NIKE LUNAR TR1 MANNY PACQUIAO

I guess there doesn't have to be a Manny Pacquiao fight for Nike to release a MP Trainer. I like this color blocking better than the recent 1.3s. This was a quickstrike that surprised many including myself.

NIKE AIR MAX 90 HYPERFUSE NRG INFRARED

Here we go! Arguably the most popular Nike Air Max and colorway, Infrared Air Max 90 gets the Hyperfuse treatment. I've been a fan of the hyperfuse technology from the beginning so it was a no brainer for me get them. Scheduled release date in August 25, 2012.

NIKE ZOOM KD IV USA

USA! USA!

The USA men's basketball team will play Spain for the gold medal on Sunday. It should be a very entertaining game. Several Nike USA editions have already released like the Zoom Kobe VII and the 2012 Hyperdunk. The most recent is the Kevin Durants.

NIKE FLYKNIT SERIES

Although they first an appearance months ago, the Nike Flyknit series has certainly made a splash during the 2012 London Olympic games. USA athletes from Michael Phelps, Kevin Durant to LeBron James have been wearing them throughout the Olympics. The Nike Flyknit Trainers (black/volt color) have certainly been the most popular because of its exposure during the medal ceremony. Not to leave out the sneaker enthusiasts out, the HTM version are quite awesome in their colors and style. For those wondering HTM is an ongoing collaboration between style leader and fragment founder Hiroshi Fujiwara, Nike lead designer Tinker Hatfield and Nike CEO and designer Mark Parker.
