When we first saw the Nike Cortez with new stop sign logos on the heel late last year, we were a bit perplexed. But now it all makes sense. Nike clues us all in with the debut of the original white, red, and blue colorway also featuring the stop sign, which is a reference to the “Stop Pre” shirts circulating around at the height of legendary long-distance runner Steve Prefontaine’s career in the early 1970s?back in the days when Nike with their new Cortez model were just getting started. This new premium edition of the iconic Cortez not only has the stops signs on the heels, but also receives a ’70s style graphic on each insole, the text “Tradition Never Stops” on the inside of the tongue, and a custom drawstring bag to store them in. The “Stop Pre” Cortez will launch January 28th on the Nike SNKRS app, and will also be available at select Nike Sportswear retailers.

Nike fans are well familiar with Jun Takahashi’s UNDERCOVER label for the numerous high-tech running collaborations with NikeLab Gyakusou over the past couple of years, but the Japanese imprint has had a long love affair with the Nike Dunk as well. Not only did they transform the Nike Dunk Sky Hi during the whole ‘sneaker wedge’ movement a couple years back, but UNDERCOVER has now added a Huarache-like tooling to the iconic basketball turned skate model with the upcoming UNDERCOVER Nike Jungle Dunk collaboration slated to arrive at international retailers on January 18th, 2017.

The UNDERCOVER Nike Jungle Dunk benefits from a premium tumbled leather base in a head-turning Loyal Blue, additional Dynamic Flywire, a natural motion inspired outsole unit that’s rugged enough to withstand the toughest of winter elements and new weather resistant tape tooling on the toebox. But perhaps the most head-turning addition to this boot-inspired Nike Dunk is the heel cage belonging to Tinker Hatfield’s 1991 classic, the Nike Air Huarache. The back reads ‘Balance’ in black to match the Swoosh branding while an aggressive jagged pattern matches the clean white midsole and outsole. What do you think of UNDERCOVER’s latest collaboration with Nike Sportswear?

Check out more detailed shots below and grab your pair on January 18th. Be sure to head over to our always-updated Release Dates page for more of the latest and greatest headed to retailers this January.

Ben Kirschner’s Nike SF-AF1 was more than just a pleasant surprise when the lifestyle takedown of Bruce Kilgore’s legendary basketball model released back in Fall 2016 – it was the hottest shoe of the season and it wasn’t too hard to see why. The militarized version of the Nike Air Force 1 saw a high-top extension with a unique dual-strap construction arrive in a number of colorways and there are even more tonal looks on the way slated to release next Thursday, January 19th. Today we get a look at a revamped Nike SF-AF1 Black Gum colorway featuring a little more black than the past variation thanks to a matching midsole unit.

This Nike SF-AF1 Black Gum also features a premium tumbled leather construction to differentiate itself from the original Black/Gum pair while a ballistic nylon adds weather resistance to the fold. The traditional outsole unit means that you can expect to pick up your pair in your normal AF1 size even despite the new military-inspired construction throughout. Are you excited about the return of the Nike Special Field Air Force 1?

Be sure to check out more photos of the latest Nike SF-AF1 Black Gum pair below and know that you can grab your size from select spots like Rock City Kicks starting next Thursday, January 19th for $165 USD. Do note that it doesn’t look like the latest batch of colorways will be accompanied by the extra paracord strap, but we’ll keep you updated on this fact once we have confirmation.

Nike looks to have a great 2017. Aside from bringing back highly coveted retros, another way they look to gain more consumers is by releasing brand new lifestyle models that people will fall in love with. Enter the brand new Nike Air Max Flair.

The Nike Air Max Flair is technically considered a running shoe, but just like many other runners out there, this pair also has a lifestyle look and feel to them. The show does come with a full-length Air Max unit, which ends up blending in nicely with the lifestyle appeal that upper has to offer. The upper comes with asymmetrical lacing, bold AIR graphics, and the infamous inner bootie that we all know is a hot feature nowadays. No concrete release date just yet, but expect them to release sometime next month as a part of Foot Locker Europe?s ?Hottest Month Ever? campaign. Thoughts on the brand new Nike Air Max Flair? Doesn’t it have a bit of a Air More Uptempo look to them? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
