The Nike Solarsoft Woven Mule has shown off two distinct weaves in its first two appearances. Here we see a closer look at a colorway previewed in the model’s first appearance back in January, a ‘South Beach’-leaning style whose ribbons are in the traditional NSW Woven vein as opposed to the considerably larger style shown in February. This colorway’s brown elements along with both pink and orange keeps the Miami look fresh and beckons you to a closer look at more photos after the jump.

It looks like LeBron isn’t the only one who will see his sneakers transform into a lifestyle look this year. The Nike Kobe 8 looks to be transitioning into this Nike Kobe 8 NSW model as well. The upper echoes that Kobe vibe with both the Swoosh placement and the remnants of the heel clip on the back, both of which are placed on a flat-footed sole to help it transition to an entirely different category. See more on the Nike Kobe 8 NSW “Mexican Blanket” colorway after the jump and keep in mind that these look like an Asian release for June at the moment.

The Nike LeBron X “Brown Suede” is a sneaker that we should see in stores next month. The wait has been a long one, putting quite a distance between the Nike LeBron X “Cork” and whatever will end up as following Nike Sportswear edition of LeBron James’ tenth signature shoe. The second batch should be a little bit more bunched together, seeing as how we’re still expecting the release of the “Denim” and the “Black Suede” joints. Hit the jump with us and focus on the Nike LeBron X “Brown Suede” for now and stay tuned for more detailed release info.

The Air Jordan 1 is not only an iconic game-changing sneaker and cultural milestone, it has given way to countless casual renditions. AJ1s are done in a variety of appealing colorways and even different silhouettes, as in the case of this casual lowtop iteration. The Jordan AJ V.2 Low has more lifestyle appeal thanks to the laid-back vulc sole approach, which works perfectly with the extremely wearable Squadron Green suede/canvas upper. Check out more shots after the jump, then grab your ‘Squadron Green’ AJ V2 Lows from Eastbay.

mita sneakers‘ signature chain link product wall is something most US sneakerheads have only seen on the insoles of their many collaborations. mita Creative Director Shigeyuki Kunii took the opportunity to reflect the Tokyo store’s intent with their 30th anniversary Reebok Classic Leather design. Shigeyuki notes that mita stands out because the relatively dark environment lets customers see what their shoes look like at night. mita’s CLs spin this theme into glow in the dark elements on the chambray side panels of an otherwise premium suede design. These are sold out at the home store but should see a release at Reebok Certified Network retailers shortly, so stick with Sneaker News for updates and check out more images below in the meantime.

Russell Westbrook is among the NBA’s truly elite talents; just ask Kevin Durant how much of an impact he makes. That’s why Jordan Brand chose him as one of the Jumpman’s youth movement representatives, and a young baller can further relate to the twenty-four year old Westbrook as represented in this new spot for Champs Sports. Backed by T.I.’s ‘Go Get It’, ‘Game Starts Here’ shows how Jordan has you covered head to toe this summer, both on the court and off.
