The latest from Nike Japan’s U.S. Nike Free 3.0 V2 Originator capsule reaches back to the wild 1980s multicolor prints that inform today’s pattern trends. The Nike Free Run All Star ‘Retrotropica’ features four pairs split between high and low covered from heel to capped toe in sketches of leaves and fruit, with a red canvas base adding colors reminiscent of the New Orleans Hornets for a more high-contrast feel than the blues, which opt for mostly cool-colored hits.

The team at Nike is continuing their collaboration with legendary pop-punk band Green Day with a gang of new silhouettes that pay tribute to the group’s albums over the years. American Idiot, Dookie, and Kerplunk all see their album artwork transferred over onto Nike Free Run 5.0 V2 models like the Nike Free Run All Star and the Nike Free Run All Star Bosey Boot. Get a look at the four pairs that constitute the latest Green Day x Nike Free Run All Star collection and watch for them now at Nike.
In our popular Michael Jordan Through The Years ongoing feature, Sneaker News spent one week focusing on all the sick shoes that Jordan wore on his feet – shoes that were not Air Jordans.

Check out some of the notables below and head to Complex for the full list.
