This summer the Nike LeBron X will go denim on us, following up the likes of the “Cork” release with a material that’s been just a bit more common across the history of sneakers. It does keep things well out of the performance realm though, which seems to be the overall theme of the Nike LeBron X EXT. Release info remains murky-we’ve seen Euro retailers listing them as a June 22nd release though so the wait hopefully won’t be too much longer. Continue reading for another look at the “Denim” Nike LeBron X and tell us whether or not they top the high precedent set by the “Cork”.

The second Nike Kobe 8 NSW Lifestyle colorway showed up at just the right time with the ‘Mexican Blanket’ debut dropping on Saturday. Our second look at the ‘Gorge Green’ Kobe 8 Lifestyle is the first 360, and reveals black nubuck trim along with leather laces and a splash of purple hidden on the outsole. The upper’s texture is more apparent in these new images, and curiously, the snake scale visual is cast in a horse hair material. These look to be arriving in Asia next Saturday, so stick with Sneaker News for the US release date.

The gap between the Nike LeBron X “Cork” and the other EXT-styled pairs has been quite a big one. While you’re waiting for the likes of the Nike LeBron X “Denim” and its brethren to follow it up, have a look at this crazy sample version of the shoe. The midsole gets a switchup via the red crackle that’s in place, the brown leather tongue is replaced with some red mesh business, and the side Swoosh is given a bit more pop via some further red treatment. Continue reading to see the alternate Nike LeBron X “Denim” version and let us know if they top the forthcoming retail release.

The Nike WMNS Free Advantage SP NSW is one of those designs that you have to see in person to fully appreciate. Its charm is more evident in images of this new Sail and Mortar colorway than in the darker colorway seen earlier. In the white makeup, the Moire-ish array of perforations in varying gauges makes a for a more dramatic effect, though the breathability and premium quality are identical. Check out more photos below so you can decide which looks better and stick with Sneaker News because they should hit retail shortly.

The Nike Free Inneva Woven has shown off two main routes to date, one path involving a monotone upper application (with or without contrasting laces), and another such as the new style seen here. This two-tone look typifies the second quarter drops as we’ve seen from the Poison Green and Total Crimson getups, but this Squadron Blue and Neo Turquoise edition straddles the line with light and dark blues interwoven. A peanut butter leather lining is a nice finishing touch that’ll draw your eyes to these on the shelves of Nike Sportswear retailers like Social Status.

The stitched leather Swoosh and heel clip arch combine with the cupsole to give these that old school feel, so stick with Sneaker News to find out more details on this imminent arrival.
