The women’s Nike Beautiful X Powerful Premium Collection pays homage and is inspired by Olympic track star, Joan Benoit Samuelson. Samuelson started a revolution when she competed in the first even Women’s Olympic Marathon back in 1984. By doing that she showed the world that women could withstand running long distances over 1500 meters. Come December 1st, Nike will pay tribute to her.

The Nike Beautiful X Powerful Premium Collection will consist of the Nike Air Huarache Utility, Nike Air Max Thea, Nike Cortez, and Nike Air Presto. All four models will come with Jacquard woven uppers done in bold accents consisting of Fuchsia Flash, Pink, Infrared ad Purple, all said to be inspired by the different running lanes on a track. Hits of Black leather appearing throughout and the gum bottoms sole give the shoes a nice and premium feel. Dropping in December, what pair are you feeling the most?

 


Author’s Take

The Presto has just the right amount of bold hits to it. Not too much, not too little.

Check Out The Upcoming Nike Wool & Vachetta Tan Pack

Nike Wool & Vachetta Tan Pack 1 Nike Wool & Vachetta Tan Pack 2

Wool and Vachetta Tan construction join forces on this upcoming Nike pack. Consisting of the Nike Air Max 90 Ultra and the Nike Roshe Waffle, both pairs boasts similar looks as the aforementioned materials take care of the entire look of the shoe.

Both models comes dressed in a clean Grey wool base that makes them viable options for the Fall season. Giving the wool construction some nice contrast and a premium feel are the Vachetta Tan leather accents placed throughout the shoe. If this is truly Vachetta Tan leather, you can expect the leather on both models to change colors and get darker the more you wear them. Said to be dropping on October 7th (internationally), let us know if you’ll get a pair of the upcoming Nike Wool & Vachetta Tan Pack if/when they arrive stateside.

Author’s Take

Wool and Vachetta Tan appears to be a solid combination on a sneaker. It doesn’t get very cold where I live, but if it did, I’d probably scoop up the Air Max 90 Ultra.

A Closer Look At The Nike LeBron Soldier 10 Christ The King


Christ The King has produced a number of sought after LeBron PEs over the years, and the King James sponsored High School has proven worthy of the affiliation given their powerhouse roots. Such stars like Lamar Odom, Chamique Holdsclaw, and Jayson Williams attended the school but that was before the Royals were lucky enough to get exclusive PEs from Nike Basketball and Lebron. Today we get a look at their latest offering with this Nike LeBron Soldier 10 PE.

The Cavaliers-like colorway features a burgundy mesh base, a Metallic Gold outline on the Swoosh branding, and an off-white Sail midsole unit for a premium touch. The good news is this is probably a general release too given the fact that the Christ The King callouts are absent on this particular colorway. Continue onward for a full look at the latest “Christ The King” PE and know that these LeBron Soldier 10s arrive at retailers on October 15th, 2016 for $130.

The Nike Mag 2016 Will Release Via Live Auctions Beginning Tomorrow

We just got word that the Nike Air Mag 2016 will be releasing tomorrow, October 4th via a live auctions. For that of you who remember, the original Nike Air Mag dropped back in 2011 the same way, by a live auction.

Obviously the main difference between this upcoming pair on the one from 2011 is the fact that this one is supposed to come with a power-lacing system, at least that’s what all signs point to. It’s also believed that all proceeds from the live auctions will b going to the Michael J. Fox Foundation. How much do you expect the shoes to go for? Well, put it this way: The 2011 Mags sold for an average of $4,500, and those came without power laces. With that being said, I would no be surprised one but if people end up paying close to or more that $10,000. So, who wants to get together and gather up some many to put a bid on a size 10? Let me know….

Be sure you check out our Nike Mag 2016 hub page for all the latest information of this highly anticipated sneaker.

For those of you that have been waiting for the Nike Air Max Zero Ultramarine to arrive on nike.com, then your wish is now granted.

