Female athletes can slip into the Nike WMNS Free TR Fit 3 “Print” Atomic Purple to workout in comfort. The black background is highlight by atomic purple explosive print and chrome laces. A Nike Free sole enhances the barefoot feel for a smooth training session. Head over Eastbay now to pick up your pair for $100.

An iconic classic has made its way back into circulation with the release of the Saucony Shadow Original. A staple for some, the Saucony Shadow is available now in two colorways, soft grey and deep navy. The shoe is constructed with suede and mesh paneling and you can pick your own pair at select boutiques such as Feature. Make sure to stay tuned to Nice Kicks for future releases.

Following looks at Seattle SuperSonics and Fish Market themed colorways, the Reebok Kamikaze II is seen in three more makeups. Oklahoma City Thunder attire inspires a Black/Blue-Orange colorway, while the OG Navy/White makeup recalls the 1996 All-Star game and a Red/Yellow pair references this year’s ASW host. Like the Seattle shoes, these Reebok Kamikaze IIs also have a release date of February 15th.

Back in NBA action, the Air Jordan 17 “College Blue” was the showcased shoe for Michael Jordan’s first season with the Washington Wizards. Following a quick run in the “Ginger” 16s, Jordan made the move from front office to back court in the silver suitcase shoes. The jazz-inspired Jordans came with a lofty price tag ($200, the most for any AJ at the time) and were also worn and endorsed by the likes of Quentin Richardson, Darius Miles, and Ray Allen. For today’s #XX8DaysOfFlight feature, we unbox a DS pair of Jordan XVIIs.

Do we need every Air Jordan with Nike Air back? Not really. The “Fire Red” 4s have already been retroed in countless iterations and the tagging makes less of a difference on the 5s and the 6s. With that said, the Air Jordan 3 Retro ‘88 OG and the “Banned” Air Jordan 1s definitely increased our appetite for Swoosh branding on our favorite Js. Here are ten we’d like to see come back in original form.

Air Jordan 4 White/Cement

“Tech Grey” wasn’t a favorite among most OGs, so why not re-release these with the right shade of cement and original branding? There’s no sense wearing a pair from ’89 or ’99, another retro would be great.
