The most recent Nike Air Classic BW we showed you here on Sneaker News was an intriguing departure from the model’s characteristic colorways, a tonal mahogany mix of leather and suede whose white accents and gum sole made for one of the most interesting Big Windows in years. Here’s another new pair that also uses a tonal suede and leather combo, but a different distribution along with microperfs on the leather and a lack of any bright accents leaves these feeling entirely different. What the black, white and Pure Platinum trio lacks for a warm, fireside appeal it makes up with the kind of versatility that puts these on your feet every day of the week. Click through to see more angles and look for your pair at a Nike Sportwear stockist like Titolo.

Our sneaker-friends over in Europe are already getting a taste of what’s to come from Nike Sportswear Air Max for 2012, and this one taste of this Air Classic BW in Mahogany should be enough to conclude that 2012 will be a huge year. Right off the bat, flashes of 2010′s Parra x Patta x Air Max 1 come to mind, but this sick new release features a full beige sole (not really a true gum sole) with a tonal Mahogany upper constructed in leather and suede for that sexy two-toned appeal. Endclothing has a pre-order available now (with 20% off for non-Euro customers) so check out the images below and stick with Sneaker News for more Nike Sportswear 2012 releases.

Ever the Euro favorite, the Nike Air Classic BW has just dropped in two new colorways over the past few weeks, both featuring the same colorblocking including golden accents. The same range of materials is in play for the above pictured model, though there are a couple of changes relative to the black and white Big Windows. This one doesn’t feature a gradient along its Window frame but instead goes for all-gold, which is also the case for the Swooshes and upper eyelets. These feel less flashy and considerably earthier than the others thanks to a brown base; are they the best of the trio? Have a closer look after the jump and look for these now at select European retailers.

The Air Classic ‘Big Window’ is one of those overlooked Nike Air Max models in the United States, but gets a nice amount of attention overseas (as do other non year-designated Air Maxes). Of course, the States has seen some great releases, like the Stash x Nike Air Classic BW from the Artist Series (some regard it as one of the greatest Nike collaborations of all time), and of course, the original Persian Violet colorway. Not exactly an attempt to ‘rub it in’, but JDSports has another exclusive release of a Euro-speciality – the Nike Air Classic BW in this new white/black/blue colorway (*Insert rage-face meme here*). More shots available for you below, so take a look and let us know what you think.

Of the entire Nike Air Max running legacy, the Air Max 95 is easily the design most strongly associated with the use of gradients. But here’s proof that Nike Sportswear can just as easily fade colors into one another on a different silhouette, this time on the classic Air Max IV. Better known these days as the Nike Air Classic BW, this new edition strays from the classic ‘Persian Violet’ colorblocking template to employ an all-white leather base. This choice seems genius paired with golden accents, including a novel approach to the Big Window’s frame that moves from white to gold across a silvery midpoint. Click on through so you can see how this pristine BW looks from a variety of angles and grab yours from an NSW retailer like JD Sports.

We saw Nike going in on the black and gold color combo back in February for their Black History Month collection, and this just released Nike Air Classic BW comes off as an echo of that motif. As with the aforementioned February releases, the gold is strictly an accenting color here, silhouetting the swoosh and showing up on the gradient above the Big Window Air Max unit. The “Nike Air” and “Air Max” graphics also come in the regal gold, breaking up the black leather that otherwise dominates the upper. This is the latest in a string of strong releases for the Nike Air Max BW for this month, keeping this sometimes forgotten Air Max sneaker in the public eye. We’ve got a full look of the Nike Air Classic BW in black/metallic for you after the jump, and if you feel like you need them then hit up Titolo.

We mentioned in examining the most recent release that the Nike Air Classic BW seems to drop in groups toward the beginning of each season, and with Q4 and the ‘Holiday 2011′ set right around the corner, here’s another pair for your viewing (and wearing) pleasure. These utilize the exact same colorblocking pattern as the aforementioned Medium Grey and Blue Dusk edition, but the use of Black and Deep Burgundy in their respective places results in an entirely different look, but one that’s just as versatile in its own way. Click through to see more, let us know which of these recent Big Windows you like best and look for these at Nike Sportswear retailers including Titolo.

After a flurry of new releases to start the summer, we haven’t seen much from the Nike Air Classic BW over the past few months. The Big Windows are back, and from the looks of this dope new Medium Grey and Blue Dusk combo, better than ever. The Blue Dusk shade is a relatively new one for Nike, Inc., and judging by how great it looks with this grey base, it seems to be the ideal hue for muted ‘vintage’-feeling designs. Click on the jump below to see some more angles and look for these at Nike Sportswear dealers like Swiss sneaker suppliers, Titolo.
