Summer is still about a month away, but as a sneakerhead you should know that it’s never too early to buy kicks that you plan on wearing for when that hot weather comes.

A sneaker that has been popular for a few months now and is ideal for the hot weather is the Nike Sock Dart. The Slip-On runner has just released in a new Racer Blue colorway that covers the entire upper in the aforementioned hue along with white detailing on the midsole and heel. The signature strap that runs across the midfoot has also been done in blue to keep things tonal. Serving as a finishing touch is blue speckling on the midsole and a black rubber outsole.

I still haven’t picked up a pair of Sock Darts and I definitely wouldn’t mind having this one. Love this shade of blue and the speckling on the midsole is also dope.

Not bad for an on-court sneaker. Not sure how it performs, but aesthetically, it looks clean.

If I had the money to pick up all of the colorways of the Nike Air Huarache that I like then I would definitely add this to my collection. But since I don’t I’ll have to pass on these.

It looks a lot fresher than the OG version. I’m all for added breathability. Not really feeling the tonal look, add some contrast and you have yourself an even better looking shoe.

The latest colorway of the Nike Kobe 11 hit retailers today with the arrival of the Nike Kobe 11 Mark Parker.

This colorway of the Kobe 11 takes inspiration from the relationship between Nike CEO Mark Parker and Kobe Bryant as well as Kobe’s ?The Black Mamba? nickname. Featuring a combination of Black, Racer Blue and White, the Nike Kobe 11 Mark Parker also comes with subtle details reflecting the black mamba snake. From the re-engineered Flyknit pattern and laces to the tongue and shoe underbelly, reptilian details designed by Parker subtly come to life on this new shoe.

If you’d like to pick up a pair you can do so now at select Nike retailers for $200.

Author’s Take

This Mark Parker is my 2nd favorite pair from the Kobe 11 Muse Pack. It?s pretty hard to top the Tinker Hatfield pair, but the combination of black and royal blue on the Flyknit upper does look nice.

The Nike Air Max Plus switches from its usual gradient mesh upper to a whole new look this summer, with this latest version of the cult classic runner in a denim construction. The Air Max Plus from 1998 gets the blues this season, sporting a new blue jean upper with black accents for the TPU piping, mudguard, and midsole. Unfortunately, it looks like this may be yet another Foot Locker Europe and Australia exclusive of the Tuned Air model, but keep an eye out at your local Foot Locker to see if they surface here in the US.

The Nike Zoom Vick III has been one of Nike’s more surprising retros this year given Michael Vick’s tumultuous history. The brand even dropped him after the once-electric quarterback was found guilty on dog-fighting charges only to re-sign him after a stellar season with the Philadelphia Eagles as a part of his redemption tour. After the OG Falcons colorway hit retailers in a wave of nostalgia that had people remembering the glory days of Madden 2004, this clean White/University Blue offering is perfect for the summer months ahead. The UNC-like color combination isn’t rooted anywhere in any of the professional franchises Vick played for over his career but manages to transform the turf trainer into a solid lifestyle offering. Available today via Oneness for $160 USD.

Did you miss out on the Nike Flyknit Roshe Run NM Multicolor when it initially dropped? If the answer, or you simply just want to double up, there may be to pick pick these bad boys up once more.

We just got word the the this vibrant color of the Nike Flyknit Roshe Run NM recently dropped in Europe once more. Although that doesn’t mean that it will for sure drop in the states, we can only cross out fingers and hope this multicolored version of the Flyknit Roshe arrives in the states in the near future. If they drop, are you picking up?

Author’s Take

I never really liked the way Flyknit looked on Roshes. I just wished it looked more like A Racer. Nice to see them back (potentially) but not for me.

The latest Nike shoe to get the woven treatment is none other than the Nike Tennis Classic. Dropping really soon, let’s get a closer look at the Nike Tennis Classic Woven.

With Spring /Summer season in full effect, there’s no better time to wear breathable shoes, and what better way to do that than with a woven upper on your sneakers. Instead of the customary suede we’re used to seeing on the upper, a woven construction takes its place as its spotted on the side panels in nylon/premium leather fashion. The rest of the shoe comes in a tonal leather build done in either Light Grey or Black. Embossed branding and leather tongue tags give the shoe even more of a premium appeal, while the use of an ultra sole assures that the shoe will be lighter and more comfortable than the original Tennis Classic. Both colorways will drop on May 27th, you scooping up a pair?

Author’s Take

The woven look works okay on this model. If I could change one thing about the shoe is that I would have made the woven hits in all leather and not use the nylon construction at all.

Draymond Green and the Golden State Warriors will be fighting for their playoff lives tonight as they face the Oklahoma City Thunder 5 in game 5 of the Western Conference Finals with the Thunder holding a 3-1 lead over the Warriors. With the game taking place in the Bay Area it means that Warriors should have a pretty good chance at winning, or maybe not.

While all of the focus on this series’ kicks has been on Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, today we highlight a special shoe that Draymond Green will be wearing. Pictures above is a white and gold colorway of the Nike Zoom HyperRev 2016 that will be worn by Draymond in tonight’s game. Do you think these white and gold HyperRevs will snap Green out of his recent funk?

Author’s Take

Super clean colorway of the Nike Zoom HyperRev 2016 but I don’t get why Nike waited this long to give it to Draymond. It might be the last sneaker he wears this season.

So what’s the bright side for the Toronto Raptors after they got hammered in Cleveland yet again and are now in a 3-2 hole facing elimination on Friday? DeMar DeRozan wore the Nike Kobe 1 Black Mamba during the loss. Oh wait, I meant that was a bright side for me because I love Kobe 1s and that Black Mamba is hot fire. Sorry, Raptor fans (and Drake).

Despite the blowout win, it’s totally possible this is just a series where the home teams hold serve which means the Raptors will take Game 6 in Toronto and return to Cleveland for a inevitable elimination in Game 7.

The Cavs Big 3 of LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and J.R. Smith Kevin Love were dominant in Game 5, with LeBron leading the way in a non-Elite version of the Nike LeBron 13, while Kyrie wore another Nike Kyrie 2 PE and Love prevailed in a Nike Hyperdunk 2015.
