Nike Terminator

Lately, Nike has been finding its connection with the women through the Nike Terminator. Following the release of the “Day & Night” Terminators and the X-Girl x Nike Sportswear Terminator Hi collection, Nike has now released yet another Womens Terminator at select retailers including Dunk.

This particular pair features a similar color scheme as the previously mentioned X-Girls collaboration in regards to the accent colors. Its base is comprised of black leather combined with a pink midsole. To accompany the latter area, this shoe also owns pink contrast stitching around the swoosh. This Terminator uses grey shadow details as nice, contrasting color scheme as well. Click here to view detailed photos.

Vans Vault Switchback for Spring/Summer

Next Spring and Summer will bring us solid Vans releases, as would be expected from the company who many agree perfected the essential Summer skate shoe. From the Vans Vault though, we’re going to see these two leather high-top Switchbacks, which use a boot-like design.

The last time we saw this silhouette, it came in a similar brown to the ones we see here alongside a black pair. The first pair for next year uses a mixture of maroon and orange leather in premium leather, sitting on a white vulcanized sole. The toe is covered with maroon, while orange is used for the remainder of the upper. The other pair is covered completely with worked brown leather, further completing its boot-like appearance.

Nike SB Blazer High

Nike SB Blazer High

Two new color-ups of the classic Blazer have surfaced, though they’re not set to officially release until the new year. Both are coming only in the high silhouette, but also with the Nike SB tag.

The first pair looks fit for Christmas, though you won’t be able to grab them in time, as its upper is done with green suede. Lying underneath the green is red, which is visible through the perforated Swoosh holes. The laces and heel embroidery match up with these holes to finish off the colorway. The second pair comes in tried-and-true red, black and white, with the former comprising the majority. A white Swoosh is also used to match up with the sole.

Jordan CP3.III for Spring

Posted: 22 Dec 2009 10:28 AM PST

cp3-iii-lead1

By now we’ve seen a number of Jordan CP3.III releases for January and February, as well as one very special “True Blue” tribute, but today we’re getting a look at three more colorways set for a March 2010 release. We saw one of these in CP3’s hands as a part of our 1 on 1 with Chris Paul interview, and the other two we’re seeing for the first time.

As mentioned above, the Black/Metallic Silver pair has been seen and posses an all black design with a mixture of materials. Splatter appears on the midsole, and contrast stitching is used. Like the others we’ve seen, this one possesses a panel of laser etching in the mid-panel, and also some patent leather near the heel. The second color-up, White/Sunstone-Black, uses white leather on the forefoot, with black nubuck on the heel. Again, a laser is used, though this one puts black etching on a white panel. Sunstone yellow sneaks in on the outsole to add some bright accents to this black and white colorway. The third pair is the most New Orleans-influenced color-up, as it uses yellow and orion blue stitching all over its black upper. A purple midsole gets treated to splatter from the other team colors and a bit of patent leather is used on the heel again. This colorway is very similar to the CP3.II “Mardi Gras” we saw last season.
