The latest Nike Free Run+ 2 EXTs for women is 90% blue, but that doesn’t tell the whole story. This new Light Blue and Hyper Blue mix adds texture by way of a tumbled texture on the nubuck exoskeleton, while the Sail ‘ligaments’ break up the sides nicely, adding more depth. The way this upper does so much with such a tight range of colors is echoed on the midsole, where unless you took a good look, you might not even notice the subtle gradient from a darker toe to lighter heel. Click through, take a second to appreciate the skill evident in this combination and grab yours at shops like Oneness.

Leopard print has become such a ubiquitous design option that we’re beginning to see it on more than just the NSW footwear releases, but the strict running models like the Nike LunarSpider R4. This sample features a bold volt green and black combo with the leopard print taking over the mesh upper, with the alternating Volt and Black Dynamic Flywire giving the sneaker even more of that high-tech look. Do you like seeing these types of prints on performance models, or would you prefer them to stay on streetwear styles? These are just a sample for now so there hasn’t been a confirmation of a release just yet, but check out the gallery below and stay tuned to Sneaker News for more updates.

Its name prominently spelled out in bold capital letters across the sides, the Saucony Courageous was a perfect canvas for bold high-contrast colorways and neck-breaking collaborations in the mid-late ’00s. Here we see the Japanese label responsible for reimagining the Jazz O last year take a 180 and apply arguably the model’s subtlest colorways to date. The White Moutaineering x Saucony Courageous trio emphasizes premium suede and leather with carefully blocked tonal colorways. A leather sockliner befits this luxurious collab, and a $300+ pricetag reflects the ultra premium materials you can add to your collection right now at End.

The Nike Air Max 95 Dynamic Flywire is a do-it-all shoe. It’s got the iconic good looks of Sergio Lozano’s AM95s, a design that’s been a casual standard for the better part of two decades. This silo carries with it a performance running heritage supported by new tech including the namesake Flywire cables and a full-length Max Air cushion. Air Max 95 DF has given us a variety of colorways ranging from exuberant to the traditional gradient style, and can even go so far as to strip out any accent colors on that classic template as evidenced by this dope new white/grey/black pair. These should be hitting US retailers shortly so stick with Sneaker News for updates and enjoy a few more images in the meantime.

Nike Sportswear gave us OG versions of a variety of classic Air Max runners this spring, including Air Max 90 and Air 180. If you happened to wonder what would happen if these originals blended together, this newest Nike Air Max 90 revelation happens to do just that. This white AM90 adds Hyper Blue and Hyper Red accents to arrive in the neighborhood of the original ‘Ultramarine’ 180s, a look that will no doubt lead to swift sales as these begin releasing around Europe. It’s not immediately clear if these will make it stateside, so you might want to take advantage of the fairly reasonable worldwide shipping rates available from Czech sneaker boutique Queens.

Many of the Nike Free Run+ 2 colorways we’ve seen of late have opted to add a contrasting color to the underlying ‘ligaments’. Here’s a case where it’s done on a tonal backing, but because this WMNS Free Run 2 EXT has black nubuck as its top layer, you get an appreciation for the depth created by these relative contrasts. Click through to see more of the Total Crimson/Bright Mango interplay and grab yours at Nike Sportswear retailers like Concepts.
