Kevin Durant‘s offseason signing with the Golden State Warriors reads like Drake’s opening on Big Rings from What A Time To Be Alive. And while the Dubs are the undoubted favorites to take home some very big rings by next season’s end, the team still has to get acclimated through 82 regular season games. What better way to do it than by releasing a number of new team-centric colorways of Durant’s team shoe, the Nike KD Trey 5 IV?

The KD Trey 5 IV is everything KD’s signature model is not. Instead of a full-length Zoom Air cushioning system, the forefoot gets the responsive boost while a general phylon midsole offers a lightweight alternative. There’s no Flyknit here either. Instead, a mesh upper complete with optimal ventilation adds a breathable mid-top construction. Standard team-issued colorways of Game Royal, University Red, White, and Black are all available today starting at $115 USD. Check out a better preview below and head over to Nike.com to grab your pair today.

The men’s team gets all the glory, but the women’s USA Basketball team has actually been one of the most dominant Olympics teams?in any sport?for year’s now. How dominant? They haven’t lost a single game in the Olympic tournaments since before the 1996 team was assembled. That 1996 team was perhaps the most legendary of them all, and the equivalent of the 1992 men’s Dream Team when it come’s to women’s hoops. The squad with women’s basketball royalty like Sheryl Swoopes, Dawn Staley, Lisa Lesley, and Rebecca Lobo is honored by Nike Basketball twenty years later with a special edition of the Hyperdunk 2016 Low, featuring a patriotic red, white, and blue colorway with a stylized flag tie-dye graphic. Celebrate the dominance of women’s basketball in the USA with your own pair, available August 20th at select Nike retailers and the Nike SNKRS app.

With the Nike Air Force 1 Ultra Flyknit having made its debut earlier this year, we can expect more and more colorways to release as the Summer comes to an end and we get into the Fall.

One of the latest offerings is the pair that we see above which is of the low top variety and features a couple of different shades of blue on the upper along with contrasting hits of white on the branding, and Ultra sole. Additional blue accents have been added on the leather heel tab, laces, tongue, and eyestay.

You can pick up this Flyknit Air Force 1 at select Nike accounts now for $160.

This is probably my favorite colorway that I’ve seen so far. I hope to add this pair to my collection down the line when it eventually gets discounted.

Joining the Maroon colorway that we recently showcased, there is also a black version of the new Nike Air Tech Challenge 2.

Inspired by Brogue styling that we typically see on dress shoes, this Nike Air Tech Challenge 2 comes equipped with a full suede upper done in black with Vachetta Tan leather detailing on the heels which have been hit with perforated accents. Finishing details include a white midsole and rubber outsole.

Are you a bigger fan of the Night Maroon or Black colorway? Let us know in the comments below and look for both pairs to arrive at stateside retailers in the near future.

The combination of the suede upper and vachetta tan detailing give the Air Tech Challenge 2 a new lifestyle look. I like it.

The classic Nike Air Trainer Max from 1991 is back for another retro run this fall, and today we get a look at an all-new colorway in a clean blend of white, black, and grey. Almost a total flip of the original black and white colorway, this new version features a white leather and mesh upper with black accents and a light grey outsole for a clean new look to the Bo Jackson-worn training shoe. Vintage trainer fans should be on the lookout for the Air Trainer Max 91 at select Nike Sportswear retailers soon.

Opposing guards can’t even take getting schooled by Kyrie Irving personally anymore, it’s just what the man does. Kyrie has some of the best handles the game has ever seen, and at 24 years young he still has time to get even better at it. That’s a scary thought. Nike Basketball is referencing both the back to school season and Kyrie’s unique ability to string the ball on an invisible yo-yo with the Nike Kyrie 2 “School Bus”, out today in youth sizes only.

The vibrantly colored University Gold upper adds a contrasting black midfoot strap to match the Kyrie 2 School Bus lines on the heel. A new stop sign logo reads ‘Kyrie’ on the tongue while black speckles land on the midsole for added depth. Grab this kid’s exclusive Kyrie 2 today from Nike.com.

The post Nike Releases The Kyrie 2 ?School Bus? appeared first on Sneaker News.

Nike has just released a new colorway of the Nike Kyrie 2 exclusively for the grade school crowd.

Known as the School Bus colorway, this eye-catching Kyrie 2 features a bright University Gold mesh upper along with Black, White, and University Red accents. Notable details include a speckled midsole, ?SCHOOL BUS? written on the heel, and a Kyrie stop sign on the tongue. If anyone in the GS category is interested in picking up a pair you can do so now directly from nike.com for $100.

Author’s Take

The stop sign on the tongue and the school bus writing on the heel make it look too much like a kids release. Take those two tings off and this definitely would have been a hit for adults.

