adidas Originals Superstar Vintage Red/White

A new colorway of an old-looking adidas Superstar Vintage has been designed, spotted and slated to release in the very near future. Aged red leather is used on the upper, while white leather stripes and a matching heel panel work for contrast. The trademark shell toe and sole own an off-white vintage treatment, adding to the classic aesthetic of this sneaker.

Jordan Pre-Game XT Black/Varsity Red-White

Posted: 05 Aug 2010 11:58 AM PDT

Jordan Brand gets in the mix of the trainer craze with the Jordan Pre-Game XT. This model sets itself apart from other trainers by having a higher mid top cut and sets itself apart from other team Jordan’s by having no obvious retro inspiration. The basketball oriented trainer has a black upper composed of leather, mesh and suede placed on top of a white midsole. Red accents grace the laces, branding, and eyelets and also touch the outsole. Fans of the Jumpan looking to hit the gym can pick up this model now at Eastbay.
