Nike Air Max 1 White/Orange Blaze-Grey

Posted: 05 Feb 2010 12:58 PM PST

Nike Air Max 1 White/Orange Blaze

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen this particular Air Max 1. Last week, a pair surfaced on eBay, and it looked like this colorway was bound to remain a sample. Nike’s pulled a nice sneak attack though, as this colorway has hit select retailers like Livestock in a full size run.

Grey nubuck is used on the mid-panel and heel, while Orange Blaze has been placed on the mudguard, liner and Swoosh. Yellow is also used as an accent on the tongue label logo, double-eyelet and the Air Max bag. The color blocking on these is essentially the same as the Columbia Blue & Grey pair we saw earlier today.

Jordan Flight 45 Hi “True Blue”

Posted: 05 Feb 2010 12:28 PM PST

Jordan Flight 45

Last year, a lot of sneaker enthusiasts were disgusted at the fact that the Air Jordan 3 Retro “True Blue” re-released overseas exclusively. Although this sneaker is by no means comparable to the aforementioned Air Jordan 3 Retro, Jordan Brand will release another “True Blue” inspired sneaker in the form of the Jordan Flight 45 Hi later this month.

A lot of you have been very skeptical about the Jordan Flight 45 Hi so far; yet, does this classic colorway propel this particular model in your minds? The cement hints are seen on the heel, while the ‘true blue’ accents are seen just above the sole, on the inner lining, tongue border and on the strap. To finish it off, this Jordan Flight 45 Hi is complimented with a white midesole and a grey outsole. Click here to view additional photos and voice your opinion on this sneaker. As stated earlier, it will be available later on this month.

adidas Adirise

Adidas Adirise

Adidas is currently doing some big things in 2010. Aside from the ongoing Star Wars x Adidas Originals collection, the All-Star sneakers and the recently shown Valentine’s Day lineup, Adidas has now released a very fresh colorway of its Adirise.

The Adirise, an adidas model that started off as a basketball sneaker, features a high-top finish and is complimented with a white, vulcanized rubber sole. While very few will sport this on the basketball courts these days, it is definiely a nice sneaker to lounge around in. It features a 100% grey colored upper comprised of leather and suede. Metallic gold hints throughout the top half of the shoe give it a nice, classy touch as well. Available now at Adidas’s online store for $80. You can also purchase red, black and white colorways as well.

Nike Air Max 1 White/Columbia Blue-Grey

Posted: 05 Feb 2010 10:58 AM PST

Nike Air Max 1 Columbia Blue/Grey-White

Way back in November, we previewed Nike Sportswear’s Spring lineup. To start 2010, a White/Black-Scuba Air Max 1 kicked things off, and now this Columbia Blue classic is keeping things moving.

This pair has landed overseas at select retailers, including End, but should be headed stateside soon. This pair is very similar to the aforementioned pair, as it used grey nubuck on the mid-panel and heel. White mesh fills out the toe box and remainder of the upper, while Columbia Blue is used on the lower portions and forefoot panel. Finally, to help the colorway pop as a whole, bits of orange appear on the tongue label, eyelet and Air Max bubble.

Adidas Originals for Valentine’s Day

Posted: 05 Feb 2010 10:28 AM PST

Adidas Originals for Valentine's Day

If you recall, we showed you these two Superstar colorways as part of the upcoming Adidas Originals “2010 NBA All-Star” collection. Now, we have spotted these two sneakers pictured with Adidas Originals’s upcoming lineup for Valentine’s Day.

We’re sure Adidas Originals has few more sneakers for Valentine’s Day; however, from what we can see now, they have a Nizza Hi and a Nizza Low so far. The Nizza Hi features a primarily white colored base overlayed by an all-over print of enlarged red hearts. As for the Nizza Low, it possesses a red colored unique, sleek texture on the upper combined with minmal white accents. Both are finished with a white sole. Click here to view additional photos.

Nike Air Royal Mid White

Posted: 05 Feb 2010 09:58 AM PST

Nike Air Royal Mid White

When we first previewed an Air Royal Mid in purple, the overwhelming consensus was that Nike’s leather-wrapping trick made for a nice effect, but the purple wasn’t doing the shoe justice. If you were one of the many who felt that way, this white pair may be your answer.

White leather is draped in every panel, and of course covers the mid-panel Swoosh.The upper is made with one a few pieces of leather, as the wrapping effect keeps pieces together instead of threading for the most part. Perforated leather is again used for the liner. Neither the previously seen purple pair or this all white look has been seen in stores yet, but if they do drop, are they a purchase or a pass?
