Nike Dunk Low Covered in Black Croc Skin

Nike is still finding new ways to experiment with the Dunk Low as the silhouette nears its 40th Anniversary. After the recent “Green Croc” rendition, the brand is again turning up the flair in a more upscale direction with the upcoming Nike Dunk Low “Black Croc Skin” for Fall 2025.

The upcoming “Black Croc Skin” pairs come fully clad in black with the brand swapping out regular leather for croc-embossed faux leather on the upper. The Swooshes and heel tabs are executed in tonal suede for a matte contrast to the gloss while embroidered gold Nike branding is featured as a touch of refinement on the tongue and rear. The sole unit is fully black for a clean finish.

The Dunk may no longer be at the height of its hype but runs like this prove that Nike is still going hard in creative material usage. The croc print is aggressive but also luxurious making it a perfect fit for those wanting something to stand out without bright colors.

The detail on the “Green Croc” drop was already an interesting look but this black take may feel even more versatile for everyday wear.

The Nike Dunk Low “Black Croc Skin” will release for Fall 2025 via Nike Sportswear retail locations and Nike.com.

Nike Air Max Plus Inspired By The Azulejo Ceramics of Lisboa

Nike is celebrating Lisbon’s rich culture and vibrant energy with the Air Max Plus “Lisboa”. The new design is dropping in Fall 2025. It boasts graphics that are based on azulejo tilework, which is traditional Portuguese blue-and-white ceramic tilework.

The upper features those ornate patterns, with a blue-and-white color palette that looks both refined and timeless. It’s offset by a golden Swoosh and the city name written on the tongue.

The translucent sole plate also has a tiled print that’s similar to the one on the upper. It’s a fun little touch that unifies the theme. There’s also a jewel badge on the tongue that’s a reference to Lisbon’s flag. It swaps the city’s coat of arms for Nike’s Swoosh emblem.

Blue midfoot shanks and the iconic Tuned Air cushioning also finish off the silhouette. The result is a modern sneaker that wears its cultural heritage proudly.

The Nike Air Max Plus “Lisboa” releases Fall 2025 online at Nike.com and at select retailers. There is also a possibility that this pair is a Portugal exclusive.

The Nike Air More Uptempo Low Goes “Triple Black” For Fall 2025

The Nike Air More Uptempo Low is set to return for Fall 2025, but with a key difference. The classic silhouette has been given a blackout treatment that quiet’s its color palette down while giving the sneaker an improved build.

Ballistic nylon has been used on the upper to add some texture and toughness to the overall package. The “AIR” branding is now integrated into the upper for a more stealthy appearance. Expect to also see some reflective details and see-through Air cushioning.

The use of ballistic nylon here gives it a new spin. It also allows the sneaker to be more versatile for regular wear. The toned down color scheme won’t lose any of its style cred.

The Nike Air More Uptempo Low “Black” will be available in Fall 2025 for $160 USD at Nike.com and select retailers.

A more subdued offering of this bold silhouette is one for true Uptempo fans. It’s loud in size and shape but lowkey in its choice of colors.

FIRST LOOK: Jordan Trunner O/S “Cave Stone” (2025)

Jordan Brand is taking it to the streets and beyond again with the latest Jordan Trunner O/S. The new lifestyle and cross-training silhouette further expands Jordan Brand’s off-court offerings—and the upcoming “Cave Stone” colorway paves the way for Fall 2025.

Donning the shoe of a new, modern take on the Jordan Trunner, the O/S model is constructed with layered suede, breathable mesh, and an over-sized rubber sole that pays homage to old-school runners like the New Balance 990v6. For an extra pop of design, the O/S also features a sculpted TPU shank at the midfoot for more stability and style.

True to its earthy name, the “Cave Stone” colorway favors a tonal aesthetic. Tonal suede overlays are matched to brown mesh and a greyish-tan “Moon Particle” midsole, while “Ridgerock” accents are speckled around the interior. Coming full circle, reflective silver details on the heel add visibility and a dose of Jumpman heritage.

The “Cave Stone” colorway name is also shared with the upcoming Air Jordan 4 “Cave Stone” that’s set to launch in September.

The Jordan Trunner O/S “Cave Stone” will be released sometime between August and September 2025, available at select Jordan Brand retailers and Nike.com for $115 USD.

Jordan Hydro Slides Match The Returning Air Jordan 11 “Gamma”

The Jordan Hydro 11 Slides “Gamma” takes the playful color palette from the returning Air Jordan 11 “Gamma Blue”. Released in 2013, the sneaker sports one of the most recognizable non-retro colorways in the Air Jordan 11 series. These slides recapture the same magic in a more comfortable silhouette.

The pair features the iconic Black, Gamma Blue, and Varsity Maize color scheme. A glossy patent leather sheath covers the midsole. A vibrant Gamma Blue Jumpman adorns the strap, and a contrasting footbed provides extra visual flair. Yellow accents the strap’s “23” and the heel’s license plate.

