Volt and Black has always been an icon of Air Max kicks, but not so much before the year 1995 when the Air Max 95 debuted the ground-breaking colorway. In fact, Volt/Black on the Air Max 1 is a rarity, with select Dave White collaborations and Nike iD offerings being the only route to Volt/Black AM1s. Things are about to change later this year when Nike Sportswear unveils the Nike Air Max 1 in this dazzling colorway in Premium form, using a unique color-blocking scheme and splitting the mudguard from volt to black – something also rarely (if ever) seen on the OG Air Max shoe. Expect this sick Air Max 1 to touch down at NSW retailers this Holiday 2013 season, with early reports noting an October release.

It appears that this new combo of Black and Gold will take over Nike Sportswear’s Turf-style shoes, with the Nike Zoom Turf Jet ’97 joining with the two Nike Griffey releases in this incredible “Elite Away” composition. The Turf Jet ’97 takes advantage of the gold, using the midsole pod to give the winning color some added pop, while the choice embroidery on the Swoosh gives these a sick Championship-like appeal. A full shot is just ahead, so take a look and stay tuned to Sneaker News for release info as these will drop soon with a $140 price-tag.

So we’ve seen a few of the Air Jordan #XX8DaysofFlight hit eBay already, with lucky winners looking to flip their fortunes into some good green. Can’t really blame ‘em, considering the value of each Retro can’t really be determined except for the fact that the one-of-one status should garner some high bids, but Franaldo Hanna (@throwuponyaself), who was the recipient of the Air Jordan XIII, is hoping his auction goes for a high price because he’s donating all of the proceeds directly to charity (specifically, St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital). The shoes itself are up for display at Sneakerology in East Hampton in Long Island, NY if you’re in the area and want to lay your eyes on true one-of-ones! This is about the best example of “pay it forward” we’ve seen in recent sneaker news, so check out the gallery of the Air Jordan XIII #XX8DaysofFlight below and get in on the charity auction right now from native2skills on eBay.

The recent Nike LeBron X Elite releases have been available in GS sizes, but in the formation of the less-expensive non-Elite build. Perhaps that works out better for the smaller-footed Nike LeBron hunters, and as we get a look at the GS version of the upcoming Sport Turquoise/Volt-Violet Force colorway, we’re left to wonder if the Nike LeBron X Elite “Total Crimson”, which drops in June, will also be available in this GS model. In any case, check out the detailed images of this upcoming release, and purchase right now from kicksclusive on eBay.

Another throwback to the 80′s (or 1987, more specifically) is in the works for 2013, as we get another look at an exciting Retro return of the Nike Air Revolution in a White/Red/Black/Grey colorway. As the first Nike Basketball shoe to feature Nike Air in visible window form, the Nike Air Revolution is as a significant icon in the Nike catalog as any other, so expect a rather strong response to these when the Revolution officially hits stores later this year as a Nike Sportswear offering. We’ve got additional angles of this clean OG-style colorway after the jump, so give it a review and stay tuned to Sneaker News for release updates.
