We’re right in the midst of Fall which means the perfect time to rock “wheat” sneakers. I’m personally not a huge fan of the Timberland-inspired look, but I do appreciate certain releases here and there.

We have just found out that Nike will once again be releasing their Nike Sportswear Wheat/Flax Collection for the Fall season. You may remember that the Swoosh dropped a very similar pack last year also around this time. This year’s silhouettes will include the Air Max 90, Air Max 95, Air Max BW, and the Air Max 1. Every pair is highlighted by its wheat/tan upper and its use of suede/nubuck.

No exact release has been announced but you can expect the Nike Air Max Wheat Collection to drop throughout the Fall/Winter seasons.

Author’s Take

Some of the pairs from this collection look decent (Air Max 90 and Air Max 1) but I don’t see myself picking up anything.

The Nike Presto, described as the “t-shirt for your feet”, is looking to get a bit warmer for the winter season. Starting on November 3rd, Nike will offer up Pendleton fabrics in four different styles on the Nike Presto silhouette on NIKEiD. This specific pattern pictured here is inspired by the pinnacles of Spider Rock in Arizona?s Canyon de Chelly National Park, referencing the home of Spider Woman, the Navajo deity of weaving. Preview the Nike Presto with Pendleton fabrics below and stay tuned for NIKEiD to open these up beginning next Thursday.

It looks like the velvet-covered Dunk High won’t be the only Nike SB release of its kind for Christmas this year, as today we get a look at a coinciding green velvet edition of the Zoom Stefan Janoski. Just like the red velvet Dunk, the Janoski features its entire upper covered in a velvet material with a red plaid sockliner for a unique new Christmas theme from Nike SB. While we wait to see if any more velvet sneakers show up, get a full look at the Janoski and stay tuned for further release details.

Nike, adidas, and Jordan are the three most important brands when it comes to sneaker culture. When it comes the running, they’re almost irrelevant. Over 2.5 million people ran half or full marathons over the last year and among those serious runners, the go-to brands aren’t the Swoosh, Jumpman (which barely has an imprint in running), or three stripes, but Brooks (the leader), ASICS (the runner-up), and Saucony (in third place). Those three brands make up over half the U.S. running shoe market, which brought in $3.2 billion last year.

Of that market share, Nike owns a respectable 9%, which brings them in as the fourth best running shoe brand among serious runners, while adidas isn’t much in the picture. This data isn’t a surprise in the running industry, but for those who rock kicks for fashion, this is a swift reminder that the footwear business is much, much larger than you think.

Not only is there a mid-top version of the Nike Air Presto Utility, but those of you who prefer the original low-top construction can also get in on the fun.

Seen here in a Black/Bone colorway, the Nike Air Presto Low Utility features a synthetic leather upper, molded midfoot overlays, and neoprene construction on the tongue/ankle. This pair is dressed in Black from head to toe with the exception of the midsole which has been done in White.

This Nike Air Presto Utility Low can be purchased at select Nike retailers now for $130.

I’m not too convinced with this “Utility” version yet. As of right now I prefer the mesh/neoprene/flyknit pairs instead. I’d have to see these in person.

Another premium colorway of the Nike Air Max 90 is showcased this season with this Black/Gum pair that we see above.

Highlighted by a full black upper constructed out of leather and wool (ideal for the Fall and Winter seasons), this Air Max 90 has then been placed atop a Sail midsole and gum outsole for the perfect contrast.

If premium Air Max 90s are your things then you can pick up this colorway at select Nike Sportswear accounts this Fall.

There’s nothing too flashy or extravagant about this Air Max 90, but the colorway and materials work well together. The gum outsole is a nice finishing touch.

LeBron James and Kyrie Irving contributed to the most historic comeback in NBA Finals history this past June, coming back from the usual death sentence of being down 3 games to 1 for Cleveland’s first championship in 52 years. The dynamic duo went off for 41 points each in Game 5, followed by another 41 point performance by LeBron in Game 6. Then came the block by LeBron and the shot by Kyrie to seal the deal. Nike Basketball is celebrating their accomplishment with the Four Wins Pack, four combinations of the Nike Kyrie 2 and the Nike LeBron Soldier 10 in matching PE colorways throughout the Cavaliers’ four wins this past June.

