Nike hits up the retro vault for the ladies with the Miami Vice colored Nike Womens Air Digs retro that would make Sonny and Crockett proud.

The Nike Air Digs may look Miami styled as far as color goes, but it’s more performance oriented than Gabby Reece on court. The early 90’s styling inspiration, of other classics like the Nike Air Trainer, is easily recognizable on these volleyball kicks. The mesh paneling has that throwback feel, and on top of that the indoor court performance is maximized with the gum sole treatment.

Even Gabby Reece in her on court heydays would agree these may be called digs, but these kicks definitely kill.

The closer we get to 2009, the more previews we get of what exactly is dropping next year. Most recently, we get a sneak peak of a Nike Air Force 1 Low Premium in a “Grey/Red” colorway. While the shoe consists of only two colors, it is covered in a myriad of textured leather including embossed alligator print around the back of the upper, textured and soft leather and a smooth leather all around and on top of the toe. The red comes in on a nubuck swoosh, laces and the bottom of the sole. Look for these to drop sometime in 2009, hopefully sooner than later.

Originally re-emerging onto the scene with a SOPHNET. collaboration, the Nike ACG Air Revaderchi was originally debuted in the early 90s which merged several inspirations in an early hybrid of sorts. Seeing itself return in a wider release, Nike Sportswear has added this model to their arsenal to compliment the current staple of familiar styles like the Nike Air Max 90 and Nike Dunk. The relatively stream-lined profile by 90’s standards includes a Huarache Lycra bootie, support straps and aggressive outsole. Topping it all off is a brightly colored speckled midsole. Look for these to hit select Nike Sportswear dealers in the coming weeks.
