Defined by its simple and minimalist construction, the model is treated in a timeless colorway as well. Black dominates its engineered mesh upper that provides ventilation and lightweight support, while a white Zoom Air unit in the heel delivers responsive cushioning.

Further detailed with more white accents on the Swooshes and branding on the tongue and heel tab, you can purchase this pair at select Nike stores now for $90.

I’m a fan of the sneaker’s simple makeup. You can’t go wrong with this colorway either. It’s a stylish and functional pair overall.

To follow-up on a first look, the new Nike Kwazi in classic tones of black and white is now showcased in a more detailed perspective.

A hybrid style that blends the Roshe and Huarache, the sneaker is defined by its high-top profile and a mid-foot strap that offers superb lockdown and support. Comprised of breathable mesh and synthetic leather overlays, the model’s blacked-out upper and padder collar are nicely offset against a crisp, white full-length rubber sole unit with an egg-crate inspired outsole that enhances flexibility and comfort.

You can find this pair at select Nike retailers now, while wider availability is expected very soon.

I actually like the mashup. The design looks solid and it’s pretty appealing in this colorway as well. I’m not tempted into purchasing though.

I like the streamlined look of the silhouette but I?m a fan of the construction and colorway in general. This is a nice option for summer.

With the OG Purple Punch and camping graphic-printed pair on the way, another variation of the popular Nike Air Huarache is featured, which is suggested to be part of the brand’s summer 2016 lineup.

Boasting a premium composition, the sneaker bears a canvas base with suede overlays across its side panels, while the neoprene bootie construction is kept intact. Flaunting a predominantly sail white colorway, most notably on the toe box, tongue and midsole unit, bold navy hits are seen on the outsole, side panels, inner lining and tongue, while the signature translucent heel cage system is treated in a copperish/brown hue to complement its overall palette.

You can find this pair at select Nike retailers in the coming weeks ahead. Stay tuned for more updates.

You can’t go wrong with a classic and the makeup on this pair looks solid. The colorway is appealing as well and this should garner some attention.

It was about time this colorway was applied on the silhouette. It obviously looks sleek and solid. I?m a fan and this should garner the attention it deserves.

I?m a sucker for runners and I like the modernized upgrade. I?m also biased towards this theme, but, it?s a solid offering overall.

I remember watching bits and pieces of Team USA’s tight gold medal victory against Spain in the 2008 Olympics. Wait, scratch that. I vaguely remember watching bits and pieces of Team USA’s gold medal victory against Spain in the 2008 Olympics because it just so happened to coincide with the wedding of one of my best friends. In between the rehearsals and the flowing drinks and bonding moments between people I’ve known for most of my life, the game was a blur that was showing on multiple televisions was we moved from room to room in the middle of the night before the big day.

There were a few things that stood out from the few moments that I could actually pay attention to the game. The first was that Ricky Rubio could be a future NBA All-Star but I wasn’t sure if he was actually the team’s point guard or their ball boy. The second was how in their moment of greatest need, guys like LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Paul were willing to cede the floor to Kobe Bryant and let him take the big shots. This was 2008 Kobe Bryant after all, the reigning NBA MVP who was last seen getting blown out by the rival Boston Celtics in the Finals. He still had two more championships, a few more epic signature shoes and an unbelievable curtain call to go, but for now, he was the alpha alpha dog on a team filled with them. The third was after the game and looking at pictures online, he wore these awesome red, white and blue Nike Hyperdunks that how looked slightly different from the ones everybody else wore. Turns out they were different and better than the rest.

Despite being a few signature shoes into his journey with Nike, Kobe Bryant had a stopgap a la Penny Hardaway with the Nike Air Foamposite One in the form of the Hyperdunk. Equipped with things that we take for granted today like Flywire and Lunarlon, the Hyperdunk had the perfect guy to introduce them to the world in Kobe. Prior to the Olympics, Kobe uh, hyped the Hyperdunk in ways that would blow up Twitter before “blowing up Twitter” was a thing. From starring in a viral video where he allegedly jumped over a speeding Aston Martin to rolling up to the launch of a Back To The Future-inspired colorway in a DeLorean, Kobe sold the Hyperdunk in unconventional ways. And when the time came to actually deliver on the court in the shoes, he helped bring home Olympic Gold for the first time since the year 2000.

