KD 8 pics have arrived



Pictures and videos of what is presumably Kevin Durant's upcoming signature sneaker are all over social media.

This KD 8 is seen in all-red and as comments have pointed out, more or less looks like an Air Max running shoe. One curious feature though is whether the upper material is engineered mesh or the rumored flyknit said to be coming to KD's shoe. Honestly though, it looks like flyknit.

Below are additional screencaps of a video posted by IG user snkr_base



As there is no official word yet from Nike (or if this is indeed the KD 8), there are currently two conflicting dates on this model's release with some saying June and others July. Either way, it should still give you enough time to decide whether to pick up a pair.

Could this be Under Armour's first tennis shoe?


Two-time grandslam champion Andy Murray started the season by jumping from the brand with three stripes to the second-largest US sportswear brand Under Armour.

Not entirely though. While Murray--who won his first grandslam during the 2012 US Open and followed it up with a Wimbledon win in 2013--has been wearing Under Armour apparel since his first tournament of the year in Abu Dhabi, he was still wearing Adidas tennis sneakers.

Until now.

Murray's official Facebook page posted this photo a few hours ago:


Upon closer inspection, it looks like a low-cut Clutchfit Drive basketball shoe and Murray, who is still in contention in the Mutua Madrid Open tournament, certainly can't seem to wait to test out what could very well be his signature sneaker with Under Armour. 

It uses the same Micro G foam cushioning system made popular by Under Armour's basketball sneakers and I might as well throw it out there and guess that it also has the same AnaFoam upper.

With Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry winning this year's 2015 KIA NBA MVP award and getting a special edition Curry One, it seems Under Armour is going all out to make sure their athletes get only the best sneakers and that of course includes Murray, who has won his first clay title this year at the BMW Open in Munich.

So are you excited to see Under Armour's first tennis shoe? I'm sure I am.

As if you needed convincing, here are pics of the Jordan 11 BRED lows



When it comes to the Jordan 11, it's quite certain that Jordan Brand wouldn't need to promote it even more. The shoe sells itself as fanboys get wet with with every release of whatever colorway.

So now here's another reason why Michael Jordan will remain a billionaire in the foreseeable future, the low cut version of the grail-status Jordan 11 BREDs (short for black reds).

Release date is set for May 23 and it has an SRP of $170.

And get this, it's apparently going to be a general release so look for it to be rocked to death by every Tom, Dick, and Harry with matching basketball shorts at your local malls.

This Kyrie 1 Wolf Grey will go with anything



Not since the Deceptive Red Kyrie 1 has this signature sneaker seen a more or less monochromatic look. And if you're the type who digs such colorways, then you'll love this Wolf Grey version.

Even the speckles on the heel tab is limited to white, the other primary color in this mostly grey Kyrie 1. What I personally like about mostly-grey sneakers is that lace swaps are almost always nice just in case I want to add a color accent to it.

Check out more pics of this shoe below and be sure to be on the lookout for this on May 9.

Get ready for some Kobe X 'Oreo'



Though there is no official theme for this upcoming white/black/gold Kobe X, referring to this as the "Oreo" colorway should be good enough for now.

Sleek as they come, this should be a welcome breath of fresh air for those who may already be getting tired of the loud colorways prevalent in sneakers today.



Will you be getting this colorway when this comes out on May 21?

Nike Kobe 10 EP
Color: White/Black-Metallic Gold

KIA NBA MVP Stephen Curry gets special edition Under Armour signature kicks


After leading the Golden State Warriors to an impressive 67-15 franchise record in the regular season, it only seemed fitting that Stephen Curry is named Most Valuable Player of the 2014-2015 season.

As if Under Armour's Curry One basketball sneakers aren't popular already with sneakerheads, a special colorway will be launched on June 13 to commemorate Curry's achievement.
