By now, you have probably already seen some of the new and upcoming Nike Zoom Alpholution releases, with the Cobra Commander edition, of course, being the most memorable. Four colorways have just hit Nikestore, providing several different looks for the shoe depending on your personal preference. On the conservative side, there is a Black on Black version and a White/Insignia Blue pair, but if you’re looking for a little more flavor, the other two are a little bolder. One pair uses a Varsity Red upper with Black accents and several sections of Safari print. The other has a bit of a Barkley feel to it thanks to a Black upper with Varsity Red and Royal accents. If you’re feeling the Alpholution, all four are available now at Nikestore.

One of Nike’s best Bball shoe offerings in a long time. Unlike the original Alpha’s which were heavy, stiff, and tight out of the box, these are extremely lightweight and flexible. The originals had layers of stiff leather which took a while to break in and were always hot, particularly in the summer. The shoe is very lightweight, but still supporting. It reminds me of last year’s adidas Summer Run, but this is a better shoe because of its support and fit. The mesh panels are well placed and allow good ventilation. The toe box is very roomy. Overall, the shoe is comfortable right out of the box. The variable lacing system and mid-foot strap let you adjust the fit, so you foot won’t slide inside the shoe or cram your toes into the front of the shoe when you stop. The sole is well cushioned, particularly the visible air heel. The overall style is appealing, with a subtle blend of two blue colors, and a mix of tumbled and patent leather. The heel has a corduroy-like fabric which is soft and easy on the Achilles. Note the high tongue, which also adds to the overall design balance of the shoe. Very comfortable, cool shoe.
