Upcoming Colorways Of The Nike LunarCharge For Women

Poised to give the adidas NMD some competition, the Nike LunarCharge continues on with new colorway options this winter. Today we get a look at three dropping exclusively for the ladies in blue/black, lavender, and beige. Of the three new looks, you’ll notice something different about the softer colorways in lavender and beige: larger perforated Swooshes instead of the mini Swooshes we’ve seen on all LunarCharges so far. Is this something we’ll see in the future on the men’s version of the shoe, as well, or are the perforated Swooshes onlyh on the women’s sizing? We’ll have to wait and see. You’ll also want to stay tuned to Sneaker News for an official drop date of these three new women’s colorways of the Lunarcharge.

The Nike Air Max Uptempo 97 will be returning for the 2016 Holiday season with one of those color options being this black/white colorway.

Author’s Take

I’ve never really payed attention to the Air Max Uptempo 97 before, but now that I take a better look at the shoe I like it. I’m now starting to wonder what the shoe can look like in other colorways.

With so many Nike Sportswear silhouettes having been treated to the Triple Black colorway the last couple of years, it makes you wonder why the uber popular Flyknit Racer has been left out.

For those of you that have been asking yourself the same question, Nike has heard you and will be giving you what you want. This week we’ll see the release of the Flyknit Racer in the Triple Black colorway which looks exactly what you’d think it would look like. Black takes over the breathable Flyknit upper as well as the laces, tongue, branding, midsole, and outsole.

Check out how the sneakers look on-feet in the images above and look for them to hit retailers on November 30, 2016 for a retail price of $150.

Author’s Take

I’m a really big fan of the Flyknit Racer, but I’ m just not the biggest fan of all-black sneakers. I prefer the Blackout pair that released earlier this year that looked identical to this colorway but with a white midsole.

Nike Is Releasing An Updated Version Of The ACG Terra Albis


Nike Sportswear is dabbling in all kinds of archival models from 1997 to prep the 20th anniversary of a number of silhouettes from the Foamposite line to the likes of the Spiridon, and even the cult-classic Talaria. The latest updated ’97 model will be an oft-forgotten trail creation known as the Nike ACG Terra Albis. The short-lived Terra Albis featured Zoom Air and a number of interesting panels that alternated between a synthetic suede and sports mesh for an aggressive style perfect for casual and trail use, and today three new colorways showcase NSW’s ability to add new technology while retaining some of the old features that made the ACG Terra Albis stand out.

An updated slip-on construction adds a new comfortable fit while a ventilated fuse is accented by premium leather panels on the toe and heel to increase durability while shedding some weight for a modernized fit. So far, three colorways have been previewed ranging from an OG inspired purple and orange, a simple black and grey, and a standout sandy tan and gum.

KoF Live: Nike Lunar Control Vapor Unboxing (Video)

Nike Lunar Control Vapor 1 Nike Lunar Control Vapor 2 Nike Lunar Control Vapor 3 Nike Lunar Control Vapor 4

Somewhere someday a kid is going to ask a question that will make anybody playing golf right now feel the same way they made the generation before them felt when they asked why their clubs had wooden shafts.

“Really, you used to wear metal spikes to play?”

Spikes on golf shoes have evolved through the years, from the loud clanking that was music to every golfer’s ears (/sarcasm) to rubber that softened the blow to just doing away with spikes altogether. We’ve already seen this evolution within Nike Golf with releases like the Nike Flyknit Chukka Golf, which I’ve worn far more times off the links than on it. With the recently unveiled Nike Flyknit Elite Golf and now the new Nike Lunar Control Vapor, the swoosh is stepping it up with their new Articulated Integrated Traction outsole which was inspired by snowmobiles of all things. Rory McIlroy debuted the new shoes a few weeks ago and chances we’re going to see this on the rest of the Nike Golf roster as the 2017 (yes, it’s already begun) PGA season rolls on.

Check out our unboxing of the Nike Lunar Control Vapor in the video above and don’t forget to like us on Facebook as we open up all of our kicks for the world to see Facebook Live.
