Today, Nike and FIBA, the International Basketball Federation — announced a new multi-year partnership covering FIBA?s senior men?s, women?s and youth flagship competitions worldwide.

Nike will be the official partner for product spanning apparel, footwear and equipment, as well as marketing at FIBA?s biggest competitions, including the FIBA Basketball World Cup.

As such, it has official sponsorship rights for all men?s and women?s and youth editions of FIBA?s competitions, including FIBA Basketball World Cups (2019, 2023 and 2027) and Qualifiers, FIBA Women?s Basketball World Cups, FIBA Continental Cups and Qualifiers, FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournaments, FIBA U17 and U19 Basketball World Cups.

?We are very excited about this partnership with FIBA,? said Craig Zanon, VP/GM of Nike Global Basketball. ?FIBA represents the highest level of international basketball competition, and Nike is committed to using our unmatched global reach to help foster player development and inspire fans around the world.?

As part of the new agreement, both organizations will promote the game with marketing communication and engagement of top players and ambassadors. In the first phase, this consumer connection will focus on the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2019 to be played across eight cities in China.

Most recently, LeBron James and others from the Nike family trained with the U23 Chinese National Basketball team in Beijing. James, along with some of his coaches and trainers, participated in the training camp with the goal of preparing the U23 players for upcoming FIBA competitions.

FIBA recently announced major changes to their qualifying system, one result of which will be international teams playing more often. This new system will feature up to 1,200 international contests in the lead-up to FIBA?s showcase event, the FIBA Basketball World Cup.

?FIBA?s new qualifying system is a win for basketball fans around the world,? said Lynn Merritt, VP of Global Basketball Sports Marketing. ?With this increased schedule and new emphasis on the international game, we look forward to helping connect fans to the energy and inspiration of their national teams and players.?

The agreement also sees Nike become the title partner for FIBA?s World Rankings, in addition to FIBA licensing rights.

The Nike Air Presto Fly, a modern interpretation of the classic Air Presto, is treated in a versatile hue of midnight navy to join alongside a recent triple white variation.

Flaunting a slightly sleeker profile, the model’s aesthetic is notably free of its traditional caging construction, which now inherits a dynamic flywire system instead. Essentially more lightweight and breathable overall with its perforated mesh composition, synthetics on the toe cap, heel and contrasting white Swooshes reinforce the design overall.

All adhered atop the model?s familiar full-length rubber sole unit in white with navy accents, you can find this version at select Nike retailers overseas now, while a stateside release is expected soon.

Sandy Bodecker’s storied history at Nike dates back to 1982 when he joined the brand as a footwear wear-test coordinator. Since then, he’s held various positions within the brand and currently serves as the VP of Global Design, but perhaps the role that was the most influential to sneaker culture was with Nike SB. In 2001, he was named the General Manager of the new Nike Skateboarding category; SB Dunks were a major driver of sneakerhead hype and the success of Skate category as a whole.

There’s no question that Sandy has some SB Dunk gems in his personal stash, and a quick glance at his Instagram page reveals a never-before-seen “Logo” Dunk, a pair of Highs made for Ichiro, and more. As Nike SB continues its #15YearsOfDunk celebration, Sandy will most definitely unearth more gems. Check out some of the gems below.

This is why Nike always wins. No matter how hard other brands might try to boost their profile, there’s no topping emerging from the freakin’ DeLorean with Michael J. Fox in a pair of Nike Mags on the Oscars stage when it comes to exposure. And that’s exactly what happened courtesy of Seth Rogen tonight during The Academy Awards.

The actor accompanied Fox to present the award for best Film Editing (wait, what?) in the Mags. No word on whether it was the 2011 pair or last year’s ultra-limited power-lacing edition.
