Dropping on Black Friday is this “Obsidian” colorway of the KD 9 that features a combination of Obsidian and Dark Purple Dust throughout the Flyknit upper with Black detailing completing the look.

I don’t like the colorway but I also don’t hate it. There’s so many other sneakers releasing on Black Friday that I’m sure these will get overlooked.

It’s one of the nicer colorway I’ve seen on the model as of late, but I really don’t mess with this silhouette regardless of what it looks like.

The Nike Internationalist Mid Utility Perfect For the Fall

NIKE INTERNATIONALIST MID UTILITY 1 NIKE INTERNATIONALIST MID UTILITY 2 NIKE INTERNATIONALIST MID UTILITY 4 NIKE INTERNATIONALIST MID UTILITY 5 NIKE INTERNATIONALIST MID UTILITY 6 NIKE INTERNATIONALIST MID UTILITY3

Shades of Green are great colors to wear during the Fall season, at least in my opinion. If you happen to think so as well, take a look at this Nike Internationalist Mid Utility rocking Olive Flak and Grove Green.

The version of the Internationalist comes in mid-top fashion while also being transformed into footwear that’s ready for the winter. The mid-top comes with an upper that has a weather-proof layer making it a great option for those rainy days. The blend of Olive Flak and Grove Green sitting on top of a White/Gum sole is a perfect look for the current season. Priced at $130, expect these to drops in the near future at a retailer near you.

It’s hardly even cold and it hardly ever rains where I live. With that being said the shoe is nice enough for me to still want to wear a pair.

Release Date: Nike Air Max Plus Le Requin

Nike Air Max Plus Nike Air Max Plus 1 Nike Air Max Plus 2 Nike Air Max Plus 4 Nike Air Max Plus 5 Nike Air Max Plus 6 Nike Air Max Plus 3

Previously noted as the Swimming Pool Nike Air Max Plus, the true story behind this particular iteration of the classic silhouette is revealed to be “Le Requin.”

Translated in French for “The Shark,” the moniker was conceived from the original Hyper Blue colorway for its gradient-colored upper that is reminiscent of a shark?s unique texture.

While the aesthetic also evokes the deep depths of the ocean, the sublimated graphics across its upper emulates a water shadow over a shark?s body, while the white gradient running below mimic?s a shark?s belly.

Retailing for $175, you can purchase this limited edition pair at select Nike retailers worldwide starting November 23.

Author’s Take

I?m generally a fan of runners and this style is appealing overall. The theme is pretty cool and the graphic looks great. I?m not too keen on it, although, it’s pretty stylish.

Kobe Bryant showcases his admiration for the Philippines from past Asia tours in conjunction with Nike Basketball through this special edition of the Nike Kobe 11, regarded as his last on-court sneaker.

Author’s Take

I would?ve thought that the nation?s flag colors would be utilized instead, but, I?m not against this colorway either. I guess I?m just biased towards the shades.

Like our EIC has shared, I still don?t get how this colorway correlates with the character. It?s a nice simple variation overall so I don?t dislike it.

Another Nike Air Max Plus Pool Is Releasing


The Nike Air Max Plus has always been a running silhouette that’s been popular with the European market and it just started to catch on stateside within the past couple of years. Nike Sportswear has been revamping the head-turning design with a number of new material upgrades – think the Nike Air Max Plus “Satin Pack” – for example, a collection that flipped the traditional gradient mesh on its head for a more lifestyle-ready aesthetic. Now we have some more good news – the Nike Air Max Plus “Swimming Pool” will be releasing in more aquatic colorways next week.

The Nike Air Max Plus Swimming Pool ditches the protective flame-like cage overlay for a stripped down vibe that focuses on a truly unique water-pattern in a hypnotizing shade of aqua. A white gradient eventually leads to a basic white midsole and outsole combination which strips the visible air of its well, visibility, and instead clouds the windows up with a matte white finish to match.

Continue onward for a full look at this special edition Nike Air Max Plus release and know that both “Pool” inspired colorways will be available in Europe on November 24th with a stateside release to follow. Head over to our release dates page for more of the latest updates.

First Look At The Nike Kyrie 3

The third iteration of the Kyrie signature shoe saga, the Kyrie 3, is coming soon. It goes back to a classic Nike Swoosh placement on the upper and removes the strap that was a prominent feature on its predecessor, the Kyrie 2. The outsole scoops upwards to give the Cavs star guard all the traction he needs when he’s breaking down an opponent with his handles or hitting cold-blooded threes. Although the Nike Kyrie 3 does not feature a strap, the forefoot features taped panel that provides the lockdown.

Kyrie himself confirmed a release for January 21st, 2017, although it is not likely this “Duke” colorway that will be the debut release. Currently, Nike has plans for one more Kyrie 2 hit, the “What The” Kyrie 2, for mid-December.

A New Colorway of The Nike Kyrie 3 Has Surfaced

NIke Kyrie 3 1 NIke Kyrie 3 2 NIke Kyrie 3 3

We got our initial look at the Nike Kyrie 3 not too long ago. Today we’ve come across another colorway of the upcoming Kyrie Irving signature shoe.

Right off the bat, the first thing you notice is the lack of a cross-strap on the shoe’s upper. The shoe is still a mid-top but the aesthetics completely change without that strap.Most of the body is made out of a fused mesh, while something new I’m also able to point out is the fact that the paneling and rear portion appears to be done in a new texture/pattern. This particular colorway has most of the shoe done in White, while Blue hits are noted on the lining and sole., whereas the Black hues take care the the sneaker’s branding. Thoughts on the Kyrie 3 in this colorway? Stay tuned for a release date, but remember that Kyrie has already mentioned that we?ll be seeing the Nike Kyrie 3 starting Christmas Day (on his feet).

I was getting used to seeing Kyries with straps. It may take some time to getting used to this new look, but I think it has potential.

Baylor University Get Their Own Nike KD 9 Team PE

Nike KD 9  1

Another school program gets their own PE version of the Nike KD 9. This time it’s none other than Baylor University. Here we have our first look at the Nike KD 9 Baylor PE. The team recently wore the bold sneaker which consists of a Black base upper accented brightly by the Volt hits noted on the laces, branding, Nike Swoosh and sole unit. Put them next to the team’s uniform, and it’s a perfect match. Thoughts on this PE? Get a good look up top and let us know in the comments below.

The silhouette is nice, but I’ve had enough of Volt on sneakers. I’ll hold of on anything with Volt for a good year or two.
