Steve Prefontaine’s Nike running signature model has been quite prolific over the past year-plus, and here we see a brand new style about to be unleashed for summer. The Nike Pre Montreal Racer ‘Tape Pack’ stands out from the earlier releases by ditching the classic suede/nylon approach in favor of a mesh upper for supreme breathability. This summertime style apparently takes its name from the piping that connects the breathable sections, and you can see more of how they come together in additional images after the jump.

There are some regions in the world where the return of the Nike Air Huarache is a much more celebrated event than, say, LeBrons and Jordans. Europe is the place where trainers (or as well call, running shoes) are the apples of many eyes, and with the two OG re-issues of the Air Huarache already selling out in quick fashion, we know that whatever else NSW has in store for the silhouette will be met with equal fervor. This White/Cyber-Anthracite colorway isn’t exactly an OG, but the color-combo definitely works well with the high-tech styling of the Huarache – one of the true design marvels in the brand’s history. These are available now at overseas retailers like mita-sneakers, so enjoy the gallery of photos below and we’ll let you know when (and if) these ever hit the US market.

The Nike Air Trainer 1 definitely has cooled down a bit over the past couple of months, but that doesn’t mean that the Swoosh folks are tucking the Trainer away for good as far as 2013 is concerned. This Saturday, April 20th, will see the release of this – a premium pair that uses Black, Hyper red, and Gorge Green in gorgeous leather materials. This particular colorway appears to be a special edition for the upcoming 2013 NFL Draft, but anything Black/Red/Green built with these great materials is bound for that Gucci moniker as well, don’t you think? Tell us what you think of the Nike Air Trainer 1 shown and watch for them at retailers like CaliRoots and Nikestore this Saturday.

We’re rewinding a few years back (2009 to be exact) to the Nike Sportswear “Spike Lee” Pack that featured the Air Max 97, Big Nike High, and Blazer Mid…and almost the Air Trainer 2 LE. The Spike Lee Pack was tied together by the dope tongue label depicting Spike’s rectangular-framed glasses which was also used on the Air Trainer 2 LE, but for reasons unknown, the Trainer was never released in the Pack. The colorway is definitely much louder than the rest of the set, which is probably why we never really forget about ‘em. A rare chance to own this sample is up now, so refresh your memory and place your bids in on this true auction from mandmanda2445 on eBay.

How did the recent Nike Air Huarache retro treat you? Did you pay the extra bucks to grab a pair from overseas? Or were you amongst those that waited for a US release and ended up missing out?

Wale is a guy who you can trust to bring out something aside from the standard Air Jordan/Foamposite/Nike Basketball stuff that the majority of rappers out there seemed to be obsessed with (Just check this small selection of his sneaks for proof). This time around the DMV rapper is spotted rocking the Nike Air Tech Challenge Hybrid, that Agassi Frankenstein silhouette that made its debut in 2009. Continue reading for another shot of Wale wearing this seldom seen trainer and tell us in the comments if you’ve got the Nike Air Tech Challenge Hybrid in your personal rotation.
