Nike Basketball is keeping things simple with the latest Nike Kobe 11 EM release, as a pristine White, Cool Grey, and Black combination helps the silhouette stand out atop an icy outsole. While the Kobe 11 will be known as the last Nike model ever worn by the Black Mamba on-court before his retirement, Nike Basketball has managed to keep people interested with a number of recent colorways that pay homage to past releases ranging from the Mambacurial to the 4KB series. This White/Ice aesthetic manages to be more of a team-centric release with the only pop of vibrancy being the four red stitches on the heel.

Underlying Dynamic Flywire helps add support and subtly peeks through the engineered mesh and fuse upper in wolf grey for a slight contrast. The real call to attention here is the hypnotizing icy outsole which pairs quite well with a simple white upper. What do you think of the latest Kobe 11 EM release? Check out more detailed shots below and know that you can grab your pair on September 24th via Nike.com.

With LeBron James to star in Space Jam 2, this upcoming variation of the Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 may be the perfect sneaker that we’ll see in the film as well.

Essentially a tribute to the iconic Air Jordan 11 Space Jam, this silhouette simply takes cues from its classic colorway. Black is dominant across its upper and distinctive straps, while contrasting accents of white are implemented on the midsole and Swooses. Finally, an icy translucent outsole finishes off the colorway and respective theme altogether.

An official release date has not been announced yet, but, stay tuned to KicskOnFire for further updates.

Although it’s not officially confirmed, I was wondering what sneaker would be used for the movie. This variation doesn’t look that bad either. The silhouette is still a pass for me though.

As the colder seasons approach, Nike has begun their annual launch of their collection of winter footwear. Duckboots have been a popular trend of Nike over the past few years and this year should be no different. The latest addition is the Nike Lunar Force 1 Duckboot in “Team Red”.

Featuring a red leather upper while sitting atop of Nike’s signature Lunar midsole for increased versatility and a sturdy gum outsole, these duckboots were made to withstand the roughest of conditions.

This colorway is just too plain for me. I don’t own any Air Max Zeros yet, so when I buy my first pair it’s gonna be something with more color than this.

Olive-colored sneakers are a hit with most sneakerheads year round, but the Fall season is when brands release a healthy dose of kicks using the exceptional color scheme.

Joining the Olive family this Fall will be the Nike Air Max 1 Ultra Flyknit. This lighter and more comfortable version of the Air Max 1 that released earlier this year gets covered in a Neutral Olive upper combined with Black and Sequoia accents. Additional black hyperfuse is seen on the mudguard for durability and support. Down below we have a black sole unit that provides you with comfort and a smooth ride.

There is no stateside release date at the moment but you can expect them to arrive at retailers this Fall.

I love olive sneakers and this pair of Air Max 1s is real nice. I think this pair has too much black though.

Not to be confused with the Black and Red colorway that we recently went over, this version of the Nike Air Max Zero comes with a Red and Black upper. Yea, there’s a big difference between the two.

This bold iteration of “the one before the one” comes with a Reddish/Pink upper done in the classic mesh and hyperfuse construction. Blackish/Brown accents provide the contrast as they can be found on the overlays and tongues. Lastly, a White midsole and tonal outsole complete the look of the shoe. Is this better than the aforementioned Bred colorway? Let us know in the comments below.

I prefer this colorway over the one above. The additional Black gives it more of a versatile look.

To celebrate 20 years of the Nike Air Max 95, Nike created an updated version of the Nike Air Max 95 in 2015. Known as the Nike Air Max 95 Ultra SE, the shoes boasts a modernized upper with new features such as the use of Flywire and a jacquard-constructed upper. Today we get an on-feet look at the newest colorway.

The AM 95 Ultra SE comes with a similar color scheme found on the classic AM 95 Neon. It has  similar Grey gradient panels placed on the jacquard-constructed upper. In addition, it also comes with dual-colored Flywire cables and Volt hits on the branding on sole unit to give the shoe that nice pop we all know and love. Available internationally, we hope these drop stateside in the near future.

I actually prefer this Nike Air Max 95 Ultra SE version over the original version. It has much of a sleeker look to it. I’d be down to get a pair, this colorway is pretty fire.

Not too long ago we let you guys know that Nike had plans on bringing back the Nike Air Penny 4 sometime next year (2017). We know have hard that the colorways you see above will be one of the pairs you’ll be able to get your hands on once the model begins to re-release.

The women’s exclusive Nike Air Max Thea continues to receive solid colorways throughout the season, as it’s now introduced in a fall-appropriate tone of medium olive.

Furthermore, black swooshes and a full-length rubber sole unit in white finishes off the design.

To follow-up on its Olympic rendition, the Nike Air Max BW Ultra is introduced in a new colorway comprised of classic tones, as part of its Fall 2016 lineup.

Unlike the sneaker’s typical construction, this variation is a modernized pair. Sleek Hyperfuse is utilized for its stealthy upper to ensure more comfort, ventilation throughout and a much lighter feel. Further detailed with the recognizable Swooshes across its side panels and perforations on the heel, the sneaker is adhered atop a white midsole unit to complement its understated profile.
