Following up on the Volt-based debut, the Nike LunarFlash+ arrives in a second colorway. These also rely heavily upon a black/tonal grey pairing, but utilize a different blocking pattern that puts the Total Crimson pop into a supporting role. This highly breathable LunarLon runner gives you the performance and good looks to keep training even as the summertime reaches its peak, and you’ll find the LunarFlash available at select retailers like Kith.

Borrowing on a style originated by a model named for a Mexican chili pepper, this new release from Onitsuka Tiger takes its name from Brazil’s most famous peak. The Onitsuka Tiger Corcovado lends modern tech to the classic silhouette, its moniker connecting with further beauty by way of Rio de Janiero’s landmark Cristo Redentor statue. Fans of sleek old school runners like the 1970s Nikes, classic New Balances ending in -20 or even Onitsuka’s own Corsair will welcome these with open arms, and you can see the first two colorways after the jump.

Joining a couple other adidas Originals ZX 750s that just arrived at retail is another that utilizes a different blocking template.

This accent really pops from a grey/black base, but using a straightforward primary shade means these still have a classic vibe to them. Check out more shots below, then grab yours from Eastbay.

The recently introduced Mach Force is a 2012 debut that hearkens back to late 80s basketball aesthetics. Given the overlap in its name, you might think the Nike Mach Runner is a similar kind of faux-retro, but that’s only because it’s been out of circulation for something like a decade. In fact, the Mach Runner is one of the original Nike running shoes, a 1976 release that makes a triumphant return in an OG-ish colorway combining white, Neutral Grey and Royal Blue. More good news from Nike Sportswear for the suede and mesh faithful, this Mach Runner is up for grabs at stores like Rock City Kicks.
