Kyrie Irving and the Cleveland Cavailers are about ready to tip-off for tonight’s game against the Sacramento Kings. Despite owning the best record in the East, the Cavaliers have been experiencing some struggles lately, with alarming losses to some mediocre competition. Still, Kyrie’s been performing the last couple of games, with his most recent outing being a free-throw’s worth shy of a 50-point game. Tonight, Kyrie aims to extend his hot streak while wearing a new PE colorway of the Nike Kyrie 3, which features an ironic mix of Miami Heat red and yellow. Check out additional photos of this PE ahead and catch these on Kyrie’s feet tonight.

After the Nike Air Presto got the ‘Utility’ construction featuring a water-resistant rubber coated upper, it looks like the Sock Dart may have felt left out. This new construction is not officially named a Utility model, but it looks much the same with a sleek coating on the upper that makes these look like a rain jacket for your feet. Ready to take on the damp conditions for the rest of this winter and spring, the new Sock Dart SE debuts in three colorways of Paramount Blue, Max Orange, and black that are all arriving now at select international retailers. Expect them in the USA soon.

The Nike, Paul George, 2K Sports triumvirate just got real this week as the Nike PG 1 made it its debut in NBA 2K17. People won’t be able to cop a pair of the shoes until later this spring but everybody will get a chance to at least wear the PG 1 digitally in the game. So what better way to celebrate the occasion and then by creating 13 different player exclusive for George to wear on the court. Apologies to Nike if they’ve already been thinking about these. We can’t replicate the gradient midsoles that George wore the other day, so they’ve got that over us at least.

Anyways, in this weeks edition of NBA 2K Kicks we create a handful of new colorways that all George can rock on the court throughout the season matching them up nicely with the Pacers blue and gold. Already included in the game is one never before seen player exclusive and the all-black pair that George wore during Martin Luther King, Jr. Day The myriad of options on the PG 1 allows for a much deeper level of customization than we’re used to seeing in other kicks that were in the game during launch, although we wish to fishscale found on the upper of the PG 1 2K were included on as an optional skin along with the fish bobber. And since one of member of the KoF staff is a big Pacers fan, we also created a white/gold and black/gold NBA Finals colorway that George could conceivably wear if there his Pacers were any good. Sorry, other Juan.

It’s been a minute since we’ve seen some new colorways of Nike Sportswear’s latest lifestyle banger, the Nike Lunarcharge.

The Lunarlon cushioning system is as comfortable as they come, and when paired with touches of suede, updated perforated branding, and a luxe neoprene slip-on construction, you can’t go wrong. Foot Patrol London is releasing a trio of new Spring 2017-ready colorways this Friday, January 27th ranging from a Jade, Black, and Camper Green. Which look is your favorite?

More international retailers are set to drop this trio of premium-tooled Nike Lunarcharge colorways this weekend, but we’re still waiting on release info regarding a stateside arrival.

Penn State’s non-athletic licensing contract with Nike expires at the end of January and Penn State University?s chapter of United Students Against Sweatshops is asking to the school to not renew it.

The students have already asked Penn State University president Eric Barron to not renew the contract due to the unethical working conditions at the company?s factory in Hansae, Vietnam. The group has reported that the Nike factory in Hansae has stopped allowing the Worker Rights Consortium to inspect the site. On top of that, the interviews with people who work in the factory have revealed poor conditions.

Samantha Matthews, vice president of Penn State United Students Against Sweatshops, read an employee’s quote to 6 News.

?If we collapse on the job and wake up in 10 or 15 minutes, we have to immediately keep working to meet target goals. If we are taken to the medic station, we still have to come back and finish our products”

Although previous meetings between United Students Against Sweatshops and Penn State University president Eric Barron have been positive and pointed towards signs of not renegotiating with Nike, university officials said on Tuesday that they intend to strike a new deal with Nike.

This is what Penn State spokesperson Lisa Powers had to say:

“We are currently discussing the terms for continuing the licensing agreement with Nike. Among the terms subject to this negotiation, Penn State has put forward provisions directed at the protection of workers? rights. If Nike and Penn State can agree to terms, we will renew the agreement.”

The United Students Against Sweatshops don’t really know what the outcome will be, but hope that President Baron steps up and makes a statement of what exactly is going to happen in the near future.

This includes the suede and mesh upper, the sole unuit, laces and lining. The only visible conterast are the Nike Air hits placed on both the tongue and heel.

