These shoes are a tribute to when Bo Jackson used to play baseball for the Kansas City Royals at the same time as he was playing football for the Oakland Raiders. As a nod to the classic video games like Tecmo Bowl, these shoes feature a pixelated design towards the heel. [EUKicks]

Air Jordan Fusion 13 White/Black/Red
We’ll start this one off by saying that at least it is done in a classic Chicago Bulls colorway, but that being said, we don’t know how much more of Brand Jordan tampering with the classics that we can take. This is the new Air Jordan Fusion 13 White/Black/Red, not a whole lot more to say. [EUKicks]

Nike WMNS Dunk High Skinny Grey/Purple
The Nike Womens Skinny Dunk has so far mostly seen some very colorful and overly-girlie designs, so it’s nice to see that this one let’s the overall shape of the shoe shine through as the main point of interest. The shoe features a predominantly gray upper with purple mixed in as well. [EUKicks]

Nike Air Hoop Structure Infrared OG Triax Colorway

Nike Air Hoop Structure Infrared OG Triax Colorway
The Nike Air Hoop Structure is our kind of hybrid. It doesn’t try to do too much and doesn’t really try to change a true classic but manages to make a nice design out of a running shoe and turn it into a basketball shoe. This and the fact that this version features an OG Triax colorway makes it really get our approval. [EUKicks]

Nike Alpholution Fall 2009

Nike Alpholution Fall 2009

The Alpholution first appeared on the web at the end of May. Since then we have seen a number of colorways.

The Fall 2009 Nike Alpholution colorways have recently become available at the Nike Store. The timeless black on black colorway, as well as a number of others, including the fresh Blue Sapphire colorway, all come in at $100. Not a bad price for a pair of kicks to finish out the summer in.

Jordan Element Performance Review

Jordan Element Performance Review

As we all know, streetball is nothing less than a ritual throughout the United States, let alone the entire world, year in and year out. Each summer, Jordan Brand releases multiple outdoor sneakers exclusively designed for the rigors of the outdoor playgrounds. One of the outdoor designs created for this summer season is this Jordan Element. Although we first spotted this particular sneaker on Ray Allen’s feet towards the end of the 2008-09 NBA, many sneaker enthusiasts really took a liking towards it upon seeing it as a part of the Quai 54 x Air Jordan “Ruff & Tuff” Pack.

We put the Jordan Element through indoor and outdoor performance tests to see how it could handle both elements of play. Click here to see how Jordan Element performed.

Nike Air Penny II Atlantic Blue release at Politics

The Atlantic Blue Penny has been a long time coming this retro form. Until this weekend, the Atlantic Blue colorway was the only original colorway.

The combination of white leather and the soft Atlantic Blue suede is arguably the best colorway of the Penny II, and for some, the best Penny of all time. The Nike Air Penny II Atlantic Blue will be available at Politics starting tomorrow at 10:30 AM for $145.
