If we must bring up an underrated sector of the sneaker game, we’ll nominate the women’s division of Nike’s action sports wing. The Nike 6.0 WMNS footwear releases have been downright impressive, depending on great colorways and materials rather than ‘hype’ and nicknames. Take for example this latest release of the Nike WMNS 6.0 Dunk High; it’s got a tonal black tumbled leather upper lined with fleece for that streetwear for the mountains look. Of course, these might not be suitable for hiking up rugged trails, but don’t doubt for a second that these won’t break necks on the street. You can find these now at Nike 6.0 retailers like Extra Butter so check out the additional images below and let us know what you think.

Some of the most beloved Nike SB’s came from Jordan inspired colorways, so when Nike 6.0 drops a dunk like this with its distinct “Bred” colorway, sneakerheads gotta give them some credit. If you missed out on the Air Jordan 1 ‘Banned’ well then this might be next best thing, a Nike 6.0 Dunk High SE that comes in an unmistakable color combo that will immediately have you thinking of that OG colorway of the Air Jordan 1. Even the leather on these looks similar to that release, with a bit of the textured vintage feel that was highly praised on the Air Jordan 1 ‘Banned’. Sure, the suede feels a little out of place but make no mistake, these are heaters. Hit the jump for more photos of this impressive Nike 6.0 Dunk High SE which is available now at evo.

Nike 6.0 certainly is picking up steam, coming with a wealth of new styles and colorways as they vie for the number one spot in action sports. Well, you can never go too wrong with a Dunk so that’s certainly a fine place to start. This new Nike 6.0 Dunk High SE comes in a darker colorway, combining a mixture of black leather and grey suede on the upper for a subdued look. The flex wrap sole on the bottom of these gives them an added measure of bend, a definite necessity for anyone who plans to skate in these Dunk Highs. Hit the jump to get a full look at this griptape-like colorway of the Nike 6.0 Dunk High SE and head over to Eastbay to get a pair for yourself.

They’re not even in the same ballpark when it comes to resale value and general public interest, but there’s one area where Nike 6.0 has it all over big brother SB: ladies sneakers. Nike Six not only has womens-only silhouettes but also offers smaller size runs of feminized classics like the above pictured Nike 6.0 WMNS Dunk High. This yellow leather Dunk High for women has a slight Big Bird vibe to it, though pyramidally-embossed sections on the ankle collar and Swooshes serve to give these an almost heavy metal twist.

Little Nike 6.0 sure has grown up fast, rapidly emerging from the shadows of Nike SB with some dope releases that have helped the action sports line carve out its own lane. The Nike 6.0 Rizal Low Premium should definitely help them in that quest, a totally new model that is jam packed with choice materials. The shoe comes off looking a bit like the Nike 6.0 Brazen with its chukka-like design and similar swoosh hit, but the great leather and thick crepe sole of the Rizal Low helps it stand out in its own right. The leather on the these three just released colorways has a nice tumbled feel, and each comes in a darker shade that gives this sneaker a lifestyle look. And who can argue against a crepe sole, that thick squishy set up that has found its way onto a host of Nike models throughout the years. The Nike 6.0 Rizal Low Premium is definitely a big step in the right direction for Nike 6.0, and they are available now at Nikestore. Hit the jump to get an extensive look at all three colorways.

Nike 6.0 has long been considered the little brother of the Nike SB, but lately the action sports line has been getting more and more support in the form of dope colorways. The 6.0 Dunk LR takes the traditional Dunk upper and puts it on top of a vulcanized rubber sole, something more specifically geared toward action sports in place of the usual Dunk sole. This advanced look at the Spring 2012 line up shows some nice colorblocking in the form of a two toned approach. Beyond that there are two 6.0 Dunk Low LR’s here caught up in a all business black and white set up. Continue reading to get a look at each of these new pairs set to release in Spring 2012 and let us know if they will be making their way to your collection. via CK.

Nike Sportswear vulcanized the Dunk and came up with the Dunk High AC back in 2009, the Swoosh’s action sports following suit with the lowtop version a few months later. The autoclaved Dunk SE 6.0 can then be seen as the forefather of this new revelation, the Nike 6.0 Dunk High LR. Just like the SE lows, the Dunk High LR swaps out the Dunk’s original cupsole for a vulcanized bottom, but unlike the SEs, who share a Flex Wrap sole with the Braata, the LR goes with a classic Blazer-style bottom. Click through to see more of the first three colorways, let us know which is best and stick with Sneaker News for updates on these spring 2012 releases. via CK.

We’ve been hearing rumblings for nearly a month and now it’s finally here. After having seen the trailer version last week, here’s the full-length Nike ‘The Chosen’ video. This action packed half hour depicts some of the Swoosh’s most recognizable action sports stars tearing up their respective terrains under the dark of night. This makes for some interesting visuals as high intensity colored lights are used to ‘colorblock’ the backgrounds, making these rank against Wieden+Kennedy’s best TV spots in terms of pure visual stimulation. Click through to see the video in its entirety, let us know what you think and head over to the Nike Chosen minisite to submit your entry before the July 29th deadline.
