With the last notable leather iteration rendered in a USA theme to support this past Summer 2016 Olympics, the Nike Cortez returns in another solid colorway to perfectly coordinate with the Fall 2016 season.

Now draped in night maroon across its smooth nubuck upper, the low-top sneaker is accentuated with exotic accents gracing the Swooshes and heel tab with snakeskin in black. This lifestyle variation of the popular retro runner is further outfitted with a sail-white colored rubber sole unit to create an aesthetically pleasing palette altogether.

You can purchase this model at select Nike retailers worldwide now.

I’m a sucker for this silhouette really. This colorway is pretty exceptional as well. I dislike the snake accents, but, it makes the model much more stylish.

Joining alongside its mid-top counterpart will be the a low-top rendition of the Nike Air Presto Utility for Fall 2016.

Intended to suit the colder season, the sneaker’s construction has been revamped, as it boasts a slightly thicker composition to promote more thermal insulation, while the toe area is treated in a textile finish is also waterproof. The silhouette also retains its signature design intact with the translucent lacing system across its side panels and rear.

Showcased in subdued colorways of olive, grey and black — look for these pairs to debut at Nike retailers starting in November.

The colorway is appealing in general. Although I don’t like the silhouette aesthetically, this should still garner some attention, especially for those who attend the NYC high school too.

We could describe this upcoming colorway of the Nike Air Max Zero as “arguably one of the best colorways yet” to play it safe, but no, there’s no doubt about it, this is definitely one of the best colorways yet for the shoe. With what appears to be some heavy influence from the iconic black and red Air Jordan 1 that’s fresh in the minds of every sneakerhead after its recent re-release, the Air Max Zero gets covered in the classic “Bred” look. The treatment features a black and red checkered mesh base with solid black Hyperfuse overlays and a contrasting white midsole to complete the recognizable Bred colorway. No official release date for the Air Max Zero “Bred” is available yet, but expect them to drop later this fall.

I wouldn’t call myself a fan of the Air Max Thea, but I’ll admit that this colorway is pretty fresh. I’m a big Dodgers fan so these would go great with a Dodger hat or jersey.

I’ve always been a fan of the Lunar Force 1 Duckboot, but I live somewhere where we’re lucky if it rains 7-10 days a year, so I don’t have much use for these.

It’s been a cool minute since Nike has released a Nike Air Footscape. Don’t fret though, the shoe is making a comeback this Fall season. Coming in two different colorways to choose from, let’s take a closer look at both.

The Nike Air Footscape has always been one of those shoe that’s so ugly that it’s good-looking. Sort of like an english bulldog, you know. The abstract look of the upper is what really makes it intriguing to sneaker enthusiasts. You have the option of picking up the shoe in Black, Grey and Red, or Court Purple and Black. Both pairs will come with contrasting speckled midsoles, while Nike Swoosh branding appears on the heel, toe and side panels. Are you a fan of the shoe? If so, you’ll be able to pick up a pair beginning October 28th.

When I first saw the shoe, I thought it was pretty weird. Now as I’m older, I appreciate the originality of it. At the right price, I’d be willing to pick up a pair.

Earlier this year Nike debuted the Nike LunarEpic Flyknit, one of their newest runners that utilizes a Flyknit upper with a Lunarlon midsole.

Still considered a relatively new sneaker, Nike is already beginning to tinker with the LunarEpic Flyknit. This new version of the runner is known as the Nike LunarEpic Flyknit Shield and was designed for the colder and wetter time of the year. The shoe features a new layer on the upper that protects your feet from the elements when needed. This pair features a black and silver Flyknit upper with volt accents and a speckled midsole.

I like the fact that you can wear this Flyknit sneaker in the rain and cold, but I’m not a fan of the extended collar.

The Nike Air Footscape Woven Chukka is already on the shelves this fall, and it looks like its relative in low-top, unwoven form is also making a comeback this season.

Not to be overlooked, slept-on, or overshadowed, the Nike Air Zoom Talaria in the Black and Gold colorway also dropped yesterday. Also a part of the Golden Shine pack, let’s take a closer look at what the shoe looks like on-feet.

The 90’s classic boasts a brand new colorway that has the model dressed in the beloved Black and Gold color scheme. Black is used as the base color, while the Gold hits throughout give the shoe some nice pop. In addition to the Black and Gold, the shoe also comes with a White midsole, Gold branding and the speckling on the outsole and 3M detailing all around. Nike Swoosh branding is embroidered on the side of the heels, while Talaria wording is placed on the heel. Retailing for the price of $175, will you add these to your lineup?

Author’s Take

I like the branding on the heel. Not sure if I’d pick up a pair for myself due to the price, but there’s no doubt that it has a clean look to it.
