UNO Links up With Nike to Drop a Special Edition Air Force 1 Low

In celebration of its 50th anniversary, UNO decided to pair up with Nike (NYSE:NKE -3.17%) to commemorate the moment with a special Air Force 1 Low release. While the sportswear powerhouse has chalked up a load of collaborations just in the current year alone, this new partnership is one for the books as the classic American card game has only debuted limited edition decks with streetwear brands such as BAPE and The Hundreds.

Taking inspiration from the beloved game’s colors, a rich blue hue outfits the mudguards over white toe boxes while the quarters are decked in red. The back panels are outfitted in black with a bright yellow Swoosh swooping down the laterals. Red mesh lines the interiors and ankle collars over lime green heel tabs which feature embroidered Nike Air logos. UNO’s branding is stamped on the back above white midsoles to finish off the look.

Although only GS, PS and TD sizes have surfaced, adult pairs of the UNO x Nike Air Force 1 Low might be in the cards within the coming months.

If you’re looking for more sneakers to add to your rotation, buckle up for 1017 ALYX 9SM’s next duo of exclusive Nike Air Force 1 High collaborations.

The Nike Air More Uptempo "Copy Paste" Features Multiple Swoosh Logos

A lot of the Nike sneakers we wear today originated from basketball. The Nike Dunks, Air Force 1s, Blazers, and Air Jordan 1s are just some of the few models famously known today as lifestyle options. On that note, a retro silhouette that has also maintained its permanent position in Nike's roster is the Air More Uptempo. And this time, the '90s classic has surfaced with a new setup title Nike Air More Uptempo "Copy Paste".

The pair introduces a leather upper tinted in an "Iron Grey" shade from heel to toe. Now, what sets this variation apart from other Air More Uptempo colourways are the oversized Nike Swoosh logos on the lateral sidewalls in white, accompanied by several more Swoosh logos on the heels, toes, and medials.

The iconic "AIR" overlays on the side also appear with white outlines, giving additional contrasting touches, including the Air midsole unit underfoot that sees a navy shade.

The Nike Air More Uptempo "Copy Paste" is definitely a must-have for serious Nike collectors. Make sure you stay locked in right here at The Sole Supplier for all the latest Nike drops. In related news, get up close with the Off-White x Nike Air Force 1 Mid "Black".

Concepts’ Creative Director Teases Possible Nike Air Max 1 Collab

Concepts and Nike have delivered several acclaimed sneaker collaborations over the years and it appears that the duo has another must-have project in the works.

The Boston-bred boutique’s creative director Deon Point has shared an image on Instagram yesterday of an unreleased Nike Air Max 1 style that’s expected to be designed in collab with Concepts. “Makes no difference what group I’m in,” Point wrote for the caption of the post.

The forthcoming iteration of the classic Nike running silhouette sports a bevy of mismatched panels throughout the entirety of the upper including light blue denim on the quarter panels and toe box. The heel counter is equipped with a black and white paisley pattern while texts appear on the ankle collar. Adding to the wild design is a trio of hues covering the Swoosh, an olive canvas mudguard and a burgundy tongue and velvet shoelaces. Completing the look is a speckled design on the white-based midsole and a purple outsole. The sneakers are pictured alongside a special shoebox, which features the aforementioned prints and patterns on the Nike branding.

Prior to the release of this purported Concepts x Nike Air Max 1 collab, both entities have come together to deliver several special iterations of Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving’s signature basketball shoe. In addition, Concepts and Nike SB dropped a series of lobster-inspired Dunk Lows.

Despite the early look from Point on Instagram, release details for this purported Concepts x Nike Air Max 1 collabs have not yet been revealed by the retailer or the brand.

The Nike Air Griffey Max 1 “Wheat” Steps Into The Batter’s Box

Ken Griffey Jr.’s Nike Air Griffey Max 1 made quite a come-back for its 25th Anniversary treatment in 2021, returning in two original “Freshwater” concoctions as well as some special editions honoring the late great Jackie Robinson. With the Nike Griffeys back in the fold, the Swoosh is ready to round the bases once more with more releases in 2022, with this upcoming “Wheat” confirmed to drop in adult sizes.

We showed you the GS sizing late last year, noting that this Wheat colorway did in fact drop back in 2016. However, there are indeed the slightest of changes in the 2022 version, as this modern issue features white lettering and lockdown harnesses on the ankle straps, white embroidery on the Swoosh border, and even lighter shade of the “wheat” on the logos and lace eyelets. This colorway blends perfectly with the fresh dirt seen in the batters box for April, but the given “Wheat” colorway suggests a Fall 2022 release.

Take a look at the official images ahead, and stay tuned for release updates; these are bound to hit Nike.com and partnering retailers for $170.

