After it did the same on the Roshe Run FB, a ‘Yeezy’ colorway made for serious demand on a recent Nike Air Max 1 FB release. The futbol-inspired Air Max 1 is moving on with some impressive forthcoming leopard suede makeups, but before those arrive, don’t forget about the Yeezy style’s counterpart from the first round of releases. This Metallic Silver and Current Blue blend arrived at select Euro retailers a short while back, but now US sneakerheads can have a chance at them with pairs in stock now at the Nike Sportswear NYC flagship store, 21 Mercer, or on eBay.

The latest Air Jordan 1 Mid GS release is one of the more decidedly feminine efforts on record. These new girls AJ1s use a healthy dose of Dynamic Pink alongside white and Metallic Platinum to prove the old ‘pink and shrink’ adage still makes for strong new styles. Have a look at the Wings jewel logo and how the ankle collar that surrounds it has a subtle sparkle, then grab this new AJ1 GS at Jordan Brand retailers like Titolo.

Tinker Hatfield designed the Air Safari as a twist on performance running as inspired by a luxurious ostrich leather couch. Add to this exotic theme an ACG-influenced LunarLon sole and you’ve got the makings of a shoe right at home in the great outdoors.

Lucas Puig’s adidas Skateboarding signature model has been in circulation for almost a year now, and here’s the most ‘adidas’ colorway to date. The Brand with the Three Stripes is synonymous with royal blue as contrasted by white, and these adidas Skate Lucas Pros are just that. They connect further with the adidas tennis legacy with gold branding, literally a classic foil versus the cutting edge SPRINTSKIN construction. Stick with Sneaker News for release info and let us know which adidas rider has the best footwear at the moment.

Here’s another Knit iteration of the Nike Air Footscape Woven Chukka. In these styles, Nike Sportswear runs one contrasting ribbon around the entire shoe, in this case, a Melon Tint strip. This element and the olive weaving around it buffers the Deep Smoke upper/murky blue sole combination’s contrast. The Footscape series tends to be quite polarizing, but those who are down will recognize the brilliance demonstrated in more photos after the jump. Let us know how these compare to the recent Poison Green drop and stay tuned because the US release can’t be too far off.

As the brand’s flagship classic runner, the New Balance 574 has been everywhere for as long as we can remember. The only way to try and hide it would be to apply some kind of concealment technology, but as we see in the case of these two new pairs, that only makes you want to look at them more. The olive ‘Camo’ 574s we showed you earlier this month are joined by a grey counterpart. These styles are blocked identically and both feature bright laces, whereas the relatively uncommon 501 switches things up for more camo print and neutral strings. Decide which you like best after seeing more photos below, then grab yours from NB retailers like Wish.

Kukini cage meets Hyperfuse tape atop a relatively rare negotiation from the Nike Free sole on this recent introduction. The Nike Free Alt Closure Run is perhaps the ultimate slip-on, a combination of tech that ensures superior comfort whether you intend them for casual wear or just want to get somewhere quickly. The Alt Closure’s Free 4.0 bottom finds a happy medium between the updated 5.0 and minimalist 3.0, which makes a perfect compliment to the highly ventilated featherweight upper. Let us know how these compare to the first drop that had roughly opposite color distribution and stick with Sneaker News for release info.
