Last week Nike took the time to officially introduce the all-new NikeCourt Tennis Classic Ultra Flyknit. As the name suggests, this revamped version of the Tennis Classic now comes equipped with a Flyknit upper and Ultra tooling on the sole.

This week we’ve been treated to new colorways such as the Wolf Grey pair that you see up above. As you can see, Wolf Grey Flyknit dominates the upper on this new Tennis Classic while contrasting hits of White land on the Flywire, tongue, laces, Ultra sole, and the leather heel and Swoosh.

Not much else to this clean and simple colorway of the Tennis Classic Ultra Flyknit. Cop your pair now from select retailers for $150.

One of the better colorways of the Tennis Classic Ultra Flyknit that I’ve seen but still doesn’t make me want to buy a pair. I’ll wait for a color with some more “pop.”

It seems like more and more retailers are finally getting their hands on the Nike Air More Uptempo White / Varsity Red. It was even noted that Nike’s online store would be carrying them this morning. I just went to their site, and unless they sold out in minutes they are nowhere to be found. While we wait for a wider release, there are still boutiques/shops out there that have pairs.

The white leather sneaker is sharply contrasted by the Varsity Red placed on the Nike and ‘AIR’ branding placed on the side panels of the shoe. Although only two colors are used, there is no doubt that the model is eye-catching. Let us know, have you been able to get a pair? Ar they as dope in person as they are on images? Let us know what you think about the shoe in the comments below.

I’ve never been much of a fan of the shoe, but this colorway really caught my attention. The White and Varsity Red work so well together. It’s a really nice looking shoe.

The flashback to 1996 continues as Nike is ready to drop a retro colorway of Ken Griffey Jr’s first signature, the Air Griffey Max 1. These popular Griffeys first released back in 1996 and made its first-ever return back in 2009. With 2016 serving as the 20th Anniversary celebration of this silhouette, Nike has already brought back the “Emerald” pair and plans to unearth this new concoction that features royal blue, black, and volt. These did in fact release a few years back, but here’s your chance to cop ’em again. Stay tuned for the official release on May 24th.

LeBron James has yet to lose a playoff game this post-season and with the Cavaliers firing on all cylinders, what are the chances that they drop Game 2 at “The Q” tonight? LeBron is shooting for more than his 6th straight NBA Finals appearance, as he’s aiming to finally grab that elusive Cleveland world championship that’s avoided the city for over 50 years. The Nike LeBron 13 Elite has been holding King James down for the better part of the past month and a half, as Nike Basketball has approached this year’s Elite tooling with a different thought process than year’s past. The overall construction is simplified to the bare-bone essentials with a lightweight yet supportive Kurim cage. The durable synthetic adds lockdown support while a carbon fiber shank adds stability while shedding extra weight to help LeBron maintain his explosiveness well into the 100 game mark this season. This Black/Reflect Silver pair could just be the last pair to release at retail unless LeBron grabs that championship and we get some celebratory ‘The Land’ pairs after the accomplishment. Do you think it will happen? In the meantime, check out the latest LeBron 13 Elite colorway and pick up this pair on May 26th for $275 USD.

If the Swoosh would have been made of suede and done in Team Red this Tennis Classic would have looked so much better. I like that this colorway has Team Red on it, there’s just not enough of it.

Flaunting a predominantly black hue which covers the revamped upper, the model is also enhanced with an enlarged carbon fiber plate and a snug inner bootie to provide sufficient lockdown and stability. Furthermore, a durable Kurim cage and the two additional Zoom Air units are implemented on the sole for more cushioning.

All resting atop a clean icy outsole, the model is finished off with red accents on the inner lining, alongside speckles of silver on the midsole, large Swoosh branding along its forefoot and LBJ’s signature across the tongue.

Skylar Diggins is one of the WNBA’s most recognizable stars and is poised for another season where she fills the stat sheet after fully recovering from a torn-ACL this past offseason. The freshly minted Dallas Wings franchise is as grateful to have her on the roster as Nike Basketball is, as the brand recently showcased their gratitude through a new Nike Hyperrev 2016 PE. The standout orange aesthetic sees 3M reflective piping throughout as well as a marbled outsole unit while the inner straps pay homage to her mother with the catchphrase “you do you” and her mom’s nickname for Skylar – “Shug”. Skylar’s Hyperrev will see a limited retail release on May 7th. Will you be grabbing a pair? Catch more detailed shots below.

This latest take on the Nike Kobe 11 consists as the second colorway of three, from the standout ?Muse? pack, which connects with the Swoosh?s iconic design pioneers.

To follow-up on the first Brave Blue aka Eric Avar iteration, this pair is highlighted by legendary designer, Tinker Hatfield. Essentially defined by Bryant?s favorite sneaker — the Air Jordan 3 — the model inherits the classic red and black color scheme, while receiving additional enhancements with a red embroidery on the heel and tongue, perforations on the lower tongue for breathability and a sharkskin-inspired heel counter as a tribute to Bryant?s fearlessness and appreciation for the creature.

Other notable details include the sheath logo gracing its tongue tabs, while the heel tabs incorporate the classic Swoosh branding and four stripes. Furthermore, a signature of what seems to be both Bryant and Hatfield are applied behind the tongue for additional commemorative value.

Finished off with a clean white sole unit, the sneaker will retail for $200. You can purchase a pair at select Nike stockists worldwide on starting, Thursday, May 5th.

The Nike Free RN Flyknit is changing the way Nike Running does Free. The flexible technology now comes equipped with a new triangular traction pattern that expands while you run to increase your multi-directional functionality so that you can turn and cut as naturally as ever. While the midsole/outsole unit underwent a complete transformation for this model, the seamless Flyknit upper is anything but standard as well. The sock-like fit provides breathability and lockdown comfort and now comes with this interesting use of Multi-Color on the medial side to contrast a black and white base. Be on the lookout for Nike Running’s latest creation to hit select retailers like Solebox tomorrow, May 5th for $130 USD.

The Nike Tennis Classic Nai-Ke is the latest model to show China some love by coming with unique character branding on them. For the most part, the iconic tennis shoe remains true to form as a white leather upper is accompanied by the perforations on the side panels that act as the Nike Swoosh branding. Debossed Nike branding is placed on the tongue, while the main attraction appears on the heel tab, where you will find a Maroon heel with white Nai-Ke stitching on it. Lastly, an all-white sole unit completes the tonal look of the shoe. Thoughts on the shoe? Stay tuned to find out when these get a release date.

I passed on the Air Force 1 Nai-Ke when they dropped, and I’m a far bigger fan of that model than this one. I think it’s safe to say that I’m dropping on these too.
