The Nike Air Max 95 Gets A Smokey Blue Finish

Following a palm green iteration, the women’s Nike Air Max 95 receives another vibrant finish for its latest iteration before the end of the year.

The retro runner’s signature composition of suede/mesh and synthetics is essentially draped in the vivid blue hue, while it’s perfectly offset against a crisp white midsole unit and versatile gum outsole for an aesthetically pleasing palette altogether.

Further detailed with its respective branding on the tongue and across the heel, the signature air bubble inserts throughout the sole also incorporate the defining tone.

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

Texas Rival Oklahoma Gets Nike KD 9 PEs


It didn’t take long for Kevin Durant to break records while he was a Texas Longhorn. KD might have only spent a semester or two in burnt orange before heading to the NBA, but he won multiple National Player of the Year Awards while in the state of Texas and has since paid tribute to his collegiate basketball career with a number of Texas-themed PEs. That’s why it’s so strange to see the Nike KD 9 in an Oklahoma Sooners PE given the Sooners’ rival status.

Sure, KD did play the majority of his professional career in the state of Oklahoma and continues to give back to the OKC community through charities despite how mad Thunder fans are at him right now. The KD 9 Oklahoma PE may come as a surprise, but there’s not too much surprising about the actual colorway itself. It’s a standard split color blocking of Oklahoma’s deep red shade on the heel while a white forefoot matches the Swoosh branding and midsole.

What do you think of KD giving out his signature model to his alma mater’s main rival? Let us know in the comments section below and stay tuned for more KD 9 updates right here on Sneaker News via our Release Dates page.

Nike Kobe A.D. Midnight Navy


It’s still strange not to see Kobe Bryant in the purple and gold during this NBA season. And while the Black Mamba has retired for good, Nike Basketball is still making sure that the Black Mamba DNA continues throughout today’s NBA with the latest strong addition to Kobe’s signature sneaker lineage with the Kobe AD. Sure, they’ve stopped numbering the Kobe signature in an attempt to create a gap between the models he played in when compared to his post-retirement offerings, but this is a signature shoe that Kobe himself would be proud enough to play in.

Today we get a look at the Nike Kobe AD Midnight Navy, a clean and simple dark blue option perfect for anyone playing for a team that utilizes the shade. There’s no thematic element to this release, but instead, it’s just a solid team-centric option for high schoolers, collegiate players, and pros alike. The updated Engineered Mesh upper features hits of Pure Platinum and White on the branding throughout while that unique heel gets a matching Midnight Navy shade.

This Nike Kobe AD Midnight Navy colorway is potentially releasing on February 23rd, but we’ll keep you updated on an official Release Date right here on Sneaker News in the near future.

Nike LeBron 14 Black Ice Releases On January 28th

Number 23 turns 32 today. LeBron James celebrated his birthday a little early by beating the Boston Celtics at home last night, where he debuted another new colorway of the LeBron 14. This particular look, known as the Nike LeBron 14 Black Ice, will release on January 28th, 2017 for $175 USD.

The Nike LeBron 14 has been a notable departure from LeBron and Nike Basketball’s usual signature lineup when compared to the past few models. The days of bold and jagged Hyperposite uppers have been replaced by a lightweight slip-on construction comprised of a dual-zone composite textile with the latest in engineered laser perforation technology. The Nike LeBron 14 “Black Ice” utilizes an all-black upper with Swoosh branding arriving on the midfoot strap, outlined in a simple contrasting white. The Zoom Air units on the outsole appear here in an icy blue for a slight deviation from the white speckled midsole.

What do you think of the first on-foot shot of the debut Nike LeBron 14 Black Ice? Check out more photos below and grab your size on January 28th for $175 USD. Be sure to stay tuned for more updates via our Release Dates page. Photos via David Liam Kyle/NBAE.

Nike SB Dunk High Olive Releasing In Early 2017


The Nike SB Dunk High hasn’t been getting as much love as its lowtop counterpart, but it’s still been a featured asset in the ongoing “Shoebox Collection” throughout the Fall/Winter 2016 season and has been a frequent commodity in the lifestyle market to get overhauled in premium leather and suede constructions. Today we get a look at a brand new Nike SB Dunk High Olive slated to release this coming Spring 2017 season featuring premium touches of suede and a lifestyle-grade leather on the toebox and side panels for a look perfect for any occasion.

The shade works particularly well with a contrasting black on the laces and underlying panels for a timeless colorway. What do you think of the Nike SB Dunk Low Olive?
