Warren Lotas can’t seem to catch a break with his Dunk inspired sneakers as Nike has filed a continuation in its lawsuit against the designer. Last week Lotas offered to give consumers replacements due to a document submitted on November 2nd stating Nike’s displeasure with his “Reaper” silhouette. Now, Nike is continuing to put pressure on Lotas’ sneakers with the focus being the revamped “Reaper” in which the Swoosh brand sees more issues.
Nike’s current accusation shows that there is a striking similarity between the Lotas’ Reaper soles compared to the Nike Dunk’s soles. Seems as though Lotas changed up a few aspects of his silhouette but couldn’t get away from the soles of the sneaker which is basically identical to Nike’s model.
Other similarities include the heel branding, toe box area, tongue and lacing. In changing of certain aspects of his shoe, Lotas switched the Jason mask Swoosh for a more prominent Reaper logo as well as altering the heel.
November 9th is the deadline for Warren Lotas to formally respond to the latest claim from Nike.
Jordan Brand‘s Air Jordan 1 High Zoom Comfort “Bayou Boys” has surfaced, offering a new take on the classic silhouette. Jordan Brand’s Zion Williamson and the bayous of New Orleans serve as the inspiration behind the sneakers.
The “Bayou Boys” feature a mixture of materials, textures and tones with grey and black textiles for the quarter panels. The panels are complimented by a cut-out black suede Swoosh with more black suede found at the toebox and collar.
One can’t help but notice the croc-printed leather on the mudguards, collar flap areas, eyestays and heel pieces in a “New Orchid” colorway. The exposed foam seems to have a Virgil Abloh influence as the frequent Nike collaborator has made the style famous on a few of its silhouettes. Rounding out the details is the “Bayou Boys” script on the inside of the tongue and insoles along with Zoom technology.
The Air Jordan 1 High Zoom Comfort “Bayou Boys” can be purchased now at Nike China for ¥1,199 or $180 USD.
Travis Scott continues his onslaught of collabs with big companies as he gives us a sneak peak at a Nike Dunk Low and PlayStation sneaker.
Nike x Travis Scott x PlayStation
The pair featured showcase the backward Swoosh that was seen on previous Nike x Travis Scott silhouettes as well as the PS logo at the heel. No further details are confirmed yet but the expectation for the pair will be more clear once the PlayStation 5 drops on November 12.
The internet was sent into a frenzy after several Nike SB knockoffs were released. The result caused creator of the shoes, Warren Lotas, to be sued by Nike.
Some of the shoes have a striking resemblance to Nike’s “Heineken” and “Stussy” colorways and Jeff Staple even co-signed the “Pigeon” knockoff which was more than likely the final nail in the coffin as it lit social media up. Even though the shoes have a slight alteration to separate them from Nike, you can clearly see where the inspiration for the design comes from.
Nike has enlisted a Los Angeles federal judge order for the halt to Lotas’ manufacturing of the sneakers as well as stoppages to all sales. Along with the order, the suit will address “any and all profits earned as a result of WL’s acts in violation of Nike’s rights.”
Warren Lotas intentionally created the confusion, and he is attempting to capitalize on it, by, among other things, using Nike’s registered Dunk word mark, using Nike’s registered Dunk trade dress, and using a mark that is confusingly similar to Nike’s famous Swoosh design to promote and sell his fakes.
Warren Lotas has responded to the suit in his IG post below on Oct. 16.
We are currently investigating the claims made against us and will do what it takes to remedy the situation amicably. I firmly believe my intentions have been misconstrued.
LeBron James won his 4th ring, and the Lakers’ 17th title, in a pair of Nike LeBron 18’s in an all-over orange hue. The on-feet look the King gave had many flocking to the internets trying to find more info on the head-turning kicks.
The shoes in question happen to be the Nike LeBron 18 “MelonTint.” James sported the kicks in game 6 of the NBA Finals and later secured the NBA championship as well as becoming Finals MVP. No other info of the sneakers have been released at this time but we’re sure there will be a release sooner than later. Check back for more info.
Off-White continues its collaboration with Jordan/Nike and the release date for the upcoming Air Jordan 5 “Fire Red” collab will be dropping toward the end of the month.
The “Fire Red” features the deconstructed aesthetic that Off-White head honcho Virgil Abloh has made iconic over the last few years and is reminiscent of the “Black Metallic” colorway. The color palette of this sneaker, however, is inverted from the “Black Metallic” colorway, featuring a sail upper with red accents and silver reflective tongues. The aged yellowing look can be seen on the mid-panel, eyelets, lace toggle, and tread area. Rounding out the details is Abloh’s cutouts that the designer made famous on the first Air Jordan 5 he designed.
The Off-White x Air Jordan 5 “Fire Red” will release on October 24 for $225 USD.
Jordan Brand‘s Holiday 2020 retro collection continues to impress and now we have a new look at the Air Jordan 12 “Dark Concord” colorway.

The Air Jordan 12 “Dark Concord” will see a full-size run release in men’s and grade school sizes via Nike SNKRS and select retailers on October 23. Pricing is set at $190 USD for men’s pairs and $140 USD for kids’ pairs.
The Air Max 97 is the must-have summer sneaker and Nike gives the silhouette the perfect color vibe with a “Light Bone” tone.
The upcoming Nike Air Max 97 “Light Bone” will come in a combination of mesh, leather, and synthetic materials overlaid in a neutral white color. The use of black hits on the tongue, inner liner, and spine complements the overall sneaker very well which is only further enhanced by the silver SWOOSH and transparent Air unit.
No release date is set thus far, but the Nike Air Max 97 “Light Bone” is expected to release before 2020 ends with a price of $180 USD.
