Nike ST Charge “Blue Flame” Features A Wild Sculpted Shell

The Nike ST Charge “Blue Flame” is scheduled to release in Summer 2026 through Nike.com and select retailers.

Deep navy covers much of the shoe, but the knitted upper shifts through electric blue, purple, and mint green in loose, flame-like waves. Black laces run through dark metallic hardware, keeping the focus on the upper’s changing colors.

The ST Charge is built around a jagged molded shell that nearly swallows the silhouette. Its layered ridges wrap the toe, continue along both sides, and climb around the heel. Metallic Swooshes finish the sides, with a different look on each one.

Mint green padding brightens the collar, while mismatched tongue badges add another detail up front. Nike also places “Street Tough” branding on the black heel pull tabs and works raised graphics into the sculpted rear section.

A translucent purple outsole completes the Nike ST Charge “Blue Flame,” matching the cooler tones found across the knit. The pair arrives during Summer 2026, with additional release information expected as the launch gets closer.

adidas Climacool Laced “Solar Turbo” Releases July 2026

The adidas Climacool Laced “Solar Turbo” will release July 1, 2026, through adidas.com and select retailers. The retail price is set at $170.

Solar Turbo pink fills nearly the entire shoe, putting more attention on its 3D-printed construction. The upper is made from a series of molded lines that curve around the foot and leave open spaces throughout.

Black shows up where the design needs some separation. It covers the laces, tongue, Three Stripes, heel piece, and rubber outsole. The branding rests directly over the pink framework on each side, while a dense grid pattern runs across the bottom for traction.

The Climacool Laced has more in common with adidas’ experimental footwear than a standard lifestyle sneaker. Its exposed build is already the main visual, so the simple pink-and-black palette does not need much else added.

The adidas Climacool Laced “Solar Turbo” arrives July 1, 2026, for $170 at adidas.com and participating retailers.

adidas Harden 10 “Black & Blue Gradient” Arrives With An Ombré Finish

James Harden’s tenth signature adidas shoe is adding a “Black & Blue Gradient” colorway to its Fall 2026 lineup. The adidas Harden 10 will retail for $160 and release through adidas.com and select adidas Basketball retailers.

Metallic cobalt covers the toe before fading into navy and black toward the heel. The transition gives the molded upper more depth than the flooded and two-tone styles previously seen on the Harden 10, while bright blue wraps the lower portion of the shoe and continues across the sole.

Concentric ridges sweep across both sides of the upper, reinforcing the model’s sculpted, futuristic shape. Most of the lacing sits beneath the shell, leaving only a black textile section exposed through the center. A sock-like collar and pull tabs at the front and back help with entry, while small perforations near the toe provide ventilation.

Reflective accents introduce a hidden detail that becomes visible under direct light. A silver adidas mark appears beside the lace opening, with another reflective panel placed at the heel. Under normal lighting, those elements stay understated and let the blue-to-black fade remain the main visual feature.

Bright blue rubber covers the outsole, which uses circular traction patterns beneath the forefoot and heel.

The adidas Harden 10 “Black & Blue Gradient” is scheduled to release in Fall 2026 for $160. Pairs will be available through adidas.com and select retailers.

Nike Air Force 1 ’01 “NYC” Pre-Orders Open June 18th

UPDATE 6/17/26: The Nike Air Force 1 ’01 “NYC” will be available for pre-order tomorrow, June 18th, at 10 AM ET through select boutiques and SNKRS.

The release keeps the 2001 shape with a slimmer toe box, thick white leather, mismatched Brilliant Orange and Rush Blue Swooshes, a new “2026” NYC Attack logo, and custom sockliners.

Expected retailers include Kith, City Jeans, Sneaker Room, Awake New York, and Packer Shoes. Orders are expected to ship in October 2026.

Original Story 6/17/26:
The Nike Air Force 1 Low ’01 “NYC Knicks” is the latest release tied to the New York Knicks and their 2026 championship season. Nike has not announced a release date yet, but the pair is expected to retail for $140.

