Aaron Gordon Destroys Nike Shoes While Performing An Insane Dunk


Coming in second place never felt so good. The Orlando Magic’s Aaron Gordon has deservedly gotten a boost in reputation after a dunk contest for the ages and his insane high-flying slams are now translating in-game too. Gordon recently put on an acrobatic display against the lowly Philadelphia 76ers with one minor mishap – his Nike Hyperrev 2016s fell apart as a result. Perhaps the model couldn’t withstand the altitude. Check out a few photos of his destroyed kicks and watch a video of the dunk that could’ve done it below.

Nike Evolves Skate Shoe Design With Eric Kostons New Signature Shoe

After nearly three years in rotation, the Nike SB Koston 2 is ready to take a back seat as the legendary Frostman is getting a new signature shoe from Nike this March. This time around, the Swoosh brings forth proven design elements and combines it with newly discovered cues – namely the sock-like ankle cuff that’s been prevalent in its football boots as of late. Dubbed the Nike SB Hyperfeel Koston 3, this new signature shoe promises the superior fit boasted by the Nike Flyknit Hyperfeel that debuted in 2014 and the unparalleled performance that riders have enjoyed over the last few years. No word on if a take-down version (aka a version without the cuff) will be available, but Nike SB has plans on launching the shoe this March after it hosts a shindig this weekend in Los Angeles. Get a full detailed photo gallery ahead and let us know if you think this is the most innovative skate shoe of all-time.

An Understated Nike Internationalist

Nike Internationalist Nike Internationalist 1 Nike Internationalist 2

To follow-up on a recent color block iteration, the iconic Nike Internationalist is treated in Obsidian for its latest finish to start off the early portion of 2016.

The popular retro runner essentially flaunts a premium build with tonal suede covering the majority of its upper. Furthermore, matching leather accents are provided by the signature Swoosh branding and heel tab, while the subdued tone is continued on its tpu heel counter, laces and tongue tab.

Additionally reinforced with stitching throughout, the low-top is offset by a clean white midsole unit and grey outsole to create an aesthetically pleasing colorway. Find a pair at select Nike stores overseas now.

Author’s Take

I’m a sucker for runners. I’m pretty biased towards this model as well. In this colorway, it’s certainly versatile and stylish.

Alongside the recent Pure Platinum iteration, the Nike Air Max 90 Ultra Moire is treated in another tonal finish, this time flaunting an understated colorway of navy.

Unlike its traditional profile, this modernized silhouette is defined by its one-piece seamless upper, which bears perforations throughout to allow maximum breathability, as well as weighing much less to ensure a comfortable fit.

Tonal synthetics are applied on the model to further signify its notable elements such as the Swoosh branding, mudguard and heel badge. All resting atop a matching sole unit with the visible air bubble component in the heel, the sneaker is rounded out with tonal laces and branding on the tongue.

You can purchase this latest variation of the silhouette at select Nike retailers overseas now.

I’ll always be an advocate for this model. Style, performance and functionality into one design. This colorway is perfect for everyday wear.

Supreme x Nike Air Max 98

Release Date: Spring 2016
Price: ?

Supreme is wasting no time in 2016 as far as collaborations go and it seems that we’ve gotten our first look at their next project with Nike.

After collaborating with Jordan Brand last year and releasing three different colorways of the Air Jordan 5, in 2016 they will be linking up with familiar partner Nike on a silhouette that we don’t see very often, the Nike Air Max 98. There is rumors that there will be a total of four colorways set to release later this year possibly beginning in the Spring. Two have already surfaced, one is done in grey and the other in black while both feature snakeskin detailing on the toe, mudguard and ankle.

Andres Carrillo, News: I’m not a fan of either Supreme or the Air Max 98 silhouette so this collaboration doesn’t capture my attention at all. This will be an easy pass for me.

Gold Highlights The Nike Cortez

Nike Cortez Nike Cortez 1 Nike Cortez 2

The iconic Nike Cortez receives another standout finish this season in a simple colorway of white with golden details.

Listed as a women’s iteration, this particular pair is comprised of premium leather across the majority of its upper. The pristine tone is essentially doused across the component, which flows towards the inner lining, laces, tongue and full-length rubber sole unit.

To offset its heavenly colorway, pops of gold are applied on the signature Swooshes, as well as more branding located on the tongue and heel tab. You can find this quickstrike pair at select Nike accounts overseas now.

Author’s Take

I’m biased towards this style. It’s a true classic overall. This variation is versatile for males as well in my opinion.

