Maha Amsterdam and Nike Revive the Total 90 Shox Magia in Two Bold Colorways
Maha AmsterdamandNikeare set to release a new collaboration, marking the return of the iconicNike Total 90 Shox Magia— a unique hybrid silhouette that first debuted in 2003. The model fuses the upper of the Total 90 football boot with Nike's signature Shox cushioning in the heel, delivering enhanced support, energy return and a futuristic edge.
The collaborative drop arrives in two striking colorways: 'Metallic Silver' and 'Metallic Black.'
The Metallic Silver colorway leans into its futuristic DNA. The upper features a high-shine silver finish contrasted by black underlays and tonal black laces, giving the shoe a dynamic layered effect. Maha Amsterdam's branding is prominently placed on the tongue, embossed over a metallic base. Grid-like textures wrap around the shoe, while a black Swoosh adds sleek contrast along the side. A smaller mini Swoosh appears near the heel on the opposite side. Breathable mesh panels peek through the midfoot for ventilation, while the Shox unit and midsole shimmer with a holographic galaxy-inspired finish, tying the whole design together in a visually striking way.
The Metallic Black pair offers a darker, more refined take. Constructed with an all-black synthetic upper, the shoe is accented by a bold white Swoosh across the lateral side and a smaller Swoosh near the heel collar on the medial. The midsole — rendered in metallic silver — wraps into the outsole for a cohesive, elevated look. The Shox pillars at the heel, typically a focal point of the silhouette, are subtly integrated into the design, providing cushioning and bounce without compromising the shoe's sleek profile. Textural overlays and precise stitching give this version a luxe, contemporary feel while staying true to its performance roots.
Both pairs are set to release exclusively on the Maha Amsterdam website on July 5, following a global release via Nike SNKRS on July 12.

Dylan Harper's Contract Details With San Antonio Spurs Revealed
Dylan Harper's Contract Details With San Antonio Spurs Revealed originally appeared on Athlon Sports. After drafting Dylan Harper second overall in the 2025 NBA Draft, the San Antonio Spurs have officially signed him to a contract standard for most rookies, although he will be making more than everyone aside from top pick Cooper Flagg. Advertisement Harper will earn $12.37 million during the 2025-26 season and will receive $56.1 million over four years as part of the deal. The Spurs have options in the final two seasons, which is to be expected. After the rookie contract is up, he will enter restricted free agency, provided that the Spurs don't extend his contract after the third year. 14th overall pick Carter Bryant also signed his first NBA contract, and he will make significantly less, although he shouldn't want for much. The Arizona standout will make $4.9 million in his first season and $23.42 million over the four years, which also have options in years three and four. Interestingly, with the salary cap having gone up in recent years and teams operating under a new collective bargaining agreement, Harper will make more than former first overall pick Victor Wembanyama, who is bringing home $55.2 million over his first four NBA seasons. However, with endorsements from Nike, Louis Vuitton, and the ever-lucrative H-E-B commercials he does, Wembanyama is pocketing much more than Harper will, at least until he can get a signature shoe of his own. Advertisement Fans will get their first look at Bryant on July 5 in the California Classic summer league, although Harper will remain sidelined with a lingering groin injury.

Former Cowboys Star Slams Nike for Losing Jeremiah Smith To Arch-Rival
Former Cowboys Star Slams Nike for Losing Jeremiah Smith To Arch-Rival originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The world of NIL is shaped not only by the colleges creating budgets to fill their roster, but the product endorsement deals and sponsorships that can begin a lifelong connection. Advertisement The way Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods became synonymous with Nike that type of partnership, because of the NIL market, can come to fruition with a young college athlete. One such deal that's already making waves is the agreement reached by Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith and athletic apparel juggernaut Adidas. On Wednesday, Adidas announced their deal with Smith and the 19-year-old wideout posted "Three Stripes for life" on his X account. But with every move, there are detractors. Former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant was quick to throw shade on social media by questioning how Nike missed out on making a deal with Smith. Advertisement "Nike about to lose all credibility. How did they lose Jeremiah Smith to Adidas?" read Bryant's post, which received more than 250,000 views and over 2,600 likes. Smith joins several big-time football players already associated with the brand, including Patrick Mahomes, Micah Parsons, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Travis Hunter, and Abdul Carter. Last year, Adidas signed several NFL rookies, including Rome Odunze, Michael Penix Jr., Adonai Mitchell, and Xavier Legette.

