Nike has created a new running shoe known as the Nike Zoom VaporFly Elite which they hope will be the answer to breaking the two-hour marathon barrier.

The concept shoe features progressive Nike ZoomX midsole cushioning. Remarkably lighter, softer and more responsive than traditional foams ? this is reflected in a distinctive 21mm forefoot stack height. Designed to give runners more energy return while simultaneously providing cushioning from the road, the Nike Zoom Vaporfly Elite combines athlete insight with biomechanics analysis and cutting-edge engineering.

?NikeZoomX truly enables the innovation of the Nike Zoom Vaporfly Elite,? says Tony Bignell, VP of Footwear Innovation for Nike, Inc. ?The groundbreaking new Nike ZoomX midsole and curved carbon fiber plate work together to provide responsive cushioning and minimized energy loss at toe off.?

It’s no secret that translating the NBA’s best into video game form doesn’t always go smoothly. For every picture-perfect LeBron James in NBA 2K17, there’s a Steve Nash where you wonder what the hell just happened (it’s usually the big hair guys that suffer from this). The same goes for their uniforms and of course, their kicks.

2K Sports has certainly improved the quality of their sneaker scanning tech through the years, resulting in most of the best in-game models in any basketball title. Their relationship with Nike and Jordan Brand has meant wonders for the game, as they have access to kicks that you won’t see in any other games. You can even tell which kicks are the favorites of the designers; judging from the number of options in the shoe editor and the quality of the results in an actual game.

So it shouldn’t come as a surprise to anybody that cover athlete Paul George’s debut signature shoe, the Nike PG 1, would look like hot fire out of the gate. And the same goes for this week’s featured pair, the upcoming Nike PG 1 NBA 2K colorway.

From the luminous sheen on the swoosh and PG logos to the bobber lacelock to the fish scale side panels to the volt accents and translucent properties on the outsole, the Nike PG 1 NBA 2K is as close to the real thing as most of us are going to get. Why? With so much hype for George’s signature pair right now, there’s no doubt in our minds that the PG 1 NBA 2K is going to hard pair to cop when they launch in a few weeks.

Roger Bannister completed the sub-4 minute mile 63 years ago and since then, the running world has focused on completing a marathon in under 2 hours. That’s been no easy feat, as accomplishing that record would mean a pace of 4.5 minutes each mile for 26.2 of them. It’s an obsession with pushing the limits of human athleticism that’s driven both Nike and adidas to compete with their latest models in honor of the coming marathon season. The three stripes unveiled their adidas adiZero Sub2 Marathon Shoe featuring Boost cushioning, and now Nike has answered the call with the Nike Zoom VaporFly Elite. The model is aimed at redefining speeds on the road through a responsive cushioning system and lightweight knit upper that completely reshapes the way we think about running models.

The Swoosh started with a less is more motto but that quickly transformed into a ‘more is more’ echo. More research, more data, more individual designs based on specific athlete’s foot structure. Nike cut down on the actual cushioning throughout but sought to maximize the areas where energy return would benefit. What resulted was the ZoomX midsole, a painstakingly researched process as part of Nike’s Breaking2 platform in order to break the two-hour marathon barrier. Traditional racing shoes feature a flat, low profile but the Zoom VaporFly Elite changes that form through traditional foams rising higher than ever at 21mm. Hidden inside is a unidirectional carbon fiber plate while the heel juts out to help a specific geometric fit to reduce running stiffness.

Check out more photos of this concept marathon runner below, and while we might have to wait until we see this pair actually hit retailers given the custom form of the concept, you can check out more of the future of Nike Zoom Running over on Nike News.

Leave it to Riccardo Tisci to bring his high-fashion inclinations to the Nike Air Max 97. The head-turning silhouette featuring those iconic wavy side panels has seen a number of quickstrike releases throughout 2017 in honor of the model’s 20th-anniversary celebration, and while we’re still waiting on a widespread release for the Silver Bullets, the Riccardo Tisci x NikeLab Air Max 97 Mid is the latest iteration of the retro to steal the show.

Blessed with a full grain leather in black with contrast white stitching throughout, Tisci upgrades the new mid-top form with metallic gold accents on the Swoosh and ‘RT’ branding on the tongue to match the premium lace tips. A simple white midsole highlights the full volume visible air units below. This is by far the most premium offering throughout the Air Max Day celebration that’s dominated the month of March thus far, and today we finally get some release info on the upcoming collaboration.

