Air Jordan 2010 Outdoor Playground

Posted: 04 May 2010 01:28 PM PDT

At the end of last year, we gave you a preliminary look at the Air Jordan 2010 Outdoor Playground lineup which included this black/white-varsity red colorway. We were surprised to see that most of you liked the Outdoor Playground version over the original Air Jordan 2010 model because of the absence of the ever-so-popular window. With that said, we now have detailed photos of this particular Air Jordan 2010 Outdoor Playground.

One of the more glaring attributes on this outdoor-ready sneaker is the cross strap that made sneakers such as the Nike Air Raid popular. Obviously, this particular elements increases this shoe’s stability and lock-down support. The enlarged perforations seen throughout the side panels and toe box aid to this shoe’s breathability. As far as the colorway, this Air Jordan 2010 features a color scheme, black/white-varsity red, in which we have seen on a number of Jordan sneakers over the years. Look for the Air Jordan 2010 Outdoor Playground Black/White-Varsity Red to hit retailers some time this summer. View detailed photos below.

Nike SB Dunk High Pro

Posted: 04 May 2010 12:58 PM PDT

Nike SB Dunk High Pro

Following the “Skunk” Dunk probably isn’t a pleasant task for any Nike SB Dunk. Then again, shoes don’t have feelings, so the only real issue that arises here is whether you’re willing to shell out the cash for this Grand Purple sneaker.

As you can probably guess, Grand Purple appears throughout this sneaker, including the ankle, toe box and quarter panel. The latter two of those areas are perforated while the remainder of the upper is black suede. A white midsole works with one of the included sets of laces for contrast. This pair is hitting select retailers now. Do you plan on grabbing a pair?

Posted: 04 May 2010 12:28 PM PDT

Following the Bape Apesta Hi Summer 2010 Lineup we showed you last week, we now have spotted a three-sneaker lineup of the Bape Apesta Low that is available at Cliff Edge.

While the Bape Apesta Highs feature an all-canvas base much like the original Converse Chuck Taylor, the Bape Apesta Lows involved in this lineup contain a 100% soft, plush suede construction. White contrast stitching is also seen throughout the upper and white rubber toe caps give these Apestas a nice color contrast. Other features include a beige inner lining, white rubber soles and white laces. Colorways include navy blue, black and gray. View the entire Bape Apesta Low Ox Suede below.