Andre Agassi’s signature on-court style was one of the most unique tennis games at the professional level. Pair that with his crazy hair, denim Nike commissioned get-ups and his flashy signature silhouettes, and his aesthetic was as legendary as his game. The Nike Air Tech Challenge II may not have gotten this Brogue look until decades after he retired, but we wouldn’t have put it past Nike to release an in-game variety featuring the dress shoe-like ensemble back in the 90s.

We’ve seen the Air Tech Challenge II get some premium treatments in the past for Nike’s Grand Slam celebrations but they’ve since toned down the retro with premium suede and micro-perforated leather. Two suede renditions in either Black or Night Maroon showcase this pair’s crossover appeal as a Vachetta Tan leather heel pairs ornamental perforated patterns with a matching ankle collar. A clean white midsole/outsole combination adds the perfect finish.

Be sure to check out more detailed shots below and know that international spots like Titolo have these dress shoe-inspired Agassi retros for sale today.

Group play for Team USA Basketball has concluded and it looks like the victory lap that many anticipated has hit a few snags along the way. After a dominant exhibition season and a pair of easy wins to start the tournament, USA barely squeaked out wins against Australia, Serbia and France. While they are still undefeated heading into the knockout rounds, all the talk about international basketball taking a step back these past few years sounds a little haphazard now.

Since we are still a sneaker blog based in America (and because the Philippines didn’t even make it to Rio), we’ll be rooting for KD, ‘Melo, Uncle Drew, Boogie and the rest to take home the gold this week. Here’s a look back at the kicks they’ve worn so far including some new colorways of the Nike KD 9, Nike Kyrie 2, Air Jordan XXX1 and many more. Hopefully someone gets real bold and break out some gold (probably Draymond Green) for the medal rounds.

To follow-up on a recent gym red colorway, the Nike Air Max 95 Ultra SE is now revealed in an upcoming fall-appropriate finish.

Sporting a mixture of olive with yellow gold-like accents across its seamless foam and mesh upper, the component is also detailed with perforations along its eye stays to enable superb ventilation as well. A two-toned exposed flywire system complements the understated build, as it all rests atop a matching full-length sole unit to top it all off.

A release date has not been announced yet, but, stay tuned to KicksOnFire for additional updates.

Author’s Take

I?ll always be a fan of this model. I really like the exposed lacing system and the build on this pair is just appealing. This colorway is a crowd pleaser as well.

The post Autumn Tones Highlight This Upcoming Nike Air Max 95 Ultra SE appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

Last offered in lasered iterations, the Nike Air Tech Challenge 2 returns this summer in an autumn-inclined colorway.

Flaunting premium suede across its upper, dipped in night maroon, complementing accents of vachetta tan adorn the tongue label, lacing panel on the ankle and intricate detailing across the heel to pronounce its bold, yet understated colorway. The two tones are simply offset by a crisp, white rubber sole unit that finishes off the clean design.

You can find this pair at select Nike retailers overseas now, but, a stateside release is expected to make its arrival soon.

I used to wear this silhouette often back then. I’m still a big fan of the model and in this colorway, it’s just another appealing option.

Following this pair in four shades, another multicolored Nike Air Huarache is currently available, as the color scheme seems more appropriate for the upcoming Fall season.

Flaunting a mixture of sail white and midnight navy across its upper, the two tones are complemented with its signature TPU heel cage in ale brown. The model is rounded out with a matching sail white midsole unit and navy outsole to cap off its respective colorway.

Retailing for $120, you can find this pair at select Nike retailers worldwide now.

You can never go wrong with this silhouette. The colorway is an appealing option as well. I’m just a fan overall.

Furthermore, subtle hits of ale brown adorn the heel via branding.

I?m a fan of the silhouette overall and this colorway is simple, but, still appealing. I?m biased, but, it?s a really nice offering.

The post This Two-Toned Nike Air Max BW Is Now Available appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

Nike Sportswear revived those old school 90s telephone ads when re-introducing the retro Nike Zoom Talaria to the world. The cult-classic silhouette featured a premium ride thanks to Zoom technology and was at the top of plenty of retro running collector’s lists given how difficult the 1997 model was to find before a re-release happened this past March. Now after initial original colorways have hit retailers, NSW is getting creative with a number of lifestyle-ready looks.

The Nike Talaria is back in a new black and brown look perfect for the coming Fall 2016 season. The casual take features a premium black leather construction with brown piping throughout. But there’s more – that same brown shade doubles as a reflective 3M material when the light hits for a head-turning look perfect for nighttime running. Also included is premium metallic gold speckling on the outsole unit that perfectly compliments the casual brown throughout. No word yet on a release date, but check out more official Nike photos after the break and stay tuned for more right here on Sneaker News.
