Recent months have seen the introduction of new patterns and gradients that inject vibrant energy into the Nike Air Max Dn, yet one particular experimental design has truly captured our focus. Initially revealed through a Size? exclusive and followed by a widespread launch of an all-red variant, this unnamed modification to the “Dynamic Air” is making a return with a new “Light Bone” colorway.

For those unfamiliar, these updates feature an undulating graphic print on the upper, an innovative toe-cap panel, and dual rear pull-tabs. While this doesn’t represent a structural change, all pairs that have embraced this aesthetic thus far have transitioned from reflective to matte soles, which is particularly noteworthy with the “Light Taupe” colorway that calls to mind hiking models like the Vomero 5 Roam.

While we like to believe our personal preferences carry weight, it’s important to acknowledge the positive public reaction to this redesigned silhouette. The previously mentioned Size? pair stands out as one of the few Air Max Dn releases to achieve a significant resale value. It remains to be seen if this “Light Bone” colorway will attain a similar acclaim, but you won’t have to wait long to find out.

The Nike Air Max Dn SE “Light Bone” will launch on SNKRS on November 12th, with a retail price of $180.

    Official Release Date for the Jordan Tatum 3 “Zen”

    The Boston Celtics’ season is unfolding just as they had envisioned, with only one loss to report and a striking 30 points per game average from their star player, Jayson Tatum.

    After a more eventful off-season than what championship teams typically endure, Tatum and his Boston teammates have skillfully tuned out distractions, staying focused on their goal of repeating their success early in the season. In line with this theme, the upcoming #0 Jordan Tatum 3 is about to launch a “Zen” colorway that embodies this same sense of tranquility.

    The motif of serenity has been a consistent element in Jayson Tatum’s sneaker line, especially highlighted by the “Vortex” version of the Tatum 2, which explicitly connects to this theme: our previous coverage noted that the design reflects Tatum’s calm demeanor, reminiscent of the peacefulness found in a vortex above water.

    While this new model opts for a more subdued color palette, its execution remains true to that original concept; the graceful cut-outs in the upper design resemble calm waters, serving as a guiding inspiration throughout Tatum’s signature collection.

    As mentioned earlier, the Jordan Tatum 3 “Zen” is set to launch on November 14th via Nike.com, available in sizes for the whole family. The adult versions will be priced at $125.

    For a closer look at this appealing colorway, check out the official images below, and make sure to keep an eye on our Sneakers page for updates.

    Jason Kelce’s Field Goal Attempt In Timberlands Will End In A $100,000 Donation

    This Saturday, November 2nd, Jason Kelce will take on a field goal challenge while wearing Wheat Timbs during the ESPN College GameDay broadcast of the highly anticipated Penn State vs. Ohio State matchup. The idea for this challenge originated when college student Daniel Villasenor successfully kicked a field goal in Vans checkerboard slip-ons, winning an impressive $100,000 earlier in October.

    Initially discussed on the Kelce brothers’ New Heights podcast with special guest Pat McAfee, this lighthearted challenge quickly evolved into a real event. The NFL legend, Jason Kelce, is set to attempt scoring three points while donning the famous Wheat Timberlands.

    In an exciting twist, VF Corp — the parent company of both Vans and Timberland — has stepped in with a generous $100,000 commitment to the charity Soles4Souls, aimed at supporting hurricane relief efforts. Fortunately for Jason, VF Corp has assured that the funds will be donated regardless of whether his kick is successful or not.

    Make sure to tune in to ESPN College GameDay on November 2nd, 2024, to witness this unique field goal attempt for yourself!
