Halloween is only weeks away. It’s time to pick your costume, carve your pumpkin and plan out your pranks. But before we get too far ahead of ourselves, it’s time right now to check out some detailed shots of the Nike Air Max 90 “Day of the Dead.”

This particular AM90 was incredibly well received, with many of you asking for more information and pics.

Another small detail you can see now is the change from matte to gloss black for the Air Max bubble surround. As you recall, the exact release date is unknown, but expect them soon.

Nike Terminator Hi Black/Yellow

Posted: 08 Oct 2009 12:28 PM PDT

Nike Terminator

Following the blue pearlized Nike Terminator Hi that was shown earlier today, we now have spotted yet another new Terminator Hi available at the same retailer.

It simply features the same design as the aforementioned blue pearlized Terminator; however, it owns a yellow in the sections where the royal blue accents were. While some of you may be tired of the black and yellow sneakers seeing that the LIVESTRONG x Nike Stages Collection, this can still be a great purchase depending on your taste. For now, it is available at select retailers overseas.

Nike Air Macropus Lite QS

Posted: 08 Oct 2009 11:58 AM PDT

Nike Air Macropus Lite QS

By looking at this silhouette, the last brand you might expect it to come from is Nike. But that’s just the case, as this non-athletic chukka boot, dubbed the Nike Air Macropus Lite, is straight from Beaverton and looks ready to go straight to the desert.

The uppers on these are completely purple suede, and the sole possesses a tan and brown colorway. The topside of this chukka uses a Native-American-inspired print similar to the “Winter Journey Pack”. The same print appears on the heel tab and the liner is brown with criss-crossing embroidery. The laces are similar to boat shoe laces, as they’re brown, leather and square-cut. These are a quickstrike so move quick, as they’re available now.

Reebok Ex-O-Fit White/Green-Red

Posted: 08 Oct 2009 11:28 AM PDT

Reebok Ex-O-Fit

Will the Gucci theme ever stop? In our The Good, The Bad & The Ugly weekly feature a couple of weeks ago, we featured the Reebok Ex-O-Fit Black/Green-Red as the ‘Ugly’ in which most of you agreed. In the same manner, we have spotted the reverse colorway of this shoe at Mita.

Does the predominately white/grey base make the Gucci-colored straps stand out better than the black-based Ex-O-Fit? The straps on both sneakers seem to overshadow the base as a whole. As stated earlier, you can pick them up now at Mita if you’re interested. Click here to view additional photos.

New Balance 1500 Limited Edition White/Blue

Posted: 08 Oct 2009 10:58 AM PDT

The last time we saw the New Balance 1500, it was donning a rugged all brown colorway as a part of the Concepts x NB collaboration pack. Late for winter, but plenty early for next Spring are these Limited Editions in white and blue.

In white on the upper are pieces of matte-finish leather, patent and mesh. The heel cap is made of grey nubuck, matching the “N” logo embroidery outline. Navy blue is used on the heel and tongue logos, while a lighter shade is the focus of the shoe, covering the toe area completely. On the top-side, perforated nubuck adds breathability and solid nubuck is used for the toe cap, highlighted with 3M reflective material.

Are these some of the nicer New Balances you’ve seen? head to the comments section and weigh in.

DC Xander TX

Posted: 08 Oct 2009 10:28 AM PDT

Mike Shinoda x DC Shoes Xander

DC Shoes has used the Xander model in a number of collaborations with associates such as Mike Shinoda, Lemar and Dauley and Kendo Double Label. However, DC has chosen to let the Xander stand alone this time by introducing this Xander TX.

This sneaker definitely goes in the opposite direction of the subtle, gloomy shoe colorways we see during these seasons. The majority of the base is done up in neon yellow; yet, it contains minimal grey accents on the side panels and tongue. To coincide with the latter details, this Xander is finished with a grey sole. You can pick your pair up now at DC’s online store for $120.

Nike Air Max 95 Obsidian

Posted: 08 Oct 2009 09:58 AM PDT

Nike Air Max 95 Obsidian

No doubt about it, the Nike Air Max 95 is a classic. We’ve seen a ton of hot colorways since its original release, and even saw one yesterday with some wild orange graphics. This pair, like yesterday’s, is a JD Sports exclusive and features far more subtle styling cues and the traditional 95 layered gradient upper.

Working its way up from the black midsole, colors go from obsidian to navy blue to white. That midsole features full-length Air Max technology, of course. Under the top layer of mesh are navy blue cloth lace holders. Breaking up the color scheme on the tongue is the traditional oval logo in gold embroidery.

How do these compare to other Air Max 95s we’ve seen? Better than the Volt/Dark Grey pair we saw not too long ago? Do they stack up against this “Photo Blue” color-up?
