After Kobe Bryant’s retirement at the end of last season, the NBA lost another living legend today when Tim Duncan officially announced he’s calling it quits. The Big Fundamental had a career on the court that rivals some of the all-time greats?including Kobe?but unlike the Black Mamba, most of us won’t remember him for the sneakers he wore throughout his career. Spending most of his nineteen years on the court with the San Antonio Spurs wearing adidas, his sneakers were most often quite an accurate representation of his game: very effective with great performance, but not flashy, or even that memorable at all. No offense to adidas, but can you even recite the name of one of his signature models with the Three Stripes?

The Nike Roshe Run has been a lifestyle go-to for well over the past four years. Ever since Dylan Raasch’s Zen-inspired design hit retail shelves, people have flocked to the model for the breathable comfort and flawless silhouette to create an instant classic that’s loved the world over. The only problem over the past half-decade has been in regards to when we’d get an actual successor to the first installment. So is this pair the Nike Roshe Two? The highly anticipated sequel could finally be unveiled here courtesy of Calvin Nguyen. The Roshe Two features a bolstered upper for more support, a slip-on neoprene construction and a midsole that ditches any lingering hints of natural motion for a throwback to the original. What do you think of the look? More photos below.

While it released this past weekend, a detailed look at the standout Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 Kay Yow is provided, as the model is simply treated in the brand’s Think Pink initiative.

Even though I don’t like the sneaker much in terms of design, this is for a good cause. This silhouette is valuable since LBJ won his first title with Cleveland wearing it.

This is a decent looking silhouette but I’m not a big fan of the tonal colorway. I would like to see it dressed in more color.

I like this black colorway better than the white but I still wouldn’t buy a pair for $175. Maybe if they were closer to $100 I’d consider it.

Aside from its Unlimited variation, the Nike LunarEpic Flyknit Low is introduced in another multicolor iteration for the summer season.

This time flaunting a mixture of light green, blue, purple and more across its intricately knitted upper, the eye-catching component is complemented with tonal black accents gracing the flywire support across its side panels, laces, inner lining and branding on the tongue tab.

All resting atop a crisp, white full-length sole unit, the sneaker’s overall design is topped off with more white accents on the side panels with the recognizable Swoosh logo.

Listed for $160, stay tuned to KicksOnFire for its availability nationwide, which is expected very soon.

The Air Jordan 9 is next up to get the “Remastered” treatment, as we can see here by this upcoming edition of the OG white and black colorway. The first colorway of the Air Jordan 9 which released during MJ’s stint playing minor league baseball, the white, black, and red version has never retroed with one special detail found on this upcoming release: original “Nike Air” branding on the insoles. Is this small detail a good enough reason to pick up this oft-retroed colorway? Check out a good look at them here, and stay tuned for a release date.

The Nike Zoom Spiridon is making waves thanks to some OG colorways returning to celebrate the iconic running model’s 20th birthday and then there’s the freshly minted lifestyle gem in the Nike Zoom Mercurial Flyknit Spiridon which brings the series up to speed with modern sensibilities. Today we get a look at a mixture of both, as NikeLab transforms the Zoom Spiridon by keeping things simple with a mixture of reflective accents and bold chrome details. The duo sports a simple mesh construction with a herringbone pattern on the mudguard in either white or black, allowing for grey speckled midsoles and a bold patent leather chrome Swoosh to do most of the head-turning. Underlying reflective panels liven up the offering for a simple, refined, yet just bold enough aesthetic perfect for the remainder of summer. Check out more of the Zoom Spiridon’s latest NikeLab lifestyle transformation below and be on the lookout for pairs of this 1996 classic to arrive at NikeLab outlets on July 16th.

Official imagery of the Nike LeBron 13 Low in Triple Black are now revealed, as it only indicates that the silhouette will be offered nationwide very soon.

