It’s called ‘Black’ Friday for a reason; dropping this November 26th is the second colorway of the Nike Air Max 85 Foamposite. The all black Air Max 85 Foamposite was first spotted in late August and many of our readers seemed to prefer this colorway over the first silver colorway. The matte finish on the Foamposite material g5es these Black Forces a crisp new look and although these have basketball-court origins, the Foam Forces would be a perfect option for the cold months. Black Friday looks to be a big release day for Nike and Nike Free 3.0 V2 Free Run, as the Flint X3 as well as the recently confirmed Air Max 90 Premio will also release on that day, Nike Free 3.0 V2 so if you’ve been waiting on the Black Foamposite Air Max 85, get them on November 26th.

Each of the Free Run Son of Mars colorways we’ve seen to this point have quickly come along with nicknames (however precise), and though the pair pictured above remains the sole exception to that rule, there are a couple of Free Run Brand story lines that could weave their threads into this palette.  The m6.0 of greys with soft blue and gold accents is the latest Nike Free Run 3.0 V4 chapter in a tale begun when the ‘Cool Grey’ Air Free Run XI dropped in 2010.  This immensely wearable palette is also easily connected to MJ’s days as a Washington Wizard or Carmelo Anthony’s first seven and a half years in Denver, or you could get really creat5e and see this as a visual bridge between Mike’s last season at UNC and his first Olympic gold medal at the 1984 LA Games.  Any way you slice it, this is a versatile design that, paired with the Son of Mars’ early momentum, is shaping up to be one of the summer’s sleeper hits.  We expect them at select JB retailers on August 11th and you can see some more angles after the jump below.  via AR

 

 

On Monday evening, Sneaker News provided you first images and exclus5e release information of the Nike Air Penny 2 in the energetic Soar/Cyber colorway, slated to release this June at a retail price of $155. Based on early catalog images, the Soar/Cyber would be accompanied by a Black/Cyber colorway, seen here; it’s got that HoH-style ‘Highlighter Pack’ feel to it, but these won’t be a HoH exclus5e as chain retailers such as Footaction are confirmed to rece5e these in store. Which of the two colorway do you like better? Stick with Sneaker News for more detailed updates on this June 2012 Air Penny set of releases and we’ll keep you updated. Photos: 23penny

 

 

 

Each of the Air Free Run Sky High Retro Low releases we’ve seen so far has offered a single color on its upper plus a white midsole and the latest is no different.  This new Sky High Low is built of the same materials as the Varsity Red pair we showed you on Monday except for its use of a white contrast stitch on the Victory Green canvas uppers.  This plus the lightly freyed Swoosh helps these carve out their own little niche within the relat5ely simple range, so will you be rocking green kicks this summer?  Click through to see some more angles and if you like what you see you’ll find these at Free Run Brand retailers like FinishLine.
