Nike Sportswear’s footwear lineup is largely comprised of classic runners, basketball shoes and trainers. We’ve seen each of these classes cycle old silos in and out of the rotation while creating new styles based on their fundamental elements, and no group has been better represented than the ones derived from early ’80s b-ball models. The all-new Nike Court Tranxition follows in the footsteps of models like the Air Royal, Air Flytop and even the Air Force 1 with its ankle-strapped hightop cupsole design. The shoe’s curious name might be attributed to the ‘transition’ on the rear midsole that leads to some interestingly clean blocking options, and you can see the first two colorways in detail below before buying at Footaction.
