Nike Air Max 1 QS - Microstriped Denim

The new runners out of Beaverton keep on rolling today. Here’s a new Nike Air Max 1 QS that would be right at home conducting a coal-driven train. The upper features blue and white striped denim at varying widths for a slightly disorienting tonal effect. Take a step back and they look more like tonal cobalt, and the white Swoosh, laces and midsole have do a nice job of grounding the textures. Following the texture-as-colour theme the insoles feature a quiltwork grid of as many knit patterns as you could possibly imagine. Keep it glued to Sneaker News for more info on a possible US release. via Jordan-ugg.com

Nike Air Max 90 Current TZ - Black - Blue

About a month ago, we saw a delicious pair of perforated Nike Air Max 90s in grey suede. These use the same bright blue accents, but instead of perforated suede, we see the mesh and leather treatment more common to the Air Max 90 Current. This Tier 0 (TZ) release from Nike Sportswear will surely be hard to find (and/or expensive), but you can’t argue with a look that manages to tie together nearly two decades of Nike running styles. A perfect addition to NSW’s goal of preserving the Swoosh legacy, these will drop soon. Stay tuned to Sneaker News for more info. via Jordan-ugg.com

Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke by Pete Premium Laces

You may have seen a couple of shots of these on the 21 Mercer St. blog. Our boy Pete from Premium Laces hooked up a killer Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke recently, and we have exclusive pics of the elephant printed love. At first glance, what you see is impressive enough: ultra-contrast elephant print in cement/black on the toe, eyelets and heel while silver and white hold it down on the side panel and Swoosh, respectively. A good choice on the icey sole, although we’re starting to think these things can make every Bespoke joint look dope.

In case Pete decides to rock these at night, just the right conditions reveal the side panels and tongue to have reflective 3M treatment and also show the Swoosh in it’s patent leather loveliness. Lacelocks imprinted with Pete’s little girl’s name, ‘Sky’ complete the personalized effect. You’ve got zero chance of getting your own pair, so click the jump to enjoy the other pictures and keep it locked here on Sneaker News for news and exclusives.

Nike Air Force 1 Free Hybrid - Wear Test Sample

This past year we’ve seen a number of hybrid models come out of the Nike Sportswear category, the Air Max 90 Current Huarache, Cortez Fly Motion, and we’ve even seen an upcoming Air Max (Maxim) 1 that looks to use some Flywire inspiration on the upper. Little has been done to the Air Force 1 when it underwent some changes a few years ago aside from adding a visible Air unit in the heel. However now pictures have surfaced of a wear test sample Nike Air Force 1 that looks to remove the full length Air unit in the sole of the shoe with Zoom Air in the heel and what looks to be something along the lines of Nike Free in the forefoot. Before those of you Air Force 1 fanatics start a petition, understand that these are wear test samples (notice the numbers written on the shoes) and might not necessarily make it to the market. via Jordan-ugg.com
