The Nike Air Max 1 is once again getting the Metallic treatment with this new Air Max 1 Ultra Metallic Toe Pack.

Consisting of two colorways of the iconic Nike Sportswear silhouette, the first pair features a combination of Light Bone and Metallic Red Bronze. The second pair comes in a combination of Black and Metallic Hematite with both pairs being constructed out of a combination of leather and nubuck. The black/blue pair also has a white midsole and black outsole while the Light Bone pairs comes with a white midsole and gum outsole.

Releasing this Fall exclusively for the ladies, how many #ChicksOnFire are excited to cop?

Author’s Take

The white/bronze pair is the better out of the two in my opinion because it just pops more. The gum outsole is also a nice touch.

As we approach Fall we begin to see new styles such as these new Lumberjack-inspired colorways of the popular Nike Air Force 1.

The classic hoop shoe from the 80’s has now turned into a fashion icon as countless materials and colorways have managed to land on the silhouette. Today we see two new colorways with the first featuring a black leather upper with white accents on the laces, branding, and midsole. The second pair is the brighter of the two and comes equipped with a Hyper Cobalt with accompanying white accents. Both pairs are then finished off with with red/black flannel inner liners, metal eyelets and gum outsoles.

Are you a fan of the Lumberjack look on the Air Force 1? Look for both colorways to release later this Fall.

Author’s Take

Nike should have taken it a step further and should have placed the flannel print somewhere on the upper. Because once you put these on the flannel print essentially disappears.

ACRONYM has made a name for themselves by transforming some of the most coveted Nike retro models with their unique visuals. The polarizing Nike Air Force 1 collaboration turned heads – you either loved or hated the offering given the zipper addition and stunning color blocking but the trio definitely proved that the name ACRONYM was synonymous with serious design chops.

You can expect the same reaction to their ACRONYM x Nike Presto Mid offering, a reworked take on the model once proclaimed as a t-shirt for your feet. The collaboration doubles as a high-fashion autumn-ready collection thanks to an extension of the ankle support, more zippers, a premium leather heel, and three standout colorways that you won’t see anywhere else.

Today we get the best look yet at the ACRONYM Nike Presto Mid in a militaristic Medium Olive, a tonal Bamboo and Black combination, and vibrant Volt/Hot Lava offering. The shoes already dropped at Berlin-based retailers this past Thursday, so hopefully we see a stateside release in the near future. Be sure to check out the full collection after the break and stay tuned for more release date updates right here on Sneaker News.

Nike will be beefing up the Nike Sock Dart a bit for the upcoming Fall season in a handful of different colorways.

Known as the Nike Sock Dart SE Premium, this new iteration of the lightweight slip-on runner features a wool-like material throughout the majority of the upper to provide your foot with a little more warmth in comparison to the OG knitted pairs. This colorway comes dressed in Midnight Navy all throughout with Wolf Grey detailing on the midsole and branding on the tongue. Black speckling on the midsole finishes off the look on this Fall-friendly colorway of the Nike Sock Dart.

Look for this and other colorways to arrive at select retailers stateside in the next few weeks.

I like the Sock Dart but still haven’t bought a pair yet. When I eventually do buy my first pair it’ll most likely be the OG pair, but this wool version is pretty nice as well.

Last offered in triple white, the Nike Air Max 1 Ultra Essential is rendered in new colorway highlighted by gym red to close out the summer season.

Comprised of a breathable white mesh base, tonal synthetics are applied on the component to reinforce its composition, which is shaded in contrasting hues of black and red.
Additionally, the revamped build is much more lightweight compared to its predecessor.

I’ll always be an advocate for this silhouette. The revamped makeup is more functional and this colorway is an instant classic.

The iconic Nike Air Max 95 has been slightly revamped in a new construction courtesy of its Ultra Essential variation this season.

Essentially maintaining the retro runner’s original design language, this rendition however, flaunts a no-sew constructed upper that creates a more streamlined profile. With the component rendered in a palette of greys and white, the model is also tweaked with an enhanced midsole unit, constructed from lightweight injecting molding, which is inspired by the Ultra Moire rendition.

You can purchase this pair at select Nike retailers overseas now for about $160, while a stateside release is expected to follow very soon.

I’ve been a fan of the silhouette, but, this makeover makes the sneaker much more appealing. You can’t go wrong with this colorway either.

Sergio Lozano’s iconic homage to the natural structure of the human foot has been a fan-favorite Nike retro running offering since it released in 1995. We’re talking about the Nike Air Max 95 of course, with its strange yet enticing side panel waves, mesh netting, and head-turning midsole unit complete with the patented visible air throughout. Nike Sportswear has revamped and remixed the silhouette countless times in the two decades since its release including the slimmed down Nike Air Max 95 No-Sew. The special edition Dave White collaboration will release on September 16th featuring the new combination of no-sew and Ultra outsole tooling. Just in case you can’t wait for that release, there’s this tonal grey release available today.

The Nike Air Max 95 Ultra No-Sew takes the silhouette and modernizes it thanks to a seamless construction that sheds some weight. The side panel waves are still there in spirit and color blocking with a grey gradient working from light to dark. The midsole unit is inspired by the Ultra Moire running model with extra indentations providing a flawless lightweight ride that rids itself of the bulkiness found in the 21 year old model. Catch a better preview below and grab your pair from select international retailers like JD Sports.

Earlier this morning we saw the release of the Nike Kobe 11 Elite Mambacurial which was inspired by Kobe Bryan’ts favorite soccer team, FC Barcelona.

A week from today we’ll see yet another Mambacurial colorway of the Kobe 11 release as the shoe takes on the traditional pink and green Mambacurial look. This engineered mesh version of the Kobe 11 comes equipped with Pink Flash and Red Plum on the upper with Action Green accents landing on the translucent outsole, Flywire, and the branding on the tongue and side panels. Finishing things off is “NIKE” written in White on the medial sided of the shoe.

The Nike Kobe 11 EM Mambacurial will release on September 15, 2016 for $160.

Author’s Take

I’m a fan of the Mambacurial colorway from the Kobe line and Nike did a good job with these 11s. If this pair would have been Flyknit it would have looked even better.

Today we get a closer look at the most coveted Nike Flyknit Racer of the year, with these new images of the “Tokyo” colorway. Created by Nike to celebrate the next summer Olympic games in Japan in 2020, the hand-dyed indigo Flyknit colorway was limited to only 100 pairs worldwide and was gifted to a lucky few. Among the 100 pairs floating around out there, this is only the second that’s been photographed nicely, allowing the rest of us to be able to enjoy the amazing look of the special edition Flyknit Racer and its accompanying tote bag.

The Nike Kobe 11 is releasing colorways with no remorse. It seems like a brand new colorway drops every week, right? We just came across another colorway, and this is one hasn’t gotten much press compared to other past offerings. When does it release? It’s actually available at select retailers now!

This EM version of the Kobe 11 comes with an Engineered Mesh upper done in a White colorway. The White base is contrasted by the Black noted on areas such as the Nike Swoosh, Flywire, tongue branding, lining and heel. As a finishing tough, the shoe comes with an icy translucent outsole. It hasn’t been officially released by Nike yet, but Nike stockists such as Eastbay already has them up for grabs. What do you think? Is it worth copping?

I’ve seen so many better colorways of the Kobe 11, this is not one I see myself picking up. It’s much too simple and bland.

I’m a sucker for speckled detailing. I like how Nike didn’t just stop the speckled look on the midsole, it’s cool that it extended on to the strap.
