Nike Hypermax - Marty McFly + Tennis Ball Edition



When the Nike Hyperdunk premiered last year, one of the primary means of promoting the high-tech new ballin’ kick was the release of the Marty McFly edition. Drawing on the Nike Mags that character wore in Back to the Future II, Nike released another 2015-inspired pair, this time in the form of a Zoom Tre A.D. Over the weekend, we found that this wasn’t the last pair in the McFly colourway, as a new edition of the Nike Hypermax is set to feature the legendary palette.
Seen first at a Sole Collector event and later posted by Ty from Chicago’s LDRS at NikeTalk, the McFly Hypermax features a metallic silver upper sans-Flywire. The midsole is speckled, save the Air bubble frame in teal, and this colour is duplicated on the removable ankle strap. We can also see a healthy dose of bright pink on the Air bubbles themselves along with the sockliner. In another interesting development from Ty, it appears that there’s another new pair on the way in bright yellow and white dubbed the ‘Tennis Balls’. Click the jump to see more photos and it’ll be obvious to you why that is. Via Niketalk / Sole Collector

Nike Sportswear Blazer High “White Checker”



A colorway that is often faultless, the iconic white/white color scheme makes its way onto the Nike Sportswear Blazer High seen here. The shoe’s upper features a minimalistic square/checker-like pattern which gives off an almost woven-like look. Available now at Choko but look for it to become more readily available in the coming weeks.

Commonwealth x Reebok Pump Omni Lite

Having initiated a few different Reebok collaborations awhile back, the Commonwealth crew are at it again with an upcoming collection of Pump Omni Lites. The story-less shoes are essentially just some interesting two-tone colorways with a nice return of seafoam green which was previously seen on a previous release. 300 pairs will drop in June or so. Seen in the latest Issue 15 of Sneaker Freaker.

Fafi x adidas Originals Honey Mid


Continuing her collaborative efforts with the adidas Originals campaign, Parisian artist Fafi will be releasing her third collection this October. The lineup looks to feature five models, with a preview of the first seen here. Utilizing adidas Honey Mid’s, the sneakers take obvious inspiration from Fafi’s world travels and upcoming comic book, which should prove to be another worthy endeavor for the artist.