White leather handles most of the upper, leaving the Knicks colors to the Swooshes. Blue and orange alternate from side to side, giving the shoe a team-inspired look without turning every panel into a direct uniform reference.

Nike NYC tags are placed on the tongues. On the heels of the sneakers is embroidered “2026” lettering inspired by John Jay’s signature Nike NYC logo. This will help connect the championship detail to the city.

The insoles carry the most specific reference. A heavily pixelated image of Madison Square Garden stretches across the footbeds, joined by Nike NYC and 2026 graphics. It points back to the arena that sat at the center of New York’s title run.

The Nike Air Force 1 Low ’01 “NYC Knicks” drops Summer 2026. More Knicks-themed footwear and apparel may surface through the summer, while this pair still waits on an official launch date.

Allan Houston Pulls Out Rare Nike PEs Ahead of Knicks Championship Parade

Allan Houston may have already found the right sneakers for the New York Knicks’ championship parade through Manhattan on June 18th.

The former Knicks guard recently dug into his archives to showcase several rare Nike Player Exclusives. Highlights from the collection included Knicks-themed editions of the Nike Air Vis Zoom Uptempo, Air Flightposite One, Air Flightposite III, Shox Limitless, and Air Zoom Huarache 2K4.

Nike made each pair custom for Houston during his time in the league. These colorways never hit shelves, making them unique sneakers that capture both his time with New York and a significant era for Nike Basketball.

Houston played nine seasons with the Knicks before transitioning into the front office, where he currently works as Vice President of Player Leadership and Development. Though it’s unlikely he’ll pass up the chance to take part in the team’s first parade celebration, he has yet to speak on what he’ll wear down Broadway.

Showing out in one of the vintage PEs would make for one seamless connection to past Knicks eras. We have to remember that these shoes are well over 20-years-old at this point, however. Age is the enemy of any sneaker collector and wearing pairs from that far back can often lead to damage.

Foam loves to crumble, midsoles can tear away from outsoles, and older sneakers often just crack at the worst times. Houston may not risk some of his rarest sneakers for the parade because of that chance.

It would be amazing to see him sport one briefly (imagine the buzz along the Canyon of Heroes!), but keeping the originals pristine is likely a higher priority than bringing them back for everyday wear.

Whether Houston wears one of the Nike PEs or simply keeps them on display, the archive offers a rare look at his Knicks footwear history ahead of the June 18th parade.

Nike Caitlin 1 “Racer Blue” Releases October 1st

Nike Basketball has announced the Nike Caitlin 1, Caitlin Clark’s debut signature shoe. The first “Racer Blue” release is set for October 1, 2026, with a price tag of $140.

Clark had been dropping hints about the drop for a while before the official announcement came. She altered her Instagram handle to @caitlin1, started dropping hints, and let the fan speculation build before Nike unveiled the finished shoe.

Designed around the Indiana Fever guard’s explosive style of play, the Caitlin 1 features a low-cut silhouette and newly engineered Opticast upper. Angular nodes change height across the surface of the shoe, forming abstractions of Clark’s initials and No. 22 while working to reduce drag. Clark’s “CC” initials are subtly referenced by the overlapping Swooshes, and her own logo is found on the tongue.

On the sole unit, Nike combined a Cushlon midsole with forefoot Air Zoom Turbo cushioning. This should help with quick directional movements, explosive speed and long-distance shooting.

The outsole carries several messages tied to her career, including “Shoot More Threes,” “From Anywhere” and “It was never a long shot.” Those phrases bring a personal side to the performance design without taking attention away from the shoe itself.

Nike is also dropping an 18-piece collection dedicated to Caitlin Clark, featuring their Standard Issue and Aero-FIT performance gear. We have yet to see any official images of the apparel.

Nike Caitlin 1 Racer Blue Release Date

The Nike Caitlin 1 “Racer Blue” will release October 1, 2026 via Nike.com and Nike Basketball retailers. Available in unisex sizing, the shoe will cost $140.

