This Week In Sneaks

This Week In Sneaks

Earlier this week, we received release date information on the most highly-anticipated sneaker of the year, the Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey”. It is tentatively set to hit retailers on December 23rd, 2010.

LeBron James will officially put his number 23 jersey to rest and wear number 6. With that said, take a look at the Nice Kicks Picks: Top 23 LeBron James Shoes.

We now know where LeBron James will take his talents next year. However, before we learned of his choice, we constructed a Free Agency Footwear: 5 Sneaker Scenarios for LeBron James. Check out Photoshop mockups of the Nike Air Max LeBron VIII in the five colorways that correlate with the teams that were after King James.

Why didn’t LeBron James choose the Chicago Bulls? Maybe because the Bulls organization tried to dare him to fill Michael Jordan’s sneakers…literally. Check out the Do you Dare to Fill These Shoes marketing scheme by the Bulls.

Will the Air Jordan 9 “Charcoal” be the best colorway of MJ’s ninth signature sneaker to release this year?

Nike Zoom Huarache Trainer “Pittsburgh”

Posted: 10 Jul 2010 02:58 PM PDT

Nike Zoom Huarache Trainer

Nike also created a “Pittsburgh” colorway of the Nike Zoom Huarache Trainer for Larry Fitzgerald. The Arizona Cardinals star often speaks very highly of his alma mater and often visits the campus in his free time. Therefore, Nike used his relationship with Pittsburgh as a stepping stone to another themed Huarache Trainer for Fitzgerald. Navy blue covers the majority of the base, while minimal gold (neoprene bootie, tongue logo) and white (D-Ring strap, midsole, heel branding) accents bring the entire Pittsburgh color scheme together. Fortunately, this is not a player exclusive for Fitzgerald and will release in the coming months.

New Balance MTG580 Perforated

The MT580 is one of the greatest silhouettes ever made by any brand, ever. Period. Always have been and always will be a freak for these. New Balance takes the shoe to new heights with white perforated leather, a gum bottom, and kelly green liner. Definitely on my radar for next spring when they drop.

Nike Zoom Huarache Trainer “Superheroes” for Larry Fitzgerald

Posted: 10 Jul 2010 01:28 PM PDT

Nike Zoom Huarache Trainer
A couple of months ago, Nike unveiled its innovative and upgraded Zoom Huarache Trainer, a sneaker that garnered a lot of positive feedback from the sneaker community. It’s improved performance attributes, such as a dual density inner core, non-stitched D-Ring strap and enlarged side panel voids for breathability, give this shoe an all-purpose appeal. Besides its performance elements, Nike worked closely with Arizona Cardinals superstar Larry Fitzgerald on special, themed colorways for this sneaker that are sure to be instantly purchased by many when they release. With that said, hit the jump to view this Nike Zoom Huarache Trainer tri-series and learn about how each one is inspired by a DC superhero.

If you recall, DC rapper Wale was spotted wearing this particular Nike Zoom Huarache Trainer at a party a couple of months ago. It has been labeled the “Green Hornet” and borrows the color scheme of the masked superhero. The Green Hornet was known for having superior hand-to-hand combat; therefore, Nike likened Larry Fitzgerald’s ability to rid his defender (using his hands) when getting jammed at the line to the superhero’s obvious strengths.

Release Date: October 2010