The Nike Air Max 90 Essential is presented in a new Phantom finish for this season, following a recent Infrared-inspired colorway.

Draped in a muted palette overall, light beige covers the majority of the runner’s composition, which is comprised of breathable mesh and tonal suede overlays adorning the toe cap, mudguard and side panels. To further complement the colorway, cream-colored accents adorn the laces, Swoosh branding and visible bubble unit on its heel.

All adhered atop a clean white midsole unit and classic gum outsole, more white accents are implemented on the inner lining and leather Swoosh to round out the theme perfectly. You can purchase this pair at select Nike retailers overseas now.

University Red Covers The Nike Air Max BW Ultra

The Nike Air Max BW Ultra is a sneaker that gets overlooked a lot by many people because there’s so many Air Max silhouettes out there that more often than not a few of them are bound to get lost in the shuffle.

Perhaps releasing a bold colorway like this University Red option that you see above will get people to notice. The classic silhouette has been upgraded with modern materials and bold colors that include University Red and Bright Crimson for a look that cannot be ignored.

Look for the Nike Air Max BW Ultra at select Nike retailers beginning next month.

Author’s Take

The Air Max BW Ultra is one of those silhouettes that just doesn’t catch my attention. I prefer other classic Air Max silhouettes like the AM 90 and the AM 1 over this.

The Nike Air Max 90 Ultra Essential Is Looking Right For The Spring

NIKE AIR MAX 90 ESSENTIAL 1 NIKE AIR MAX 90 ESSENTIAL 2 NIKE AIR MAX 90 ESSENTIAL 3

Check out this new colorway placed on the Nike Air Max 90 Ultra Essential. Said to have a little ACG inspiration behind it, the shoe dons a similar color scheme we’re used to seeing on the All Conditions Gear models.

The shoe starts off with a black mesh upper accompanied by the Hyperfuse overlay placed on the mudguard and toecap of the shoe. Adding the ACG vibes to the shoe are the Emerald Green hits placed on the “Air Max” branding, and the Metallic Gold hits found on the lining and parts of the outsole. Racer Blue accents are seen on the eyelets, speckling on the black midsole as well as on the heel of the shoe. Like what you see? Let us know in the comments below.

Author’s Take

I like the shoe’s color makeup. It has some color on it, but it’s not overwhelming at all. t works very well with the black upper. The fact that it’s a Ultra Essential assures me that that it’s also going to be more comfortable than the original version of the AM 90.

The Nike SB Hyperfeel Koston 3 is unlike any Koston SB model we have seen in the past. As hybrid as it gets, this new SB sneaker appears to be inspired by certain Kobe sneakers, a set of football boots while throwing in some running sneaker aesthetics as well.

The upper appears to come in a Hyperfuse construction paired up with the textile heel collar. The unique looking upper is than paired up with a Nike Free-inspired sole to ass some flexibility to the shoe. Two colorways have already been unveiled, the first pair comes in a blue and yellow aesthetic, while the second pair comes in a more subtle white and grey offering. Stay tuned to receive all the details of this upcoming Nike SB release.

Author’s Take

Not sure how people who actually skateboard are going to receive the shoe, but I guess you just have a open mind and realize things, looks and trends are always changing. Personally, I think the looks of the shoe is just okay, what’s more important is finding out how it’s going to perform on the board.

Additional color can be seen on the branding of the tongue, while big “NIKE” lettering can be seen on the heel counter of the shoe. A white sole unit and black inner lining complete the shoe’s appearance. Available at select retailers, let us know if you’re diggin’ this OG look on the Huarache Run Ultra.

Author’s Take

I like the OG colorway being used on the shoe, I just wish there was more of it being used on the upper. Perhaps on the underlays or something along those lines, I thing it would have helped the shoe by giving it some more pop.

The Nike Air Classic BW Premium keeps things at a premium aesthetic by coming dressed in a luxe leather all-black upper. Having already gone over the shoe, today we take another look at them.

The official colorway of the shoe is read as Black/Bright Crimson-Wolf Grey. The upper is dressed in all-black as both nubuck and leather take care of the contruction. Breaking up the tonal look of the base is the white placed on the midsole and the Bright Crimson found on the Air Max unit and outsole. Black lining, laces and Nike branding complete the major features on the shoe. Available now at select retailers, pick up your very own pair today.

Author’s Take

Never really pair any mind to the Nike Air Classic BW, but this Premium version of the shoe definitely caught my eye. I would have liked the shoe a whole lot more if the Crimson hits were removed.
