| Nike Trainer 1 Chien-Ming Wang PE Detailed Pics Posted: 23 Nov 2009 12:58 PM PST  We saw Chien-Ming Wang’s PE last week, and the comments section quickly turned into a Yankees lovers vs. Yankees haters discussion. It also seemed like the opinions went the same way for the shoes themselves, with some liking the changes over the released Yankees PEs and others preferring those. And now, to help those of you sit on the fence on these, we have a detailed look. One detail we didn’t see in the first look is the stitching along the tongue tag, which has been done the same as a baseball, instead of the standard straight stitching. We also can see that the liners were done with the same logo as the heel, and a similar pinstripe treatment. If these were to release, would you rather grab these over the above released PEs? | Read the rest of Nike Trainer 1 Chien-Ming Wang PE Detailed Pics

| Nike Air Max LeBron VII NFW White/Red Posted: 23 Nov 2009 12:28 PM PST  Last week, we showed you a new, White/Black-Gold colorway of the Nike Air Max LeBron VII and many of you took an undeniable liking towards this sneaker. However, if you are one of those who cannot see pass the “Red Carpet” LeBron VII, you may like this new one a lot more. This particular LeBron VII owns a mainly white leather combined with minimal red patent leather accents in the form of the swoosh, the collar area and tongue logo. It is also complimented with a red tongue border and a red full-length Air Max sole. However, its most distinctive feature is seen on the side panels. Similar to the aformentioned “Red Carpet” LeBron VII, this pair also possesses the no flywire design. Is this the best LeBron VII colorway yet? No word yet on when this shoe will release; meanwhile, click here to view detailed photos. | Read the rest of Nike Air Max LeBron VII NFW White/Red

| Nike Dynasty High “Georgetown Hoyas” Posted: 23 Nov 2009 11:58 AM PST  As a perennial power in NCAA basketball, it’s only right that Georgetown gets a tribute off-court sneaker from Nike. Hoyas fans in Chicago, New York and Los Angeles can now represent for their team, as these Dynasty Highs have hit House of Hoops in all those cities, as well as the 34th St. Foot Locker store in NYC. We first saw this sneaker with limited availability in Japan, and now we get a better look at its materials and the Georgetown-specific pattern used throughout. If you recall, this pattern is used only for Georgetown, as it has appeared for years on their jerseys, apparel and now these. No actual Hoyas logos appear on these though, so fans of this colorway and not of Georgetown, can grab a pair and still rep for their own team. | Read the rest of Nike Dynasty High “Georgetown Hoyas”

| Oshman’s x Mita x New Balance 1001 “History Graduation” Posted: 23 Nov 2009 11:28 AM PST  New Balance has been applying its time and effort to models such as the 1500, the 993 and the 420. On the contrary, we rarely get to see the CM1001 model in collaborations and/or general releases. However, in an attempt to put this sneaker in the limelight for a second, New Balance has hooked up with Oshman’s and Mita for a collaborative design on the CM1001. This particular sneaker, dubbed the “History Graduation”, possesses a few textures on the base including suede (toe area, side panels), mesh (toe box) and leather (heel panel). As for the colorway, this 1001 features grey from the side panel to the forefoot, while maroon covers the heel panel. To finish it off, this shoe owns a grey/white sole, white shoelaces and a white inner lining. Although the “History Graduation” officially releases on December 5th, 2009, it is now available for pre-order at Mita.

| Converse (Product)RED Leather Jacket Chuck Taylor Posted: 23 Nov 2009 10:58 AM PST  Only days after seeing the Chuck Taylor Product(RED) in grey suede, which readers were immediately fans of, we get a look at this Leather Jacket Chuck Taylor. Dropping the first of December at select locations and at converse.com, these are yet another (Product)RED release, benefiting The Global Fund to help end AIDS in Africa. These may look like a late to the game Thriller-inspired construction, but the red is for the aforementioned charitable cause. Motorcycle jacket leather and zippers appear all over, including down the midfoot and heel, where functional zippers appear. The zippers means it may be easier to slide out of the back of these than to tie them every time you wear them. Zig zag stitching appears throughout the side of the upper, as well as perforation. Are these worth the $200 price tag for a good cause? | Read the rest of Converse (Product)RED Leather Jacket Chuck Taylor

| Jordan Flight 45 High Grey/White Posted: 23 Nov 2009 10:28 AM PST  The Jordan Flight 45 is a model that has received both positive and negative remarks. Earlier this year, we showed the high-top version of this shoe in a couple of colorways such as the Black/White and the White/Black-Red. However, is this grey/white Jordan Flight 45 High the best yet? Both colorways that were mentioned earlier contain totally different texture makeup. Therefore, this pair also features its own distinctive attributes. The toe box, side panels, collar area and tongue are all done up in a mesh-like material. On the contrary, the rest of the base features a patent leather covering including the strap. The white shoelaces and midsole compliment the predominately grey base very nicely.

| Nike Air Max 1 Baroque Brown “West” Posted: 23 Nov 2009 09:58 AM PST  The Nike Sportswear East vs. West run of releases continues with these Air Max 1s, which represent the West with a natural approach. Right away you can tell these may be from the same design pack as the Varsity Red/Black-White, but the colors sure weren’t pulled from the same palette. Baroque Brown suede is used for the upper majority on these, contrasting the Urban Haze surrounding it. The traditional white midsole is present also, working against the dark upper and black liner. Black mesh is also used on the tongue, matching the suede Swoosh. Durasheen is used in olive green around the ankle area, adding a military look. | Read the rest of Nike Air Max 1 Baroque Brown “West”