The Nike Sock Dart is usually not a model that comes to mind when thinking about sneakers you could wear in the rain, and even though these two bold colorways “appear” to be better suited for the Spring/Summer, they’re actually made with water-repellant upper.

We’ve seen this done on the model before, but these latest releases stand out due to the bold hues used on the upper. Coming in Max Orange and Paramount Blue, the shoe’s upper are constructed out of a weatherproof synthetic overlay. Breaking up the tonal look are the Wolf Grey and Black accents noted on the ankle collar/heel/tongue region. Completing the look is the White midsole and Black ousole combination. Are you a fan of this look? You can now find these internationally, while a stateside release appears imminent.

Michael Jordan had ‘The Shot’, Kobe had his 81 and his farewell ‘Mamba Out’ 60, but up until last year’s NBA Finals, LeBron James didn’t have a signature on-court moment to define his career. That all changed with less than two minutes to go in Game 7 when Andre Iguodala put up a go-ahead layup on a fastbreak, only for LeBron to seemingly come out of nowhere and swipe the ball away right before it touched the glass. That incredible feat of athleticism serves as the inspiration for the debut Nike LeBron 14 colorway, as the Black Ice aesthetic pays homage to the championship-defining play with its official nickname: the Nike LeBron 14 Chase Down. Unfortunately, Nike SNKRS has postponed the release of the LeBron 14 until February 10th at 10AM EST so those of you waiting to grab the latest LeBron signature have to remain patient for a few more weeks.

Perhaps the postponement has to do with the first-ever Nike Zoom Generation “First Game” retro releasing at a select few boutiques throughout the week or even the announcement that the Christmas Day colorway known as the Nike LeBron 14 “Out of Nowhere” could potentially be releasing at select shops on Friday, January 27th and Saturday, January 28th. Whatever the reason, will you be grabbing the LeBron 14 Chase Down when it finally arrives at retailers on February 10th for $175?

For more on this pair, head over to our Where To Buy The Nike LeBron 14 “Chase Down” post. Check out more detailed shots below and stay tuned for more updates right here on Sneaker News.

It’s crazy to think, but LeBron James has been in the NBA for 14 years. His longevity is unparalleled as King James is leading the NBA in minutes per game at 32 years old and is an MVP candidate once again. Nike Basketball is slated to release his latest signature model, the Nike LeBron 14, this weekend. But perhaps a bigger story in the sneaker world is the return of his debut silhouette, the Nike Air Zoom Generation, in limited quantities with a remastered of-sorts upper that transitions the performance model into the lifestyle realm with his “First Game” colorway.

While Nike hosted their New York City raffle yesterday, select boutiques are surprising everyone with unexpected drops of the Zoom Generation First Game. KITH Brooklyn announced that they had limited quantities available today, so if you’re in BK, you still might have time to head to 233 Flatbush Avenue to secure your pair. Other retailers stocking the Nike Air Zoom Generation First Game retro include UNKNWN Miami (the shop is even hosting a raffle to win an autographed pair, Nike Soho, NikeLab 21 Mercer, Undefeated, and Cleveland shops Xhibition and NEXT.

Check out more detailed shots below and we’ll keep you updated on what other stores will be stocking this Nike Zoom Generation First Game retro throughout the week.

Aside from the notable Nike Kyrie 3 Samurai, this forthcoming hyper cobalt edition is actually noted as a homage to Kyrie Irving’s alma mater — Duke University.

Dubbed “Brotherhood,” Kyrie Irving credits a lot of his success and basketball knowledge with his time at the university and to Coach K., even when he only played in 11 games for Duke.

The sneaker’s colorway takes cues from the university’s signature palette with white dominating its upper, followed by blue accents prominent on the inner lining and outsole unit, which pronounces the overall profile. Glossy black swooshes further accentuate its design, while pops of bright crimson also appear on the outsole.

Retailing for $120, select Nike retailers nationwide such as Finishline have the pair releasing this Friday, Jan. 27th, while more availability is set for February 1st.

While this colorway of the Nike Air Huarache has released in the past, this variation is essentially slightly different for the new year.

Bearing a textile/neoprene composition, draped in the defining hue of wolf grey, the understated tone is also utilized for its leather overlays to create a clean, monochromatic profile. A darker grey hue is applied on the tongue branding, signature rubber heel cage and outsole for a subtle touch of contrast, while a crisp white midsole unit caps off the timeless design altogether.

You can purchase this pair at select Nike retailers overseas now, while a stateside release is imminent.
