Asics is known with its multi-colored sneakers in either bright or dark silhouette. Today, a pastel collection of the Asics Gel Lyte III composes three fresh colorways in muted color scheme. One comes in Purple/Green/Grey combination with bits of Yellow while the other possesses a mixture of Orange, Blue, Green, and White with Black accent. The last pair is done up in Green/Yellow/Grey combo. All three color-ups utilize nubuck and mesh on the upper.
These sleek looking Nike Air Jordan Alpha 1 Black/Varsity Royal sneakers are a must have. Black and Varsity Royal mix on the upper, and breaking it up is a white midsole which sports the full-length Zoom Cushioning. Final word, these shoes just look dope as a pair of sneakers could look. $75
The Nike SB Zoom Bruin Sneakers features a black, white, and burnt orange colorway. With a prominent suede orange upper, black lining, laces, white rubber welt, and a orange rubber sole this is a perfect sneaker for the summer. A must have for Oregon State fans. $70
The Nike Air Mariah made its resurgence at the beginning of this year, bringing its old school looks and simple silhouette back to the Sportswear catalog. Most of the colorways have been bright and relied on a white base. This pair is changing all that and should be in stores in the near future.
Black suede covers the upper, while a nylon fills out the quarter panel. These may the perfect look for supporters of the USA Soccer team, as white, navy blue and red are the main accent colors. The last of the three is used for the midsole, Swoosh edges and heel netting design. Navy appears on the Swoosh and heel areas.
Last year, Kanye West’s girlfriend Amber Rose was involved in a couple of our Footwear Faceoffs; once against Atlanta songstress Keri Hilson (Nike Air Yeezy) and another time against her beau Kanye West (Air Jordan 3 Retro). It is safe to say Keri may have won for other reasons; however, what other fresh sneakers has Amber Rose rocked?
In its latest installment of Greatest Footwear Moments, Complex gives us a look at some of the better kicks Amber Rose has been spotted in. With that said, click here to see some of Rose’s greatest footwear moments which include the Nike Air Yeezy, various Air Jordans, Reebok Freestyles and others.
We all know that gifted, world class athletes are often gifted world class gear. For the United States’ Track & Field team, Nike designed these special edition LunarFlys.
White mesh and suede combine on the upper and are held together with blue stitching. A bright blue Lunar sole sits underneath, while a red leather Swoosh is matched by the heel panel and underside of the tongue. Finally, a USATF logo appears on the tongue. This pair will actually be available soon only through USA Track & Field.
The highly criticized Air Jordan 2010 window has been the most talked-about attribute on any sneaker this year. When pictures of the Air Jordan 2010 first surfaced, many of you despised the window; however, when we posted our Air Jordan 2010 What If? and See my Socks? History of Invisible Socks features, many of you sort of warmed up to the ever-so-popular window. If you’re one of those who cannot get over the fact that this shoe contains a window, we have now spotted an Air Jordan 2010 ‘No Window’ sample on eBay in a size 9.
Instead of the window, this particular Air Jordan 2010 possesses an encircled Jumpman logo colored in black; this same logo is spotted on the tongue outlined in varsity red. As for the texture and color makeup, this shoe is colored in black/flint grey-varsity red much like the Air Jordan Fusion 8 that is set to release in a couple of weeks. Black plush suede appears on the toe box and heel, while the side panels are done up in black perforated leather. As stated earlier, this Air Jordan 2010 is now available in an auction on eBay in a size 9.
There has been a lot of hype surrounding the Nike Kobe Bryant “Aston Martin” Pack lately. Maybe it’s because Kobe has his team only 8 wins away from another championship. Then again, maybe it’s because the Nike Hyperdunk and Zoom Kobe V are two extremely popular shoes, and a very limited number of these packs will be for sale. Even if you didn’t win the opportunity to buy a set, you can still get a pack, assuming you get in line early enough.
House of Hoops’ Los Angeles location will release this pack on Friday, May 14th, to the general public. Numbers will be scarce, given the nature of these two pairs of shoes, but they are sure to be a true collectors item. Do you plan to make the trip to LA or call a Cali connection to snag a pack of your own?
Obviously, the Nike Air Max LeBron VII and the Nike LeBron VII P.S. are currently two of the hottest basketball sneakers on the market; however, it seems as if some of LeBron’s teammates are more impressed with the shoes LeBron James wore last season.
Cleveland Cavaliers Delonte West and Anderson Varejao both wore the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III in last night’s game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. West laced up the original colorway of the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III (Black/White/Varsity Red) that was worn by the entire Cleveland Cavaliers team last year during the playoffs. On the contrary, Varejao wore the White/Varsity Red Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III. With that said, which Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III colorway interests you the most?

Wicked Purple seems to be a factory favorite amongst the Nike designers lately. We have spotted this vibrant color scheme on a Nike Lunar Mariah+, a Nike Air Force 1 and a Nike Dunk High, just to name a few. In addition, Nike will soon unleash a Blazer AC that possesses this color scheme.
This Blazer AC possesses the wicked purple color scheme obviously more than any of the previously-mentioned Nike sneakers. It owns a primarily wicked purple/shady purple (can you really tell the difference?) leather combined with a white autoclave sole. As for other design cues, five velcro straps appear on the midfoot area and white contrast stitching is present on the swoosh. As stated earlier, this Nike Blazer AC will soon hit retailers nationwide.