Pre Classic turns 50: What are the track and field meet's most memorable moments?
Five decades after the shocking death of Oregon running icon Steve Prefontaine, the track and field meet named in his honor continues to carry on his legacy. The Prefontaine Classic, which first took place on June 7, 1975 – two weeks after Prefontaine's fatal car crash on Skyline Boulevard in Eugene – turns 50 on July 5 when nearly 300 athletes from more than 40 countries participate in the Diamond League meet at Hayward Field. Advertisement The Nike-sponsored professional meet would've celebrated its 50th anniversary last year if not for the 2020 meet getting canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The only year the Pre Classic wasn't held in Eugene was 2019, when it moved to Stanford, California, for one year while Hayward Field was being renovated. Virginia prep star Alan Webb, left, and world record-holder Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco begin a triumphant victory lap after running the Bowerman Mile at the Prefontaine Classic May 27, 2001. Among the athletes entered in the 27 events for this year's Pre Classic schedule are 98 Olympic or Paralympic medalists – 62 of which were won in Paris last summer – 48 gold medalists, and 14 world record-holders. It's a status-quo collection of talent for the Pre Classic, which is unquestionably the best annual track and field meet held in the United States and regularly named one of the best overall on the international Diamond League circuit. Advertisement 'One phrase I came up with, which I used pretty regularly, people would ask what are your goals for this year's meet? I would say 'To have a meet worthy of the name,'' said Tom Jordan, the longtime Pre Classic meet director who retired in 2022. 'That was always front and center in my mind.' It's hard to recall when the Pre Classic didn't meet that benchmark. Here is a look at some of the most memorable moments from the first 49 versions of the Pre Classic. Memorable moments in Prefontaine Classic history In what is widely considered to be the most noteworthy performance in Pre Classic history, Virginia high schooler Alan Webb ignited the crowd with his final-lap surge to clock a 3-minute, 53.43-second mile, breaking Jim Ryun's hallowed prep mile record of 3:55.30 – a time that had stood for nearly four decades. Advertisement The race, which took place on May 27, 2001, was headlined by world record-holder Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco and 2000 Olympic 1,500 bronze medalist Bernard Lagat, who was in the early years of what would become a long and decorated career. El Guerrouj won in 3:49.92, which was the fastest mile ever run on American soil. But even as El Guerrouj crossed the finish line, all eyes were on Webb, who was sprinting through the final turn and down the homestretch to complete a 55-second final lap for a fifth-place finish. It was the fastest mile run by an American in three years. After Webb crossed the finish line and his time popped up on the scoreboard, El Guerrouj grabbed the youngster by the arm and the world record-holder and U.S. prep record-holder ran a victory lap together as the crowd roared. Advertisement Maria Mutola: Unprecedented success Maria Mutola was an 18-year-old Olympic veteran who had just wrapped up her senior year at Springfield High when she finished fifth in the Pre Classic women's 1,500 on June 21, 1991. She would never lose another race at the Pre Classic. The native of Mozambique went on to win 16 straight races – 12 of them in the 800 – at the Pre Classic, with the last coming on June 8, 2008, during an emotional final appearance on the track at Hayward Field before her traditional No. 1 bib number was retired. Norway's Jakob Ingebrigtsen dives to beat Ethiopia's Yomif Kejelcha in the men's 3,000 meters during the Prefontaine Classic Sept. 17, 2023, at Hayward Field in Eugene. Jakob Ingebrigtsen shines during Diamond League