This Week In Sneaks

Posted: 08 May 2010 12:28 PM PDT

What are your thoughts on the Air Jordan 9 Retro White/Black-Red returning…again?

Did anybody get their hands on Jordan Brand’s Silver Anniversary surprise?

If you didn’t get a chance to make it out to Sneaker Friends 2010 in Atlanta last weekend (even if you did attend), view our Sneaker Friends 2010 photo recap.

Although there was two big Jordan releases today, who else is looking forward to the Air Jordan 6 Retro “LA Lakers” that releases next Saturday?

Take a look at the creative Nike Air Force 1 iD Harajuku samples.

Nike SB Blazer CS Brian Anderson

Posted: 08 May 2010 11:28 AM PDT

Nike SB Blazer CS Brian Anderson

The Nike Blazer has been seen in High and Low versions a seemingly innumerable amount of times. The CS version however, is a fresh cut. This colorway was designed by SB team skater Brian Anderson and was inspired by a boat captain’s hat.

Navy blue suede is draped over the in-between cut sneaker. A golden yellow liner is matched by the Swoosh along the side, which is stitched as if it were a tongue or heel logo. A white midsole provides support.

LAST CHANCE TO ENTER: OG Jordan 10 Giveaway

Posted: 07 May 2010 06:13 PM PDT

Air Jordan 10 "Steel Grey" OG Giveaway

Time is ticking, but you still can enter and win!

Sitting in the vault is a pair of original Air Jordan 10 “Steel Grey” that we will be giving away to one lucky reader.  This OG pair from 1994 is 100% deadstock and was laced up for the first time just for these photos.  This pair is a sz 13 without the original box, but I am sure it will make a great piece to have for any Jordan head.

In the past we have done giveaways involving Twitter & Facebook, but for this one we wanted anyone and everyone to take part.  That being said, all you have to do is fill out the information below to be entered into the giveaway.  Contest is open to anyone and everyone around the globe.

The winner will be announced at exactly 11:00PM CST on Friday, May 7th.

Nike Blazer Mid QS “Belt”

Posted: 07 May 2010 05:58 PM PDT

Nike Blazer High QS "Belt"

Back in April these one-of-a-kind Nike Blazers hit a select Korean retailer, leaving American heads high and dry. Fortunately, Nike has extended the launch to the U.S. for tomorrow, and select retailers like Proper will be able to keep you laced (and strapped) up properly.

Premium tumbled leather is draped over every edge and angle on the upper, while cotton laces and a rubber sole do their best to keep up. Across the ankle, a strap can be found, though this one is not like the others we see on Nikes. This strap fastens with a two prong belt buckle.

Nike Air Max Tailwind White/Black

Posted: 07 May 2010 05:28 PM PDT

We have only seen the Nike Air Max Tailwind on two occasions this year, and both were apart of the ongoing LIVESTRONG x Nike collection. However, we have spotted our first non-LIVESTRONG Nike Air Max Tailwind of the year that is now available at JD Sports.

It simply features a white and grey colored base constructed of leather and mesh. A red swoosh outlined in black gives this shoe a nice color contrast, while a black mesh collar area and a black outsole complete this Air Max Tailwind. Other details include red branding on the tongue, white laces and a white midsole. As stated earlier, this sneaker is now available at JD Sports.

Gourmet Quattro Skate

Posted: 07 May 2010 04:58 PM PDT

Gourmet Quattro Skate

When we first saw the skate-ready version of the Gourmet Quattro, many readers felt it was the best shoe the small brand had released to date. Now we’re getting a second look at two of those pairs, which are scheduled to release later this year.

Not seen is the blue pair we can expect with these two, but it can be seen at the above-linked article. Premium tumbled leather is used for the majority of the upper, while the toe area has been reinforced with matching suede. The white pair boasts an icy sole while the black pair relies on white rubber.
