How refreshing is it to see folks frantically trying to track down a $70 sneaker? That’s been the case time and time again for the Nike Roshe Run in its various forms. And we’re not expecting this new set of 2013 colorways to be any different. Included is the squadron blue, the tarp green which almost looks like a riff off the OG iguana, and a black based pair that sneaks in a cool blue for the Nike Solarsoft insert. See all three of the new Nike Roshe Run colorways after the jump and look for them now at shops like Premier (Or Nikestore if you find they’re stock to be sufficiently wiped out).

We’re about a month away from the ‘Superhuman’-themed Nike Basketball Elite Series 2.0 release date, and as a prelude, the Sportswear division has a couple of corresponding trios on tap. The first of these is the Nike Lunar Force 1 ‘Superhero’ collection, including this LeBron James-inspired ‘Galaxy’ edition. This design draws parallels between LeBron’s toughness and the galactic process of fusion culminating in the hardness of diamond around which his LeBron X is themed. These new photos prove the dramatic presence this design has in person, so have a closer look below and grab this model scheduled for an official release this Friday from NSW stores like Politics.

The Nike Lunar Force 1 is one of the most recent sneakers in the Nike Sportswear oeuvre to pick up on a string of geographically inspired colorways. The meccas that are nodded to in this trio are NYC, Milan, and London. Of course we can pick out one city amongst those who can lay a much greater claim to the Nike Air Force 1 heritage, but that’s not the say that the European parts of this quick collection aren’t deserving of their own special SMUs. See all three pairs from the Nike Lunar Force 1 “City Pack” QS and be advised that they’re already available at spots like mita sneakers, so its possible that a US release is on the way.

Do-it-all sneaker customizer Revive has steadily impressed us with his restorations and sole-swaps of the bulkiest of vintage Nike Basketball shoes, but today we’re hit one of the most luxurious projects to ever grace the Sneaker News front page – this Cole Haan Lunargrand Wingtip. The concept behind this one is a historical tribute to the company, with “1928″ featured on the upper to call out the brand’s inaugural year, with other 1900′s vintage-inspired cues to note Cole Haan’s legendary position in the high-end footwear industry. The floral and ornamental graphics are details typically found in old Singer sewing machines, which achieves a great “old meets new” approach when juxtaposed with the futuristic Lunar outsole. Definitely a treat for the older sneakerheads who have made the seamless transition into the Lunargrand, so check out the gallery below and let us know what you think.

The Nike Roshe Run may have never had more differing styles available than what’s out there right now. The original version is present, the Nike Roshe Run FB is flying off the shelves, the Nike Roshe Run Woven seems to be a success, and that’s just where it starts. Bringing the graphic look onto the OG silhouette is this new duo of WMNS releases, which both have a colorful speckle look to them. See the pastel pairs again after the jump and grab them now from Nike Sportswear retailers like Kicks HI.

Nike Sportswear isn’t done with the Year of the Snake stuff just yet. There are, at the very least, three more pairs we can expect that will come equipped with that reptilian look as a nod to the Chinese zodiac calender. They are the Solarsoft bunch grouped together here, which includes the Nike Solarsoft Moccasin Woven, the Nike Solarsoft Mule Woven, and the Nike Solarsoft Rache Woven. And while they’ve all got scales and the Solarsoft x Woven combo that’s where the similarities end-as each silhouette sports a pretty unique colorway and overall build. See each after the jump and watch for the Nike Solarsoft Woven “Year of the Snake Pack” QS at Hanon this Saturday, March 23rd.

Just as was the case with the BHM and Area 72 packs, the Nike Lunar Force 1 is ready with a design to accompany the latest basketball-centric group theme. This ‘Superhero’ Lunar Force 1 echoes the design language we’ve seen employed on the Hyperflight series celebrating Nike Basketball’s ‘big three’ signature superstars. These also get a ‘Galaxy’ nickname thanks to the interstellar Swoosh design, a detail that stands out against the Bright Citrus-accented Anthracite and Dark Obsidian build. Let us know how these compare to LeBron, Kobe and KD’s Hyperflights and grab your ‘Superhero’ Lunar Force 1s from Rock City Kicks.

With the benefit of hindsight, we can look back on the first Nike Free Inneva Woven release as foreshadowing a significant infusion of woven designs across the Nike Sportswear catalog. Now that the Free TR 5.0 V4 and WMNS Rosherun WVN have helped establish the look, the Inneva returns with a super premium duo for spring. This new ‘Photo Blue’ Free Inneva Woven stands out from its black predecessor and the similar packmate by utilizing a striped ribbon that results in an even more dynamic visual presentation. Let us know what you think after seeing more photos below and stick with Sneaker News for release info.