The successor to the Air Zoom Pegasus 33 is revealed with the introduction of this Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 34.

Although similar, yet sleeker compared to its predecessor, the silhouette features an updated Flymesh upper that employs translucent monofilament yarn for lightweight containment and ventilation. The radiused heel tapers on the lateral side to promote a natural range of motion, while its supportive, responsive underfoot feel is executed with the marriage of Nike Zoom Air units in the forefront and heel to premium Cushlon ST foam.

Availability is scheduled for June 8th at select Nike retailers worldwide.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for further updates.

Almost similar to the recently featured Nike Zoom Vaporfly 4%, the new Nike Zoom Fly applies the principles of the game-changing Nike Zoom Vaporfly Elite to a shoe that is fast enough for race day, yet durable enough for everyday training.

Boasting a sleek flymesh upper with midfoot dynamic flywire for lightweight containment, the model is supplemented atop an ultra-lightweight, soft and highly resilient Lunarlon foam that creates a light, responsive underfoot experience, while an embedded full-length carbon infused nylon plate increases stiffness. Additionally, a high abrasion rubber in the heel for durability completes the tooling.

Furthermore, the silhouette’s 10mm offset is designed to minimize Achilles strain and the 33mm stack height ensures impact protection for long distances.

If you’re interested in a pair, availability is scheduled for June 8th.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for more updates.

With its Flyknit Metallic Black Gold iteration debuting tomorrow, the traditional Nike Air Max 90 receives another standout colorway as part of its Spring 2017 lineup.

Rendered in sunset glow, the vibrant theme is simply intended for the warmer months ahead, and so is the sneaker’s overall composition. Perforated mesh are utilized for its underlays to ensure superb breathability, while leather overlays further reinforce its standout profile.

Light sunset pink accents are applied on the swooshes, branding on the tongue and heel to further pronounce its style, as it’s all adhered atop a white midsole unit and versatile gum outsole to round out the design altogether.

You can purchase this women’s pair at select Nike retailers overseas now, while a stateside release is expected soon.

The Swoosh unveils a new model with the Nike Zoom Vaporfly 4%, as it was designed to improve the efficiency of all runners.

Created under Nike?s Breaking2 project, an innovation to break the two-hour marathon barrier, the sneaker simply redefines the look and feel of fast running.

Boasting a sleek flymesh upper with midfoot dynamic archband that provides zero distraction containment, a supplemented full-length carbon fiber plate is tuned to minimize energy loss during toe bend without increasing demand for the calf. Finally, the Nike ZoomX midsole provides cushioning over every stride and delivering greater energy return.

Further punctuated by an aerodynamic heel counter that highlights the shoe?s aesthetic, this bold design of the sneaker makes runners 4% more efficient compared to Nike’s previous fastest marathon shoe.

Rendered in lead colorways inspired by the speed and elegance of auto racing at Monza, this model is scheduled to make its official debut at Nike retailers on June 8th.

There are some sneaker concepts that just work better on paper, and the upcoming atmos x Air Jordan 3 “Safari” might be one of them. Images of this upcoming Air Jordan 3, one half of the “atmos” Pack that also features the atmos x Air Max 1 “Elephant, have emerged, and the design details are clearly taken from the Japanese retailer’s 2003 collaboration. It features Safari print on the toe and heel, hits of orange, and a translucent outsole (a detail taken from the 2016 version of the iconic AM1 release). These will release as part of a Pack, which is rumored to retail for $400. We do know that the Air Max 1 will release on its own, but it is not clear if the Air Jordan 3 atmos will be available as a solo release. Stay tuned for a release date.

It doesn’t need to said that SB Dunks were a major part of growing sneaker culture into the global phenomenon it is today. Skaters and non-skaters alike chased down these releases, but it wasn’t always rainbows and sunshine for Nike. The skating community as a whole was resistant to a big corporation like Nike entering the fold, and it wasn’t until 2002 that Nike SB became a reality. Vice Sports and Nike SB have teamed up to tell the real story behind one of the most influential categories of sneaker culture, and if you’re a fan of Vice’s journalistic style, you already know that some never-before-seen footage and information will make its way to the screen. Look for Vice’s documentary on SB to air this Thursday on Vice and NikeSB.com.
