No, it’s not the Nike LeBron 14. What you see above is a brand new Nike LeBron model that will go by the name of the Nike LeBron Zoom Witness. This is set to be the latest sneaker model set to be a part of the Nike LeBron line.

This first look of the shoe shows that this is a simplified sneaker, in other words, it doesn’t appear to use many of the tech we’re used to seeing on the LeBron signature sneakers. The most notable feature is how the rear portion of the White midsole expands all the way to the ankle region of the shoe. The provided image makes it hard to tell what material is used to construct the shoe, but keep it locked as more info on the shoe is sure to release in the near future? Initial thoughts? Let us know in the comments below.

My initial thoughts is that I don’t really like it. The midsole build /Nike Swoosh placement kind of reminds me of a Kyrie 2 knockoff, haha.

After creating his own Nike Air Rift and Air Max 90, Brazilian designer Pedro Lourenco is now teaming up with NikeLab once again for one of the most unique versions of the Roshe yet. The modern classic casual silhouette has seen no shortage of makeovers since its debut in 2013, but this is definitely one of the most intriguing yet thanks to the juxtaposition of white patent leather for the quarter panels with heat sensitive material that changes from black to white across the rest of the upper. Unfortunately for the guys, this Roshe will be sold in women’s sizing only. For all those that can fit a pair, the Pedro Lourenco x NikeLab Roshe NM is available beginning today at select global retailers.

Multicolor kicks are not a brand new concept. We’ve been seeing sneakers that look like something out of a fever dream since the 90s, but they always felt like they were ahead of their time. It wasn’t until Nike introduced the concept in the Flyknit Racer where everything changed. Using patterns and colors that were simply not possible (or just wouldn’t look good) on a regular leather or sythentics-based shoe, the Flyknit material allowed for each shoe to look wholly unique; no two pairs were exactly alike. The 2013 debut iteration of the Multicolor Nike Flyknit Racer was an instant classic and has spawned a pair of sequels since that sneakerheads have thirsted over.

Meanwhile, over at the three stripes, adidas has only recently started to break out of their monochromatic shell when it comes to Ultra Boost colorways. Not that they’ve had a reason to go multicolor, however, because everybody loves the utilitarian look of Ultra Boosts and the versatility of their colorways. But for those who see Primeknit as counter programming to Nike’s Flyknit, we knew then adidas pulled that ace out of their sleeve it would be huge. But they’ve been very conservative in breaking out the Multicolor look, not completely engulfing the shoe in a total kaleidoscopic mess, but rather in bunches.

Two brands. Two totally different approaches to one very popular style. So who takes the crown? Let’s find out in this Multicolor edition of Clash of the Kicks.

Kobe Bryant’s recent trip to Europe reflects the premium taste that the Black Mamba has. Above the basketball clinics he led at The Palalido, a famous sports hall in the city of Milan, Kobe visited the Ferrari HQ, the original office of brand creator Enzo, and hit the track with the supercar himself. To commemorate this awesome trip to the country he once called home, Nike is dropping a Kobe 11 inspired by the Italian flag. You’ll see hints of green and red atop a white upper, with a solid gum sole adding to that lifestyle effect. Get another on-foot shot ahead and expect these on August 31st.

Nike Basketball surprised plenty of fans with the introduction of the Nike LeBron Soldier 10 during the NBA Finals.

In addition to the classic neon pair, the new Nike Air Max 95 Ultra SE will be introduced in another popular colorway this season, consisting of gym red/black.

Unlike the runner’s traditional leather/suede makeup, this particular iteration is composed of foam and mesh across its seamless upper to promote a more lightweight and comfortable profile. the sneaker is also punctured with perforations along its eye stays to enable sufficient ventilation as well. Additionally, an exposed flywire system in contrasting black evokes a deconstructed vibe for more modern appeal.

Finished off with a full-length black sole unit, you can find this standout pair at select Nike retailers starting August 8th.

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

The Nike Air Max 1 Ultra Flyknit has released in a bevy of colorways today, and one of the more notable standouts consists of this cargo khaki edition.

As suggested, the iconic runner’s profile has been reworked with an intricately knitted upper to enhance sufficient ventilation, as well as providing a lighter feel. The defining tone is prominent along its synthetic mudguard, Swooshes, laces, side panels and collar section, while the knitted portion of its heel and toe box blend orange-colored threading to pronounce its understated build.

All adhered atop a clean white full-length sole unit, you can find this pair at select Nike retailers worldwide now.

I’m biased towards this silhouette and I like it even more with the revamped construction. This colorway is pretty appealing as well.

Previously featured a white/grey colorway, the Nike Air Max Zero is introduced in another variation, as it sports the traditional palette of black and white this season.

Composed of breathable mesh and fused synthetics across its entire upper, the component is essentially treated in the stealthy hue, while it rests atop a clean white midsole unit. Other notable details include white accents on the branded Tinker Hatfield signature tongues and the iconic visible air bubble unit in the heel offering enhanced cushioning.

