Updated to within an inch of itself, the Superstar has seen many a makeover, with the Consortium pack giving it a dizzying kaleidoscope of cross-eyed stripes.

Nike Bespoke Air Force 1 x Brandon Fants

The Nike Bespoke Air Force 1 x Brandon Fants super-cool crossed-stitching option is used to decorate the edges of the upper's panels, even going as far as to black out two X's near the toe, similar to the infamous Kaws Air Force 1. Supposedly, Fants is an avid lover of 3M and obviously so. This particular colorway contains a 100% 3M neon yellow base with minimal black accents throughout he upper. Other interesting feature include the cross stitching design on the edges of the panels and the transparent white midsole.

24 Kilates x New Balance 1500 Joan Miro

24 Kilates x New Balance 1500 - Joan Miro

The New Balance 1500 contains some of the same features of the Air Jordan 7 "Miro". it possesses a predominately black suede base with touches of yellow, red, green and blue throughout the upper. 24 Kilates is paying tribute to legendary Catalan artists through this Modernism Pack which began April 2008 with the New Balance 1700, inspired by architect Antoni Gaudi. "Regarding the features, it's important to point out that MirĂ³ has two distinctive subjects: his surrealism and the use of the basic colours of the whole spectrum. We decided to manipulate those colours but using a black background, taking in consideration the surrealism mentioned above. The shoe, which combines perforated leather and suede, reaches its harmony when it's seen from a distance.

This Converse Weapon is available in a number of fresh color choices. The New York Knicks colorway, a white and green Celtics-esque colorway, as well as a white and red colorway that could be a nice home colorway for the Bulls. Perfect timing for the playoffs…well at least for some teams.

Air Jordan Fusion 4 “Cement Grey”

Posted: 24 Apr 2009 12:30 PM PDT

Air Jordan Fusion 4 Cement Grey

Yesterday, we showed you what may be the most talked-bout pair of Fusion sneakers in a long time. Many of you stated that it was one of the freshest Fusions ever seen, however, while release date info is still uncertain, we now have spotted yet another upcoming Air Jordan Fusion 4 release.

Obviously, this Fusion draws inspirations from the infamous Air Jordan IV “Cement Grey”. It features a predominately white leather upper with cement grey straps, black laceholders and a red Jumpman logo on the tongue. As with previous Fusion models, this sneaker features the Air Force 1 sole which contains a transparent cement midsole and a white outsole. The Air Jordan IV “Cement Grey” is arguably one of better Jordan sneakers ever created; therefore, is this particular sneaker disrespecting the classic or is this one of the better Fusions seen yet?

PONY Feed The Cat Hemp & Herringbone

Posted: 24 Apr 2009 12:11 PM PDT

PONY Feed the Cat Hemp & Herringbone

Since the relaunch of the brand a little more than a year ago, PONY has been making major strides in a marketplace that is full of fierce competition.  This summer, PONY brings a casual silhouette, Feed the Cat, in a number of colors and interesting fabrics.  Two that stuck out to us were a Hemp as well as a Herringbone make up of the clean model.

PONY went with a classic tan perforated suede for the toe and tongue to compliment the hemp upper.  A slight touch of white patent leather compliments the white glossy eyelets and subtle white stitching that outlines the company’s chevron logo.  One of the nicest details of this pair was the seersucker lining that ties together the white and tan.  The second pair (posted after the break) features a soft grey suede, charcoal, herringbone fabric, and faux snakeskin.

Both pairs of the PONY Feed the Cat featured are available at Foot Locker for a very affordable price of $54.99.  Click here to check out more detailed shots of both pairs.

Fourstar x DVS DaytonFourstar Clothing has recently teamed up with DVS for a collaborative project on their Dayton silhouette.

This Fourstar x DVS Dayton colorway was done up by DVS rider Andrew Brophy when he joined the DVS pro team last year. The Dayton was Brophy’s choice because of features like the Bruise Control heel cushioning system, vulcanized outsole and overall simple styling. You can pick up these up at DVS retailers now.

Brophy and teammate Torey Pudwill will also be hitting up the upcoming Wallenberg contest on May 30th. You won’t wanna miss this one. Pick up the kicks, and check out the event at this legendary San Francisco skate spot.

Busy P x Nike Air Force 1 1World

Last summer Nike Sportswear linked up with Busy P to release his rendition of the Nike Air Force 1 exclusively in limited numbers in Paris, France and later to a lineup of folks waiting outside of Nike Sportswear at 21 Mercer St.  The Busy P x Nike Air Force 1 has unexpectedly hit NikeStore.com for far less than the resale price.

Grab while you can - these definitely won’t last more than an hour or two at best.

Nike Air Max 3 (Air Garnett 3)

Posted: 24 Apr 2009 08:07 AM PDT

Nike Air Max 3 (Air Garnett 3)It has been ten years since we’ve seen the Air Garnett 3, unless of course you are a Nice Kicks follower, in that case, you probably remember them from our March Madness Memories feature.

The Nike Air Max 3 as it is now called, is set to drop in October in this original colorway. KG fans will be all over these, which are probably the most popular of the Garnett signature kicks. An Air unit in the heel, and a Zoom Air unit in the forefoot help make these one of the more comfortable basketball shoes of its day. If you can’t wait until October, you can check out the Zoom FP that were actually inspired by these shoes.

Click here to see detailed shots of these Air Max 3.
