it has with the above pictured Nike Air Max 97 Ultra Jacquard 2.0. The name is a mouthful, but it definitely looks sleek enough and true enough to form thanks to the side panel waves and cross-hatching on the Jacquard woven upper. There’s still no word on an official Release Date for this updated Air Max 97 creation, but you can expect it to release sometime around May 17th when the other silhouettes in the “Metallic Gold” Collection release. Stay tuned for more info right here on Sneaker News.

The Nike KD 10 comes in a low-top and slip-on construction. Its colorway consists of a White Flyknit upper accompanied by the suede hits placed on the suede cage overlay. The unique lacing system has the laces extending all across the forefoot to the point that the eyelets are actually connected to the midsole. Hits of Metallic Silver take care of the branding, while a White full-length Zoom Air unit down low completes the main features of the shoe. Said to be dropping on June 5th for $150, stay tuned as more info and images of the KD 10 begin to surface. Initial thoughts?

Nike Football Designs New Cleats Specifically For Linemen
By SoleInsider
Nike Football has changed the game for linemen with the creation of the all-new Nike Force Savage Elite Cleat. Nike wanted to build something strong and protective that enables the athlete to be equally powerful and fast. And with the Force Savage Elite they believe that they achieved that.
The Nike Force Savage Elite’s strength comes in the form of 15 twisting triangular studs that line the outsole. Designers also turned to triangles to provide armor on top of the cleat. ?Offensive linemen get stepped on a lot when they?re trying to protect the quarterback,? explains Erin Cochrane, Lead Footwear Designer for Nike?s latest lineman-dedicated cleat, ?so we wanted their cleat to act as a steel-toed boot.? Tough triangular structures (made out of a material called Kurim, which is a cast polyurethane) sit on top of a molded foam package on the forefoot to shield painful stud stabs. To learn more about the design details of the Nike Force Savage Elite Cleat, click here. The cleat is available beginning today on nike.com.

Man Receives Moldy Pair Of Supreme x Nike Air More Uptempos
By SoleInsider
Imagine this. With the grace of the sneaker gods you were able to get through online last week and scoop up the extremely hyped/coveted Supreme x Nike Air More Uptempo. So now you’re patiently waiting to get them in the mail. Then they arrive and you see them covered in….mold? WTF!?! Sounds like a made-up story, right? Well unfortunately it’s not because this actually happened to someone.
A person with the username @remzashoedle on Instagram posted pictures of the red pair that he received in the mail this week, and as you can see, the shoes are damaged with mold before he even got a chance to wear them. It also appears that the box has water damage on it, so that explains the mold. Check out the photos below to see the condition that this guy’s sneakers came in. Hopefully someone at Nike/Supreme gets wind of this and they right their wrongs.

Nike Unveils Cleats For NFL Linemen Inspired By The Incredible Hulk
By SoleInsider
Being a lineman might not be the sexiest position in football – the rare players that do et head-turning PE cleats or even the chance to have a signature off-the-field model are usually the wide receivers and defensive backs capable of making highlight plays – but Nike is about to change that with their latest football cleats inspired by the Incredible Hulk. The NFL totes some of the largest, strongest humans in the world. At 300+ pounds the guys protecting the quarterback and opening up holes for running backs have gone unloved by the footwear industry, until now. The Nike Force Savage Elite was designed with both offensive and defensive linemen in mind and features revolutionary twisting triangular studs on the outsole for 360-degree traction. Kurim returns here for the triangular structures on the outsole while a foam forefoot shield from stud stabs. Lineman also often wear tape to support their ankles, so Nike updated the ankle collar with a wrestling boot inspiration that locks the foot and ankle into place. Lead Footwear Designer Erin Cochrane wanted the Nike Force Save Elite cleat to display linemen’s oversized personalities too, saying: ?The linemen dance and have fun ? and for the first time, we?re designing for their physical demands and personalities. Linemen wear what everyone calls big uglys. Our goal was to make linemen look cool, to give them big sexys for once.? The Nike Force Savage Elite joins other Nike Football Force options like the Nike Alpha, Nike Vapor, and Nike Force, all available today on Nike.com.