final The Norwegian was at the top of his game in 2023 when the Pre Classic was held in mid-September as the Diamond League final, winning a pair of titles and nearly taking down a world record. Advertisement Ingebrigtsen opened his meet with a victory in the Bowerman Mile in 3:43.73, which remains the third-fastest finish of all time and the fastest since El Guerrouj (3:43.13) and Kenya's Noah Ngeny (3:43.40) had an epic dual in Rome in 1999 when they ran the two fastest times ever. The following day, Ingebrigtsen won the 3,000 in 7:23.63, beating Ethiopia's Yomif Kejelcha by one-hundredth of a second. Ingebrigtsen would set the world record in that event a year later with a time of 7:17.55. Gabriela Szabo vs. Suzy Favor Hamilton: A photo finish A dazzling finish highlighted the race between two of the best women's 1,500 runners in the world on June 24, 2000. Advertisement Suzy Favor Hamilton kicked her way to a 15-meter lead with 200 meters to go and wasn't losing her speed as she entered the homestretch. But Gabriela Szabo was relentless as she slowly reeled in Hamilton to edge her by a hair as they crossed the finish line together. Szabo clocked in at 4:00.73 to 4:00.79 for Favor Hamilton. Szabo's victory came in a meet record and kept alive her streak of two years without a loss. 'I came this close to beating her,' Favor Hamilton told The Register-Guard, holding her thumb and forefinger barely apart. 'I knew she had not lost a race in two years. She looked like she knew it, too.' Advertisement Men's shot put steals the spotlight Long before Ryan Crouser became one of the sport's most dominant and successful performers, a trio of Americans captured the Hayward Field crowd and turned the men's shot put into a must-have event at every ensuing Pre Classic. On May 26, 2002, Kevin Toth, Adam Nelson and John Godina waged an electric battle that had the capacity crowd tuned into every throw. Toth won with a mark of 72 feet, 9¼ inches – then a meet and Hayward Field record – followed by Nelson (72-¼) and Godina (71-10¾). It was the first time three Americans had thrown over 71-10 in the same competition. 'This is Shot Put Town here now,' Toth exclaimed afterwards. 'It's not Track Town anymore.' Mary Decker Slaney, left, on her way to setting a world record in the 5,000-meter race at the Prefontaine meet in 1982. Mary Slaney sets a world record Mary Decker Slaney, in her first career 5,000, broke the world record with her win in 15:08.26 on June 5, 1982. The race also included former world record-holder Paula Fudge of Great Britain. Advertisement The record Decker took down was 15:13.22 set by New Zealand's Anne Audain. The 5,000 didn't become a standard distance in the Olympics and World Athletics Championships until the mid-1990s, when it replaced the 3,000. The inaugural Pre Classic belonged to the sprinters Don Quarrie and Steve Williams traded blows in a pair of hotly contested sprints on June 7, 1975. Quarrie won the 220-yard dash in a world-record time of 19.92, edging Williams in a photo finish. Williams came out on top in the 100-yard dash, beating Quarrie 9.1 to 9.2. Beatrice Chebet from Kenya breaks the women's 10,000 meter world record at the Prefontaine Classic at Hayward Field in Eugene May 25, 2024. Beatrice Chebet gives historic effort in the 10,000 Utilizing a fast pace set by Ethiopian Gudaf Tsegay, Kenya's Beatrice Chebet surged her way to a world record in the 10,000 in 2024, winning in 28:54.14 as she became the first woman to run under 29:00. Advertisement Tsegay, who set the world, meet and Diamond League records in the 5,000 at the 2023 Pre Classic when she ran 14:00.21, had vocalized her intention to break the 10,000 record in 2024. Instead, it was Chebet who came out on top in what was her first race at that distance since 2020. Tsegay was second in a PR 29:05.92. The race also doubled as the Kenyan Olympic qualifier and Chebet would go on to win gold in Paris in both the 10,000 and 5,000.
