| Nike iD Air Max 1 New Color Options Posted: 06 Jan 2010 12:58 PM PST  The Nike Air Max 1 is a long-time favorite of runner and sneakerheads alike. Aside from its retro release in OG colors this past year, the AM1 kept things going by being added to the Nike iD design studio. But recently, Nike added yet another option, as some new colors just made their way onto the palette. Marina Blue and Electric Green both became available on multiple areas of the shoe. In addition to that, Julep was also added for the different parts of the upper. Julep will appear on a 1 later this year, as previewed in our Sportswear Spring Preview, but this options means you can vary your look a little, and go custom with a pair. Special thanks to our reader jibbycanoe for the heads up. | Read the rest of Nike iD Air Max 1 New Color Options

| Reebok Basquiat Untitled Posted: 06 Jan 2010 11:28 AM PST  In 2009, Reebok released a few sneakers designed by Jean Michel Basquiat, namely the Ex-O-Fit. Basquiat now applies his designs to yet another Reebok silhouette in the form of this running model. This particular sneaker can potentially turn heads thanks to its rich green leather that makes up 100% of the base. It also owns some hints of gold throughout the upper as well. However, its most distinctive attributes are seen in the form of unidentified scripts written on the midsole and heel. Other features include white shoelaces, a monochromatic Reebok logo on the side panels and the word Basquiat written on the tongue. What are your thoughts on this Basquiat-assisted Reebok running sneaker? Click here to view detailed photos. | Read the rest of Reebok Basquiat Untitled

| Nike Air Footscape Black/Medium Grey-Electric Green Posted: 06 Jan 2010 10:58 AM PST  The Nike Air Footscape has proven to be a very love-it or hate-it silhouette. With its crooked midfoot and laces, moccasin design and overall unique look, this shoe has garnered a lot of followers and as many haters. The best way to further a shoe like this one’s ongoing reputation? Dress it in bright green. The upper uses Electric Green for the majority of the upper, while black is used on the toe. The midsole is done in white with a black outsole, while hits of grey are used throughout, including the plastic semi-transparent piece on the heel. | Read the rest of Nike Air Footscape Black/Medium Grey-Electric Green

The Reebok Pump AxtPlus is a very comfortable sneaker seeing that it incorporates HexRide technology. As for the colorway, this shoe owns a predominately black leather base with multiple gold accents including the Pump on the tongue. It is also finished with a white midsole giving a nice, clean look.

| Nike Lunar Rejuven8 Mid+ Black/Varsity Maize Posted: 06 Jan 2010 09:58 AM PST  Torch is finally making its debut in various Nike models to start 2010. We took a full look at this new material in an Air Force 1 and an Air Maxim 1, and also in the Rejuven8 Mid. What we’re seeing here is another colorway of the latter shoe, done in a LIVESTRONG-esque colorway. This shoe was designed for footballers (”soccer players” here in the States) to wear after practice and games for ultimate comfort. The Lunarlite sole is done completely in Varsity Maize, and includes Nike+ technology. The upper’s done in black completely. The mesh weave material that covers the shoe’s Torch infrastructure matches up with nubuck on the heel, Swoosh and midfoot. These have hit select retailers, but are available online at Kix-Files. | Read the rest of Nike Lunar Rejuven8 Mid+ Black/Varsity Maize
