JD Sports is one of Europe’s top Nike Sportswear dealers, pulling down exclusive colorways with a frequency few can match. They’re particularly fond of Air Max 90 and 95 and love to see these models in dark shades either centered around blue or using it for accents. This latest Nike Air Max 90 isn’t a JD-Only drop, but with its black upper, textured mudguard and Photo Blue accents, these are an olive-for-grey swap away from being identical to an August 2012 JD exclusive. Let us know which came out better after you’ve seen more below, then grab this one straight from the source at NikeStore.

There’s one more Nike Zoom Hyperflight colorway on deck from Nike Sportswear that does that “Superhero” thing. That would be this red reef, court purple, and black colorway that was part of early previews but has ended up with a little bit later date. Speculation surrounding the connected character in the NBA points to Blake Griffin, a previous darling of Nike Basketball who has since switched allegiances to the Jordan Brand team. Continue reading for more on the Nike Zoom Hyperflight “Superhero”, release date May 4th, and purchase an early pair from id4shoes on eBay.

The Glove didn’t make its March 2013 projected retro release date, but soon the answer to the question “GP, are you with me,” will indeed be “Oh yeah!” Just days after the announcement that trash-talking defensive genius Gary Payton will be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame, the model he wore on the cover of the ‘Master P’ Slam Magazine cover shows up with the promise of a drop sometime during this new season. The Nike Zoom Flight 98 brings back three OG colorways including this University Red Exoskeleton‘d black/white original. Check it out up close after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for updates.

The rarely seen grade school-sized Big Window arrives in a new colorway next month. The Nike Air Classic BW is typically associated with the Air Max legacy’s formative years, but this new black, Anthracite and Cool Grey edition adds a bold red shade on the Swoosh and sockliner to introduce youngsters to both the BW’s iconic styling and one of the sneaker world’s indespensable colorways. Take a closer look below, then secure your kids a dope graduation present with a pre-order for the May shipment from Titolo.

All of a sudden elephant print is all over the Nike Air Force 1 lineup. Sure we’ve seen it happen in the past, but perhaps never in this rapid a succession on random retail pairs. This time around the Nike Air Force 1 High goes into the jungle, utilizing the famed pattern on its back end. What’s more the sneaker picks up on a white/red/black combination that actually links them up a little bit further to that Air Jordan vibe that the beastly print exudes. See more of this Nike Air Force 1 High below and purchase yours from Rock City Kicks.

Nike Retros haven’t been limited to just signature and top-shelf models, because along with the Air Pennys and Speed Turfs and such, we’ve seen “takedown” models and cheaper alternatives get re-released (the Turf Raider being an example). The Nike Air Way Up might be a bit more familiar to our readers, as this model came right around the time the first Pennys released. Despite being a “takedown” of the Air Max Penny, the Air Way Up was still a popular model in the NBA and for consumers, so there’s definitely a demand for them during this first Retro run. These have just become available at retailers like Rock City Kicks with an MSRP of $120 so check out both below and hit them up directly to get your own pair.
