The Nike PG 1 Ivory Is The Most Luxurious Colorway Yet
By SoleInsider
The latest unveiled Nike PG 1 colorway is not only one of the cleanest ones yet, there’s no denying it’s also the most luxurious one. Seen above (in GS sizing), take a look at the official images of the Nike PG 1 Ivory.
Once again opting to go with “real materials”, this par of PG 1s comes with both a leather and suede build on the upper. Done in an Ivory colorway, the shoe utilizes a python skin texture for the rear and medial portion of the shoe, while a brushed suede in a darker tone is placed on the Nike Swoosh on both the lateral and medial side. Further adding to the luxe look of the shoe is the use of a gum bottom and Ivory mesh for the rest of the upper. As of right now, the shoe appears in GS sizing, we only hope that Nike also decided to drop these in adult sizes. Is this the best colorway of the Nike PG 1 thus far?
The Nike PG 1 Ferocity Will Also Release In GS Sizes
By SoleInsider
If you wear GS sizes and were looking to pick up the Nike PG 1 in the debut Shining colorway last week then you were left with disappointment because the shoe did not release in GS sizes. But you’re in luck this weekend because the Ferocity colorway WILL be releasing for the GS crowd.
Covered in a Pacers-inspired colorway of Obsidian and White, this PG 1 is also hit with University Gold and Wolf Grey accents to complete the Pacers look. The splashes of Hyper Violet on the eyelets and heel tab are a nod to his mother Paulette.

One of the most impressive features of the all-new Nike PG 1 is that the shoes make use of leathers and suedes that are typically shunned by today’s push for lightweight and breathable. The upcoming “Ivory” colorway pushes it further with python skin textures on the upper with nappy suedes on the Swoosh logos. The ivory white upper is matched with a gum outsole for one of the sleekest color-combos on a basketball shoe out right now. And the best part? The shoe is just $110. A release date for the Nike PG 1 “Ivory” hasn’t been revealed just yet, but expected it in the coming weeks.

By SoleInsider
Last year we saw the debut of the Nike ACG Lupinek Flyknit, the latest All Conditions Gear silhouette that is versatile enough to be worn casually or under harsh weather conditions.
Now in 2017 they have taken the Lupinek under the knife as the shoe has been converted into a low top. Here we see the shoe in Cargo Khaki which has been covered in an olive hue, including the Flyknit upper and the the leather tongue and heel, and the rugged sole unit. If you’re a fan of this sneaker from Nike ACG then you can pick up this Cargo Khaki colorway of the Lupinek Flyknit Low now directly from Nike for $225.
The Nike Air Footscape Woven Chukka Gets Covered In Light Bone
By SoleInsider
The Nike Air Footscape Woven gets a new tonal look for the upcoming Spring season as we take a look at the shoe in this Light Bone colorway.
Taking a look at this lifestyle runner from the Swoosh we see that the shoes comes covered in light grey throughout the entire upper that has been constructed primarily out of suede. The signature lacing system that connects with the woven mudguard is also done in grey. Neoprene and leather detailing has also been added on the ankle with a white midsole and black outsole wrapping things up. You’ll be able to grab yours from select Nike retailers soon.
Smokey Blue has landed on yet another Nike Sportswear silhouette as we take a look at this new colorway of the Nike Dunk High for women.
This new Dunk comes constructed out of leather and suede on the upper with the majority of the shoe being done in leather and suede landing on the toe, ankle/heel, and the Swoosh logo. The rest of the branding, laces, and midsole have all been done in blue as well to keep things tonal up top. Down below we have a gum rubber outsole for that classic look of contrast. Ladies can find this pair of Nike Dunks at select Nike retailers in the next few days.
Nike Will Debut A New Cleat At The NFL Scouting Combine
By SoleInsider
Nike is debuting a new football cleat at the 2017 NFL Scouting Combine this week in Indianapolis known as the Nike Vapor 4.2.
The cleat, built for linear speed, gets its name from the elusive 4.2 second barrier that no athlete has been able to break at the NFL Scouting Combine. The Nike Vapor 4.2 weighs 6.9 oz and incorporates a full-length carbon plate for propulsion. The cleat is exclusively for 2017 NFL Scouting Combine athletes and will not be available at retail.
