The United Arrows x New Balance will release two new silhouettes, the CM1500 and the CM1700. United Arrows is known as a high class institution, and these two classic runners will definitely keep that rep. A mix of premium suede, leather and mesh is applied in original colors for this collab. As expected, these will be available in limited numbers. Will we see Mr. West rockin’ these anytime soon? |

| Nike Zoom Hustle Posted: 30 Apr 2009 10:48 AM PDT  Although the Nike Hyperdunk took the basketball world by storm during the 2008-09 season, Nike shows no sign of slowing up. We have already spotted upcoming exclusive releases such as the Nike Hyperize and the Nike Air Hoop Structure, however, we now have photos of another exclusive model dubbed the Nike Zoom Hustle. Supposedly, this particular sneaker possesses many characteristics of the 2001-released Nike Hyperflight. It uses the same patent leather, lightweight capacity that the aforementioned Hyperflight owned. Other features include Zoom Air in the heel, an aerated medial side of the shoe and a smooth lateral side. Furthermore, this shoe will be the first project Nike ‘REFRESH’ initiative. This project will consist of Nike updating older models. Look for this sneaker to drop in October 2009. Click here to view detailed photos. |

| Supra Skytop II Sneak Peek Posted: 30 Apr 2009 09:15 AM PDT |  The most popular Supra silhouette, the Skytop is going to receive a remake. The Supra Skytop II will replace the popular model and you can be there to see the new version unveiled.
Supra will be unveiling the Skytop II at the AGENDA tradeshow in July. In the image you can see the Supra has raised the bar, or at least the height of the shoe. This shouldn’t come as much of a surprise with the industry trend in raising ankle heights and Supra leading the way with kicks like the Supra TK Society. Time to change that summer vacation destination to Huntington Beach don’t you think? |

The white pair uses the same design, yet its base is made of 100% premium leather. Although this pack does not drop until May 2nd, you can pick it up now at Goliath.

| Supra TK Society - TK Gets Laced Up Posted: 30 Apr 2009 08:39 AM PDT |  Not long ago we gave you a detailed look at the Supra TK Society. It looks as if the highly anticipated Terry Kennedy signature shoe is going to be personally delivered by TK in his SL Mercedes, well maybe not, but the Supra TK Society release is definitely near.
I guess there isn’t much trunk space, so TK and the Supra team decided to ditch the boxes and just load up the trunk with the kicks. It looks like Kennedy has bigger worries then the rest of us and our swine flu concerns. I mean how in the world is TK gonna get those boxes home? I’m sure if you can’t fit all the kicks in your trunk, you can find plenty of Nice Kicks readers that will take a pair off your hands TK. |
