Didn’t get enough of the “Wheat” collection from Nike Sportswear last year? If so, you’re in luck, because Nike rehashes the theme once again, actually dropping the exact same “wheat” colorways of the Air Max 1, Air Max 90, and Air Max 95 that released last year with the added addition of the Air Max BW to the collection. In case you forgot what they all looked like from last year, here’s a preview of the upcoming re-released wheat colorways along with the new member to the family, the Air Max BW. Look for all four models at select Nike Sportswear retailers soon and on Nike.com.

Flyknit and Flax? The two might seem like they’re at opposite ends of the Nike Sportswear spectrum – one has a tendency to make Nike classics look like Timberland boots, and the other is rooted in performance running technology for a flexible and stylish ride. The two are actually coming together on the Nike Lunar Force 1 Flyknit “Flax”, a premium take on the Nike Air Force 1 boot inspiration that we’ve been seeing for the past three or so Fall/Winter seasons from the Swoosh.

The Nike Lunar Force 1 Flyknit “Flax” ditches the patented air technology found in Bruce Kilgore’s iconic basketball model for a sleeker Lunarlon finish, but what will really grab your attention here is the combination of a premium Flax nubuck paired with a matching Wheat Flyknit on the side panels. It’s a new take on the old Nike Sportswear “Wheat” aesthetic, and one that will cost you upwards of $200 USD to rock. The mid-top construction features matching nubuck ankle straps with embossed Swoosh branding and a rugged gum outsole tooling to help you survive the colder months ahead.

Check out more detailed shots of this Nike Lunar Force 1 Flyknit below and grab your pair today at select retailers like KITH.

The NBA regular season is here and LeBron James and Kyrie Irving showed the league that they’re already in mid-season form by routing the Knicks in a blowout win after holding up their championship rings for the world to see. If you were watching last night, you might’ve noticed the entire Cavaliers starting-5 rocking ominous dark grey sneakers, as they were apart of Nike Basketball’s larger “Battle Grey” Collection slated to arrive this Saturday, October 29th.

LeBron wasn’t going to disappoint in the first game of the season, as he slammed home 6 dunks and eased his way to a triple-double in 3 quarters while wearing the Metallic Gold-accented Nike LeBron Soldier 10. The laceless design benefits from a bold Battle Grey upper with speckling found on the three straps and midsole. An icy outsole rounds out this LeBron Soldier 10 with a simple, understated finish.

Kevin Durant’s regular season debut might not have gone according to plan as the Warriors were beaten at home by the San Antonio Spurs last night. That didn’t stop KD from still finishing with 27 points and 10 rebounds while lacing up the Nike KD 9 “Battle Grey”. The premium Flyknit upper uses dark shades of Wolf Grey and Anthracite to its advantage for a tonal, clean look.

Kyrie showcased that he’s one of the best scorers in the game against the New York Knicks while wearing the Nike Kyrie 2 “Battle Grey”. Irving made things look easy and stylish as usual, as his second singature features a lighter shade than the other models in Nike Basketball’s Battle Grey Collection, but does get hints of Metallic Gold throughout in honor of his first championship.

Summer is over, that means we can no longer wear colorful sneakers, right? Wrong! There’s never a bad time to add some color to your ‘fit! With that being said, check out this upcoming Nike Air Presto GPX Multicolor.

Coming in an array of different colors used on the upper, this Nike Air Presto GPX is said to be a grade school exclusive. The color blocking used on the graphic upper comes in a vector style to help give it its unique motif. Colors such as Hyper Violet, Turquoise, and Fuchsia Flash take care of the bold look, while hits of Black found on the toe cap, laces, tongue, lining and cage tone things down a bit. Lastly, additional Hyper Violet found on the eyelets, branding and outsole complete the look of the shoe. Dropping in the near future, how many small-footers plan on scooping up a pair?

The Nike Air Presto has been one of Nike Sportswear’s go-to retros for quite some time with modern updates expanding the reach of the silhouette once known as a ‘t-shirt for your feet‘ into the colder months ahead with the likes of the Nike Air Presto Utility. NSW is taking a break from that high-arching zipper-constructed regiment for a quick second to introduce a brand new Nike Presto Multi Color release exclusive to a grade school size run featuring a vector graphic upper for a head-turning look.

The Nike Presto Multi Color features dashes of Hyper Violet, Turquoise, and Fuchsia Flash in a jagged array of neoprene randomness while the traditional cage overlay gives plenty of breathing room in a simple black to match the sports mesh ankle and lining. What do you think of the latest Nike Presto release?

Foamposites will make a big return splash this Black Friday with the release of the “Dr. Doom” colorway that originated in 2006. However, there are greater plans in store for this silhouette in 1997 as both the Foamposite One and Pro will celebrate its 20th Anniversary next year, and what’s already in store is this dope silver carbon fiber version of the shoe that features a chromed-out Swoosh. These are already being dubbed the “Silver Surfer” to keep the silhouette under the Marvel umbrella, but “carbon fiber” looks to be a better option as this material has already been adorned in carbon fiber before. Check out this closer look here and stay tuned for a release next March.

The new “rain jackets for your feet” go “Triple Black” with this murdered-out colorway of the Nike Air Presto Mid Utility that’s hitting retailers now. The ultimate edition of the Presto for wet weather conditions (you wouldn’t even want to attempt wearing a standard mesh pair in the rain if you want to keep your feet dry) goes with the still-trending all black look this fall for its rubber coated water-resistant upper built atop the traditional Presto sole with added tread. Get ready for wet weather in style by picking up your own pair at select Nike Sportswear purveyors like Rise.

Olive is one of the most popular colorways of the Fall season so it should be no surprise to see the hue used by any and all brands at the moment.

Nike is one of those brands that loves to use the color and have now placed it on the popular Air Presto. This Nike Air Presto Essential features a stretch mesh upper for a flexible, lightweight feel, and a molded midfoot cage offers lightweight support. This pair comes colored in Cargo Khaki all throughout the upper with a contrasting white midsole.

Available now at select Nike retailers for $120, what are your thoughts on this colorway?