Exclusive live coverage of the 2017 NFL Scouting Combine can be viewed on NFL Network beginning March 3 through the 6th starting each day at 9:00 PM Eastern.
If the latest rumors end up being true, we may end up seeing the return of the Nike Air Max 97 Gold later on this year. The return of the Nike Air Max 97 Silver Bullet was a big success for Nike, so why not bring back another dope colorway from the model, right? It only makes sense.
The last time this colorway dropped was back in 2010, so theres a good chance that anyone who owns a pair (and actually wore them) is in need of a fresh new one. Metallic Gold takes care of most of the wavy base, while hits of Black, White and Red take care of the branding, sole and lining. The pair you see above was spotted at Nike HQ, which hopefully means the release date is not too far away. Stay tuned as release info is sure to follow.

By SoleInsider
Never slowing down is the Nike Flyknit Racer, which shows up in a second must-have colorway of the month right after the “Triple White” colorway drops, this “Blue Glow” rendition. Following the Triple White colorway on March 8th, this version available only two days later on March 10th features a detailed blend of Blue Glow, yellow, and black Flyknit across the upper with solid black accents and a white midsole. Peruse the official images from Nike of the excellent new colorway here, and mark that March 10th release date on your calendar if you’re after a pair.

The Chicken Connoisseur is taking YouTube by storm with his hilariously addictive reviews of fried chicken wings. For his most recent episode of Pengest Munch, he landed in New York City with A$AP Bari, who took him three “hood spots” for fried chicken and more. Before they got to the grub, The Chicken Connoisseur gave his personal take on the recently dropped VLONE x Air Force 1, and if you’ve been a follower of the Pengest Munch movement, you already know what to expect. Watch the full video below.
The “Silver Bullet” Nike Air Max 97 wasted no time coming back this year for its 20th birthday, and it looks like another favorite look for the shoe is also returning to join the party. That’s correct, the metallic gold edition of the wavy Air Max design that hasn’t been on the shelves since 2010 is making a return. You can get a first look at the new retro, which was recently spotted at Nike HQ, and stay tuned to Sneaker News for a confirmed release date.
Buy, Pass, Wait: Nike PG 1 Ferocity, adidas NMD City Sock 2, Air Max Month Begins
By SoleInsider
Welcome to this week’s Jordan retro and Yeezy-free edition of Buy, Pass, Wait, where the Kicks On Fir… wait, what? There’s a Jordan retro dropping this week? Which one? The 15s? Oh, those don’t count, come on, imaginary voice in my head.
Anyways, this week’s edition takes a look at a pair of signature releases from two athletes who made their sneaker debuts this season, the proper sequel to the adidas NMD CitySock, and the beginning of what is shaping up to be a long month if you’re a Nike Air Max fan of any sort.
Juan Martinez, Editor-In-Chief: (PASS) The 2K colorway is coming sooner rather than later so I’m holding off until then. Probably won’t be an easy cop because the buzz for the shoe is high at the moment so good luck if you’re trying for these this weekend.
Renz Ofiaza, News: (PASS) Design-wise, I’m a fan of the silhouette, but not in this colorway, I’m all for the previous blacked-out Shining theme, although, die-hard Pacers fanatics should be interested in this pair.
Juan Carrillo, News: (BUY) Hopefully these are easier to get than last week’s PG 1 release. I’ve yet to try them on (heard they’re narrow and hard to put on), but I’ll just pick up a pair and see how it all goes. It’s a Pacers colorway, this is definitely a good one to start of my PG 1 collection.
Andres Carrillo, News: (PASS) I like this pair better than the “Shining” colorway that released last week, but it’s not one that I can see myself wearing too often. I still need to see the PG 1 in person before I think about buying it.
EIC Juan: (BUY) I like both colorways so watch me lose my mind when these get a wider release in a few weeks and try to justify spending a whole lot of money. I am not normal.
Renz: (PASS) I would prefer the NMD City Sock a bit more instead. But, I do like the asymmetrical collar and overall colorways. I’m not just a fan of the elongated three stripe motif on its upper.
