| Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III OSU & Akron PEs Posted: 05 Oct 2009 11:58 AM PDT  LeBron may not have gone to college, but his sneakers seem to end up there every season. The Ohio State great-that-never-was is paying tribute to the Buckeyes with this Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III PE. And while there was no chance he would have ever ended up at Akron, the Zips get their own PEs too. The Ohio State PEs are essentially the Team Soldier IIIs with OSU logos, like the “O” on the lower strap. The accent piece separating the sole from the upper has also been changed to black from silver. The Akron PEs’ patent leather toe and side pieces are navy blue, and the entire shoe uses gold accents and contrast stitching. Their logo also appears on the lower strap. Allegiances aside, how do these Soldier PEs stack up against some of Nike’s other offerings? Head to the comments section and weigh in. | Read the rest of Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III OSU & Akron PEs

Adding to the three we showed are another simple colorway and another bright multicolor make-up. The last announcement showed you the TUF Grey and charcoal, which Supra is officially calling Gunny Black, and now you can add a Gunny White to the mix. Adding to the wild colorways we’ve grown accustomed to seeing, including the Thriller-esque red and black patent leather we saw recently, are these blue, grey and black sneakers. The all-white TUFs feature the same matte-finish textile material as the two we’ve seen before. For the black and blues, grey suede is used on the mid-panel, white leather finishes it up. Is Supra keeping it hot, or is it time to move on from the Skytops? Click here for more. | Read the rest of Supra Skytop for Fall Now Available

| Nike Air Pegasus ‘89 Black/White Posted: 05 Oct 2009 09:58 AM PDT  As far as Nike’s classic running silhouettes go, the Air Pegasus doesn’t quite get the love that the Air Max 1 or Air Max 95 get, but this newest black and white colorway is out to show that simplicity will never go out of style. As the 20 year celebration of the Pegasus’ introduction winds down, Nike has rolled out quite a few colorways including this one in a White/Black-Grey. This one comes in a near-reverse scheme, using black as the mainstay color instead. Suede, leather and mesh make up the upper, with a white swoosh and midsole for contrast. These are about as simple as it gets, but with Fall upon us and Winter approaching, it’s nice to have a pair to get dirty when the weather gets nasty. For those interested, there are available now at select retailers. | Read the rest of Nike Air Pegasus ‘89 Black/White
