Nike released packs of Transformers-themed sneakers around the release of Michael Bay’s first two films in 2007 and ’09, and while they were all exceptionally true to their inspirations, we doubt anyone in Beaverton expected things to get so literal in the wake of the third film’s DVD release. These aren’t the exact same models used in the aforementioned TF movie collabos, but that doesn’t mean these chopped up kicks don’t look like they just made that distinctive morphing sound. Models like the Air Jordan III ‘Pure’, Nike Air Stab and several others have been remade in robotic shapes that still preserve the shoes’ key lines so you can easily identify their natural form. Click through to get a look at the whole run created by TransShoe Formers and let us know which ones are the good guys.

Nike All Conditions Gear continues to demand that you not alot your entire holiday sneaker budget to Air Jordan Retros or other more traditional sneakerhead favorites, their current run of boots perhaps the strongest and most varied in the outdoor division’s entire history. The new designs are better than they have been in years and hybrids like the Air Max Bakin Posite Boot and the above pictured Nike Lava Dunk High prove that ACG has achieved an excellent equifinality and now have the kind of versatility to truly offer something for everyone. These latest ACG Lava Dunks come in rich and earthy monochromatic suede designs that add the kind of subtly vintage oxidation to their soles that many would love to see the VNTG series steered toward, and finish it off with a contrasting outsole. Olive green and Grain colorways will hit select Nike Sportswear retailers like End next January, and you can pre-order your pair today.

Only in a magical kitchen like the innovative one at Nike’s Beaverton, Oregon headquarters could you concoct a recipe whereby two mid-late ’90s basketall shoes known for their wavy designs could be hybridized to create one of of the 20-teens’ most interesting winter boot designs. This new Nike ACG Air Max Bakin’ Posite Boot is somewhere between the ‘Metallic Pewter’ Air Foamposite One and ‘Metallic Silver’ Air Force 1 Foamposite, but manages to outdo them both in terms of visible cushioning thanks to a full-length Max Air setup. Click through so you can see more details including the well placed hit of red on their tongue tags, and grab a pair today from footsoldiers on eBay.

The Nike ACG Air Max Conquer seems appropriately named for a boot that can so easily excel both in the streets and off road. It’s a tank-like, weather’s-dirt-from-its-shoulder-brushing mud stomper with serious traction for those sneaky patches of black ice, but the deluxe smooth leather construction and full-length Max Air cushion make for a look that can compete with the recent best in performance and casual appeal. And just like recent All Conditions Gear standout the Lunar MacLeay, the Air Max Conquer seems to have nailed a go-to colorblocking formula that sees tonal shades paired as is the case with this Sable Green and Iguana edition. It’s a boot so well built, LeBron James collaborated with Nike Sportswear on his own pair; should we put you down for not one, but many pairs? Check out the Sable Green Air Max Conquer ACGs in greater detail after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for more rugged Nike Boots this winter. via mita sneakers

Presumably among the key factors guiding LeBron James’ decision to join the Miami Heat last summer would be that winters in South Beach are a bit milder than the lake-effect snow-filled cold half of the year in Cleveland. But with 41* away games guaranteed each year and a litany of opportunities to hop on a private jet, a guy like King James has gotta be prepared for all environs, and for that this new Nike Sportswear collection seems a perfect fit. The LeBron James x Nike Air Force 1 Low and Air Max Conquer ACG both come entirely blacked-out, save select branding elements like the lion tongue tag on the Conquers. Click through so you can see more details on both pairs and look for these now at select NSW stockists like Caliroots.

After Converse wrapped up its 1Hund(RED) Artist collaboration a couple years back, its PRODUCT drops have trickled to a stop, leaving another Nike, Inc. branch to step in with a few AIDS research-benefiting designs of their own. Coming from Nike Sportswear’s All Conditions Gear division comes this brand new PRODUCT(RED) x Nike ACG Zoom Meriwether boot, a design notably different from the majority of releases to this point for its use of a smooth leather upper rather than suede. This buttery smooth black base works great with red laces and a white midsole, and that combo perfectly matches the NSW Melton Destroyer peacoat and NSW Cheyenne Backpack. Expect these at the most exclusive Nike Sportswear stockists starting December 1st, and click through to see the entire collection in the meantime.
