Does winning really cure everything? When it comes to the Nike Lebron 13, we’re about to find out. LeBron James just won his 3rd NBA Championship. Is that enough reason for people to start paying more attention to his current signature shoe?

For the most part, the LeBron 13 did not meet expectations. The shoes sat and eventually went on clearance. Could the model gain some momentum now that it belongs to an NBA Champion? The latest Nike LeBron model to drop is the Nike LeBron 13 Low coming in the Black and Reflective Silver colorway. Pretty straightforward color scheme as the all-Black aesthetic takes care of both the upper and sole unit with only the reflective Silver providing any means of contrast. Perhaps LeBron James winning another NBA Championship is just what his signature line needed to do better numbers. If you’re interested in copping a pair, they’re now available at select retailers for $150.

Using the Wimbledon tournament as inspiration, Nike has created a couple of special colorways of the Nike Tennis Classic Ultra for both men and women.

First we take a look at the men’s pair which features a gold leather upper with the new and improved Ultra sole that makes the shoe lighter than before as well as more comfortable. White detailing has been placed on the inner liner, laces, and sole. Finishing details include a pineapple graphic on the tongue tag, which represents the fruit at the top of the Wimbledon trophy, and a perforated Swoosh.

I think these would have looked better if Nike would have somehow found a way to make them the new Flyknit version of the Tennis Classic. Decent colorway but I’m not too big on all gold kicks.

Since LeBron James wore the new Nike LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 throughout most of the NBA Finals (including game 7), the shoe will be receiving lots of attention from sneakerheads everywhere even though it’s not one of his official LeBron signature silhouettes.

Just as fast as the Championship option sold out on NIKEiD today, you can also expect other colorways to grasp many people’s attention. One of those colorways that is beginning to release and is getting lots of attention is the Black/Gum option that you see above. This LeBron Zoom Soldier 10 features a combination of Black and Cool Grey on the upper with a gum outsole which serves as a great contrast.

This colorway is beginning to arrive at select retailers now but is selling out fast. Keep your eyes peeled for more retailers to to get these Black/Gum Zoom Soldier 10s.

Aside from the championship colorway that features a gold Swoosh, this one of the better pairs in my opinion. That black upper with the gum bottom is such a clean combination.

Nike will be bringing releasing a handful of patriotic-themed sneakers (new and old) this Summer in celebration of the 2016 Summer Olympics.

First previewed last month, today we get our first official look at the Nike Air More Uptempo in the Olympic colorway. This colorway of Scottie Pippen’s signature shoe features a Midnight Navy upper with “AIR” written in White on the side panels. Additional White accents have been added on the toe, heel, midsole and tongue. Sport Red Nike checks have been added on the tongue and outsole to complete the USA theme. Last but not least we see a gold “8” placed on the heel which was Scottie Pippen’s Olympic jersey number.

After letting you know just last week that the Nike LunarEpic Flyknit will be releasing in low-top form for the Summer, those of you that were patiently will have to wait no more.

Two separate colorways of the all-new Nike LunarEpic Flyknit Low have began to surface at select retailers. One pair comes in black/white and the other in blue/black/white. The shoe features a lower and more traditional ankle cut along with a Flyknit upper and a Lunarlon midsole for premium comfortability.

Do you plan on picking up a pair to rock this Summer?

Author’s Take

I like to low-top version much better than the original ankle-length version. I don’t really like these colorways though so I’ll probably just wait until I see something that I do like.

Kevin Durant’s 9th signature Nike shoe recently released to the public. After a lackluster KD 8 drop, Nike and KD both hope that the KD 9 is better received. The first colorway to release is the Nike KD 9 Pre-Heat. Let’s get a closer look.

The shoe’s most notable features include the Flyknit upper accompanying the bootie construction sitting on top of the full-length visible Zoom Air unit.

The Nike Air Force 1 Ultra Flyknit Low USA appears to be a dope looking sneaker to wear during the 4th of July. Only problem is that Nike has yet to release it and they still haven’t provided a release date either. While we patiently wait for these to drop, let’s get a closer look at the upcoming release.

Coming in a bold and vibrant upper, the base of the shoe consists of a Flyknit upper dones in Gym Red and Deep Royal. Th Deep Royal extends to the leather heel tab and the eyestay, tongue and lining. A burst of White is placed on the carved-out sole unit, and the iridescent Nike Swoosh gives the shoe some additional pop. Would you rock these during Independence Day? Stay tuned to find out when these drop stateside.

I like the theme, but do you know what would have looked better? A Flyknit upper that uses all three American flag colors. I’d definitely be all over those.

Any time I see a black and yellow sneaker it immediately captures my attention. I?m not a fan of the Foamposite silhouette but I have to admit that this is a clean colorway. There?s no way I would spend $230 on this shoe though.

LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers were crowned NBA Champions over the weekend. LeBron James is a big part of Nike, so in essence, Nike should also be winning, right? That’s what Nike’s hoping it translates to as financial experts are predicting a positive impact in Nike stock.

CNBC‘s Jim Cramer is stating that LeBron winning in the NBA Finals, as well as the brand being well represented in the upcoming Olympics in Rio could have a big impact in lifting Nike stock. Cramer states – “This stock has been really beaten down, basketball sneakers have been in the doldrums?maybe this one wakes up.”

As of right now, Nike’s stock was up 2% on Monday, while analysts are expecting the brand to exceed expectations during the quarterly earnings report next week. All this is good news since Nike stock dropped 15% since December. Do you think LeBron will help increase Nike stock in the near future?

NBA Champion and reigning NBA Finals MVP LeBron James has a lot to celebrate. Not only did he finally accomplish what he set out to do by winning a championship for his hometown, a city with a 52-year championship drought, but he did so in historic fashion. Over the 7 games, LeBron led all players in nearly every statistical category en route to a unanimous Finals MVP selection. He did so wearing his brand new Nike LeBron Soldier 10, a shoe that Nike debuted in a surprise effort during Game 3. For the most part, LeBron stuck to wearing rather subdued black on black pairs, but today we’re getting a look at what could be the first general retail release. This classic Bred combination sees a black mesh base bolstered with ventilations throughout while the ankle support and top strap get a vibrant Team Red treatment to match the outline of the heel Swoosh branding. It’s more Miami than Cleveland, but what do you think of the pair? Grab your size today from shops like Jimmy Jazz for $130 USD.

The Nike Sock Dart, much like the Nike Presto, has showcased that much of the technology that went into its early 2000s creation is as relevant as ever today. For the Sock Dart, the breathable upper served as a precursor to Flyknit technology while the outsole added a touch of natural motion even in the pre-Free days. Today we get a look at a lifestyle-inclined women’s exclusive colorway with a deep Night Maroon shade. The pair transforms the usually transparent midfoot strap through a splash of a matching shade and Metallic Gold touches on the strap to match the classic Gum outsole. What results is a Sock Dart perfect for any occasion. Check out more photos below and know that you can grab this pair today from retailers like Oneness for $130 USD.

Comprised of premium leather, the stealthy hue is prominent throughout its upper, tongue, laces, inner lining and heel tab.
