Not all good basketball sneakers need to have a nickname. This new adidas J Wall 1 colorway is the perfect example that. The aptly-titled ‘Sky Blue’ adidas J Wall 1 looks should be right at home in the DMV area, especially with Washington National fans thanks to the baseball accents on the tongue and heel [...]

Popular sock company Stanceadds new players to their NBA Legends set along with four new Hardwood Classics team options. New NBA Legend socks include Wilt Chamberlain and Scottie Pippen, who are appearing on Stance socks for the first time.

We start the third month of the 30th year of the Air Jordan right with a brand new Jordan 7 colorway. Because the Air Jordan VII (7) came out in 1992, this is the sneaker that Michael Jordan wore in Barcelona, Spain as part of the fabled Dream Team. This ’30th Anniversary’ Jordan 7 gets [...]

With a colorway inspired by Stephen Curry’s love for Sour Patch Kids is the ‘Candy Reign’ colorway of the Under Armour Curry One. This is the same colorway Stephen Curry wore en route to winning the 2015 NBA 3-Point Contest and becoming the official three-point champion of the world (until next February). Releasing alongside the [...]

This new Kyrie 1 colorway is a nod to what school Kyrie Irving was at when he was 18. Nicknamed the ‘Brotherhood’ colorway of the Nike Kyrie 1, the color pallet used on this sneaker are the exact shades used on the uniforms for Duke University; a Swoosh-sponsored school.

Sneaker colorways are at an all-time high with the nickname inspirations and backstories. The first colorway of the LeBron 12 Low is a perfect example of that. Brilliantly called the ‘LeBronald Palmer’ Nike LeBron 12 Low, the new lowtop silhouette features an Air Max cushioning unit in the heel; something that has come to be [...]

What is arguably the best (and most popular) fusion sneaker, the Jordan Dub Zero is back in 2015 with a new colorway. I really don’t want to call these the ‘Laser’ Jordan Dub Zero because, I feel, that would be the same as saying that the Dub-Zero didn’t have lazered print on the upper when [...]

It is widely publicized that Kevin Durant had ambitions to be a weatherman when he was younger if basketball didn’t become a focus. Inspired by that idea is the ‘Weatherman’ colorway of the Nike KD7. Featuring doppler radar graphics on the Hyperposite heel, the ‘Weatherman’ KD7 is colored mostly green to represent the chromakey that [...]

Continuing on the deep storytelling for the LeBron James siganture basketball sneaker line is the ‘Double Helix’ Nike LeBron 12. Playing off the inspiration that embedded in the DNA of LeBron James is basketball, the ‘Double Helix’ LeBron 12 is mostly burgundy (like a lot of DNA maps) and features a bright Volt and pink [...]