Most of the members of Team USA wore the Nike Hyperdunk, but it was Kobe who had the pair that stood out the most because of course he did. Mamba’s PE featured a laser-cut snake graphic across the upper and the Kobe logo on the tongue. The differences were subtle, but it still managed to catch my attention despite the high drama of the game.

Later this month, the Nike Hyperdunk will return in the United We Rise style that was the slogan for the 2008 squad that was dubbed The Redeem Team. And while that might be an instant cop for many sneakerheads nostalgic for that memorable time (I know I’ll be trying to pick up a pair), the one that we all need another shot at is Kobe’s player exclusive. Like every other pair of Sneaker Grails we’ve featured on here, the odds are slim, but the hope is eternal. It’s nice to want things, as they say…

These on-feet images of the recently revealed Nike Blazer Mid OG will probably get you even more excited for the release. Nike is bringing back OG colorways of the shoe and one of those colorways is the White and Red pair you see above.

The shoe starts off with a White premium leather upper. More of the same hue is found on the foam tongue, laces and sole unit. Red branding is spotted on the heel and Nike Swoosh on the side panels. The branding on the tongue comes in Black, while the outsole comes in gum fashion. You feeling this vintage look on the shoe? Expect these to arrive stateside in the neat future.

I consider this a must have if I’m a fan of the Blazer lineage. The colorway is clean and the materials used on the upper look better than usual. The shoe looks ever better on-feet!

The post An On-Feet Look At The Nike Blazer Mid OG White / Red appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

The Nike Blazer Mid is returning in OG fashion this year. That means the construction and colorways used on the shoe will be exactly like the pairs from the ’70s. One colorway set to make its return is the White and Black colorway you see above. Let’s get an on-feet look.

The shoe starts off with a White premium leather upper. The tonal look of the shoe is broken up by the hits of Black placed on the branding located on the heel, Nike Swoosh on the side panels and tongue tag. Even more White is found on sole unit, laces, foam tongue and lining. Are you a fan of the OG look on the shoe? If so, expect these to drop sometime in the near future.

Calling all AM90 fans, this clean Nike Air Max 90 Ultra SE Cargo Khaki will be releasing next month! Let’s get a closer look at the shoe via these official images.

This Ultra version of the Air Max 90 comes with an Ultra sole, which makes the shoe lighter and more comfortable than the original pair. When it comes to the upper, the shoe is dressed in a Olive colorway constructed out of mesh and pressure fused panels to make sure the comfort is on point. Accompanying the Olive hue are hits of Black placed on the laces, Nike Swoosh and part of the midsole, which predominantly comes in White. Slated to drop August 20th, let us know if you like what you see.

I love Olive sneakers. This mesh/fused version of the AM 90 looks really dope. Having the shoe come with an Ultra sole makes it even better.

We’ve already gotten a first look at the Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 Dunkman, but these brand new images gets us up closer and personal with this upcoming colorway of the Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10.

Utilizing the Dunkman color scheme on a LeBron model once more, the shoe rocks an upper done in Dark Grey, Volt and White. For the most part the shoe is fairly subtle, but the use of Volt on the upper and sole unit really give the shoe that Dunkman pop we’re all accustomed to. No word yet on when these will drop, but expect them to do so in the very near future.

It has just enough Volt hits to make it work and not take over the look of the shoe. It’s cool.

There is no doubt in my mind that the Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 is the most popular LeBron sneaker out there today. Having LeBron wear this model throughout the NBA Finals has forced people to pay closer attention to the laceless model. Up next for the silhouette is the Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 Camo.

The shoe is constructed out of a full try-layer foam and textile upper dressed in a camouflage print. Offsetting the print on the upper are the three straps that come in Black. Additional features on the shoe include the Dark Khaki and Olive accents placed on the Nike Swoosh and rubber outsole. No word yet on when these will drop bu enjoy these first images until further information is provided.

I’m one of the people who think the Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 is better looking than the Nike LeBron 13. With that being said, if I were to get a pair, it would not be in this colorway.
