| adidas Samba “World Cup” Pack Posted: 10 Mar 2010 12:43 PM PST 
The World Cup packs have been numerous from all of the major brands. Nike and reebok have paid their tributes, but adidas has used their Samba silhouette as the basis for one of the most unique ways to show your support yet. Five colorways of the shoe have been done, with the ability to switch your allegiance on the fly (Not that you would do that). Country’s flag-bearing pins can be placed near the top eyelet, allowing each shoe to be used in support of up to four teams, or more based on colors alone. Two white leather makeups were created, with one displaying yellow and green and the other sporting blue and red accents. The latter sits on a gum sole for further differentiation. Red, blue and black shoes have all been done as well, with all three sporting white stripes and either a white or gum sole. All five can be had now at Shop Adidas. Click here to see them all and the respective countries each could match with. Read the rest of adidas Samba “World Cup” Pack

| Hanon x Eschler x New Balance 576 Bionic Project Posted: 10 Mar 2010 11:58 AM PST  At the end of last year, we gave you a glimpse of the Hanon x Escher x New Balance 576 Bionic Project through detailed photos and a video. At the time, it was stated that this two-set of New Balance 576s released at overseas retailers in mid-December. However, we have just received word that both of these New Balance 576s will be available at select stateside retailers this weekend (click here to see which retailers are carrying them now). New Balance called upon the efforts of Hanon and Eschler Performance Fabrics to design this two-set of 576s. One pair owns a predominately white leather base with a hit of off-white suede on the toe area. Blue and black accents appear throughout the collar and heel panel. The remaining 576 also owns a subtle color scheme. Grey leather is seen throughout the midfoot section, while a darker grey suede is present on the toe area and heel panel. Yellow and black hints appear on the inner lining, collar area and heel. Both colorway are finished with a net-like design on the toe box/collar area and a white midsole/black outsole. As stated earlier, hit the jump to see which retailers have these in stock. | Read the rest of Hanon x Eschler x New Balance 576 Bionic Project

| Video: Nike SB Zoom Omar Salazar Posted: 10 Mar 2010 11:13 AM PST Just yesterday, we spotted two new Nike SB Zoom Omar Salazars for this coming skate season. To help launch the new line of shoes, Nike put together the above video, which features some anti-gravity stunts and gravity-defying skating. When the weather warms soon and the motivation to get out and skate kicks in, will it be this new signature you do it in? The two aforementioned colorways for Spring/Summer will release soon, and the first two dropped just a few days ago, so you have a handful of options. The video corresponds with a new mini-site for Omar, which you can check out here. Read the rest of Video: Nike SB Zoom Omar Salazar

| Nike Hyperdunk St. John’s PE Posted: 10 Mar 2010 09:43 AM PST  Tonight, the St. John’s Red Storm will open their 2010 Big East Tournament schedule at Madison Square Garden. For the event, Nike designed this special Hyperdunk PE. The legacy of the St. John’s is paid tribute numerous times throughout the shoe, including the “1870″ tag on the underside of the tongue, memorializing the year the university was founded. The patent leather toe and midfoot show a design taken from MSG’s legendary ceiling. The Red Storm’s logo can be found on the tongue, while other school nods appear throughout. The most noticeable design element has to be the red and black gradient that appears along the entire side of the shoe. Whether you’re a St. John’s fan or not, you have to appreciate a shoe that so carefully pays homage to a long-standing hoops program. | Read the rest of Nike Hyperdunk St. John’s PE

| Kicks On Court: D-Wade Unveils Another New Air Jordan 2010 Posted: 10 Mar 2010 08:58 AM PST  Exactly a week ago, Miami Heat superstar Dwyane Wade laced up a never-before-seen Air Jordan 2010 that many of you labeled the best colorway yet. However, our Kicks On Court spotted Wade wearing another new Air Jordan 2010 last night. With Michael Jordan in attendance, Dwyane Wade took on the Charlotte Bobcats while wearing a mainly black and red colorway of the newly-designed Air Jordan 2010. The predominance of the base seems to be constructed of suede and leather while its minimal, red hints are seen on the midsole, tongue border and other sections. This shoe is also finished with an icy sole. Is this the best Air Jordan 2010 colorway yet? Does the icy sole give it an even better look? Click here to view these kicks plus more worn by Nate Robinson, Brandon Jennings, Kobe Bryant and others. | Read the rest of Kicks On Court: D-Wade Unveils Another New Air Jordan 2010

| Ronnie Fieg x Asics GT-II Aqua Posted: 10 Mar 2010 08:06 AM PST  Ronnie Fieg has a proven history of creating clean collaborations. For instance, he played a large role on the Nice Kicks x Asics Gel Lyte III last Fall that sold out in minutes. One might think we wouldn’t have heard his name again until the reveal of the “Super Reds,” but today he gave us a look at these special Asics GT-IIs. Premium aqua nubuck covers the majority of the upper, while matching mesh appears on the toe box, collar and on the quarter panels. To help give contrast, a white leather underlay can be found behind the arch design on the sides. For further contrast, a grey outsole, liner and laces were implemented. This pair has unfortunately been left at the sample stage, but if you’re after these samples, follow Ronnie on Twitter and tweet the phrase “Follow @Ronniefieg to win a 1 of 1 exclusive Asics GT-II Sample set.” He’ll choose a follower to give these to on the 17th. | Read the rest of Ronnie Fieg x Asics GT-II Aqua
