After Nike bought Converse a few years ago, no shoe has benefited more than Chuck Taylor All-Star. Taking advantage of Nike’s technology, first the iconic sneaker got upgraded with Lunarlon cushioning, and now comes the next chapter of Chuck innovation: a Flyknit construction. After Nike modified many of their own classic silhouettes with Flyknit, they now turn their attention to the Chuck Taylor for this brand-new version featuring a fully woven upper?marking the first time Flyknit has been used on a non-Nike sneaker.

Get a first look at the Chuck Taylor All Star II Flyknit here in a high-top (you can also expect a low version coming soon), and get ready for their release on April 8th.

With all of the Nike Zoom Spiridon Ultra updates, it’s nice to see the OG construction finally return and in some new colorways for the Spring 2017 season. We’re not knocking the lightweight variant by any means, in fact, the Spiridon Ultra is one of the few silhouettes that the modernized update actually works for given the Zoom Air cushioning system, sleek mesh upper, and oversized Swoosh branding, but there’s still nothing like a classic. Today we get a look at 3 new updates in the Nike Spiridon QS “Summer Pack” now available at select retailers for $150 USD each. The options range from the standout Turbo Green look, a Light Midnight option perfect for anyone who missed out on the alphabetized update from Roundel London, and a simple tonal Light Ash. Check out all of the coming colorways below and know that select shops like BAIT have a full size run available right now. Expect the trio to hit Nike.com in the near future.

Updated April 4th, 2017: The Nike Air Max Plus ?Silver Bullet? releases on April 13th, 2016 for $150.

The Nike Air Max 97 “Silver Bullet” is finally getting a general release in the US on April 13th, but before we all get a shot at the head-turning classic that was once an Italian staple, Nike Sportswear is dressing up a number of their other Air Max retros with the sought after Metallic Silver/Red combination to help ease the pain of missing out on the AM97. First we saw the Air Max 95 “Silver Bullet” featuring the patent leather look repurposed to fit the overall shape of the iconic AM95 and now another European staple will follow suit with the Nike Air Max Plus. The “Silver Bullet” colorway works rather well on the Air Max Plus given the aggressive side panel overlays and breathable mesh upper. The smaller side panel Swoosh even matches the overall size of the Air Max 97’s. We’re not sure when this women’s exclusive Air Max Plus Silver Bullet will be available, but head over to our Release Dates page for an updated look at all of Nike Sportswear’s latest offerings. Stay tuned for more updates.

The Nike Flyknit Racer has been a lifestyle staple since bursting onto the scene in 2012. Since then, we’ve seen yearly retros of the Oreo, Multi-Color and Black/White option while Nike Sportswear finally gifted us with Triple Black and Triple White colorways not so long ago. It looks like it’s time for a sequel though, or at least a revamped construction. That’s where the recently previewed Nike Air Zoom Mariah Flyknit Racer comes in, with a supportive heel counter referencing the legendary Nike Air Mariah running retro while a modern slip-on ankle collar fits perfectly with the Flyknit throughout. The Mariah Flyknit Racer will debut on June 22nd in White/Hyper Crimson in both men’s and women’s size runs while a women’s exclusive Volt/Chlorine Blue will drop on July 6th. The “Oreo” colorway previewed above will likely release around the same time.

It’s almost Nike Sock Dart season! The early 2000s Nike retro was truly ahead of its time given that the model featured the precursors to both Flyknit and Nike Free technology. While it was a cult-favorite in Japan, it didn’t really catch on until later down the road when slip-on uppers became a must-have in both comfort and style. Today we get a look at an updated construction known as the Nike Sock Dart Breathe, as a ventilated mesh adds more air circulation throughout for the perfect go-to for the coming Spring/Summer 2017 seasons. Throw in a monochromatic Arctic Orange colorway with an updated strap that throws out the traditional translucent look and this pastel offering should be perfect for the warm seasons ahead. You can purchase the Nike Sock Dart Breathe Arctic Orange today from Premier and expect a full size run to arrive via Nike.com in the near future.
