Because every shoe with a similar colorway to a famous model from the past gets slapped with the same nickname (think “Oreo” or “South Beach”), we’re going to go ahead and call these the “Orca” Trainerendors. Indeed, the hybrid trainer/hiker/casual model from Nike SB receives a stark black and white colorway, looking like a killer whale and sneaker models like the Zoom Kobe 2 in its own “Orca” color scheme. If you aren’t into the whole re-purposing nicknames thing, just consider these a clean and simple new edition of the Trainerendor. You can find pairs arriving now at select shops like Rock City Kicks.

The Summer is almost here which means the best time to whip out our favorite all-white sneakers. Last year the Triple White Nike Air Huarache was one of the most popular all-white sneakers and since many people are still wearing the silhouette we expect to see it again.

If you’re a fan of the pristine colorway of the Air Huarache but hate how dirty it is then here’s an alternative for you. This new colorway of the Nike Air Huaraches still embraces the all-white look for the most part but has been hit with a Wolf grey neoprene bootie and Black heel counter that provides just the right amount of contrast. The rest of the shoe is done in white while the rubber outsole is also done in Wolf Grey.

You can pick up this Summer colorway of the Nike Air Huarache now at select Nike retailers for $110.

I’ve always been hesitant about picking up the all-white Nike Air Huarache because of how dirty it is but this new colorway adds some color in the right places. I may have to pick up a pair for the Summer.

Does the colorway of the Nike Zoom Kobe 4 look familiar to you? If it doesn’t don’t worry because it’s very rare.

This is actually a Livestrong PE colorway of Kobe Bryant’s 4th signature with the Swoosh. White and silver dominate this Kobe 4 with the Livestrong branding being placed on the heel. These just happen to be a size 14 which means that they were designed for Kobe himself. Unfortunately he never actually wore them. But fortunately for you they’re up for grabs right now from Index Portland for a cool $1,500.

It’s been nearly a week since the Cavs have played a game. With plenty of rest, one has to wonder if Cleveland can accomplish another 4-0 sweep of their next opponent – the injured and tired Toronto Raptors or the equally hurt and struggling Miami Heat. Having Kyrie Irving waiting in the wings is definitely helpful, as the Cavs’ star point guard has tortured the Eastern Conference with an array of crossovers and three-pointers en route to some of the best basketball he’s ever played. Nike Basketball’s latest Kyrie 2 colorway references Irving’s ability to bruise the ankles and ego of any defender guarding him with a vibrant and graphic-heavy take on his second signature. Known as the Nike Kyrie 2 “Crossover”, the pair features University Red and Black caution stripes on the midfoot strap, a heel that spells out ‘Kyrie’ in bold black and white block letters, and a clean white base. While you wait for Kyrie and company to take the floor in the Eastern Conference Finals, this pair can hold you over with a release tomorrow, May 14th for $120 USD. Look for your size right now on eBay.
