Nike Sportswear has established itself a formidable player in the lifestyle footwear game, pumping out products unlike its performance-driven designs and opting for selections more fitting for high-end fashion while implementing some of its most prized technological findings. The Nike Air Ralston Mid Lite is the perfect example of the marriage between style and function, as it features a design inspired by the classic desert boot and wallabee while keeping comfort in mind (that’s a Nike Free-inspired outsole supporting the upper). Premium raw suede can be found on the upper for that truly vintage yet luxurious appeal, completing a simplified look that isn’t overly basic.

Here’s another look at the upcoming Nike Free Run CMFT Viz Air 13; although it is inspired by the Nike Free Run 13 (given by the nylon upper and heeltab), you can’t help but attribute this particular colorway to the Nike Free Run 11 ‘Bred’ due to the black patent leather mudguard and the translucent red outsole. These new images shed light on a few more details of the CMFT 13 that are shared with the AJ13, like the shape of the mudguard and the heel panel. Perhaps the use of a small jewel similar to the panther eye or the ‘JORDAN’ tab found on the base of the lace placket would’ve solidified these as a true Nike Free Run 13-inspired release, but time will tell if any changes will be made.

It’s well-documented that the idea of Nike Free Run Fusions is a touchy subject with a lot of sneakerheads, but in this case, some of you might have a slightly better reaction to this Nike Free Run 5.0 V1 latest Nike Free Run hybrid. This remote controlled Camaro has been customized to take on the characteristics of the Fire Red Nike Free Run 3, from the layout and color-blocking, right down to some panels of Elephant print wrapping around the hood and trunk areas. This is not the first time that the similarities between car and sneaker design has been so evident, but this example certainly shows off a pretty seamless transition. To really make this concept legit, actual laces have been included across the roof section and even a mock Nike Free Run hangtag has been created with the Jumpman logo holding a Chevy symbol instead of a basketball.

Black and Yellow has been owned by the LIVEstrong camp for the last few years, but with no true Jordan Brand x LIVEstrong release, we can only think of ‘Thunder and Lightning’. So had these Spiz’ike samples released (originally intended for Spring/Summer 2012), the ‘Thunder’ moniker would’ve followed suit rather seamlessly, would it not? Black/Yellow Nike Free Runs are fairly few and far in-between, so there’s no doubt these Jordan Spiz’ike ‘Thunders’ would’ve been a hot pick. You can, however, add these to your collection, because this crispy pair of size 9 samples just became available from oregonsole on stores online.
