With another weekend of highly anticipated sneaker releases just a few days away, all eyes are sure to be on the “Sport Blue” variation of the Air Jordan 3. With elephant print adorning the usual toe and heel sections, the model’s classic black leather base gives way to vibrant applications of blue about the inner lining, lace eyelets, midsole and outsole. Set to arrive at select Jordan Brand retailers, including Wish, Saturday, August 16th, let us know if these will be an instant cop in the comments below.

Rukus Board Shop calls Louisiana home, and now the skate staple has drawn inspiration from one of their home state’s most famous foods to produce the new Rukus x Nike SB Dunk Low QS “Crawfish”. Quickstriking from the depths of the bayou, this Nike SB Dunk Low collaboration is covered in local flavor. All of the included elements in a crawfish boil are represented on the shoe, from red speckled suede overlays that embody the main course, to a newspaper print on the midfoot that represents the makeshift tablecloth that is often used to lay out the feast. The composition is finished off with a silver leather toe that represents the pot and a stitched yellow leather ankle collar that stands in for corn, a popular side dish with crawfish. Releasing alongside a special Nike SB t-shirt and joint Stance socks, these “Crawfish” Dunks will drop on August 16th at select Rukus shops in Louisiana.

The original Huarache that was notable for its neon detailing is on its way in a colorway that flips the script to produce the Nike Air Huarache “Hyper Punch”. Rather than mixing in vivid colors on a white base like the model did in the early ’90s, this Nike Air Huarache utilizes an all-black foundation. The mesh, leather and neoprene build is all blacked out to highlight the neon green detailing on the heel clip and tongue tag, as well as the loud hyper punch midsole. Tell us if these are a cop or drop in the feedback space below, and watch for them to pop up at select Swoosh stores soon.

Out with the red, in with the blue, the Air Jordan 3 “Sport Blue” updates a classic without taking things too left field. Almost all attributes of the iconic Black/Cement 3s are intact, with the quoted color replacing that of the Bulls hue. A black leather base, grey tongue and classic elephant print all allude to the OG, while sport blue accents on the branding and midsole switch things up. Bonus points come in the form of a slightly translucent outsole, capping off this cool colorway in modern fashion. Look for the Air Jordan 3 “Sport Blue” to release at select Jordan Brand accounts nationwide this Saturday.

It’s good to be Drake. After shutting down his hometown with the fifth straight OVO Fest, Drizzy is on the road with his mentor for the Drake vs. Lil Wayne Tour. The Air Jordan 3 “Drake vs. Lil Wayne” PE sees him making good on his Jordan Brand deal, serving as a summer exclusive for the brand’s hip-hop ambassador. In many ways, these PEs follow in the footsteps of last year’s tour-themed “Legends of the Summer” PEs made for Justin Timberlake.

This initial installment features an all-black tumbled leather upper, contrasted by red branding on the tongue and gold on the heel. Nods to the tour and the OVO clique appear on the insoles, adding both personal and exclusive appeal to these pairs. Recently, Drake has been spotted in an all-gold Air Jordan 3 PE, similar to that of Usher’s pair, and has previously received “OVO” themed installments of the Air Jordan 10 and Air Jordan 12 for last year’s solo tour. Keep it locked to Nice Kicks for all updates on Drizzy’s on-stage exclusives.
