Dont Forget That The Nike Kyrie 2 Red Velvet Releases Tomorrow
The newest colorway of the Nike Kyrie 2 will be arriving at Nike retailers tomorrow and it takes the tonal approach.
Dressed in Team Red from head to toe, the Nike Kyrie 2 Red Velvet draws inspiration from Kyrie Irving’s favorite flavor of cake. In addition to the Team Red tonal look we see minimal hits of Black and Pure Platinum that are barely even noticeable throughout the shoe. The Kyrie logo on the tongue, the #2 on the heel and the Nike Swoosh branding are all reflective so they shine when hit by the light.
Retailing for $120, do you plan on picking up this Team Red colorway of the Nike Kyrie 2 tomorrow?

Author’s Take
I didn’t think that a tonal colorway of the Kyrie 2 would look this good but to my surprise it does. I would have liked to see a little more contrast on the upper though, maybe more black.

We Can Now Add The Nike Air Max BW To The List Of 2016 Olympic Releases
The Olympic vibes have been strong lately when it comes to Nike. We already expect the Nike Air Force 180 Olympic and the Nike Air More Uptempo Olympic to release later this Summer in addition to a couple of other Nike Olympic releases.
We can now add another classic silhouette to the group with the Nike Air Max BW. The retro runner that released in 1991 will be returning in the original Olympic colorway that made its debut back in 1996 Olympic games in Atlanta. This classic colorway of the Air Max BW features a combination of black, navy, red, white and gold to complete the USA/Olympic theme. Additional details include a USA patch on the tongue and a USA Nike flag on the heel.
Scheduled to release on July 7th, make sure you stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for further updates.

The Nike Air Penny 2 Lilac Is Already Arriving At Select Retailers
We were recently hit with the news that the white Orlando Magic-inspired colorway of the Nike Air Penny 2 may be releasing later this year.
But before we get too ahead of ourselves let’s focus on a new colorway that is beginning to hit retailers right now. This Air Penny 2 i covered in a combination of white and lilac making it a women’s exclusive colorway since it’s also available only in GS sizes. Select retailers are already selling this colorway, so if you’re looking to cop a pair you may wanna hit up your local Nike stockists for availability.
Does anyone wish that this colorway also released in men’s sizes or are you fine with it being a GS only release?

Author’s Take
I only like a couple of colorways of the Nike Air Penny 2 and this is definitely not one of them. I wonder how the ladies feel about this pair?

Find Out How Many Pairs Of Snekaers Nike Co-Founder And Chairman Phil Knight Owns
In October of 2015 we learned that Nike Chairman Phil Knight would be releasing his memoir Shoe Dog: A Memoir By The Creator Of Nike. Today the book officially hit shelves, so if you’re interested in buying a copy you can do so now.
Knight recently appeared on CNBC’s Squawk on the Street to talk about his memoir and he revealed something that surprised us all. Being the Chairman and co-founder of one of the biggest brands in the world and the largest sneaker brand in the world, you would assume that he has thousands of shoes in his collection. Wrong. While being interviewed on the show Knight revealed that he actually has a very small amount of sneakers.
“I have about 50 pairs of sneakers in my closet,” Knight said in an interview on CNBC. “I have a small closet.”
Say what?!?! Who would have thought. I guess we really do learn something new every day. His reasoning for not owning thousands of pairs? He says he only has two feet. Makes sense, I guess.
So not only does Phil Knight own only 50 pairs of sneakers, but he also plans on giving away his $25 billion fortune to charity??

Cream Uppers And A Gum Outsole On This Nike Air Huarache
The Nike Air Huarache is looking to have another huge year as the retro silhouette had a highly successful 2015.
With colorways like this there’s no doubt that it will be successful once again. This latest colorway of the Tinker Hatfield-designed silhouette features a tan/cream upper done in neoprene. The most unique feature on this pair is the textured pattern that can be seen on the overlays on the side panels and on the toe. Capping things off is a white midsole, gold detailing on the heel counter, and a gum outsole for a clean Summer look.
As is the case with the nicer colorways, this is women’s only release at the moment. Arriving at stateside retailers in the near future, what are your thoughts on this colorway of the Nike Air Huarache?
via: Size?
Author’s Take
Another cope colorway. The gold heel counter and the gum outsole provide the perfect pop to this Huarache. I don’t care that this is a women’s colorway, I may be picking up a pair for myself.

