The team had no trouble with picking their staff picks this week. There were classic Js, Nike SB Dunk Lows and plenty of Nike Zoom KD IVs, which made the run of shoes from the past seven days a strong one. Which was your favorite? Tell us in the comments section.

Nike has come up with a sneak design for runners who like the feel of running barefoot. Not in the sense that they can feel the gravel on their feet. But in the sense that they feel like they are not wearing anything because their feet are not being restricted in movement and burdened by heavy shoes.

Nike Kukini series is just that. It is a slip on shoes, no need to worry about your laces getting untied while you are running, and it fits like a glove but allows your feet to breath and the material of the upper also flexes with your foot. The soles are very flexible and grooved allowing your feet to move as it wishes thus giving you the feeling of running barefoot.

And now, Nike has announced that coming out on May but already available for pre order on some sites would be their latest colorway addition: VIVID ORANGE/MEDIUM GREY-WHITE with vivid orange upper and medium grey webbing over white midsoles.

How about we take a run barefoot?
