| Nike Challenger ND Cool Grey/Lime Posted: 08 Sep 2010 01:13 PM PDT Suede, mesh, and a waffle sole give the Nike Challenger ND retro running nostalgia. Originally released in the late 70s, the Challenger comes back as a casual shoe at a price point that won’t run you out of house and home. A predominately cool grey upper is set off by lime branding and lining. Above the vintage waffle sole is a white midsole complimented by a lime stripe. You can pick these up now at UK retailer End.

| Nike Zoom Hyperfuse Deron Williams, Rajon Rondo & Brandon Roy PEs Posted: 08 Sep 2010 12:58 PM PDT  It looks like Nike Basketball is set to release a colorway of it newest darling, the Zoom Hyperfuse, that pays tribute to the player that first got us hooked on the silhouette: Rajon Rondo. Other NBA stars will also be honored with retail-ready PEs, including Deron Williams and Brandon Roy. All three shoes sport a special insignia on the ankle to designate which player they were designed for. Rondo’s shoe shows only is number 9, though, as opposed to a special logo like Williams’ DW8 and Roy’s BR7 logos. Just yesterday we saw Russell Westbrook’s special Nikes, which should release around the same as these three pairs.
