Mork and Mindy Dunks by SummerSeventySix
Quite possibly the strangest idea yet as part of Nike's SB (skateboarding) range are these Mork And Mindy Hi-Top Dunks. For those unfamiliar with the character played by Robin Williams in the late-1970s/early-1980s, Mork was an alien from the planet Ork, who arrived on Earth in an egg. His catchphrase was "Greetings Earthlings" and Mindy was his girlfriend (kind of). If you never saw it, it was pretty weird, a bit like these shoes. Looking like something straight out of Studio 54, the rainbow soles are inspired by Mork's braces/suspenders. They're expected to be available in the Autumn.

Continuing to push the limits of sportswear innovation, the Zoom Victory Spike and Precool vest are two Nike products that impressed us when introduced at their media summit earlier this week.The Zoom Victory spike takes its design inspiration from the engineering of a suspension bridge, lending strength with minimal use of materials. (We think it looks a lot like a Calatrava, pictured via Lost...

Nike 1984 Tier 0 Olympic Pack
With the Beijing Olympic Games just around the corner, it's only fitting that Nike release a pack of sneakers celebrating various Chinese Olympic Athletes from the past. Featuring traditional Chinese colors with some Olympic accents, I especially like the Air Max 1 version. Other silhouettes in the pack include the Blazer Low, Dunk Trainer High, Vintage Nylon Cortez, Court High Force and Wildwood90 Free...

Nike Four Guardians and Tech Pack Series
I haven't bought a pair of Nikes in a long time, but new releases coming this fall, including the Tech Pack and Four Guardians series, have me reaching for my wallet. A collaboration with Horitaka (an apprentice of Japanese tattoo sensei Horiyoshi III), Nike SB recently announced the Four Guardians series. At the heart of both Chinese and Japanese mythology are four spiritual animals,...

Nike Considered: Long Ball Lace
We've never had a problem getting behind Nike Considered's eco-consciousness, but there have only been a few styles that we'd actually, er, consider wearing. Following suit, new to the Considered family and taking a page from the Footscape series, Nike introduces the Long Ball Lace. With the looks of a deconstructed baseball, it's not really for me. But it's environmental cred is even more...