Nike SB Dunk Low “Green Noise/Watermelon” Comes With Classic Spurs Colors

UPDATE 6/17/26: Official pictures of the Nike SB Dunk Low in “Green Noise/Watermelon/Light Curry” have appeared now that the shoes are making their way to skate shops abroad. Even though a U.S. launch hasn’t been locked in yet, with pairs already dropping overseas, it feels like we won’t have to wait long for them to hit stateside. This color combination of green, pink, curry and black has led many to believe it’s inspired by the San Antonio Spurs City Edition uniforms or even jerseys from the 1996 NBA All-Star Game.

Original Story 5/7/26:
Nike SB has been continuing to play around with unique colorways on the Dunk Low recently, and this upcoming “Green Noise/ Watermelon” pair doesn’t disappoint. This eye-catching shoe, though lacking an official theme, boasts a blend of greens, oranges, and hot pink that evokes South Beach flair or the distinct palette of the 1996 San Antonio NBA All-Star Game.

Featuring a suede upper throughout with rich greens overlaid and orange underlays around the toe box, quarter panel, tongue and heel area of the Nike SB Dunk Low. Accents of bright pink can be found on the leather Swoosh, laces, branding on the tongue, embroidered swoosh on the heel and the outsole.

The Off Noir midsole provides a stable foundation for the striking upper, and the orange rubber outsole connects the design from heel to toe. The pair also seems to come with extra laces, offering skaters and collectors more ways to customize the release.

The Nike SB Dunk Low “Green Noise/Watermelon” is expected to release during Fall 2026 at select skate shops and Nike.com. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $120 USD.

Andrea Bergart x Nike Dunk Low Features Colorful Graphics and Metallic Charms

Now arriving at select retailers, the Andrea Bergart x Nike Dunk Low is expected to receive a wider release in Summer 2026. The collaboration is priced at $102 and currently appears to be limited to kids’ sizing, with pairs available through stores including Shiekh. Nike has not confirmed an exact launch date for Nike.com.

Bergart built her name across painting, visual art, and basketball culture, where she became known for cutting up real basketballs and rebuilding them as handmade bags. That work eventually led to an official WNBA partnership, making the Dunk a fitting choice for her first project with Nike.

Color takes over nearly every section of the shoe. Psychedelic graphics move across the upper and continue onto the midsole and outsole, giving the design a layered look from every angle. Metallic charms finish the pair and bring some of Bergart’s handmade character into the sneaker.

The Andrea Bergart x Nike Dunk Low is available now at select retailers for $102 in kids’ sizes. A broader Nike.com release is expected during Summer 2026.

adidas DON Issue 8 “Spider-Man” Releases July 17th

Donovan Mitchell’s next signature shoe goes back to a familiar superhero theme. The adidas DON Issue 8 “Spider-Man” releases July 17, 2026 through adidas.com and select retailers for $120.

Red and blue shape most of the colorway, with black used to break up the upper. Blue mesh runs across the toe and side panels, while red material shows through underneath. The overlapping layers give the shoe a web-like texture without using obvious Spider-Man graphics.

A black shroud covers the laces and extends toward the heel. Red piping traces its edge and matches the tongue, forefoot and sections of the midsole. White Three Stripes sit across the molded heel, which shifts from red into blue.

The outsole maintains the split color scheme. Red traction is up front while blue takes care of the heel. Circular treads weave throughout both zones.

There is no heavy Marvel branding here. The adidas DON Issue 8 “Spider-Man” relies on its colors, layered mesh and paneling to carry the theme. It arrives July 17, 2026 for $120.

Larry June x adidas Adistar Control 5 Gets A Retail Release

Larry June’s next adidas Adistar Control 5 will release on August 15, 2026, giving the public a chance to buy a collaboration that initially appeared to be staying within his circle.

The Bay Area rapper revealed his first version in February. Interest picked up quickly, but the shoe was later confirmed as a Friends and Family exclusive.