While we’ve already seen stateside availability for the Nike Basketball Four Wins Pack, today we get news that the celebratory championship collection will arrive at European retailers starting this Friday, October 28th with the “Homecoming” Game 3 Pack and running through November 11th with Game 7’s “Fifty-Two Years” Pack. Check out more detailed shots of the upcoming European release slate for the Nike Basketball Four Wins Pack and let us know which combination is your favorite by taking your thoughts to the comments section below.

Fans of the Nike Air Max 96 waited over two decades to be treated to a retro until they found out that the shoe was missing a major original detail – the midsole and outsole unit had been swapped for that found on the Nike Air Max 95 SE for a slimmer more modern upgrade. Traditionalists cried foul while others chose to focus on the head-turning upper and original colorways that were returning to market.

The Nike Air Max 96 famously has two versions and today we get a look at a clean Black/White take on the Nike Air Max 96 II XX. This pair sports a premium leather and nubuck construction consisting up an all black upper while a white slimmed down midsole is contrasted through a murky black visible air unit. The colorway definitely works on the cult-classic running model, but is the inexplicable choice of an updated midsole and outsole unit going to interfere with your decision to grab a pair? Check out more detailed photos of the Nike Air Max 96 II XX “Black/White” after the break and grab your size right now from select shops like 1st OG.

The NBA season is underway, and there were some absolutely monstrous games last night including a 50 point milestone from Anthony Davis in a losing effort. The Swoosh is churning out some awesome new colorways for the start of their season too with the Nike Basketball “Battle Grey” Collection for their three signature superstars. But what about some of their top PE guys? Luckily they’re getting some exclusives that will be available in international shops this weekend.

Today we get a look at some special mock-ups for Anthony Davis, DeMarcus Cousins, Karl-Anthony Towns, and Draymond Green. The Nike Air Max Audacity returns in a premium construction for The Brow featuring a Battle Grey upper, a unique PE tongue patch, midsole speckling, and accents of Deep Garnett throughout for a simple, refined look. Here’s to hoping AD drops another 50 in a winning effort in these.

DeMarcus Cousins received a new Nike Zoom Clear Out featuring speckling throughout the entirety of the Battle Grey upper while a Kings-centric purple accent shade contrasts with the black Swoosh branding. A new ‘DMC’ PE logo is featured prominently on the tongue while a high-arching ankle collar adds support and modern style to the new basketball silhouette.

Karl-Anthony Towns is one of the most exciting young players in the game and hopes to turn the Timberwolves franchise around. He’ll be doing that throughout the season wearing different variations of the Nike Hyperdunk 2016. Here the basic construction is amplified by midsole speckling, bright accents of royal blue and a new PE tongue logo featuring his jersey number. Draymond Green is one of the most versatile players in the NBA today, so he’ll be getting the ever-versatile Nike Zoom Clear out to complement his all-around hustle. Shocking electric yellow tints brighten up the grey colorway.

Each of these 4 Nike Basketball PEs will be available this Friday, October 28th via Philippine’s shop Titan both in-store and online. Check out more detailed shots below and let us know which pair is your favorite by taking your thoughts to our comments section.

Last year?s Air Max 95 Greedy is celebrated with this latest take on the classic Nike Air Presto, as it’s treated in the very same distinctive color-blocking theme for Fall 2016.

Essentially a ?What The?-inspired rendition, the low-top sneaker is showcased in a lifestyle editorial which emphasizes its defining multicolored makeup that incorporates vibrant shades of black, grey, white, blue, green, orange and bronze across its entirety in asymmetrical fashion. The one-of-a-kind color scheme is nicely offset by a crisp white midsole unit to finish off the design.

Retailing for a price tag of $130, you can purchase this limited edition pair at select Nike retailers nationwide starting this Saturday, October 29th.

I?m a fan of the silhouette overall and this theme looks amazing on it. It?s easily one of the best colorways on the sneaker so far.

If you’ve been on the fence regarding the Nike Air Presto Low Utility in the Olive colorway, we’re pretty sure these new on-feet images will persuade into getting a pair.

Rocking a tonal Cargo Khaki all over the upper, the Nike Air Presto Low Utility is built for the season by coming equipped with a redesigned weather resistant upper. The customary cage is still intact and also comes in the Olive colorway. Down low you will find a Black midsole to create some nice contrast on the shoe. I bet you want a pair now, huh? Expect these to drop stateside in the near future.

It hardly ever rains where I live, so even though I like the shoe, I have no real need for this Utility version of the Presto.
