The mash-ups keep on coming for Nike, with the creation of the Nike Auto Flight in a black/infrared colorway. This mean colorway is used to signify a strong beginning for the new shoe model, which combines the Nike Air Flight Lite with the Nike Blazer. The shoe uses an all-black leather upper with a white midsole and black vulcanized toe. Infrared is found on the back heel Nike sign and inner lining to give the shoe some flavor. The perforateions on the toebox and side panels are characteristic of the Flight Lite’s. So if you’re a fan of retro high top’s, then be patient for these babies come October/November.

Available at 21 Mercer Street and other Nike urban accounts. Via Complex.

As you probably already know, the Nike Fun Police takes past Nike Basketball shoes, i.e. the Air Garnett 3, Zoom Flight T-Bug, and Zoom Flight 5, and forms yet a creative hybrid. Another colorway will start hitting retailers, White, Black, and Electrolime. Using a White base, with Electrolime on the lace loops with black splatter, gives this new Nike Fun Police a smooth finish. Available now at Extra Butter.

Nike’s global 1World initiative seeks to pair up some of the world’s most inventive artists and athletes with timeless Beaverton silhouettes. New Jersey Nets big man Yi Jianlian recently got his time to shine, designing his own Nike Air Force One (1). The lowtop’s beige upper is cleverly separated into woven and faux-crocodile premium leather parts and offset by a chocolate outsole. Jianlian’s flaming “Yi” logo resides on the heel tab. Unfortunately, it’s likely that these scorchers won’t reach US retail soil anytime soon; they’re slated to release on May 17 in China.
