Vans California Switchback Spring '11 Preview

The California Collection has some good stuff on the horizon as we see the Vans California Switchback Spring ’11 Preview. Two colorways are shown both using a midtop cut with rich uppers, textured ankles, and white vulc soles. Black and brown makeups mix suede and leather using fine materials and metallic eyelets. Look for both of these to hit Vans California accounts at the turn of the year.

Pendleton x Taka Hayashi x Vans Vault Sk8-Hi & Slip-On

Posted: 01 Dec 2010 12:28 PM PST

Pendleton x Taka Hayashi x Vans Vault Sk8-Hi & Slip-On

Taka Hayashi has been cranking out Vans Vault releases for some time now, with recent drops like the Akat LX causing a stir in the comments section. For this December twosome, he worked with Pendleton to mix up the materials on a Sk8-Hi and Slip-On. The latter of those two shoes utilizes a brown leather on the lower portion of its upper and a wool print material on the topside. The Sk8-Hi uses a similar material make-up with a red, orange, yellow, maroon, purple and black Pendleton wool appearing around the collar and heel. You can pick up either (or both) now at Bows & Arrows.

adidas adiZero Rose 1.5 Preview

This young NBA season has already given Derrick Rose the opportunity to wear his first ever signature sneaker on the court, but as it turns out it, will give him a second in 2011. The adidas adiZero Rose 1.5 will be worn by the Bulls guard later this season when Chicago (presumably) heads in to the playoffs. Features include Torsion, Sprint Skin and Puremotion technologies and a notable design element is the eye-tricking “dR” logo seen on the tongue. Expert more information to surface soon.

The Nike Air Max 1 is one of the most respected sneakers on the market. It has seen almost every imaginable color and material applied to it and today is no exception.

Nike LeBron 8 Black/Anthracite

Posted: 01 Dec 2010 09:58 AM PST

Nike LeBron 8

The success behind the Nike LeBron 8 has been surprising to say the least. Since King James’ “decision,” many sneakerheads have been on the fence about purchasing his signature line. However, just like the Nike Air Yeezy, the LeBron 8 has defied the reputation of their respective multimillionaire names.

A previously sampled LeBron 8 is now shown here in it’s complete form. As can be seen, the pair is completely black with a variety of materials utilized throughout the upper. In addition to a leather material on the toe, side, and ankle panel, a mesh material can be seen on the tongue while an nubuck like texture can be spotted near the lace eyelets. As with all the other LeBron 8s, this pair is engineered with a 360 degree air unit that is complimented with one of the most padded interiors we’ve felt in quite some time.

This pair is set to drop later this month at most Nike retailers. Stay tuned for an official drop date.