From a functional standpoint, these slides include a pressure point footbed for cushioning and an adjustable velcro strap to secure the fit. The outsole features a multi-directional tread for added traction. Perfect for recovery or post-game lounging, these slides are a casual shoe.

Nike A’One “#1 Draft Pick” Honors A’ja Wilson’s Iconic Pink Suit

Nike is commemorating one of the most iconic moments in WNBA history. Inspired by A’ja Wilson’s legendary pink ensemble worn during the 2018 WNBA Draft, the brand is releasing a new colorway of her signature sneaker—the Nike A’One “#1 Draft Pick”.

The Nike A’One pays homage to Wilson’s selection at #1 overall by the Las Vegas Aces during the draft. The look channels the same sensuality and power displayed by Wilson’s stunning one-piece ensemble on that historic day. Flowing pearlized overlays on the upper are layered in two different pinks, transitioning from a dark to light hue. White patent leather accents and metallic pink trim add a polished finish. The sneaker sports a hooper-ready silhouette that will make an impression away from the court as well.

Additional personal touches on the sneaker include A’ja’s name written on the heel and signature crown and “dominance” branding on the insole and outsole, respectively. Another highlight of the design is a special handwritten quote around the midsole that reads: “Weakness? We don’t got time for that.”

The Nike A’One “#1 Draft Pick” will be available August 8, 2025 in adult size for $115 USD and grade school size for $90 USD, at Nike Basketball retailers and Nike.com.

Nike Ja 3 “Mink Brown” Releases October 2025

Nike is keeping Ja Morant’s third signature silhouette rolling with a spruced-up new colorway—the Nike Ja 3 “Mink Brown”. This new take on the Ja 3 opts for a more subdued color palette than previous releases.

The upper sports two tones of mink brown while each side of the shoe is accented by Pink Foam Swooshes. The latest pair is definitely a step back from the more flamboyant Ja 3 colorways like “NY vs. NY” or “Turbo Green”. Instead, it plays things in a more muted fashion. Signature visual elements still pepper the design though. Claw marks are scattered across the upper, while “TWELVE” is embroidered on the heel.

ZoomX foam makes a return underfoot to anchor the Ja 3’s performance aspects. The ZoomX foam provides both a lightweight cushion and responsiveness needed by fast-breaking guards. On the ground, the jagged outsole tread provides a secure grip for all-around court movement.

The Mink Brown colorway eschews heavy narrative in favor of a more neutral tone on tone design. It’s a nice change of pace, and makes for a very approachable look for all types of hoopers. The muted soft pink complements the mocha tones and makes for an almost Neapolitan-style color palette. It may be one of the more wearable of the Ja 3 series, to date.

Nike Ja 3 Mink Brown Release Date

The Nike Ja 3 “Mink Brown” will drop on October 18, 2025 at select Nike Basketball retailers and at Nike.com. Retail price is set at $125 USD.

Nike Ja 3 “Turbo Green” Releases November 2025

Nike Basketball is getting festive with a holiday-ready release of the Nike Ja 3 “Turbo Green”, a new colorway added to Ja Morant’s signature collection. The high-performance sneaker arrives in time for the end-of-year festivities with an aesthetically sharp look.

The primary hue of the upper is Turbo Green, with textured logo graphics in black scattered throughout. The side and outsole are both wrapped in a contrasting University Red Swoosh for visual pop. Matching red embroidery on the heel reads “TWELVE,” a reference to Morant’s jersey number.

ZoomX foam from Nike sits below the foot, providing maximum responsiveness and energy return. The Ja 3 remains one of the more bouncy basketball shoes on the market thanks to this feature. Meanwhile, the outsole tread pattern provides multidirectional traction for swift cuts and explosive maneuvers.

Morant’s signature line has been a consistently strong product with a nice balance of performance technology and personal narrative. This latest iteration lands at a perfect time with a festive color scheme and aggressive ZoomX construction.

Nike Air Max Plus Gets A Tiffany & Co. Colorway

Nike is channeling minimal energy into the Fall 2025 season with a sleek new take on the Air Max Plus. Named the “Tiffany” colorway, the sneakers rely on all-black mesh and synthetic upper for a low-key, understated foundation.

Cool mint green accents bring the fresh energy. It shows up on a mini Swoosh on the lateral side, gradient hues on the midfoot arch and colorful touches on the outsole that pay homage to the iconic Tiffany & Co. design language.

This Air Max Plus isn’t one of the massive sneaker’s more loud and over-the-top releases. In fact, it’s refreshingly minimal, but still packs a bit of style – just in a more low-key way.

The performance upgrades are unchanged, as the signature tuned Air cushioning system continues to bring both comfort and support. Yellow “TN” branding at the heel and the visible Air units also keep it recognizable to the silhouette’s identity.

Retailing at $180 USD, the Nike Air Max Plus “Tiffany” will be available Fall 2025. Shop the shoes at Nike.com and at select retailers across the country.

