Just two days ago, we posted a video of Bo Jackson discussing the Trainer SC 2010. To follow that one up, a second video has surfaced, during which Bo discusses the “Bo Knows” Nike campaign, the emergence of the cross training shoe and what he is doing now to help young athletes. Bo’s a legend for his on-field achievements, and his sneakers have garnered more than their fair share of adoration over the years.

Air Jordan 2010 Playground Outdoor Oak Hill PE

At the end of last year, we showed you two colorways of the Air Jordan 2010 Outdoor, and many of you stated that you were disgusted. At the time, the majority of you hated the Air Jordan 2010; since then, sneakers such as Dwyane Wade’s All-Star PEs and Carmelo Anthony’s “West All-Star” PEs have undoubtedly altered your opinion. With that said, can this new Air Jordan 2010 Playground Outdoor change your mind about this model as a whole?

The Air Jordan 2010 Playground Outdoor, which will release this summer, is obviously ideal for the street basketball game. Similar to the infamous Nike Air Raid, this sneaker possesses the cross strap design over the midfoot for stability. It also contains heavy perforations on the toe box which yields to two more layers. As for the colorway, this Air Jordan 2010 Playground Outdoor uses the Oak Hill Academy color scheme. Its base is mostly black and contain red and yellow accents along with a sole of the same color. What are your thoughts on this newly-designed Jordan model?

Nike Trainer SC 2010 Manny Pacquiao PE

Manny Pacquiao has been blessed with some very nice shoes from Nike. From the “Lights Out” Trainer 1 to the “Under The Hood” design, the man proclaimed to be one of the best pound for pound fighters ever has a solid history with trainers. The new Trainer SC 2010 has now been done in the the same colorway as the latter of the two above, and will reportedly hit select retailers soon.

Red mesh is used for the base of the upper, working with white Flywire at the heel for support. The outsole is also white, and is accented with blue on the midsole. A Gold Swoosh ties the colorway together. We’ve seen a lot of PEs of this shoe lately. Is the Pacquiao version one of the best?

Adidas Young Guns Black/Columbia Blue

Posted: 24 Feb 2010 11:28 AM PST

Adidas Young Guns

The Young Guns model seems to be most highly-favored Adidas sneaker (along with the TS Supernatural) for the Adidas brand basketball players in the NBA. In our Kicks On Court, we have spotted players such as Raymond Felton and Eric Gordon sporting this sneaker night in and night out. We have now spotted a new Young Guns colorway that is available at Eastbay.

This particular colorway would be ideal for one of Chris Paul’s teammates, preferably Darren Collison. It possesses a mainly black synthetic leather upper with multiple columbia blue accents in the form of the adidas branding on the base. It is also finished with a white midsole and a columbia blue outsole. The Young Guns model is defintely a great, lightweight, durable sneaker from the Adidas vault.

New Balance WRC574 "Surf Multi"

We’ve seen New Balance release sneakers in every seemingly possible color combination. From the simple to the wild, the Boston brand has done it all. For this special 574, they opted to expand their options and include a handful colors, resulting in this “Surf Multi” colorway.

The toe is done with red suede and mesh, while the heel cup dons blue leather. On that back panel, three colors of contrast stitching are utilized. One of those is yellow, which also appears on the mesh near the collar and on the toe box and logo stitching. A darker shade of blue is also used for the N on the quarter panels.
