Nike Womens Royalty High Black/Sport Red
Nike is remembering the women with this new Royalty High in an always popular black and red colorway. It does a nice job of evenly spreading out the different colors and even throwing in a few white accents to boot, but would you men wear this women’s shoe? [NiceKicks]

Air Jordan Spizike Boot Dark Cinder/Black
We don’t know what it is that Jordan Brand has been smoking lately, but we certainly don’t want any of it. This newest hybrid shoe, is actually more like a boot, hence the name and comes mixed with the Spizike. The Dark Cinder and Black colorway will make it a good winter shoe, but that’s about it.

Nike SB Dunk Mid “Northern Lights”

Posted: 17 Jul 2009 12:51 PM PDT

Nike Dunk

Nike has recently designed some sneakers that are inspired by specific things such as "Flintstone" Pack, the Nike Hyperize "White Men Can't Jump" and the Swagger x Nike Terminator Hi Supreme. In addition, Nike has now created an SB Dunk Mid that is inspired by the natural light display dubbed the Northern Lights.

It features a predominately brown leather upper with multiple teal and pink accents throughout the base. The accents, along with the multi-colored insoles, represent the plethora of lights that are seen in sky displays. This particular shoe is also complimented with a metallic teal swoosh. What are your thoughts on the Nike SB Dunk Mid “Northern Lights”?

Unreleased All-White Retro Air Jordans

Unreleased All-White Retro Air Jordans

According to his official Twitter page, Chris Paul is currently in Portland, Oregon at Nike’s campus. With that said, he shared with his fans a surprising photo of something hiding in Nike’s closet. Is anybody else ready to take a trip to Nike’s headquarters and witness this?

Paul unveiled a photo of multiple, unreleased Air Jordan Retros including Air Jordan’s 9-14. What’s interesting is that all of them were done up in an all-white colorway. If all of these sneakers did release, our best of All-White Jordan Sneakers and All-White Kicks features would have been 100 pages longer (not literally). What are your thoughts on these unreleased samples? Which pair would you purchase if all of them hit retailers?

Nike Zoom Flight Five White/Orange

Posted: 17 Jul 2009 10:14 AM PDT

Nike Zoom Flight Five White/Orange

The Nike Zoom Flight Five was made famous by Jason Kidd in the 90’s. The golden era of Nike Basketball produced many favorites, including the original Dallas Mavericks colorway that we saw retro a year or two back (along with countless others).

Today, we’ve spotted a new colorway of the Zoom Flight Five in a combination of white and orange. The colorway features a mostly white upper, with orange accents, and what appears to be subtle placements of navy blue. Now that Kidd has moved onto higher peaks, will there be a following for additional colorways of these shoes? These will hit retailers sometime in the spring of 2010.

Click here to let us know if these will make your cop list for next year.

Nike Air Total Max Uptempo Spring 2010

Posted: 17 Jul 2009 09:18 AM PDT

Nike Air Total Max Uptempo

Last month we began to see the Black and Volt colorway of the Total Max Uptempo arrive at retailers. Many of you were impressed by that classic colorway, and some of you still have your originals from back in 1997.

Two colorways of the Nike Air Total Max Uptempo have been spotted from the Spring 2010 Nike Basketball lineup. The first colorway is the simple combination of black and varsity red, which we are hoping makes its way onto some NBA feet next season. The second colorway is the Metallic Silver, Black, and White combination that was made famous by Tim Duncan back in the late 90’s. Look for these at retailers early next year for $160.

Which colorway is better? Let us know by clicking here.

Air Jordan 12 “Rising Sun” Available Early

Posted: 17 Jul 2009 08:36 AM PDT

Air Jordan 12 Rising SunJordan Brand brought back the Air Jordan 12 earlier this summer with the re-release of the “Nubuck” Jordan 12’s. JB is far from finished with the silhouette this year with a couple more releases coming before the end of the year. One of these is the “Rising Sun” Air Jordan 12 which pays homage to the source of inspiration Tinker Hatfield received when designing the first Air Jordan shoe that was part of the Jordan Brand franchise.  Perforations on alternating panels give the subtle tie to the Rising Sun flag of Japan as well as details on the insole.

Though Jordan Brand has not officially released a drop date for these shoes, they are available now online at RMK. Heads up from Daily Drop.
