The next colorway to release of the Nike Kyrie 2 is only one week away. Earlier in the week we gave you a first look at this grey-based pair of Kyrie 2s and today we have much better images of the show to show you.

Covered in Wolf Grey throughout the majority of the shoe, this new color option of the Nike Kyrie also features Dark Grey on the entire back half of the shoe and the tongue. Adding a touch of color is the hit of blue on the Kyrie Irving branding on the tongue. The best part of the shoe may possibly be the Swoosh on the midsole and strap that is done in a marbled/crackled print that immediately catches your eye.

Look for the Nike Kyrie 2 Wolf Grey at select Nike retailers beginning on April 7th for $120.

Grey is one of my favorite colors for sneakers because it makes them easy to wear and matches with almost anything. This Wolf Grey Kyrie 2 is one of the nice pairs that have released and that crackled Swoosh is money.

If you’re a fan of the classic Nike Air Max 90 and are looking for a sneaker ideal for the Spring season, I highly suggest you take a look at the Nike Air Max 90 Ultra BR Triple Navy. This modern take on the 90’s classic not only comes in a lighter build, but it also provides sufficient breathability which is greatly appreciated during this Spring/Summer season.

This Triple Navy colorway of the Nike Air Max 90 BR will feature an upper constructed out of an open-hole mesh material. The tonal upper is paired up with the tonal navy Air Max sole unit that comes in lighter weight compared to the OG AM90. Tonal branding, laces, lining and accents complete the monochromatic look of the shoe. If you like this tonal version of the AM90 BR, you can now purchase a pair at select retailers for $130

I like the look of the shoe. Dark colors aren’t usually the norm for the Spring but I’m willing to make an exception. Dope looking shoe, mainly because I’m biased towards navy blue sneaker.

LeBron James has always played test-dummy for his new signature shoes well before the the official debuts in early Fall, but that typically happens during the Summer off-season or during the Playoffs. LeBron’s right-hand man Brandon Weems snapped a photo of some new shoes on LeBron James’ feet that may very well be the LeBron 14 or perhaps the LeBron Soldier 10; given the straps and the leaner look, this is likely the next model of the popular Soldier that typically launches during the Summer months. The all-black shoes feature no logos and the static-y print on the ankle-strap could be a shroud to cover the big LeBron crown logo. What do you think? Is it the LeBron 14, or the Soldier 10? Check out the photo below.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s football boot, the CR7 Chapter 2: Natural Diamond, has been remastered into a lifestyle silhouette that you can wear off the field.

Nike has just unveiled the the CR7 Nike Free Mercurial Superfly which blends a flexible Nike Free outsole with a lightweight and breathable Flyknit upper. The sockliner features a crackle pattern, which symbolizes how Ronaldo has crafted his game under pressure. Ronaldo?s signature, along with the statement, ?Created to the Exact Specifications of Cristiano Ronaldo? can also be found on the sockliner. As far as the diamond inspiration goes, the chrome-colored lace tips and no-sew metallic silver Nike Swoosh are a representation of that.

The CR7 Nike Free Mercurial Superfly will be available beginning April 14 on the Nike Football App, Nike.com, and select Nike retailers for $200.

The colorway on this pair of Nike Free Mercurial Superfly is really nice. I like the diamond inspiration on the Swoosh, heel and lace tips. That royal blue also pops very nicely. Well done Nike!

Over the last couple of years, adidas Originals has been known for monochromatic sneakers in a rainbow of colors. Just think Pharrell’s “Supercolor” collection of the Superstar if you’re having trouble remembering the many tonal options from adidas. We’ve also seen the same look on the Stan Smith. Now the adicolor influence seems to have found its way over to Nike, where the Swoosh just cooked up this Tennis Classic in nothing but Green Glow. Will there be more tonal editions of the Tennis Classic to come? Is Nike biting some of adidas’ steeze? These are questions we can’t answer quite yet, but check out this Tennis Classic in Grade School sizing, and find them arriving now at select Nike Sportswear retailers.

Nike Sportswear and NikeCourt have come together to give us plenty of awesome options of the Nike Tennis Classic over the past few years. While major season is over, the lifestyle classic is perfect for the warmer months which is why you can expect the Swoosh to continue to offer new colorways of the silhouette. While many are privy to the subtle style of the perforated branding renditions, today Nike is bringing back the OG construction featuring a traditional leather Swoosh and a more complex side-panel stitching than past offerings through the use of this vibrant “Total Crimson” colorway. A vibrant orange pops on the branding and heel atop a smooth white leather upper for a simple yet standout look. Grab this pair today from select shops like Premier.

Back in the middle of March we gave you a first look at the Nike LeBron 13 Elite. Said to be the shoe of choice for LeBron James’ postseason run, today we take a closer look at all three colorways of the Nike LeBron 13 Elite set to release in the coming months.

This upgraded version of the Nike Lebron 13 will have notable features such as enlarged carbon fiber plate and a snug inner bootie to provide enhanced lockdown and stability. Another feature worth mentioning is the durable Kurim cage and the two additional Zoom Air units placed on the sole of the shoe. The colorways you will be able to choose from include black/silver, red/silver and white/gold. As of right now, Complex has stated that the red version will release on April 14th, the white colorway will drop on May 5th and the black colorway drops on May 26th? Is this an improvement from the Lebron 13? Let us know what you think in the comments below.

