When you hear about Nike running sneakers, what’s the first thing that comes to your mind? Isn’t is that the Lunar or Free are the first things that you get associated to? This is because Nike is known with its runners wearing either the Lunar or Free technologies. However, this next running shoe uses neither of the above-mentioned breakthroughs but a very simple construction that can be classified as low profile.

The Nike Roshe Run is one of the simplest running forms that have been equipped with only a breathable upper that’s made of mesh and a sole unit that’s not even an Air Max-fused but with an appealing feature. Nike brings a black over siren red colorway wherein it appears to be like a cotton candy, sweet and sugary. In a brief description, this Roshe Run is designed with an average comfort feel and minimalist style.

If you love the uncomplicated motif, the Roshe Run is an ideal pair for a lightweight running.

It was like a piece of hot cake when the Nike Air Royal first hit the shelves. This is due to its unique construction that mostly appeared in monochromatic color scheme. However, that was the Air Royal Mid VT version, but yet the same line of Air Royal has been unveiled by Nike which is the Nike Air Royal Desert Boot.

This may be of different approach but the Air Royal spirit is being obvious especially on the upper that comes in a monotonous shade. Being a boot in appearance, this shoe proudly brings a truly boot look with the suede upper that’s graced with perforated lines slanted along the mid area. Nike branding including Swoosh are embossed tonally at respective points, while the bottom is fused with the infamous Nike crepe sole.

For this upcoming season, Nike sets to drop two colorways of the said Air Royal Desert Boot – tan and black – both answered the call for neutrality and simplicity.

After Jeremy Scott flooded the adidas shelf with his crafty designs, the Three Stripes brand made an awesome turning point by re-introducing a silhouette that has long been lying in the vault, the Malmö. The adidas Malmö has a design based on a Scandinavian city (Malmö), Sweden’s largest city by population, after Stockholm and Gothenburg.

In a sneaker form, the city of Malmö has been illustrated in a colorway that speaks more of being noble with a base that is made up of royal blue suede flaunting leather accent that comes in green making up the Three Stripes emblem along the side, tongue branding, and the heel tab. The simple figure of the Malmö is also evident with the off-white classic sole unit and the provision of round lace.

With not much putting this shoe into a Scandinavian context, we can conclude that it is indeed among the most versatile models of the Three Stripes brand which sees more potential color schemes in the future.

Sneakerheads called it the most durable Air Jordan model and it was perhaps among Michael Jordan’s favorites during his court era. This is the Air Jordan 12, a silhouette with a design that is inspired by the Japanese rising sun as shown on the meticulous stitching on the upper particularly along the lace panels through the heel.

Today, the Air Jordan 12 is taking off with another retro version that is more likely similar to the OG colorway where it wears black and white leather combination that sports a true red accent from the Jumpman logo, heel pull tab and spine, and the number “23” found on the rear portion of the midsole.

Truly, this is one amazing re-appearance of the Air Jordan 12 which was once a legend and now an iconic piece. As we wait for its official release, the brand gives preview with the exact specification that we will be expecting from the pack. A pair will retail at $160.

Once you engage in the Nike Bespoke course you are believed to have a strong art background or an influential individual that can take a challenge worth almost a thousand dollars. Today’s featured Bespoke person is JD Beltran, an award-winning artist based in San Francisco, CA whose conceptual work and interdisciplinary practice bridges the narrative and the abstract while investigating the manner in which materials convey stories. Among Beltran’s famous works is the Portrait Doll Series that explores the sculptural medium of the doll.

Sharing some talents in her field, JD Beltran has touched a pair of Nike Air Force 1s for another astonishing piece that simply resembles her own remarkable work. By implementing black nubuck leather on the mudguard, she left the entire side panel and toe box for grey suede and grey denim for the heel. A hit of pastel and bright tones are obviously invading the Swoosh while bright yellow eyelets are making a good attraction while on top. Beltran also cross-stitched the toe area with pastel blue and finally dressed up the tongue in purple. To complete the pack, she applied translucent grey midsole with red/orange outer sole.

Everything is done and off is another Bespoke masterpiece!
