Earlier today we saw the release of the newest Nike Foamposite as a bright and vibrant Optic Yellow hue covered the majority of this retro Nike Basketball sneaker.

Believed to be inspired (not really) by the Wu-Tang Clan due to the choice of colors used on the shoe, the yellow upper on this Nike Air Foamposite One is beautifully contrasted by Black on the tongue, laces, eyestay, ankle, inner liner, heel and the outsole.

You can pick up a pair now from select Nike retailers for $230.

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.

Officially “Optic Yellow” but picking up the nickname “Wu-Tang” because of their obvious similarity to the Wu’s classic yellow and black color scheme, the latest Nike Air Foamposite One hits retailers tomorrow. The vibrant yellow shell with black accents and a solid black sole definitely should have you thinking of the Killa Beez if you know anything about (real) hip-hop, and we’re guessing that this being one of the most notable Foam colorways in a while will ensure a pretty quick sell out when they hit the shelves. Protect ya neck and pick up a pair at select Nike Sportswear retailers like Heist tomorrow.

Nike Basketball continues to look at the past with its Kobe lineup, as the latest Kobe 11 release harkens back to one of the more memorable colorways to launch during the Black Mamba’s prime years. Known as the Nike Kobe 11 “3D”, this optical illusion pairs Total Crimson and Chlorine Blue speckles to 3D effect just as the Kobe 6 back in 2011 did. The outsole adds a clean icy aesthetic to the model while alternating heel colors continue the motif of 3D glasses you’d get at the cinema. This Nike Kobe 11 will arrive at retailers on August 11th for $160, showcasing that the Kobe doesn’t always need Flyknit to still be a premium affair. What do you think of the look? Check out more photos below and stay tuned for more release dates right here on Sneaker News.

LeBron has unfortunately opted out of playing in this summer’s Rio Olympics, but can you blame him? After 6 straight NBA Finals appearances and a total of over two and a half full seasons worth of playoff minutes logged over his career, The King is making the wise decision to save his body for another championship run next season. That doesn’t mean that Nike Basketball wasn’t prepared just in case LeBron decided to join Coach K and company, as the freshly minted Nike LeBron Soldier 10 will release in a USA-centric colorway in the near future. The move to have the latest Soldier installment ditch a lacing system completely can be seen in the form-fitting KD 9, which actually features laces, but doesn’t quite need them. Check out a detailed collection of images for the latest LeBron Soldier 10 colorway after the break and stay tuned for a release date right here on Sneaker News.