News Juan: (PASS) Eh, it’s not very appealing to me. The strap going down the middle of the shoe is kind of a turn off, but I guess that’s what makes it different, right? Big fan of KITH collabs, but this is one I could live without.
Andres: (PASS) I didn’t like the original City Sock and I don’t like this one either. The shoe just looks too plain in my opinion. It literally looks like a sock with a Boost midsole.
Renz: (WAIT) Since I’m older, I appreciate this design a lot more. The colorway is a classic and I’ll consider at a much lower price point.
News Juan: (PASS) Clean colorway but I’ve never really been a fan of the 15s. It was ahead of its time when it initially dropped and after all these years later I still think it has a very futuristic look it. With that said, I don’t think it’s a Jordan model I’d like to own.
Andres: (PASS) This might be an OG colorway, but I’m just not a fan of the Jordan 15. I’ve yet to see a colorway that I would even think about buying.
Nike Air Max 1 OG
Nike
EIC Juan: (BUY) I’d go for the blue pair just to be the contrarian jerk who doesn’t just buy the most obvious one. I had no idea how much the shoe’s shape has changed through the years but that matters little to me because the 1 in its OG colors has always looked pretty good.
Renz: (BUY) You really can’t go wrong with either colorway. Each are classics and certainly a must-have for any sneaker collector in my opinion.
News Juan: (BUY) Either colorway would be dope. I doubt I get a chance at scooping up both, so if I had to make a choice, I’d go with the Red pair. Must have if you ‘re a fan of Nike. Glad to see these make a return.
Andres: (BUY) If you’re a fan of Nike then this is definitely shoe that you need in your collection. Everything about the shoe is classic and timeless. I hope I’m able to pick up a pair.
Nike Air Max 90 Ultra Flyknit
Finish Line
EIC Juan: (BUY) The 90 is my favorite Air Max of all the oldies that the swoosh loves to bring back so I was very excited to hear it was going to get the Flyknit treatment for the Air Max Day Month. After getting hands-on and feet-on with them, let’s just say I’m ever more impressed than I thought I would be.
Renz: (BUY) I’m an advocate for this silhouette and it really looks amazing with the incorporation of flyknit. The inaugural lineup is a solid offering, but I prefer the Infrared version more due to its OG theme.
News Juan: (WAIT) The Flyknit Air Max 1 released last year and people slept on it so hard that you were eventually able to find it at 50% off. The Flyknit Air Max 90 is just as clean, but I really hope people sleep on it so that I could eventually pick up a pair for less than $100.
Andres: (WAIT) I like the Air Max 90 and I love Flyknit. So this is a perfect match, right? Well yeah, but I wouldn’t pay retail for a pair. It seems like these will go on sale in the future so I’ll just wait it out till then.
adidas Harden Vol. 1 Fear The Fork
adidas
EIC Juan: (PASS) Vol. 1 has been spectacular so far with colorways ranging from dope to at least interesting to look at. This one actually falls victim to a far superior Grayvy (yes, it’s supposed to be a pun) colorway that dropped earlier this week.
Renz: (WAIT) I prefer the silhouette in monochromatic finishes but this color combo is certainly an appealing option. I’m not too keen on owning it though, but at a lower price, I might have to.
News Juan: (BUY) adidas continues to release solid colorways of the Harden Vol.1, this one is no different. The Yellow definitely pops and gives the shoe a really clean overall appearance.
Andres: (PASS) Decent colorway, but the “Grayvy” pair that also released this week is the winner of the two. I still need to try on the Harden Vol.1. I’m a fan of how it looks, now I just need to see how they feel on my feet.
While Nike Taiwan listed this particular colorway of the Nike Flyknit Racer to debut on March 10th, the stateside release has just been confirmed for that day as well.
Officially dubbed, “Crew Blue”, the sleek silhouette is defined by a mixture of blue glow, black and yellow strike tones across its flyknit construction. Finally, a clean black and white sole unit with light blue Swooshes on the outsole completes the eye-catching profile.
Retailing for $150, you can purchase this pair at select Nike retailers starting next Friday, March 10.
