The Skyline may not be a classic Nike Air Max per se, but its tooling ends up for a streamline look and provokes solid colorways, therefore giving it way to make a mark for itself. While we recently showed new colorways for women, now NikeStore makes available a few new CW’s for the guys. Each pair gets almost a tonal effect, with little accents of a foreign color. Each pair also plays with a mix of materials giving them more substance for a casual look rather than just athletic. Grab yours now.

Coors Light claims to be ‘The Silver Bullet‘, and here’s what it might have looked like if they had designed a Nike Air Max 97.  The pair pictured above is practically identical to the OG colorway that shares its name with the aforementioned adult beverage, ‘cept it adds some white to the outsole and swaps out the red hits for a nice blue shade somewhere right in between emerald and turquoise.  This Marina Blue AM97 is about as perfect a summer runner as you could imagine, and it’s available from Nike Sportswear retailers like FinishLine.

Ah, the days of a five-game First Round series, John Tesh’s NBA on NBC theme song, and Bob Costas’ ability to make even the most meaningless of games sound like the final battle scene of < enter your epic movie here >. Fast-forward to the 2010 NBA Playoffs, where we are very much ankle-deep into the opening round; not much ‘heat’, per-say, but a ton of great Nike Basketball kicks like the Nike Hyperfuse, Hyperfly, and Air Max Hyperize were on display. Dwyane Wade rocked the OG colorway of the AJ2010 with his FLASH3 PE logo curtaining the window, Ray Allen showed of one of his many Ray Allen Air Jordan PEs, and we even got an early 00′s shock with two players wearing Nike Shox (no, not Vince). It was truly a hodgepodge of sneakers, so continue reading to check out what kicks the NBAers wore over the last couple of games. via Yahoo!.

A new edition to the Rock Pack, Nike shreds hard with a new kids’ Big Nike Low.  White and silver is a nice supplement to the usually blacks, golds and deep greens we normally see with the grommets and metal flipped Nike branding on the heel.  In fact, it looks like it should be a part of last years White Heavy Metal collection. Too bad it’s a GS, cuz we can see a plenty of alternative musicians and stars want to get their hands on these.  Available overseas like Chapter, these will it the US soon and are also already available on NikeStore.

Mo Williams didn’t repeat his All Star status from 2009, but in the 2009-10 season that saw Cleveland acquire Shaq and Antawn Jamison, ‘Mo Gotti’ retained some of his spotlight with a few hot Nike Basketball PEs.  Here’s a look at what Mo’s rocking this postseason as the Cavs make short work of the Bulls, a duo of Nike Air Max Hyperfly PEs.  The black pair with red and gold accents should be perfect for away games, but Cleveland has home court advantage throughout the playoffs, so expect to see plenty of the red and white joints with just a touch of black.  Photos of both pairs follow the jump and Sneaker News will continue to bring you the best in NBA Playoff Player Exclusive sneakers.

When we mention the ‘Koston Dunks‘, to this point, we were just talking about a particular pair of Nike SB Dunk Lows that Eric designed to resemble the Thailand flag.  Well, just like the flag’s red and white stripes, here’s proof that there are now *two* Koston Dunks.  This Nike SB Dunk High goes the gold route, mixing metallic leather and suede sections, plus some airbrushed ‘shine’ on the lateral ankle area.  It’s a totally unique look for an SB Dunk High, and we’re pleased to learn these will be out with no delay, set for an April 27th drop at select SB retailers.  Click the jump below for more photos.

The Nike Air Max Hyperize was the first basketball shoe to join the ginormous Air Attack Pack, but those are a little bit off from retail.  Here’s a new drop in the meantime, which also goes with a simple two-tone colorway.  This sport red and white AM Hyperize NFW has a very clean look that’s enhanced by the blending of these two shades on the speckled midsole.  A suitable look for the streets or streetball, these are available now from NikeStore.

With this pack of Nike Air Max Hyperfly Supreme PEs, one of the five is a ‘Waldo’; can you find it?  It’s not because the red and white striping on the Hyperfly’s midsole looks like the character’s famous garb, but rather, where are Ben Gordon and his Detroit Pistons?  BG7 and Deeetroit Basketball missed the playoffs for the first time in about a decade, which makes this pack a little different, given that the rest of the guys represented are all currently still alive and kicking toward the Larry O’Brien Trophy.  Simple, team oriented colorways for Shawn Marion, Brandon Roy, Paul Pierce and Tony Parker each feature their guy’s personal Nike ‘logo’ on the heel of a Flywire-equipped upper.  The pack is available stateside at House of Hoops, with all five PE’s also at Japanese e-tailer LTD, and most of the models up on eBay as well.

We’ve seen a bunch of new Air Jordan Flight 9 colorways recently, but here’s one that very well might best represent the era this shoe seeks to capture.  The simple white upper with red and black accents is a ‘pure’ palette that you’d immediately identify with the Air Jordan III and IV, and it’s clear this design was strongly influenced by both.  The AJ6 is also well represented here with its Air bubble frame and lace loop, but even the Sixes didn’t have as much translucency on their outsole as these.  Grab your own Air Jordan Flight 9s today from your local JB retailer or ID4Shoes on eBay.