The Nike Air Max 90 Woven Has A Premium Look And A Premium Price
The newest features that has landed on the iconic Nike Air Max 90 silhouette is woven detailing.
Outfitted with a new premium look, this latest Air Max 90 comes dressed in a full black leather upper and intricate woven detailing that can be seen on the mudguard. The tongue and inner liner have also been done in leather to continue the premium theme on the shoe. The only hit of contrast comes courtesy of the white midsole unit. One piece of bad news for those of you that were maybe looking to cop is that these won’t come cheap. The retail price for this woven Air Max 90 has been set at $250. Yeah, that sounds pretty steep to me too.
Scheduled to release at select Nike retailers on April 29th, are these worth the price to you?
via: Nike
Author’s Take
I’m a fan of the new woven look, but that $250 price tag is just too high. I think $150 would have been a lot more reasonable. Unless I can get them for that price, these are an easy pass for me.

Check Out This Dope Nike Roshe Run Lunarlon Custom!
As I was wasting my precious time scrolling through the “Images I Might Like” section on Instagram, to my surprise, I actually came across something I did like.
I noticed a very unique looking Nike Roshe Run on the page of fellow user adamchang23. I clicked on the picture and quickly came to find out that this Roshe Run was actually a custom job created by the user himself. What made metake notice of the Roshe Run? Well, he managed to give it a brand new look by giving it a sole swap. He removed the original sole of the Roshe and replaced it with a Lunarlon sole unit. Not only does the shoe look and feel fresh, but he also managed to step up the comfort of the shoe a couple of notches. It’s crazy to see what a simple sole swap can do to a shoe, right? Make sure you hit up his page to see what other creations he has in store for us. Would you cop? Let us know in the comments below

Bold Blue Coats The Nike SB Stefan Janoski Max
With a Gamma Blue iteration still on the way, the latest colorway of the Nike SB Stefan Janoski Max is introduced in Green Abyss/Hasta.
The revised skateboarding silhouette essentially flaunts a predominantly blue upper comprised of mesh, while subtle hasta green accents are evidenced with the Swoosh logo and branding across its tongue labels.
All juxtaposed against a crisp white rubber sole unit equipped with an air bubble component in the heel for enhanced cushioning, you can purchase this pair at Nike stores overseas now.

I’ve never purchased a pair but I’m a fan of the design. I can’t vouch the model’s comfortability, but in this colorway and the overall build, it’s pretty appealing.

Summer-Ready With This Nike Free Hypervenom 2

Essentially covering the model’s engineered mesh upper and distinctive flywire system on its side panels, the soccer-sneaker hybrid is complemented with tonal black accents implemented on the tongue, laces, pull tabs, heel counter and large Swoosh branding across the inner lateral portion of its forefoot.
Finished off with a crisp and comfortable sole unit that provides superb cushioning upon every step, you can purchase this latest pair at select Nike stores overseas first, while a stateside release is imminent.

Nike Greece Releases New Ad Featuring The Greek Freak Giannis Antetokounmpo
The ever-changing NBA hit a new tier of athletic ridiculousness when Milwaukee Bucks head coach Jason Kidd decided to start 21-year-old 7-footer (and still growing) Giannis Antetokounmpo at point guard for the last third of the regular season. The crazy thing: it worked. Giannis is simply known as the Greek Freak in NBA circles and is poised to become a triple-double machine for years to come. Nike Basketball has already started promoting one of their brightest young stars in the latest Nike Greece ad campaign. Giannis laces up the Nike Kobe 11 and shows off his explosive first step in the video (it only takes him around 1 dribble at half-court to finish at the rim). Check out the full spot below and stay tuned for more Nike Basketball updates right here on Sneaker News.
