Nike Basketball is still bringing us heat in the Nike Kobe 11 Elite department even with the Black Mamba calling it quits after 20 seasons. Where the Swoosh takes the signature Kobe Bryant line from here will be an interesting event to see unfold, as we can never grow tired of Eric Avar’s premium Flyknit low-tops paired with Zoom cushioning and an attention to detail that was only matched by Kobe’s work ethic. Today we get a look at the upcoming Nike Kobe 11 Elite Oreo, a familiar colorway to the Flyknit series that fits perfectly with the Kobe 11’s silhouette.

This Nike Kobe 11 Elite Oreo features a lighter take on the classic White and Black speckling, as a black Swoosh branding, tongue and laces come together to contrast the white speckled midsole unit. What do you think of the look? The Nike Kobe 11 Elite Oreo will be available on Friday, October 28th for $200 USD in a men’s size run. Check out more detailed photos below and stay tuned for more of the latest release dates on Sneaker News.

Nike Basketball surprised us with the announcement that they’ll be releasing exclusive Nike Kyrie 2 and Nike LeBron Soldier 10 colorways inspired by the Cleveland Cavaliers’ unbelievable championship run in the near future before the new NBA season kicks off. Known as the “Four Wins” Championship Pack, there are four combinations available (you can find a full store list here), each featuring an exclusive PE colorway of both the Kyrie 2 and LeBron Soldier 10 representing the pairs worn in each Cavs’ NBA Finals wins in Game 3, Game 5, Game 6, and Game 7.

Today we get a brief look at all four of the Nike LeBron Soldier 10 Four Wins options, as a number of simple black and metallic gold constructions feature icy outsoles identical to the pairs worn by LeBron throughout his historic performances this past year.

The Michael J. Fox Foundation has announced how much money has been raised from the Nike Mag 2016 raffles/auctions.

Combining the donations from Nike’s The Draw system where people bought raffle tickers for $10 a piece, as well as the live auctions in Hong Kong and London, a total of $6.75 million was raised for Parkinson?s research.

The Hong Kong auction sold for $104,000 while the London auction sold for $56,800. Remember that there will still be another pair up for auction in New York on November 12th, so the total number will go even higher.

Following a black/gold release, the revived Nike Air Zoom Talaria is rendered in the classic Safari theme for its latest iteration this Fall 2016.

Initially introduced in 1997, the retro runner essentially stays true to its original design. The low-top sneaker flaunts a two-tone combination of clay orange and black across its leather and breathable mesh composition, while the defining safari element is prominent across its toe cap and collar section. All adhered atop a complementing black/white rubber sole unit, the model is finished off with notable branding on the tongue and heel.

A release date for this pair has not been announced yet, although, stay tuned to KicksOnFire for more updates as it’s expected to arrive at Nike retailers very soon.

The newly-introduced Nike Air Presto Mid Utility was already showcased in dark autumnal tones, while it’s now featured in a pristine finish as part of its Fall/Winter 2016 lineup.

Essentially a revamped makeover of the classic silhouette that is intended for the colder, the retro runner bears a new weather-resistant upper, an extended collar with zippers for easier accessibility and stylish flair, as well as reflective detailing throughout to increase its visibility during low-lit conditions. The silhouette also retains its signature design intact with the translucent lacing system across its sides and rear.

Draped in a tonal beige hue with subtle white accents, you can purchase this standout offering at select Nike retailers very soon.

The Nike LeBron 13 Low is set to return in a brand new “Graffiti” theme for Fall 2016.

Suggested as an homage to James? hometown of Akron, Ohio ? the sneaker?s upper and heel unit is treated with the defining element throughout in classic tones of black and white. Further detailed with a black and white midsole unit, the sneaker is pronounced with pops of red, yellow and blue adorning the outsole, while also correlating with its respective graffiti-esque theme perfectly.

We recently got word that the first installment of the Nike LeBron/Kyrie Championship Pack will be releasing tomorrow! Which is pretty crazy since the entire pack as a whole was barely unveiled yesterday. What you see above is the Nike LeBron/Kyrie Championship Four Wins Game 3 Pack, also known as the Nike Basketball Four Wins Game 3 Pack.

The entire Championship pack as a whole is known as the Four Wins Pack. It was made to pay homage to the heroic efforts of both LeBron James and Kyrie Irving during this past year’s NBA Finals. This first set commemorates Game 3 and will consist of a LeBron Soldier 10 done in Black and Gold as well as a Nike Kyrie 2 done in Black, Red and Yellow.

They’re very limited, but you can try your luck at any of the locations listed below. Release date is October 22nd (tomorrow!).

This Saturday, Nike Basketball will release a limited edition two-shoe Pack dubbed the ?Four Wins?

Each set of sneakers will feature different colorway along with unique packaging representing each win of the NBA Finals.

Author’s Take

I was surprised it took this long. The fact that there will be a total of 4 sets of shoes is pretty different. Kind o a dope concept if you ask me.

Previously featured, this forthcoming rendition of the Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 is showcased in more detail, as the silhouette’s distinctive theme certainly takes cues from the iconic Air Jordan 11 Space Jam.

Draped in the classic colorway, black dominates its upper and distinctive straps, while contrasting accents of white are implemented on the midsole and Swooses. Slight purple accents are applied on the inner lining, as 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.

With just 5 days to go before the NBA regular season starts, Nike Basketball is giving us all kinds of colorways to look forward to in regards to the freshly minted Nike LeBron Soldier 10. While LeBron won’t be breaking out his Nike LeBron 14 signature until 2017 with a release slated for January, he’ll most likely be rocking the Soldier 10 well into the first quarter of the season. This new Nike LeBron Soldier 10 Suede Toe should be perfect for the Cavaliers’ away uniforms thanks to a premium touch of red suede on the toecap.

The rest of this Nike Lebron Soldier 10 release is fairly standard with a traditional black mesh holding down the three strap construction and base. The Swoosh gets an interesting red outline with a black center that brings forth a hidden reflective 3M detail. While this pair is a bit more Miami-centric than past releases, what do you think of the look? Be sure to check out this new Nike LeBron Soldier 10 Suede Toe below and we’ll keep you updated on a release date in the near future.

After recently reflecting on the story of the brand’s unique outdoors basketball sneakers, Nike SNKRS now turns their attention to another idiosyncratic piece of their history for a look at the Air Safari. Still somewhat radical looking almost thirty years later, the bold and unprecedented design of the Air Safari by Tinker Hatfield was most definitely a head-turner in 1987, and according to him, a shoe most people at Nike didn’t even think was a good idea. But leave it to Tinker to create yet another radically distinct model that’s now considered an icon.

After having the idea to design a shoe that combined Nike’s sports performance technology with a more fashion-minded, non-athletic approach for casual wear, Tinker created what could now be considered the very first Nike Sportswear model in the Air Safari. As with many of his most classic designs, Tinker took inspiration from an unlikely source for the shoe: an ostrich leather couch he spotted at a luxury furniture store in New York City. Tinker’s interpretation of the textured ostrich leather would end up becoming the now-iconic Safari print that has since become one of the most recognizable and celebrated patterns utilized by Nike throughout the years.

For more details and insight from Tinker on the Air Safari, visit the full story at Nike SNKRS.
