Following Tuesday’s blowout, the Miami Heat clawed back from a 2-1 deficit to knot up the series with the San Antonio Spurs last night. The stars shined for the Heat, with Dwyane Wade bouncing back with a 32-point, 6-steal performance, and LeBron James dropping a game-high 33 points. Both players stuck with their signature line on foot to no surprise, with Flash lacing up the Li-Ning Way of Wade Encore “Gold Rush” PE and James debuting a Black/Gold Nike LeBron X Elite PE. See who wore what in last night’s Game 4 action in this NBA Finals installment of Kicks On Court.

Fresh talent gets laced with a fresh pair of kicks at the NBPA Top 100 Camp this week. The participants in the camp will wear the all-new Under Armour Spawn Anatomix. The shoe is the latest innovation in their basketball lineup. Last year, we saw the Under Armour Bionic Spine become a favorite among Under Armour-sponsored colleges and athletes, such as DeAndre Jordan of the Los Angeles Clippers. True to their usual form, Under Armour will unveil new technology in conjuction with the new shoe. Keep it locked to Nice Kicks for the latest information on the upcoming Under Armour Spawn Anatomix.

The adidas Originals ZX 750 boasts a solid pedigree, it is a runner that came out in the 80s and new-fangled technologies had taken grip of consumer imagination, aided by the promise and fulfillment of performance and of course, massive ad spends. The sneakers shown here sport premium black suede upper with a perforated suede toebox.

The sneakers are a nod by adidas to the 2010 OT Tech Pack footwear that it dropped to much acclaim. Take a look at the images, £80.00 gets you a pair with its very recognizable silhouette and slash of blue on the toe.

PMK Customs seems to have hit a rich vein of form; here’s the second creation of theirs for the day. It follows the “Brooklyn Dodgers” masterpiece, which is a true one-off. This customization is meant to grace the feet of LeBron James. It features leather accents on toe and ankle caps; laces threaded through D-links; and of course strips of leather woven in a plain mat weave, that gives this sneaker its moniker.

Take a look at the images; do you feel the richness? Don’t know if there’s going to be a public release. You may wish to get in touch with PMK directly if you wish to snag a pair.

The Nike Free Inneva Woven gets another colorway, and it is ‘Armory/Navy’. Just like the Roshe Run, the Inneva Woven is quickly building up an impressive legacy of woven runners. This one has a faded grey suede patch on the heel, the mandatory synthetic strips woven to get the unique look, tri-colored laces, and it sits on a speckled Nike Free sole. Take a look at the images.

Set for a release some time soon and when that happens, we’ll have a fistful of more colorways of the Inneva to select from.