Grey and beige make up most of the layered upper, with green, orange, and red worked into the mesh and supporting panels. Some sections use a gradient finish, adding more color without taking away from the Adistar Control 5’s technical running shape.

Large “LARRYJUNE” branding sits on the tongue label and makes the collaboration easy to identify. The detail also gives the project a more personal feel than a standard artist colorway.

Speckled sections appear across the bulky sole, while brighter traction panels and contrasting components continue the color mix underneath. The overall look stays close to the early-2000s runner style that helped bring the Adistar Control 5 back into rotation.

The Larry June x adidas Adistar Control 5 releases August 15, 2026, through adidas.com and select retailers with a $160 price tag.

Friends x Crocs Classic Clog Available Now With Sitcom-Inspired Jibbitz

Friends and Crocs have teamed up on a Classic Clog filled with references to the sitcom. The collaboration is available now at Crocs.com for $70.

The purple Croslite upper pulls directly from Monica Geller’s apartment, one of the show’s most familiar settings. Sketch-like graphics run across the clog, mixed with lines viewers will know right away. “Joey Doesn’t Share Food!” is included, along with the “Miss Chanandler Bong!” joke.

A set of themed Jibbitz adds more details from the series, including recognizable objects, quotes, and running gags. They can be rearranged across the ventilation holes, so the layout does not have to stay the same.

Friends branding appears on the heel strap and inside the footbed. The clog itself keeps the usual Classic Clog shape and foam construction, with most of the collaboration carried by the color, printed artwork, and charms.

Crocs has released plenty of entertainment-themed pairs in recent years, but this one goes beyond placing a sitcom logo on the shoe. The references are specific, and the apartment-inspired purple gives the design an immediate connection to the show.

The Friends x Crocs Classic Clog is available now through Crocs.com for $70, with the Jibbitz charms included.

Travis Scott Debuts The Nike Caitlin 1 “Black”

The Nike Caitlin 1 arrived as Caitlin Clark’s first signature sneaker, and Travis Scott made sure it received plenty of attention during the rollout.

While unveiling his Nike Caitlin 1 shoe, Travis Scott was seen rocking an all-black version of Clark’s debut shoe. With this understated palette, you can more easily appreciate the shoe’s standout design elements, like the ventilated mesh base, the prominent “CC” embellishments, and the multi-layered Swooshes on the side panels.

The choice of style effectively bridges two of Nike’s most prominent collaborators. Travis Scott was there to witness Clark shatter the NCAA women’s all-time scoring record in her last game for Iowa. He also appeared alongside Clark in an early Nike commercial.

Whether this black Nike Caitlin 1 will be available to purchase in stores has yet to be determined. Nike typically creates blacked-out versions of wear-test samples while developing sneakers, so it’s possible Scott was sporting an early prototype of the shoe.

However, a “Black/Metallic Silver/Racer Blue” Nike Caitlin 1 has reportedly been slated for the model’s future releases. With this in mind, one could infer that the Travis Scott pair is actually an initial look at that colorway.

The Nike Caitlin 1 is expected to begin releasing in October 2026. Nike has not yet announced launch details for the “Black” edition.

Caitlin Clark Debuts The Nike Caitlin 1 Signature Shoe

Caitlin Clark has officially unveiled her Nike Caitlin 1 after a week of strategic hints on her Instagram account.

Clark dropped her new handle “caitlin1” before cycling through different images of the Nike Caitlin 1 sneaker highlighting various elements of the design. She shared another image with her followers on Instagram this morning to officially debut her first signature shoe.

The Nike Caitlin 1 showcases a low-top design with a sleek silhouette that bears resemblance to the Kobe 5 and Kobe 6. Those are two sneakers Clark frequently sports during games. Among the early images, multiple color options were presented, notably a black and chrome edition worn by Travis Scott. A neon green and red version of the shoe, similar to the signature “Grinch” colorway, is spotted in the background.