Tyrese Haliburton Previews Upcoming PUMA Hali 1 Colorways

While recovering from an Achilles injury, Tyrese Haliburton is already generating some buzz for his first signature shoe from PUMA—the PUMA Hali 1.

In a new photo shared by designer Salehe Bembury, Haliburton lounges on the couch with a cast on his foot while surrounded by an early collection of the PUMA Hali 1. Colorways featured are all in bold shades with lime green, bright blue, hot pink, and pastel peach options. A standout shoe featured electric blue alongside slime green, which looks reminiscent of Mike and Sulley from Monsters, Inc.

The tech specs and cushioning are currently unknown, but Haliburton’s shoe has a confident and futuristic feel. The silhouette also looks lightweight and features sculpted midsoles and oversized textures, which are familiar to previous shoes Bembury has created.

The PUMA Hali 1 is another addition to the basketball brand’s steadily growing collection of signature shoes, including others from LaMelo Ball and Scoot Henderson. But what makes this one unique is Haliburton’s creative direction and Salehe’s aesthetic.

Expect the PUMA Hali 1 to launch in September 2025, with more details to come on pricing and exact release date.

Nike Air Max 95 OG “Blue Spark” Releases August 2025

Nike continues to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the Air Max 95 with a bold return of the Nike Air Max 95 OG Blue Spark. Scheduled to release in August 2025, this classic runner revisits a beloved colorway with subtle yet smart updates.

Nike Air Max 95 OG Blue Spark (2011 Release)

Instead of the traditional neon accents, this 2025 version highlights vibrant Blue Spark detailing. The layered suede upper keeps the original gradient grey fade intact, while bright blue lace loops and a matching mini Swoosh add contrast. A black sole and visible Air units complete the retro-inspired aesthetic.

While similar makeups like the 2010 “Photo Blue” and 2011’s “Blue Spark” exist, this release introduces Nike’s big bubble design. This tweak makes the silhouette roomier and more faithful to the 1995 original. Fans of the OG build will appreciate this modern homage to a classic.

The return of the “Blue Spark” Air Max 95 fits nicely into Nike’s 2025 celebration lineup. This release not only highlights the timeless style of the Air Max 95 but also reaffirms its cultural impact.

Nike Air Max 95 Blue Spark 2025 Release Date

The Nike Air Max 95 OG “Blue Spark” releases on August 8, 2025 at select Nike Sportswear retailers and Nike.com. Priced at $190 USD, the shoe will be available in men’s sizing.

However, the shoe will now feature Nike’s Big Bubble cushioning, resulting in a more streamlined shape and added comfort. This update nods to the fan-favorite 2011 “Blue Spark” while refreshing the tech.

Slated to release August 8th, 2025, and retailing at $190, the “Blue Spark” Air Max 95 will deliver a nostalgic aesthetic with some new twists.

Jordan Trunner O/S “University Red” Officially Revealed

This week at Eagles training camp, Jalen Hurts debuted in his upcoming Jordan Trunner O/S “University Red”.

Presenting a massive tonal red color palette and thick Y2K-inspired profile, the updated silhouette mixes utility and comfort with an off-season vibe that harkens back to Jordan Brand’s early aughts DNA.

“The University Red” colorway is as brash and confident as they come. Wrapping a breathable mesh base, suede overlays cover the upper while molded side cages and reflective accents provide structure and visual interest. Meanwhile, a thick and sculpted midsole provides tons of support, no matter if you’re getting your grind on or just grinding it out. Jumpman branding and “Jordan” text is strategically placed down the midfoot, without getting too in your face.

This is the fourth known colorway of the updated Trunner O/S, following the likes of “Cave Stone”, “Brown”, and “Pink”. With the release of this retro-future take, Jordan Brand continues its recent movement into out-of-time silhouettes that defy categorization.

Nike Pegasus Premium Revamped With Muted “Silt Red/Particle Rose”

Nike adds another colorway to the Pegasus Premium this Fall 2025 with the brand’s “Silt Red/Particle Rose” colorway. This pair is a high-tech trainer with a more upscale lifestyle vibe.

The upper is a circular knit construction with a semi-translucent sheen, and is coated in a muted silt red tone. The padded tongue, liner, and laces all share the same silt red color as well. Particle rose accents add some contrast to the toe, midfoot, and medial Swooshes, but it’s subtle and not in-your-face.

Nike did not skimp on the cushioning in this model. This trainer offers ZoomX foam from heel to toe, with ReactX foam in the heel as well. A molded full-length Zoom Air unit provides a little extra responsiveness as well. Beetroot pink Air unit on the sidewall pops with a pink rubber outsole.

You can find the Nike Pegasus Premium “Silt Red/Particle Rose” on retailers and Nike.com starting Fall 2025 for $220 USD.

The new colorway is a bit more “lifestyle” than previous Pegasus drops, but still doesn’t compromise on performance. It’s a sneaker you can throw on for a long run or everyday use or really anything in between.