NIKE COVERS THE SB DUNK LOW IN "BLUEBERRY" SHADES

Nike continues to roll out playful Dunks, including a frilly Valentine’s Day drop and an embroidered “Ice” edition in time for the holiday season. Adding to the assortment is a new Nike SB Dunk Low “Blueberry,” a playful release reminiscent of the “Strawberry Cough” colorway.

The forthcoming release comes in a light blue shade contrasted by a deeper blue on the suede overlays, laces and outsole. A third shade of blue finishes off the design, appearing on the tongue banner and Swoosh.

Judging by the shoe’s name and a cartoonish graphic that appears beneath the tongue, rumors are circulating that the “Blueberry” may be Nike’s 4/20 drop. Stay tuned for a release date and pricing.

Nike’s out-of-this world ‘Gundam’ SB Dunk sneakers are dropping soon

Since its unveiling as part of Nike SB’s Olympic lineup, the Gundam Dunk Highs have been two of the most highly anticipated sneakers of the year. The Summer Games came and went without the kicks dropping, but Nike has now released a thrilling trailer to reveal a release date less than a month away.

The two high-tops with intricate detailing are modeled after the Unicorn suit and its brother unit Banshee. Both come with removable Swooshes that protrude from an upper already boasting an alluring level of depth. A small gap at the toebox along with raised stitching help make the kicks look downright mechanical, while Unicorn decals on the foxing cement the connection to two of the franchises' most powerful mecha.

Skate shops in Japan, China, and Europe will get first dibs on the Gundam Dunks September 24, with a regional SNKRS app release following September 27. The same rollout will then unfold weeks later in the States, beginning with skate shops October 9 and the app October 12. You’ll want to check in with your local stores and exhaust all options when it comes time to suit up because these Dunks are some of the best of the modern era.

A COLLECTOR’S DREAM — The intersection of hardcore anime fans and sneakerheads, particularly older ones, is stronger than you might expect — which makes the Gundam Dunks an immediately legendary collision of the two worlds. Fans can nerd out over different mecha just the same as Dunk variants, and deciding between the Unicorn and Banshee sneakers could prove to be a difficult proposition.

Nike’s SNKRS app has only been confirmed to release the Unicorn version, meaning skate shops are likely to get the exclusive on the darker Banshee variant and the decision will be made based on where you can get them.

For the most ardent of fans, Bandai is also releasing two model kits to accompany the sneakers. The Japan-only kits come packaged in a Nike shoebox and see the mecha decorated with the same branding as the promotional trailer above. A raffle for the kits will open this Friday, September 24, and call for a proxy service to get one stateside if you’re lucky enough to win.

If you’re gonna mix up Gundam with Transformers, though — such as the BBC did during the Olympics — it’s best you sit this one out.

This Nike SB Dunk High “TV Static” Won’t Drop In The US

Nike SB continues to deliver some rather intriguing concepts on the Dunk model, now delivering a high-top with an in-your-face detail that may suggest a connection to colored bars commonly seen on televisions of the past. According to these photos provided by leway_sg, the SB Dunks utilize a holographic lenticular prints at the mid-foot panel and ankle collar, with random blotches of white covering the layer. The rest of the shoe opts for a basic black/white miix, with leather at the toe-box, suede at the toe-guard, heel, and lace collar, and what appears to be a patent leather gloss on the Swoosh.

According to @nikesbornothing, the US release of these SB Dunks have been cancelled, much like the SB Dunk Low “Camcorder” release of earlier this year. We shouldn’t be too surprise if more SB drops don’t make it to the states, possibly due to the ongoing hardships in shipping.

Check out the first look ahead and stay tuned as release details unfold. In other SB Dunk High news (that are attainable), the “Maui Wowie” SB Dunks will release on April 23rd.

The “Toasty” Nike Dunk Low Next Nature To Release For Adults And Kids

With autumn underway, the Swoosh has been releasing some cold weather-appropriate footwear over the last month. Up next?: The Nike Dunk Low Next Nature “Toasty.”

Part of the North American company’s “Move to Zero” initiative, the newly-surfaced pair comprises of at least 20% recycled materials. Shades of blue take over all of the modified-for-the-cold upper, with quilted nylon bases donning a lighter tone. The suede that appears across the Nike Dunk’s overlays indulges in a much more vibrant proposition, as does the fur inner-lining and branding at the spine. Sock-liners also boast a non-standard fur, propelling the sneaker as a perfect option for the impending winter. Underfoot, the speckling on the sole unit suggests its made from upcycled materials, furthering the Swoosh’s sustainability efforts.

Enjoy official images of the pair here below, and anticipate adult and Grade School sizes to launch via Nike SNKRS soon.
