Nike Air Trainer 1 Red Pinstripe

Nike Air Trainer 1 Red Pinstripe
This is the latest Nike Air Trainer 1, called the Red Pinstripe, but we’re not quite sure if the colors really work together. The upper is almost completely red and white pinstriped, with the exception of the white swoosh. The part that throws it off for us though is the gum sole, which just doesn’t seem to fit, but what do you think? [EUKicks]

Here is a new design of the Air Max 1 from Nike. It is called the Yellow Safari, and comes in a white/yellow/gray colorway with the safari print in yellow.

Posted: 29 Apr 2009 12:05 PM PDT

Orchard Street x Reebok Fuze 1.0Its no secret that the Velcro strap has become a standard piece of the latest trend puzzle as of late. Reebok has dropped the Ex-O-fit, which somehow twenty plus years after its inception finds itself right in the mix of hot releases. Now with a new twist on the Velcro application Reebok teams up with Orchard Street for a new silhouette, the Fuze 1.0.

The Orchard Street x Reebok Fuze 1.0, in addition to a couple of straps across the forefoot, features Velcro straps unusually placed on the heel area of the shoes. Reebok and Orchard Streetalso apply the business as usual laces as well, which makes for a unique combination to say the least. Aside from that, the silhouette is simple and to the point, which is always a good way to go.

Look for these to hit retailers this summer.

Converse All Star Hi “Pink Floyd Dark Side”

Posted: 29 Apr 2009 10:14 AM PDT

Converse All Star Pink Floyd

A couple of weeks ago, we showed you the Converse All Star High "Pink Floyd", and those who commented had mixed opinions about this shoe. If you did not approve of that Pink Floyd inspired sneaker, maybe this second All Star style (inspired by the same band) will get your nod.

This particular sneaker is inspired by Pink Floyd’s 1973 album The Dark Side of the Moon. Similar to the album cover, this All Star High possesses a mostly black upper with the infamous rainbow design covering the sides of the sneaker. A triangle, which is used in the center of the aforementioned album cover, is seen on the side panels as well. Other features include a zig-zag pattern on the black rubber sole and the white-lettered All Star logo on the heel. Pick the Converse All Star Hi “Pink Floyd Dark Side” up now at sneakersnstuff.

Air Jordan 1 Phat Low Chlorophyll Polka Dots

Posted: 29 Apr 2009 08:35 AM PDT

Air Jordan 1 Phat Low Chlorophyll Polka DotsWe recently saw Laser Blue colored polka dots placed on the Air Jordan 1 and now “Chlorophyll Green” is being applied to this once classic sneaker.

Air Jordan 1 Phat Low Chlorophyll polka dots version is the latest in a long line of “unique” colors and styles to find their way onto the AJ1. The mostly white sneaker is accented with Chlorophyll Green polka dots and laces, as well as the logos and outsole. If I had to choose, I’m leaning reluctantly towards the Laser Blue versions.

You can pick up these at Kinetics for about $130. What do you think?

At the end of last month, our Kicks On Court showcased the newly-designed Protege shoe brand in which New York Knicks forward Al Harrington founded.

Vans SK8-Hi Goatskin Pack

Late last month, we showed you the Vans Vault "Goatskin" Pack, and those who commented really did not show a lot of interest. That may be because of the dull colorway it possesses, however, we have now spotted three colorways of the Vans SK8-Hi involving the goatskin material.

This Pack will consist of three colorways (red, blue and brown). All three feature a predominately suede upper mixed with goatskin and leather accents throughout the base.