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

You can never go wrong with this colorway. The model is a classic design as well. It’s an appealing and versatile option overall.

Tinker Hatfield’s Nike Air Max Zero finally came to fruition after a multi-decade run of being just an early sketch during visible air’s earliest days. Nike Sportswear then brilliantly created the model with some modern amenities to help celebrate the freshly minted Air Max Day, but since then we’ve seen the release slate taper off for the Air Max Zero. While NIKEiD customization is available, the AM0’s release slate is still random at best, with release dates hard to pin down. Today we have some good news though, as a simple Black and White colorway will be heading to store shelves in the near future. The minimalist selection highlights the simplicity of the design with an all black mesh and fuse upper contrasted by a smooth white midsole unit. The only other white found on the pair is Tinker Hatfield’s signature on the tongue. Check out more detailed photos below and we’ll keep you updated on a release date regarding this pair in the coming weeks here on Sneaker News.

There’s a new colorway of the Nike Air Huarache that just released which may be a must-cop for fans of the silhouette.

Nike has decided to add a variety of colors on this new Huarache which starts off with Midnight Navy on the suede and neoprene paneling on the upper. Next we have Ale Brown placed on the translucent heel counter which adds a nice pop to the shoe. The rest of the upper is done in Sail along with the midsole. A Midnight Navy rubber outsole wraps things up on this premium Nike Air Huarache that can be purchased at select Nike retailers now for $120.

Any fans of the Huarache plan on scooping up a pair?

Super clean colorway. I like the combination of Midnight Navy and Ale Brown on the heel. I’d love to check these out in person.

The Nike Sock Dart has been one of Nike Sportswear’s most sought after retros since returning to retailers a few seasons ago. First released in 2004, the woven sock-like upper served as a precursor to the Flyknit wave seen throughout NSW’s catalog today. We’ve seen plenty of updated colorways for summer 2016 including the new SE tooling featuring a colored midsole strap. This women’s exclusive is one of the cleanest pairs we’ve seen yet, as a Light Bone and White get together on the upper to work in perfect harmony with a classic gum outsole. Check out more detailed photos below and grab your size today at Renarts for $130 USD.

A new colorway of the Nike Air Presto just hit retailers and its unlike anything we’ve seen before.

With the center of attention around the Presto focusing on the use of Flyknit, this new pair takes a different route and covers the shoe with a new woven material. This colorway comes predominantly in Wolf Grey with White accents throughout and a Blakc rubber outsole. If you would like to cop a pair for yourself you can do so now directly from nike.com for a retail price of $130.

Not sure how I feel about that new woven upper. I like the look of it but I wonder if it’s comfortable on your feet.

Ever since the Nike Air Max Zero made its debut last year, none of the colorways that have dropped have come in a tonal fashion, until now. What you see above is not one, but two tonal iterations of “the one before the one”.

The Nike Air Max Zero rocks the all-Black and all-White look for its latest drop. The White pair comes with a White Air Max sole unit, while the Black pair comes with a Dark Grey Air Max sole unit that helps provide minimal contrast. Thoughts on these monochromatic options? If you like what you see, it is being said that both pairs will be releasing within the next few weeks. Let us know which pair you’re looking forward to the most.

I’m a fan of the model, but I don’t think I’d get any of these two pairs. I need more colors on my Air Maxes.

LeBron James and his signature sneakers are following in the footsteps of Kevin Durant when it comes to The King’s next signature shoe, the LeBron 14.

Earlier this year Nike announced that the Nike KD 9 would be retailing for $150 which is $30 less than the $180 retail price of the KD 8. Now LeBron will be doing something similar as its being heavily rumored that the Nike LeBron 14 will retail for $175. That’s $25 less than the current retail price of $200 that the LeBron 13 goes for.

Do you think that $25 is enough of a price decrease or should Nike go even lower? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments below.

Author’s Take

Great idea by Nike if this is true. I always thought that $200 for a pair of shoes that almost always went on sale in every colorway is just too much. I actually think that $150 would be much better, but that probably won’t happen.

Last week we saw the release of the Nike Air More Uptempo in the OG Olympic colorway that had many people running to their local malls to pick themselves up a pair. If you’re looking for a lifestyle take on the classic hooping sneaker then look no further than this White Gum colorway.

This version of the Air More Uptempo features an all-white leather upper with perforations throughout. Leather AIR overlays done in white keep things original while a translucent 360-visible air unit is there for comfort. Finishing things off and providing the lifestyle appeal is the new gum outsole.

You can purchase a pair now at select Nike retailers for a price of $160. This is definitely a dope sneaker to rock for the Summer. Will you cop?

Author’s Take

I like it. I was already a fan of the Olympic colorway, but this white gum pair is almost just as clean. I wish a few more gum accents were added somewhere on the upper to make the shoe pop a little more.