Author’s Take

I like the Elite version way better than the original LeBron 13. It’s probably because they removed the boomerang look from the side of the shoe. With that being said, if you’re going to want a pair, prepare to pay a hefty price tag for them as I’m sure Nike will price them pretty expensive.

Kyrie Irving and Kobe Bryant are different players. One is an all-time great that nearly duplicated (and in some ways, surpassed) the game and accomplishments of the greatest to ever play the game of basketball. The other is a lightning quick point guard still trying to find his way in the league, although his popularity and style of play has already placed him in superstar stratosphere. But what they both have in common is a brand that is committed to being the best and pushing the boundaries of innovation to its limit. As the sun sets on the career of one, Nike believes that the other can take its place. It sounds like a stretch to maybe a lot of people, but that’s why the swoosh is where they are today; they’re not afraid to take a chance. And if you’re a betting man, Kyrie Irving is not a bad guy to put your fortunes on.

Champs Sports explores the possibilities for Kyrie as he takes his place among the greats in the sneaker world. Check out the full feature on their blog, TheDrop.

Nike once again proves why they continue to be the brand to beat. For the 11th time in history, the Men’s and Women’s Final Four is comprised of teams that are sponsored by Nike. You want furtehr proof as to why Nike is the top dog? Get this, over the last decade, Nike has sponsored 80% of the Division 1 Final Four basketball appearances. Another example of their dominance is that 69% of this year’s men’s tournament consisted of Nike sponsored teams, whereas the women’s tournament held a respectable 58%. Which leads to my next question, how many Nike sponsored teams have won the NCAA Division 1 Championship? Well, being that whoever wins this year will be Nike, 16 men?s teams and 13 women?s teams have been named the cream of the crop. Amazing.

The Nike MayFly returns in four new woven colorways exclusively in a women’s size run for Spring 2016. One of the lightest running shoes Nike’s ever made, the MayFly was created in stark contrast to the theory of longevity, as the shoe helped long distance runners by being incredibly lightweight and thus promised a shorter lifespan. The same can’t be said about the lifestyle Nike MayFly Woven though, as a bolstered suede upper sees a chukka-like inspiration with a horizontal woven stripe slicing through the side panels to run parallel to the midsole. Vachetta Tan lining and brief glimpses of gum accents on the outsole add a lifestyle touch to four colorways ranging from Sail, Black, Midnight Navy, and Maroon. Check out more photos below and expect these women’s MayFly releases to hit retailers later this April.

For the 11th time in history, the Final Four will be comprised of teams solely sponsored by Nike for both the men’s and women’s tournaments. The March Madness numbers are staggering: in the past decade alone, the Swoosh has sponsored around 80 percent of Division 1 Final Four basketball appearances. Looking at the tournament as a whole, 69 percent of this year’s men’s tournament featured teams representing Nike, while the women’s tournament fielded well over half at 58 percent. So how many teams have won the NCAA Division 1 Championship wearing Nike branding? After a guaranteed Nike victory this year, 16 men’s teams and 13 women’s teams have cut down the nets while saluting the Swoosh. That’s dominance.

The Nike Kyrie 2 hasn’t seen as many grade school-centric releases as its predecessor, but the playful skateboard inspiration has a new pair joining the ranks as a kids only colorway with the Kyrie 2 GS White Red. The color choice of White and Univeristy Red almost makes the pair look like a Christmas offering thanks to speckling and an icy outsole, but the inspiration for the look remains unclear. Faint graphics of a hand holding up the number 1 sign hit the tongue and ankle collar while the midfoot strap cuts the shoe’s color blocking into half red, half white. Spots like Villa have the pair in stock right now, so act now while supplies last.

Following a standout pack the celebrated the Australian Open, the Nike Tennis Classic is introduced in another colorway, this time specifically listed in GS sizes only.

Flaunting a tonal hue overall, the defining tone consists of Green Glow, which essentially covers the sneaker’s entire profile. Premium leather is utilized for its upper while miniature perforations are utilized to highlight the iconic Swoosh logo across its sides.

Subtly contrasted by white accents on the tongue label and heel tab with more branding, the model is finished off with a matching full-length rubber sole unit and laces. You can find this pair at select Nike stores overseas now.

I’m all for simplicity and this model perfectly exemplifies that. The bright finish is perfect for the warmer months ahead and you’ll grab attention nonetheless.

The latest take on the Nike Air Max 1 Premium is showcased, as it receives elephant print detailing as its primary aesthetic element.

Sporting an understated palette of grey across its smooth suede upper, the defining theme is applied on the component as well, while it’s more prominent on the mudguard and heel which is comprised of supple leather.

Additionally, vibrant touches of ghost green adorn the inner lining and visible air bubble unit in the heel to complement its colorway, as it’s all finished off by a clean white sole unit.

Find a pair at select Nike stores nationwide now for $120.

I’ll always be an advocate for this runner. I’m just a fan of its design. This pair is another solid offering but I only dislike the green accents.
