Six years ago, Nike dropped the much talked about  "Pearlized Pink" Foamposite One . Now in 2018, it is delivering a sequel of sorts with the "Elemental Rose" colorway. This new Foam dons a more subtle shade of pink than its predecessor, with black mesh and nubuck on the heel, tongue, and eyelets. Rose details also show up on the tongue and heel pull tabs, mini Swoosh on the lateral toe, and the customary Penny logo on the heel. As with most Foamposites, this pair sits on an icy outsole.  According to  @zsneakerheadz , the "Elemental Rose" Nike Air Foamposite One is expected to hit retailers on April 20 for $230.

Supreme  is gearing up to launch its Spring/Summer 2018 collection and that means there are collaborations to look forward to. Last week,  details leaked  regarding one of its upcoming Nike projects: the Zoom Streak Spectrum Plus. Now, there is also a teaser of the streetwear brand's  Air Force 1 Mid collab .  While the image does not reveal much, it does serve as a first look at one of the details on the pair. Thanks to  @psycho_1111  on Twitter, we can see the strap features white Supreme branding done in the font used for the "NYC" logo that has been  previously seen on AF1s . Like past Supreme x Nike collabs, this pair also sports a co-branded tongue tag with the Nike Air logo along with and a red Supreme box. Along with a black version, white and blue-based colorways are rumored to be dropping. These Forces could potentially tie in to Supreme's upcoming collection of  officially-licensed NBA apparel  due to the similarity in co...

Jordan Brand is celebrating Valentine's Day in 2018 with a special women's colorway of the  Air Jordan 8 . This upcoming pair features an all-red nubuck upper with multiple shades of red, pink, and black seen on the 8's heel overlay pattern. Aside from the color scheme, the theme really shines through thanks to small details, including the packaging. The shoes come wrapped in black and white rose paper with a Jumpman Valentine's Day card. The shoe itself has a rose graphic on the insoles, "Loves Me..." and "Loves Me Not..." written on the inside of the straps in black,  and a heart-shaped chenille Jumpman logo on the tongue.

Like the Air Jordan 3, the  Jordan 13  is undergoing a Tuxedo-like overhaul for an all-new release aimed exclusively at the ladies. This make-up sports a tumbled white leather base, contrasted by black suede overlays and additional hits on the tongue and inner lining. The fan favorite gum rubber outsole wraps up the package below. If this shoe looks familiar, you may be thinking of the similarly-blocked  "Hyper Pink"  release from 2014. Look for this colorway to  release  in girls' gradeschool, preschool and toddler sizing on Saturday, Feb. 24 at retailers like  Finish Line .

Mo’Nique has been all over social media – asking for Black people to BOYCOTT Netflix – because they offered her $500K to do a special – an amount that she finds insulting. Well, according to entertainment journalist Jawn Murray – Mo’Nique is LYING. Jawn claims that Netflix’s FIRST offer was a LOT MORE than $500k. Jawn claims that Mo’Nique was offered a chance at a $3M payday on Netflix – but she had to do a LIVE AUDITION for the network bigwigs. The “Almost Christmas” star thought it was “beneath her” to audition, and so she turned it down. She felt that if Dave Chappelle and Kevin Hart didn’t have to audition for Netflix, then neither should she. So the Oscar-winning actress and comedienne had a little bit of a pride issue that cost her big time. Here’s what is being reported elsewhere: A source speaking on anonymity at Netflix said they are unbothered. “Mo’nique contacted Us to work on a stand up comedy special as her return to the circuit and we spoke about it”. The...

Leading up to  Air Max Day 2018  on March 26, Nike is bringing back some of its classic Air Max models to celebrate the occasion. One of the silhouettes making its return in OG form next month is the Air Max 180. Its original "Ultramarine" colorway combines a white upper with ultramarine hits on the Swoosh, inner lining, and outsole, and solar red accents on the heel and tongue branding. The standout feature of this Bruce Kilgore and Tinker Hatfield co-designed model is its 180-degree Air bubble in heel — the first shoe to feature 180-degrees of visible Air. The tech used in this pair would lead to further upgrades on future pairs like  Air Max 93's  270-degree unit and even Nike's newest lifestyle model debuting this year, the  Air Max 270 .  The 180 last also made a brief return back in 2013 with a handful of colorways including the original. The Air Max 180 OG "Ultramarine" will be available on Feb. 2 for $130 through  Nike SNKRS  and ot...

The 2017 return of  Eminem's  "Encore" x Air Jordan 4 proved to be a disappointment for most, with an extremely limited run of 23 pairs only made available to friends, family and a  lucky StockX raffle winner . Fortunately for  LeBron James , he falls into the friends category and is reaping the benefits of his association with Slim Shady. Ahead of tonight's game against the Indiana Pacers, James hopped on Instagram to share his footwear for the evening—the aforementioned "Encore" 4s. In a series of Nokia flip phone quality photos, James offered a shoutout to Em, referring to him as a 'GOAT.' At least we know why LeBron  pretended to like the new album  when it dropped.

One of the more anticipated retros slated for 2018 is the first ever release of the "Katrina"  Air Jordan 3 — a shoe that was once auctioned off to raise money for Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. While fans wait in anticipation, more images have surfaced ahead of the pair's May 2018 retail debut.  These new images, courtesy of  @zsneakerheadz  on Instagram, give a closer look at various details of the sneaker like the toe box, heel tab, outsole, and side panels. It is also worth noting that these images showcase a kid's version of the sneaker. Some noticeable differences between past kid's and men's pairs are larger perforations on the lace and heel panels. While  previous rumors  insisted otherwise, it looks like the "Katrina" will not be given the OG "Nike Air" heel tab after all, although this could be switched up on bigger sized pairs.  The "Katrina" Air Jordan 3 is set to release in sizes for the whole family on May ...
