Following up the deluxe version of the Nike Air Max 1 with a premium deconstructed suede upper known as the Air Max 1 Royal, Nike Sportswear is now giving the same treatment to the Air Safari. The classic model originally released in 1987, the same year as the Air Max 1, seems to be a fitting choice for the next silhouette to receive the luxurious construction, and as you can see here by an early preview, the Safari Royal is definitely looking nice. Presented in tonal colorways with the safari pattern stamped on, the Safari Royal also features Vachetta Tan leather detailing on the midsole and a solid white outsole just like its Air Max 1 counterpart. Preview black and orange colorways of the Safari Royal here today, and stay tuned to Sneaker News for further release details.

The Nike KD 9 in Black White is scheduled to make its official debut this month, as more images of the new silhouette are introduced as we creep closer to its release date.

While the Pre-Heat colorway was recently seen on Kevin Durant during the 2016 NBA Playoffs, this pair is essentially defined by its traditional color scheme. A mixture of black and white shades are prominent on the flyknit upper, while tonal black graces the rear section and inner lining for a nice touch of contrast.

Adhered atop a matching full length Zoom sole unit and laces, large white Swooshes on the sides and branding on the heel finishes off the design.

Retailing for $150, you can purchase this pair at select Nike retailers nationwide on Saturday, June 18th.

I like the design. I’m more biased towards this colorway though since it’s appealing and versatile. I only dislike the slightly higher cut on the collar though.

Nike recently released another video installment of their ongoing Inner Strength series featuring Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku. But hidden in the workout regiment was a brand new training model – the upcoming Nike Train Ultrafast Flyknit. The Swoosh has been aggressive about pushing all-purpose trainers, and here the Ultrafast showcases that capability thanks to a chainlink Flyknit construction that offers up responsive lockdown comfort atop a low-profile midsole. They even hint at what the brand is calling a “responsive propulsion plate underfoot” to continue the theme of stability and traction on top of multiple playing surfaces. The previews of the upcoming model are brief, but check them out below and stay tuned for a release later this summer.
