Black Scale x Android Homme Preview

Recently, we showed you the Android Homme Propulsion II Holiday 2009 in which many of you had both positive and negative remarks. However, while some of us impatiently wait on the aforementioned lineup, visibly-challenged photos of Android Homme collaboration have surfaced on the web.

Android Homme has joined efforts with Black Scale on this new, highly-detailed sneaker. It features a 100% black perforated patent leather base combined with a white sole. As a nice, added feature, this shoe also possesses a zipper on the lateral side of the shoe. No word yet on any release date information; meanwhile, click here to view more photos.

LIVESTRONG x UNDFTD x Nike Air Force 1 Supreme

Posted: 30 Nov 2009 12:28 PM PST

LIVESTRONG x UNDFTD x Nike Air Force 1 Supreme

The last time we saw this Undefeated, LIVESTRONG and Nike collaboration, it seemingly came and went. Don’t worry though readers, because a stateside release is happening this coming Saturday, December 4th.

The LIVESTRONG treatment was given to the UNDFTD x Nike Air Force 1 Supreme from awhile back, meaning these have that special proven yellow and black colorway. The heel portion pops off of the black woven mid-panel and toe, which are lined with a black leather outline. “ONYOURBIKEKID” replaces the original “ONYOURFEETKID” that once appeared on the leather-wrapped midsole, paying obvious tribute to Lance Armstrong’s legacy. Click here to see more pics and to find out where these will release.

New Balance 1300

New Balance has currently hooked up with Oshman’s and Mita to produce some nice collaborative designs. Last week, we notified you of the 1001 model that worked on. Now, all three sides join efforts on the ever-so-popular New Balance 1300 model.

This 1300 obviously owns a simpler color scheme than the aforementioned New Balance 1001. It features an upper comprised of suede and mesh. The toe area, side panels, heel panel and the inner lining are all done up in black, while the toe box among other places feature the white mesh. This 1300 will be available at Mita’s online store on December 12th, 2009. Click here to view additional photos.

(Nike) RED Launch

Throughout 2009, we have seen numerous Converse (Product) RED sneakers with the most recent being the exquisite leather jacket Chuck Taylor. Many of you have been enamored with every passing sneaker in this campaign and rightfully so. However, the RED campaign will now join efforts with Nike over the coming months.

Today, November 30th, 2009, the (Nike) RED campaign launched in London, England with the help of some of the world’s popular soccer players. The first release from this campaign will come in the form of these (Nike) RED shoelaces which are specifically designed for football boots. These laces will be available at Nike’s online store on December 1st, 2009.

A RED campaign spokesperson stated that, "we're working with Nike to leverage the power of sport to fight HIV and AIDS in Africa. Together we're focusing on two initiatives: Educate and Medicate. Our aim is to ensure that HIV positive people in Africa have access to the medicine they need to stay alive and to continue to build education programs through the power of sport."

Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” Online Re-Stock

Posted: 30 Nov 2009 10:58 AM PST

Air Jordan 3 "True Blue" Online Re-StockU.S. Sneakerheads were bummed to hear that the Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” was not going to release stateside. Many of you were able to grab pairs off of eBay at ridiculous mark-ups. English retailer Size?, who was a part of Reebok’s Pump 20 collaborators, has a size run available online now.

You’ll still have to pay to ship from England, but at $147.70 USD, they’re a far cry from the $250 they demanded from resellers only months ago.  More pics listed after the break.

*REMEMBER* Size? is from the UK and sizes listed are in UK sizes which is one off of the US size.  For example, a size 12 UK = 13 US.

First Look: DJ AM x Nike Dunk High Premium

Posted: 30 Nov 2009 10:28 AM PST

DJ AM x Nike Dunk High PremiumWhen Adam Goldstein, better known as DJ AM, passed away months ago, the sneaker community lost one of its own. As an avid collector, AM had some amazing and rare sneakers. And while his eBay auction for charity has been your best bet at grabbing a pair of his sneakers, we finally get a look at his official collaboration Nike Dunk High Premium.

AM left a clue to these on his Twitter page, tweeting that he finally had designed is own Dunk. Now we see why he was so happy. These feature black patent leather on the heel flap and toe box. Not only is the Swoosh 3M relfective materials, but the materials behind the perforated patent is as well. Red leather fills in the rest of the sneaker, while a white midsole and black outsole are also used. His ACDC-inspired logo completes the look on the tongue and gives credit where credit is due.

The pattern used for the dots along the heel come from the tool that gave AM his fame–the Technics 1200 turntable. The perforated circles are stacked four tall, with one being far larger than the others. The black patent leather then represents the shiny vinyls spinning on top.

Nike Blazer High AC LE

Posted: 30 Nov 2009 10:28 AM PST

Nike Blazer High AC LE

The Nike Blazer has been seen in a million colorways, with a low cut or a high one, padded or skinny tongue, and a number of sole options. After having seen a Blazer High V Lux with 5 velcro straps not too long ago, we get a look at two more color-ups with straps in these red and grey High ACs.

The grey pair uses matte finish leather on the sides of the upper, while patent comes in on the toe, providing some shine. The red pair uses a textured patent for the entirety of the upper, and both pairs get a pebbled vulcanized sole. Another touch both get is the black patent accent strip where the laces would go, if there actually were any laces to tie.