Details on the Nike Caitlin 1 connect back to Clark herself. The lateral side features layered Nike Swooshes that create a hidden “CC”. Small raised TPU pieces on the upper take the shape of small C’s. Their depth changes throughout the design, creating a rippling wave effect.

The medial side transitions to a classic Swoosh and swaps out the C-shaped elements for tiny number 2 graphics, a nod to Clark’s jersey number. Her signature “CC” logo can also be found towards the midfoot. Zoom Air cushioning can be found underfoot for a performance ready silhouette designed for the court.

Nike Caitlin 1 Release Date

The Nike Caitlin 1 will officially release on October 1, 2026, through Nike.com and select Nike Basketball retailers. The “Racer Blue” colorway is expected to lead the rollout.

Adult sizing will retail for $140, followed by grade-school pairs at $115 and preschool sizes at $105.

Nike Dunk Low “Pink Flowers” Blooms For Summer 2026

Nike is adding a flower-covered Dunk Low to its Summer 2026 lineup. The Nike Dunk Low “Pink Flowers” will release in women’s sizing, dressed in a Pink Foam, Sail, and Pink Rise colorway. Nike.com and select retailers are expected to carry the pair, though pricing and an exact date have not been announced.

Sail suede builds the base, giving the different pink shades more room to stand out. Pink overlays wrap the toe, eyestays, and heel, while the Swooshes use a glossier finish than the rest of the upper. The same color family continues across the lining and rubber outsole. A Sail midsole keeps the shoe from becoming entirely pink.

The flowers are not printed or embroidered. Small raised attachments sit across the side panels and continue toward the heel, each finished with a metallic center. That detail changes the look of the shoe without taking away from Peter Moore’s familiar Dunk Low shape.

Satin ribbon laces replace the standard flat laces and fit the decorative direction of the release.

The women’s Nike Dunk Low “Pink Flowers” arrives during Summer 2026. More release information should surface closer to launch.

adidas Harden 10 “Pink Lemonade” Releases July 2026

James Harden is bringing the “Pink Lemonade” colorway back on the adidas Harden Vol 10. He first wore the shoe during Game 3 of the 2026 Eastern Conference semifinals, with a wider release scheduled for July 11 at $160.

A light metallic pink finish covers most of the shoe, including the one-piece toe, molded side panels and midsole. It gives the Vol. 10 a nearly tonal look while leaving the model’s wavy, sculpted shape easy to see.

Black fills in the inner bootie, eyestays and Three Stripes branding near the heel. Yellow is used more sparingly, appearing on the lace tips and through the perforations across the vamp. The heel counter is reflective, adding a detail that stays fairly subtle until light hits it.

The color theme last appeared on the adidas Harden Vol. 4, so this marks its return after several years away from the line. The Vol. 10 version keeps the familiar pink, black and yellow combination but applies it to a much different build.

Look for the adidas Harden 10 “Pink Lemonade” on July 11, 2026, in men’s sizing. The shoe will be sold through adidas.com and select adidas Basketball retailers for $160.

The Air Jordan 1 Mid Gets Another “Chicago Bulls” Colorway

A Black, White, and University Red Air Jordan 1 Mid is joining Jordan Brand’s Summer 2026 lineup. The Bulls-inspired pair will be available through Nike.com and select retailers for $130.

The upper stays mostly black, with leather covering the toe box, side panels, overlays, and ankle collar. Black laces, tongues, and lining keep that look consistent, while red is reserved for the shoe’s main branding.

University Red fills the Swooshes and appears again on the Wings logos, tongue labels, and rubber outsole. The only white comes through the midsole, giving the darker build some separation. Black insoles with red Jumpman logos finish the pair.

It uses familiar Chicago colors without copying traditional “Chicago” blocking. Rather than building around white leather, this Air Jordan 1 Mid puts black across nearly the full upper and lets the red details carry the Bulls reference.

The Air Jordan 1 Mid “Black/University Red” releases in Summer 2026 through Nike.com and participating Jordan Brand retailers, with a $130 price tag.