Currently offered overseas first, the basketball sneaker is simply defined by its breathable mesh composition with tonal synthetic overlays throughout its upper. Supplemented atop a matching sole with the signature visible Max Air unit in the heel for enhanced cushioning, the blacked-out profile is pronounced with subtle touches of silver gracing the insoles, while hits of grey are focalized on the heel and tongue for a nice contrasting finish. Other notable elements include tonal branding on the tongue tab and rear portion, in addition to pull tabs to allow easier accessibility.

Retailing for $150, you can expect to find this pair at select Nike retailers stateside in the coming days or weeks ahead. Stay tuned for updates.

Author’s Take

I like the silhouette in a low-top and most definitely in this colorway. It?s pretty solid and versatile overall. This pair looks great and perfect for everyday wear.

Although not featured, this latest variation of the Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 is actually part of the standout Unlimited collection, which is essentially a tribute to the 2016 Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Flaunting a predominantly blacked-out profile, the vibrant multicolor theme is focalized on the ankle strap, while its stealthy makeup is further pronounced with iridescent Swooshes located across the heel. Juxtaposed against a crisp, white midsole unit and icy translucent outsole to cap off its bold, yet subdued profile, the sneaker is set to debut at select Nike retailers on August 4th.

The official retail price tag is listed at $140.

Author’s Take

I like the 9 better, even though James wore this silhouette to win the championship. I?m just not a fan of the higher build and this is too bulky for my taste. Nice colorway though.

The Nike Spiridon series has had an eclectic multi-decade run yet is still relatively unknown given the limited release and seldom-seen retros. 2016 looks to be a banner year for the Spiridon collective though, as the original Nike Zoom Spiridon is celebrating its 20th anniversary with a number of OG colorways hitting store shelves throughout the summer. Then there’s the revamped Nike Zoom Mercurial Flyknit Spiridon, a lifestyle offering that takes the unique outsole unit and dresses the upper in a woven Flyknit high top construction to fit right in with the soccer-inspired Mercurial series while a leather heel panel adds some support. So far, we’ve seen a number of monochromatic colorways including a Triple White, but this tonal Squadron Blue might be a little easier to keep clean with the heavy use the stylish silhouette it demands. What do you think of the look? Check out more detailed photos below and we’ll keep you updated on when the Mercurial Flyknit Spiridon hits stateside retail shelves in the near future.

To follow-up on a standout collaboration with Balmain’s Olivier Rousteing, the Nike Air Footscape Magista is now rendered in midnight turquoise for its latest colorway this summer.

Defined by its breathable flyknit upper and extended sock-like collar, the components are essentially shaded in the defining hue, while contrasting accents of black are implemented on the laces, pull tabs and suede overlays on the heel. Other notable elements include tonal synthetic Swooshes across its side panels, in addition to more miniature embroidered Swooshes located across its heel.

The sneaker/soccer boot hybrid is adhered atop a clean, white phlyon midsole unit with subtle speckling to finish off the composition, as a waffle rubber outsole provides sufficient traction and durability.

Priced at $200, you can purchase a pair at select Nike retailers worldwide now.

I don’t own a pair, but, I’m a big fan of the silhouette. I’m biased towards this colorway and I’d consider purchasing. You can’t go wrong with a pair.

This year’s Team USA Olympic basketball team has an odd mix of some old favorites like Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony and a fresh crop of some first-timers making for an unpredictable ride through the Rio Olympic games. What was also unexpected was Nike Basketball’s move to transform the Hyperdunk series into an “Elite” model with a high-arching Flyknit construction complete with a sock-like ankle collar in the Nike Hyperdunk 2016 Elite. The pair is decked out in Nike’s latest tech and also exudes an aesthetic that can thrive off the court as well with an almost Magista-esque quality. This “USA” themed pair splits the upper between Dark Obsidian on the main portion and a Bright Crimson on the medial side while that unique Zoom-infused outsole unit adds a beautiful icy touch. What do you think of the Hyperdunk 2016 Elite? Check out more detailed photos of the first premium Hyperdunk installment and know that this pair will be available at stores like Sneaker Politics on July 18th for $200 USD.