The new colorway of the Air Max Zero features White on the majority of the shoe with Ultramarine landing on the Swoosh branding, inner liner, and on portions of the outsole. Hits of Bright Crimson are then seen on the branding on the heel as well as on the tongue. A White midsole with the signature Air Max Zero tooling finishes off this subtle but colorful pair of runners.

This Air Max Zero is available in unisex sizing and retails for $150. Will you cop or pass in order to wait on a different colorway?

Author’s Take

Kind of looks like a women?s colorway cause of the combination of purple and orange. I don?t own a pair of Air Max Zeros yet, and I don?t plan on making this my first.

Nike SNKRS Just Created A Nike Mag Page!

nike mag 2

Yo! Now it’s beginning to feel real out here! We just came across the Nike Mag’s very own page on Nike SNKRS site/app. Very little information is provided on the page but all signs point to something huge happening tomorrow!

The page (click here to check it out) consists of a 14 second video showing the new Nike Mag sneaker focusing on the auto-lacing system and the tri-colored lights on the side of the heel. To get us even more excited, right below that it reads:

NIKE MAG

10.04.2016

I may not be the smartest person in the world, but I’m pretty sure something’s about to go down tomorrow! Could it really happen? Would Nike really drop the Nike Mag 2016 with less than a 24 hours notice. It wouldn’t surprise me one bit.

Check out our Nike Mag 2016 hub page for all the latest information of this highly anticipated sneaker.

The Nike Mag Auctions Will Go Live On October 4th, 2016

The fully functional power-lacing Nike Mag seen in Back To The Future II will officially release tomorrow, October 4th. The shoes will be released via auctions, just like the Mag 2011 release, with all proceeds going to the Michael J. Fox Foundation.  The average selling price for the Mags in 2011 were around $4,500, but given that these are the real deal, we expect the average prices to be at least double.

Currently, the power-lacing Nike Mag is being previewed on the Nike SNKRS app, showcasing the iconic design of the feature as well as the signature LED lights and power-lacing capabilities. Once again, the Nike Mag auctions go live tomorrow, October 4th, so stay tuned for further info.

The Beautiful x Powerful Collection For Nike Women Is Inspired By The Running Track


Joan Benoit Samuelson ignited a revolution when she competed in the first ever Women’s Olympic Marathon in 1984, and now over three decades later, the belief that women couldn’t withstand running long distances of over 1500 meters has been shattered and then some. Samuelson’s performance pushed women’s running into completely new territory and her motto of ‘There is no finish line’ continues to inspire through Nike’s latest women’s Beautiful X Powerful Collection slated to release on December 1st.

Now the Nike Air Huarache Utility, Nike Air Max Thea, Nike Cortez, and Nike Air Presto are all returning in new Jacquard woven uppers with a vibrant array of fuchsia flash, pink, infrared, and purple inspired by the different running lanes on a track. Premium touches of black leather arrive throughout while gum bottoms add a lifestyle finish perfect for any occasion.

Nike’s homage to Joan Benoit Samuelson was a long time coming, and the Beautiful X Powerful Collection manages to perfectly encapsulate her legendary accomplishments with 8 upcoming women’s exclusive releases.

Is Nike Releasing The Power-Lacing Mag Tomorrow

Roughly a year ago, Nike and Michael J. Fox unveiled to the world the first-ever power-lacing Nike Mag sneaker, the futuristic footwear relic that appeared in Back To The Future II. After the huge unveil via Twitter and later on the David Letterman show, Nike announced that a limited number of the self-lacing Mag will be auctioned off in Spring of 2016. That season has come and gone and to the dismay of many, the Mag never surfaced as promised.

Today, Nike sent a rather cryptic tweet to Michael J. Fox, reading “Excited For Tomorrow”. This, at the very least, signifies some sort of update on the Mag. Will Nike reveal the shoes in detail? Will we get a release date? Will the actual auctions go live? Only time will tell, so stay tuned for updates throughout the day.
