Self-lacing sneakers were supposed to be something you would only see in the movies. Eventually, however, Nike decided to make them a real thing and started adding auto-lacing technology to the midsoles of certain models. It all started with the Nike HyperAdapt and then, the Nike Adapt BB was born. In the interim, we even got a Nike Adapt Huarache and now, an Air Max Adapt. Now, though, we have the Nike Adapt BB 2.0 which will certainly be getting a lot of playing time on NBA courts over the next year.

A couple of colorways of this model have dropped here and there over the last few months but now, we are getting an “Oreo” colorway which will go with almost any uniform. As you can see from the official images below, the shoe has a white upper with black highlights, including the Nike swoosh. From there, the back heel is cement grey with some black speckles.

There is no release date for these yet so be on the lookout over at Nike.com if you are interested in copping. These are set to go for $400 USD.

Nike has been one of the leading innovators in the sneaker world when it comes to auto-lacing technology. What was once thought to be something we would only see in movies, has now become a reality. In fact, Nike’s latest Adapt sneakers allow you to adjust your laces with the swipe of a finger on an app. Over the past year, we have seen the Nike Adapt BB, Nike Adapt Huarache, and now, the Nike Adapt Auto Max which is a play on the Air Max.

The first colorway of this model dropped last month and on May 20th, the “Infrared” offering will be available for purchase for $400 USD. As you can see, the shoe has a bulky aesthetic that allows for the technological components to be stashed away inside of the midsole. The upper features a couple of shades of grey while the midsole is red, allowing the shoe to live up to its name. Overall, it’s a clean colorway that will serve as a nice introduction for some sneakerheads into the world of auto-lacing shoes.

Nike has been working on auto-lacing sneakers for a very long time now. It all started with the basketball-oriented Hyper Adapt which eventually became the Adapt BB. Recently, the Huarache got its own auto-lacing model and moving forward, it looks like the Air Max will be getting the self-lacing treatment.

According to Yankee Kicks on Instagram, the model is being dubbed the Nike Adapt LE 01 and features a massive chunky midsole with Air Max technology embedded inside of it. Based on the look of the midsole, it even feels like Nike is trying to replicate the Air Max 90, except with a much bigger platform and rejuvenated silhouette. The first colorway is a mixture of grey and orange. 

As it stands, there is no timetable for when this shoe will actually be released. Nike has yet to issue a statement on this sneaker and the images above are the first sightings of this model. It seems like Nike has plans to add to its auto-lacing efforts and this Air Max shoe could be a great jumping-off point.

Stay tuned for updates on this sneaker as we will be sure to bring them to you. In the meantime, let us know what you think, in the comments below.

For years now, Nike has been leading the way in terms of sneaker innovation, particularly in the field of auto-lacing shoes. The Nike Mag from Back To The Future was the first time anyone had been made privy to the fantasy of shoes that lace themselves. Last decade, Nike tried to make that a reality as they re-created the Mag with the technology that was 30 years in the making. Nike eventually used this new tech for more practical purposes as they came through with the Nike Hyper Adapt. The shoe was made for the basketball court and the lacing system could be controlled by the pressure of your feet.

Last year, Nike updated this technology with the Nike Adapt BB. Now, sneakerheads overseas are getting their hands on what is being described as the Nike Adapt BB 2.0. As you can see from the posts @sneakerhighway23, the shoe has a similar shape to the original BB although it seems as though the upper has been tinkered with in order to provide the canvas for more elaborate colorways.

There is no release date for these so be sure to stay tuned as we will be sure to bring you all of the latest information. Let us know in the comments below what you think of these and whether or not you plan on copping.
