Jordan Flight 45 Hi True Blue
Brand Jordan brings another True Blue-inspired Jordan Flight 45 and this time it is in a high top form. The sneaker base comes in White with a cement print fragment on the heel and the True Blue portion just above the midsole. Other True Blue details are located on the strap buckle and tongue border. A Red hint also pops out on the bottom lace holder, heel tab, and Jumpman logo on the tongue, while a Blue Jumpman appears on the heel. This will drop on the later part of February. [NiceKicks]

Fafi x adidas Originals

adidas Originals chose to again work with French graffiti artist, Fafi, to construct some of their Spring/Summer 2010 collection. One piece of the collaborative collection is this trainer.

The pair carries an effeminate make-up with its pale hues of lavender, yellow, and pink. Also, interspersed between the solid colors are cartoon renderings from Fafi. The shoe is branded on the tongue tag with “Fafi” in script superimposed on the adidas trefoil. Hit the jump for another picture.

This Week in Sneaks

We received word that the “Copper” Nike Air Foamposite release has been delayed indefinitely. Who else is impatiently awaiting this sneaker?

Check out detailed photos of the Nike Air Flight Max II Penny Hardaway PE.

This week, we received release date information on the upcoming Nike Air Max LeBron VII “Cool Grey”.

We have spotted an abundance of Air Jordan 12 Retros in our Kicks On Court this year; however, this week, we had an Air Jordan 10 Retro sighting in Philly.

The majority of you have not been too enthused by Nike’s upcoming Scottie Pippen tribute shoe dubbed the Air Max A Lot. Yet, who else is awaiting the Nike Air Pippen I re-release in May?

Jordan Hallowed Ground + 16.5 University of California PEs

Posted: 06 Feb 2010 11:58 AM PST

Jordan Team Cal Bears PEs

The Cal Bears are following the Georgetown Hoyas and Oak Hill Warriors with their own Jordan PEs. The 16.5 and Hallowed Ground have been the choice model of both NBA and college teams all year, so it’s no surprise that Berkeley’s finest were given the same treatment.

White tumbled leather is used on the uppers of the 16.5. Navy Blue patent leather is used on the toe, heel and tongue, while mesh is the choice material for the quarter panels. Yellow accents appear on the heel and toe, as well as the script “Cal” embroidery on the tongue. For the Hallowed Ground, Navy is used on the heel, midsole and mudguard. Pearl white leather makes up the lowest level on the upper, while regular tumbled leather finishes it off. A yellow Jumpman is used on the side to match the outsole stripes.

Puma Suede for Spring

Posted: 06 Feb 2010 11:13 AM PST

Puma Suede

Puma’s Suede lineup for Spring has begun hitting stateside retailers. We previewed three similar Clydes recently, but the slightly different Suede model is the one that hit shelves at HUF.

Blue, Red and Black suede builds are all available now. Matching the white sole used on each colorway is the Puma arch along the side of the upper. Gold foil text jumps off the uppers, finishing off the color-ups.

Kicks On Court: Black Mamba Debuts “Bruce Lee” Kobe V

Posted: 06 Feb 2010 10:28 AM PST

Kicks On Court

Yesterday, we notified you of two new Nike Zoom Kobe Vs releasing today at retailers across the world. Did the ‘Black Mamba’ wear one of these colorways in last night’s game against the Denver Nuggets? Check out today’s Kicks On Court to see.

In a loss against the Denver Nuggets, Kobe Bryant brought out the “Bruce Lee” Nike Zoom Kobe V for the first time this season. As mentioned in our previous post about this particular sneaker, it was created specifically for Kobe’s love for Kung Fu. The predominately yellow upper is reminiscent to the body suit Bruce Lee wore in “The Game of Death”. It also possesses four scratch marks on the side in representation of the scratches Bruce Lee took while fighting in “Enter the Dragon.” Is this the best Kobe V colorway to date? Click here to view these kicks plus more worn by Mike Bibby, Chauncey Billups, Steve Nash and others.

Nike Zoom Kobe V White/Red & White/Purple

Posted: 05 Feb 2010 06:58 PM PST

Release Reminder: Nike Zoom Kobe V

Tomorrow, two more colorways of the Nike Zoom Kobe V drop. The White/Varsity Purple-Black pair, which we’ve seen Kobe sport in Kicks on Court a number of time will hit shelves alongside the White/Varsity Red-Black pair we previewed awhile back.

The latter pair likely won’t be on Kobe’s feet while he’s wearing a Lakers jersey any time, as they’re one of few non-L.A. colorways to release, including the “Dark Knight.” Both of these colorways failed to gain the attention of some of the others we’ve seen, but both provide nice more neutral options.
