Nike Japan has a nice touch when it comes to updating the One Star’s classic designs. For August 2009, they give us a ton of new Air Max All Star hightops plus two ack Purcell-like lowtops called the Race Around RJ Leather and RLY 2 DRZ. As you might expect, the RLY 2 DRZ feature ‘RLY’ written on the midsole below the bottom eyelets, while the Race Arounds share a similar swooping side panel, but are indeed leather. Take a look at the selection after the jump and expect them soon from nike free 3.0 v2 select Nike Japan retailers. via HB
Nike continually finds ways to put some new spins on their classic Air Max All-Star model. This time around, Nike has decided to go with a quilted look, using a thicker material on the uppers with tonal quilt-style stitching covering the shoe. There will be three colorways available in this style, red, orange and black, each with tonal uppers and laces and a classic white midsole. If you’re a fan of the All-Star, all three versions can be found now at select Nike retailers. Via TSG.
Nike Basketball just lost Dwyane Wade, but their skateboarding division won’t be stopped. The Cons CTS High Digi Red features an interesting red and black pattern on the canvas uppers. It looks like a cross between an 8-bit attempt at reproducing a pearlescent surface and snakeskin. They look great with a white midsole that encases a translucent, ‘CONS’ inscribed outsole. These are available now from select Cons retailers like In4Mation.
