Nike Football Kicks Off the Alpha Menace Elite with Russell Wilson PEs


Introducing Nike Football’s next great technological achievement. No, they’re not putting grass in this PE like they did for Odell Beckham, but the Nike Alpha Menace Elite introduces a new cleat base that should help peak performers reach their quickest speeds while allowing them to stop on a dime this coming gridiron season.

The Nike Alpha Menace Elite was built to be both versatile and explosive for NFL playmakers used to changing speed and direction much like Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson. The Menace utilizes fourteen studs on the outsole, eight with a standard stud that you’ll find on most Nike cleats while secondary studs add a unique configuration for better multidirectional traction perfect for cutting. The triangular edges on the studs grab and release the field almost as a shovel would.

“We used an algorithm that dictated what the lightest, strongest structure was, and we built the plate based on that information,? Nike Sr. Inline Innovator and lead footwear designer Jeff Rasmussen explained. After analyzing data, designers moved away from the usual carbon fiber for a combination of different textiles for the outsole. The upper is comprised of Flyknit and TPU yarns for a lightweight lockdown fit.

?This cleat means everything to me,? Russell Wilson said. ?When you?re a young kid you dream of certain accomplishments and things you want to do in the sports world, and this is everything that I dreamed of.?

The Nike Alpha Menace Elite will be available for pre-order on Nike.com starting March 27th with only 12 pairs of the white Russell Wilson PE being able to order in his size 12.5 for a true PE offering. General release colorways like the green pair showcased below will be available via Nike.com and select outlets on March 30th. Check out more detailed photos below and stay tuned for more updates right here on Sneaker News.

The Nike SB Bruin To Debut In Pink Motel Colorway


Nike SB fans might remember the era of the Pink Box, a time that was recently referenced through a special edition Nike SB Dunk Low colorway, and now it looks like Nike SB’s love of pastel pink shades is going to continue with the upcoming Nike SB Bruin “Pink Motel”. The pair is an homage to the legendary Los Angeles, California skate spot that became famous after the 10 foot fishbowl pool was featured in Powell Peralta’s 1987 video, The Search For Animal Chin featuring Bones Brigade (if you haven’t seen it yet, give the film a quick YouTube search and you won’t be disappointed). Since then the Pink Motel has been regularly featured in skate ads and regulars included Tony Hawk, Lance Mountain, and many more. Now you can own this Nike Bruin Pink Motel for just $75 USD and add it to your Spring/Summer 2017 rotation when it drops this Thursday, March 30th at select spots like Premier and on Nike.com.

And if the shoes themselves weren’t impressive enough, a few of them are even signed by Tinker Hatfield. If you know anybody with a better Oregon PE collection, let us know.

Virgil Abloh Shares Another Photo Of His OFF WHITE x Nike Air Force 1

Yesterday may have been Air Max Day, but Off-White head-honcho Virgil Abloh took to Instagram to show off another look at his upcoming Nike Air Force 1 Low. The unique new makeover by the streetwear label transforms the classic silhouette into a bold new sneaker with an oversized metallic silver Swoosh stitched on, a strange placement of the Nike Air Logo on the tongue, and special details like “AIR” and “SHOELACE” printed on to match Off-White’s current “Everything in Quotes” motif. It all adds up to hat will probably be the most hyped Air Force 1 release of the year. Speaking of release, there’s still no official drop date for the Off-White x Nike Air Force 1, so stay tuned to Sneaker News for further info.

A First Look At This Burgundy And Black Nike Air VaporMax

Finally, the Nike Air VaporMax has arrived! Many people have already picked up a pair of the inaugural colorways, but if you holding out until the right colorway comes along, we suggest you take a look at this never-before-seen Burgundy and Black colorway of the shoe.

The newest unveiled colorway of the Nike Air VaporMax comes dressed in a Burgundy Flyknit upper accented by the hits of Black on the ankle collar, Nike branding and the Air Max sole unit. These will definitely look the best during the Fall season, but I would not blame you one bit if you save a spot for these in your Spring weekly rotation. What’s the verdict, is this the best colorway yet? Stay tuned to find out if these end up releasing to the public.

The Nike Kobe A.D. Is Releasing With Gum Soles

Even without Kobe Bryant on the court anymore, his latest signature shoe has still managed to be one of the most popular basketball shoes on the market and on the courts around the globe. Kobe’s legacy is a major factor for his signature model to still be performing well in the marketplace, but awesome colorways like this certainly don’t hurt either. This next new look for the Nike Kobe A.D. features a clean Bone White upper and midsole for a tonal treatment, complemented with a gum rubber sole below. A great option on or off the court, these are dropping April 1st at Nike Basketball retailers like Shoe Palace.

The Nike Vapormax Completely Sold Out On Air Max Day

nike-vapormax-sold-out-on-first-weekend

Nike has another hit on their hands. The Nike VaporMax completely sold out yesterday during the Air Max Day 2017 celebration, and early feedback of the shoe that features a futuristic full-length visible air outsole with absolutely no midsole unit to help you truly ‘walk on air’ has been insanely positive. The limited runs of all three debut colorways will likely be more readily available in the future as the Swoosh garners more attention to their head-turning new silhouette (the same can’t be said about the COMME des Garcons Nike VaporMax, unfortunately).

This weekend didn’t come without its fair share of controversy. First, adidas tried to spoil the Swoosh’s weekend plans with a last minute surprise: the adidas Best of Boost celebration started Saturday, March 25th with restocks on some of their most popular Ultra Boosts and NMD colorways. Then the miadidas Ultra Boost dropped featuring Multi-Color Primeknit options at the NYC flagship store. The competitive nature of trying to steal people’s attention away from Air Max Day was awesome, and what resulted was a weekend for the ages.

While the three stripes might’ve tried to steal some of Nike’s thunder, it didn’t look like it hurt first weekend sales of the VaporMax, though. Some adidas employees were even caught tweeting out the #noairneeded tag, but Nike took the high road and had another awesome Air Max Day. The fact that Air Max technology has had a three-decade run speaks for itself, and even the best Boost offerings couldn’t deter Nike loyalists. Now if Boost is around for another decade or two, a Best of Boost weekend will definitely be able to stand on its own merit, and not just serve as a foil to a special Nike occasion. Did you end of grabbing anything this weekend? And if so, did you go with Boost over Air Max? Let us know in the comments section below.
