Nike Toki ND   Challenge Red   Cool Grey   White

The Nike Toki is part of Nike’s Indie line, which generally puts out lifestyle or retro-inspired shoes. The Toki fits both categories but this previously previewed colorway of Challenge Red is somewhat of an anomaly to the Nike Toki based on its history of subdued colors. What was once a Nike Sportswear model is now seeing widespread release, and you can now pick up this pair from Finishline. We’ve got a great coupon for you to use to save some cash, so continue reading to grab it!

Color: Challenge Red/Cool Grey-White

Nike Air Force 1 07   Birch   White

Has any specific colorway/design of the Nike Air Force 1 ever been retroed? We’re not talking about the white-on-whites (which releases every August) or any other general release, but those special colorways that have become hard-to-find collectibles. The Stash x Nike Air Force 1 was once re-made for the friends-and-family One Night Only event, but outside of that, the Nike Air Force 1 has yet to be tainted with a “retro”. That’s tough news for a lot of Nike Air Force 1 fans, but this new colorway of the Nike Air Force 1 should remind you of the Air Force 1 Linen, a shoe that we at Sneaker News deem the third best Nike Air Force 1 ever (based on our Sneaker News March Madness Air Force 1 Bracket). These are obviously not the Linen AF1, but this clean pair does feature a nice hemp-like woven textile on the toebox and middle panel. Get your light pink markers out and scribble in that swoosh after you pick up a pair from Size?.

ALIFE Public Naval   Glen Plaid | Available

With summer rapidly approaching, it’s about time for everybody to start wearing (a lot more) white.  What better way to add a splash of sophistication to your fit than with these new ALIFE Public Naval lowtops.  The Public has been around for a while in a variety of sub-styles, but we, the public, have never seen it look quite so classy, especially given its attention-grabbing heel.  On this pair it’s red on the back, which is a perfect contrast to the subtle ‘grey’ glen plaid that covers this pair’s upper.  Take a look at more shots after the jump and grab a pair from an ALIFE retailer like Atlanta’s Wish.

Supra Summer Injection Collection

Aside from the Factory 413 ‘Suprawood’ Vaider, Supra has been relatively quiet this April.  That all changes with a collection they’re calling the ‘Supra Summer Injection’.  This latest drop from the most successful upstart sneaker brand contains 5 kicks in various styles and cuts, each with a healthy helping of black.  Let’s go left-to-right on the photo above, which starts with the only shoe that wouldn’t be considered more or less all-black, a white/black tie-dye Supra Bullet lowtop.  The next three are all done in black nylon, and you can choose from the Thunder Low or High, or Terry Kennedy’s dual-strapped Society.  Last, but certainly not least, the black and gold Skytop II that’s basically the opposite of an earlier pair.  These joints are shipping now, so get with your local Supra retailer today.

Nike Air Force 1 07   Wolf Grey   White

This latest colorway of the Nike Air Force 1 features Wolf Grey, but it’s not nearly as vicious as it sounds. In fact, this tone of grey is as soft as you can get, and combined with a contrasting material on the toe and central panel, this Air Force 1 is a fairly pleasnt overall package. This woven textile you see on the shoe seems to be a popular choice for the Air Force 1, so expect to see it on upcoming pairs of the Nike Air Force 1 as well. This pair is now available for purchase at titolo.

Style: 315122-017
Color: Wolf Grey/White

Nike LeBron VII Low   White   Sport Red   Black | Available

Not one, but two! LeBron James has two low-top designs to call his own, and the one you saw first (the silhouette above) is merely called the Nike LeBron VII Low despite having an Air Max Unit as well. For the sake of saving us from confusion, ‘LeBron VII Low‘ will suffice. We’ve seen a lot more colorways of this version, and this colorway of white, black and sport red (I <3 NY?) that was previewed earlier this month is now available from rmkstore on eBay.

Style: 395717-100
Color: White/Black-Sport Red

Classics Revisited: Nike Air Trainer Max 91

The Nike Cross Trainer was designed as the ultimate shoe for the multi-dimensional, dual-sport athlete. Bo Jackson was a force in two sports that demanded different sets of athletic prowess, and he was consequently viewed as the prototypical cross-trainer. Nike and Bo Jackson teamed up to market Cross Training shoes to a generation in which universal sport culture was growing; After the wide success of the Nike Air Trainer 1 and the Nike Trainer SC (Strength Conditioning), Cross Trainers created a considerable amount of momentum for Nike, as other prominent athletes such as Barry Sanders and Jerry Rice were brought onto the Nike Cross Training team. And with the ‘Just Do It’ slogan becoming the battle-cry for athletes around the globe, cross training revolutionized physical fitness and became a sport in itself. The Nike Air Trainer Max ’91 was just one of the many impressive designs from the iconic Nike Trainer legacy of that era, so continue on to Sneaker News HD for a full gallery and additional history of the Nike Air Trainer Max ’91.

Collections: Chris P Cuts

Sneaker Freaker recently caught up with Chris P Cuts, discussing his love for vinyl and leather. The UK deejay and sneaker collector discusses the relevance of both cultures to his upbringing. He even explains how his mom’s preference for Nike is what led to his appreciation for sneakers since such an early age.  He also explains how mere materials and colorways are what decides for him what kicks to add to his collection, rather than what’s the hottest item at the time.  Taking a look at his home studio/storage room, you can see Chris’s collection vastly covers the Nike spectrum; from basketball to running to trainers, from old to new.  Check out some shots of his collection after the jump, and get over to SnkrFrkr to read the complete interview.
