Nike Air Max 1 White/Electric Green-Pink

Yet another colorway of the Nike Air Max 1 has been spotted for this Summer. Donning what looks to be a watermelon-inspired color-up, this may be the perfect pair come Memorial Day.

Electric Green wraps around the base of the upper, while grey suede works as the top-half of the suede construction. White mesh fills out the remainder of the upper, and bright pink accents on the tongue, forefoot and eyelets are matched to the liner. Look for these in the near future, and stay tuned for more information.

Converse Chuck Taylor Chuck It

Posted: 15 Apr 2010 11:58 AM PDT

Is there a particular style the Converse Chuck Taylor hasn’t took on yet? Lately, we have spotted it dressed in a parachute, nylon texture and another one featuring a moccasin-like design. However, Converse has just created another variation of this legendary sneaker dubbed the Chuck Taylor Chuck It.

With no laces and a 100% breathable, mesh upper, one can only wear this sneaker when doing one thing: Kickin’ it Chukkin’ it. This particular sneaker is ideal for one who wants to hang out at the beach or just relax next to the pull this spring/summer. The Converse Chuck Taylor Chuck It is now available in six colorways at Converse’s online store for $40.

Supra CDXIII by 413 Jerry

Part house slipper, the Jerry uses a canvas build for its simple upper. Expanding cloth at the top of the midfoot helps with comfort and flexibility, as does the slim white sole. These are now available exclusively at Factory 413.

Nike Hyperfuse Del Sol/Black

Posted: 15 Apr 2010 10:28 AM PDT

Nike’s ‘Hyper’ series has been nothing less than legendary so far. Sneakers such as the Hyperdunk, Hypermax and Hyperize have dominated courts worldwide. The newly-designed Nike Hyperfuse is next in line and will undoubtedly continue to propel Nike Basketball. Check out a few detailed photos of the upcoming Nike Hyperfuse Del Sol/Black.

The Hyperfuse sets itself apart from its predecessors seeing that there is no trace of flywire on the upper. Instead, this shoe possesses a breathable synthetic and mesh base. With that said, these one-of-a-kind attributes could potentially make the Hyperfuse lightest basketball sneaker when it drops this summer. The Del Sol/Black color scheme, which has been seen on the Nike Zoom Kobe IV and V, will be the first colorway to drop. Click here to view detailed photos of the Nike Hyperfuse Del Sol/Black. What are your thoughts on this new Nike Basketball sneaker?

Gourmet Quattro Skate

Gourmet has developed a new version of their staple Quattro sneaker. Though this new model features a similar silhouette to the one we’re used to seeing, it’s been transformed for a new use: skating.

The Quattro Skate, as mentioned above, maintains the same general shape it’s always had, but has moved the paneling from the side to the toe, where it serves add durability in the are most prone to being destroyed during skating. That panel is made of suede and is laid over the premium tumbled leather that constructs the rest of the upper. An icy clear sole can be found on the denim blue and white pairs while the black shoe gets a white sole.

Nike SB Zoom Stefan Janoski “Tiffany”

Posted: 15 Apr 2010 08:13 AM PDT

Nike SB Zoom Stefan Janoski "Tiffany"

The teal and black pairing has proven to be a big one for the Nike SB line of shoes. The originator of the scheme, Nike SB Dunk “Tiffany” is still one of the more sought-after sneakers for some collectors. Nike SB channeled that theme for the Zoom Stefan Janoski for this upcoming release.

Black suede covers the entire upper of this pair, but gets help from Mint stitching on the mid-panel and underside of the vulcanized sole, as well as the tongue label. Matching the sole are the contrast stitching around the toe and the leather laces. They won’t cause the same stir as the Dunks did, but will this treatment serve the Janoski model well?
