This Nike Air Foamposite One started its life as a rarely seen PE on the feet of one Mr. Anfernee Hardaway back in 1997 and it appears in 2023 you may have a chance at them, as they are coming to retail. Based on vintage images, they will sport a white Foamposite upper paired with black leather on the eyerow. Black also appears on the tongue, laces, pull tabs and the inner. Underneath resides a translucent rubber outsole. As it currently stands, this Air Foamposite One is planned to debut…

“Prelude” Nike Zoom Kobe VI could be on the way
The ”Prelude” Kobe VI was part of an eight shoe lineup , that was very hard to get ( an unfortunate indicator of the direction Nike would foolishly take the line in), in the build up to the launch of the Kobe 9, an amazing shoe, both on an off the court. The snakeskin-textured upper of the ”Prelude” VI sports a graffiti design that is inspired by Kobe’s Venice neighborhood. Volt Swooshes adorn the lateral and medial sides ; the same is also presnt on the Kobe logo on the…
Read More“Metallic Red” Nike Air Foamposite One returning in 2023
When it originally released back in 2012, the ”Metallic Red” was very well-received. A subsequent second retail run in 2017 was absolutely botched by Nike in that the numbers were daftly limited. It now appears they will make another comeback in 2023. At this early juncture there are no images but it should be a fairly reproduction of its forbears, we hope, in that it will sport a red Foamposite upper with black nubuck at the eyerows. Black also shows up on the tongue and inner with a One Cent…

Black shows up on the Swoosh on the toe, inner, rear pull tab and tongue. Underneath resides a white midsole with football grey oblong and oval semi orbs, as…
Read MoreAn initial look at the ”Cobalt Bliss” Nike Air More Uptempo
I have been an unabashed critic of the over saturation and bastardization of the Nike Air More Uptempo with colorways both unwanted nor needed. If Nike just released the original two colorways ( black/white and Olympic) in a method that allowed for the people who actually wanted them to easily access them, they would be printing money( even moreso than they are currently). With that being said, there is another colorway of the More Uptempo on the horizon, and while once again, these were not a requested sneaker , they…

One of the upcoming colourways is the one picture below. It sports a grey leather foundational layer overlaid with a hue that appears to be similar to that of sherwood tan at the toe, eye rows and wrapping the lower heel. Sail Swooshes adorn the lateral and medial sides. Tan shows up at the inner with Nike branding present on both…
Read More“Nikola Jokic” Nike Hyperdunk X
Though the Hyperdunk X was released back in 2018, it is still seen on NBA courts, most notably on the feet of Timberwolves All-Star Karl-Anthony Towns and back-to-back reigning, defending MVP Nikola Jokić. This upcoming iteration of the Hyperdunk X was designed with the latter in mind. It sports a textile upper with blue Swooshes present on the lateral midfoot and medial ankle.
