hundredsholiday-lead

The Hundreds is bringing a number of new color-ups of their Johnson High- and Low-Top and Valenzuela for this Holiday season. The whole collection will be available October 22 at The Hundreds’ Los Angeles and San Francisco stores. All three models are dropping in 3 new colorways, ranging from natural green suede on the Valenzuelas to the teal and yellow combination for the Johnson Mid.

All three pairs feature matte finishes as opposed to the shine given off by pebbled or patent leather. The Valenzuela features buckskin rawhide, while the Johnson Mid utilizes nubuck leather, saving rawhide for the Low-Top. One of the Johnson Mid-tops even features the ever-popular Gucci colorway on a black vulcanized sole.

Reebok Pump Court Victory 2 Pack

Posted: 20 Oct 2009 12:28 PM PDT

Reebok Pump

Within the past two weeks, we have seen a plethora of Reebok Pump sneakers. We should expect to spot even more seeing that this is the Pump’s 20th year anniversary. With that said, Reebok is set to release this Pump Court Victory 2 Pack during the holiday season.

One pair will feature a solid blue leather base mixed with black details on the toe area, inner lining and tongue. The other sneaker owns a 100% red premium leather base with the same black accents. However, one of the more interesting features on the red pair is the plaid printed design located around the collar area. Although both pairs will not release until the holiday season, you can now pick them up at Kasina. Click here to view additional photos.

Airblaster x Vans Era "Stay Wild"

Airblaster snowboarding has paired up with Vans for this special Era for the Winter months. While the Era would traditionally be done in a simple canvas, this particular collaboration is designed to keep your feet dry in any weather.

The outside of the upper is made of a waterproof material in brown, with a bright blue liner for contrast. Four of the eyelets are white while the top is bright pink. The Airblaster logo also appears on a special tag along the upper’s side. These are available now at most Vans snowboarding dealers.

Nike Terminator Low New Arrivals

Nike Terminator

Lately, we have seen multiple Nike Terminator colorways such as “Outdoor” and winter-ready styles. In addition, Nike has just released two colorways of the Terminator Low at select retailers such as Mita.

One pair contains a color scheme comprised of white, blue and yellow, while the other pair (shown here), contains a white, red and grey colorway. Both pairs also feature a gradient-like design on the side panels and are finished with a white midsole. You cannot help but think about the upcoming Ohio State vs Michigan rivalry game when viewing these sneakers. As stated earlier, both Terminators are now available at Mita.

Nike Blazer High Nylon

Nike Blazer High Nylon

Just when you think there’s no other way Nike can do a simple black Blazer High, they come up with this nylon pair. At first glance, you might confuse them with the Foamposite or Debacle versions since these use elements of both.

The entirety of the upper is constructed of black nylon with bits of matching leather on the eyestays and forefoot accent piece. The heel panel and Swoosh are both white leather for contrast. The tongue is nylon, too, and the traditional Blazer sole is black here.

Expect these to have wide availability sometime in the near future, but are available now on eBay.

Debate Continues Over Marcus Jordan’s Shoes

Posted: 20 Oct 2009 10:28 AM PDT

Air Jordan 2

We have shown you multiple Marcus Jordan PEs within the past couple of years in which many of you have positively commented on to say the least (see Air Jordan 9 & 10 PE). While there is no debate that these may be some of the nicest PEs seen to date, an argument continues to materialize over whether or not Marcus Jordan will be able to wear Jordan’s at all this basketball season.

The University of Central Florida, Marcus Jordan’s current school, have a contract with Adidas; however, Marcus Jordan has obviously wore Jordan sneakers most, if not all of his life. It has been stated that Marcus will honor UCF’s contract with Adidas by wearing the Adidas apparel; yet, he will not partake in wearing Adidas sneakers on the court.

UCF athletic director Keith Tribble stated that Marcus has the right to choose for himself seeing that a previous instance occurred with a football player deciding to wear a different brand sneaker due to the fit. On the contrary, adidas spokesperson Andrea Corso has confirmed that adidas and UCF have no agreement on the table at press time.

With that said, do you think Marcus Jordan should be able to wear Jordan sneakers or do you feel that he has to respect the school’s contract with adidas totally? Click here to voice your opinion.

Pony "Collegiate Pack"

Pony has unleashed four new high-tops for this season dubbed the “Collegiate Pack.” Add these to the long list of examples that Pony has given us that they’re still very capable of giving us clean and wearable designs year after year.

In this pack are four pairs in a mix of dark colors, with the exception of the bright red shoes, which feature a black Pony logo along the side. The grey color-up also gets a black logo design, while the black and navy blue colorways feature white designs, matching their laces and sole. All four pairs use canvas uppers with leather accents and trim along the eyestays and bottom edge of the uppers.
