This quickstrike Nike Air Max Zero is actually based on a classic colorway — the famous metallic silver Air Max 97, which is also scheduled to celebrate its 20th anniversary next year.

Essentially honoring the respective theme with a tonal silver finish throughout its entire upper, the signature red accents are prominent across the heel and tongue via branding, while it’s topped off with a crisp white midsole unit, in addition to subtle hits of black on the outsole.

Priced at $150, you can purchase this latest pair at select Nike retailers nationwide now.

Inspired by the AM 97 or not, this iteration is really a solid option. I’m just a fan of the colorway and the silhouette overall.

Nike just released a pretty sweet pack as they link up with tennis legend Roger Federer to drop the Nike Tennis Classic Ultra RF Pack. The pack is comprised of two different colorways done in a premium/luxe fashion. Let’s take a closer look at the two.

Coming in your choice of Black and White or a tonal Wheat, both iterations will come constructed out of a nubuck upper accompanied by the Nike Swoosh on the paneling done in perforated fashion. Inside the shoe you will find a neoprene bootie for added comfort and style. Additional features on the shoe include the tonal waxed laces with gold tips, pull tabs on the heel, White rubber midsoles and the Nike branded leather tassels. RF (Roger Federer) branding appears on the tongue tab to help give the shoe even more of a unique look. The Nike Tennis Classic Ultra RF Pack is available in-store only at the Nike x Kith Shop as well as in KITH for the retail price of $200.

Kobe Bryant has always expressed his admiration for the Philippines during past Asia tours in conjunction with Nike Basketball, and to further showcase his appreciation for the country, this special Nike Kobe 11 is unveiled.

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.

About two months ago, Nike began releasing Nike SB Dunks that were inspired by vintage packaging. In other words, the shoes were inspired by the color of the box the shoes came in. What you see above, is the entire Nike SB Dunk Box Collection brought together for your viewing pleasure.

In years past, Nike SB has released their sneakers in boxes that came in Orange, Grey, Pink and Black, now those same hues are utilized on an SB Dunk Low/High. With each shoe box color representing an era in skate culture, each sneaker began garnering attention from people from different times/eras. The entire collection comes with a an embossed shoes box on the lateral side of the heel, to help give it some limited-edition flair. The insoles also come in custom fashion as illustrated stacks of boxes appear inside the shoe. As a cherry on top, each release will come with packaged in their own respective SB box. The Orange SB Dunk Low and Grey SB Dunk High are available now, while the Pink pair drops on the 26th of this month and the Black/Purple pair slated to release on December 26th. What’s you favorite? Let us know in the comments below.

No, this isn’t just another all black Nike Air Max 95. Look closer, and you’ll see this women’s edition of the Air Max standard has a not so standard construction.

Flyknit Racer fans! A Triple Black colorway of the model is said to be releasing in the near future. Now that I think about it, what took Nike so long? Regardless, here’s a first look at this upcoming rumored drop.

The Nike Flyknit Racer Triple Black is done in monochromatic fashion from top to bottom. What I mean by that is that the shoe is done in a Black colorway on the Flyknit upper, the Flywire cables, the Nike branding/Swoosh, the tongue, lining, laces and sole. No frills, no thrills just an all-Black version of the classic shoe. As of right now the shoe is said to be releasing in Europe on December 1st for $150, while a U.S. release date is still unknown. If/when these drop, are you looking to add these to your collection? Stay tuned as more info begins to surface.

The Flyknit Racer is really cool, but it has to come in a really worthwhile colorway for me to get a pair. The Racers aren’t as popular as they were a year ago, so I think this should not be a release that’s hard to come by.

After making its debut about a year ago, the Nike Air Cruz returns for the Fall of 2016. The first colorway that will be arriving at retailers is this Light Bone pair that we see above.

Covered in a combination of premium suede and woven textile throughout the upper, this Air Cruz has chosen to take the tonal route and comes draped in Light Bone all throughout the upper. A Summit White sole unit and blue insoles presumably inspired by Cruz’s New York Giants finish off the look.

Take a look at the on-feet images above and let us know if you plan on picking up this Nike Air Cruz tomorrow. Retail price has been set at $140.

I’ve always admired the Air Cruz from afar but still haven’t seen a colorway that has made me want to cop. This Light Bone pair doesn’t change that either. I’ll just continue to wait.

Joining alongside the recently featured night maroon pair is this traditional colored women?s edition of the popular Nike Air Huarache.

Elevated with more lifestyle appeal, this variation is punctuated by an embossed paisley pattern across its premium leather upper in tonal black. The stealthy hue exudes a distinctive look with the patterned finish, as it’s offset against a crisp white midsole unit to finish off the bold, yet understated design.

The silhouette can still be versatile for all genders. I?m biased towards the palette and the paisley design is a really nice touch.

Nike’s new five-story retail store on 529 Broadway is set to open its doors on Friday, November 18th at 12PM EST. The store was originally scheduled to open last Friday, but due to permit issues, the grand opening was postponed. Nike already handed out wristbands to those who waited in line last week for a chance to purchase key launch and restock product that was announced for the grand opening, so all of that is likely spoken for already. Read Nike’s official statement on the new date below and check out an inside look at Nike Soho here.
