Air Jordan 12 Retro White/Varsity Red

Posted: 05 Sep 2009 12:43 PM PDT

Air Jordan 12

Sure, we just showed you this week’s Hot Topics; however, had we waited a little longer this would easily be the hottest of them all. The Air Jordan 12 has, or will be seen in multiple classic colorways this year including the “Nubuck”, the “Rising Sun” and the “Flu Game”. You can now add the infamous Air Jordan 12 Retro White/Varsity Red to the list of highly anticipated Jordan sneakers for 2009.

If you recall, the Air Jordan 12 White/Varsity Red originally hit the scene in 1997. Since then, it has not been retroed until this year. As for the makeup, it contains a sort of similar colorway to the aforementioned “Flu Game”, yet it features a predominance of white leather instead of the black nubuck. With that said, there are not many glaring differences between the OG version and this retro. Look for this instant classic to release some time in the winter. Meanwhile, click here to view additional photos.

Nike Air Max LeBron VII “Tradition” - London

Posted: 05 Sep 2009 11:43 AM PDT

Nike Air Max LeBron VII

The majority of you really took a liking towards the Behind The Scenes: Making Of The LeBron VII Paris Artist Series. I’m sure you would agree it supplies us with a different twist to the LeBron VII craze. However, we now have to return to our regularly scheduled program. Photos of the London version of LeBron’s seventh signature sneaker has surfaced on the web.

Much like the other city-dedicated Air Max LeBron VII’s, this particular shoe also owns the white/green color scheme that draws inspiration from ‘King James’ high school, St. Vincent St. Mary’s. However, the London version, which represents “Tradition”, contains specific details from LeBron’s teammates. For example, a picture of a couple of the St. Vincent St. Mary’s players with hands raised in the center of a huddle is featured on the tongue and quarter panel. This particular shoe, which was made in 123 pairs, is available at London Niketown and the opening day of the new London House of Hoops in Footlocker. Click here to view detailed photos.

Nike Destroyer’s Pack

Posted: 05 Sep 2009 11:13 AM PDT

Nike Destroyers Pack

For the past couple of years, Nike has created a “Destroyer’s” Pack which includes multiple colorways of the Dunk High. In 2007, we spotted the “Red Earth” colorway; however last year Nike revealed three new Dunk High colorways of “Destroyer’s” collection. Yet, this particular year seems to be very different from past “Destroyer” releases.

As opposed to the aforementioned releases, this Nike “Destroyer’s Pack possesses an Air Force 1 Mid to go along with two vibrant Dunk colorways. The Air Force 1 Mid contains a predominately black leather base with minimal yellow accents throughout the upper. As far as the Dunk color schemes, one owns a black/red base, while the remaining pair features a white/orange-black colorway. Available today at 21 Mercer. Also, click here to view the New Era fitted caps that coincide with the sneakers.

Nike Zoom Kobe IV “Rice High School”

Posted: 04 Sep 2009 11:43 AM PDT

Nike Zoom Kobe IV "Rice High School"

Now available at Kix Files is this Kobe IV Rice High School PE. Earlier we showed you the IV that Kobe used to pay tribute to his own alma mater. This pair is a PE for the players at the school in Harlem that Kobe sponsors.

Featuring a green, yellow and white colorway, these have a pretty unique setup. We’ve all seen a ton of Kobe IV’s as of late, especially for different high schools. Don’t forget the Westminster High PE’s we showed you back in July. And with the addition of the Kobe IV Team colorways, it looks like Nike intends for every high schooler to have their own pair for this upcoming hoops season.

Nike Air Max LeBron VII Low

Posted: 04 Sep 2009 10:58 AM PDT

Nike Air Max LeBron VII Low

Earlier this week, we broke the news that three Air Max LeBron VII Low colorways are set to drop next summer. Some scoffed at the idea, and some loved it. No matter how you felt about LBJ’s next known model, it looks like Nike has committed to an additional set of releases, as seen in the pictures we have for you today.

Eight total pairs, using what appears to be a mix of leather and a pseudo-nubuck, are to be expected. Nike has kept the VII news coming in heavily, and while the Lows have not yet been addressed much, this has all the makings of a full-scale LeBron line for the future.

Click here for pics of all the pairs.

Vans Sk8-Hi

If you recall, around this time last year Silas celebrated its 10th-year anniversary by collaborating with Vans on a multi-colored Sk8-Hi model. This year, both sides have hooked up for yet another fresh colorway of the Sk8-Hi.

Similar to the previously-mentioned design that both sides worked on, this particular pair also possesses the Silas logo (S) on the base; however, instead of it only being featured on the Vans strip logo, it is seen throughout the entire side panel and collar area.

SURU x DC Life Xander

SURU x DC Life Xander

Skate company DC has released a lot of great non-skate models out of their DC Life label as of late. For fall of 2009, they partnered with retailer SURU on this high top Xander sneaker, with a little help from a certain artist and musician.

Linkin Park’s Mike Shinoda, bandmate of SURU owner Joe Hahn, provided the original artwork for the sole, which is a nice touch for those who only catch a glimpse as the wearer passes by. Like most of the DC Life designs, including the complete Fall Collection we showed you not too long ago, this sneaker maintains a clean design in black and light blue, all over a white vulcanized sole. The SURU logo appears on both the side of the ankle and the tongue. Mike Shinoda’s participation is given its due credit on the tongue as well, making for a total of three logos in that spot. These are limited to 500 pairs, so make sure to get on them quick when they release this holiday season.

Nike Air Max 95 “Comet” + “Slate” for 2010

Posted: 03 Sep 2009 12:58 PM PDT

Nike Air Max 95

This year, Nike has undoubtedly blessed us with classic colorways of the infamous Air Max 95. So far, Nike has unleashed the “Neon”, the “Fresh Water”, the “Chili” and the “Safety Orange”. However, if we deem those colorways ‘classic’, the Air Max 95’s that Nike will re-release next summer are nothing less than epic. During the summer of 2010, Nike will retro the Air Max 95 “Comet” and the Air Max 95 “Slate”. If you recall, these sneakers dropped in 2003 and 2005, respectively. Who else is excited upon hearing these two unmatched re-releasing? Are these two releases better than all of the Air Max 95’s that released this year? Click here to voice your opinion.

Nike Zoom Kobe IV Team

Posted: 03 Sep 2009 10:58 AM PDT

Nike Zoom Kobe IV

Earlier today, we informed you of the Nike Zoom Kobe IV Black/Metallic Gold-Concord that will release on October 17th, 2009. The comment section contained both positive and negative remarks about that specific colorway. However, team colorways of any sneaker are hard to go against, especially when they appeal to your own team colors. With that said, the RMK Store now has all of the Nike Zoom Kobe IV team colorways in stock.

Isn’t it nice to see the Kobe IV in different colorways than the traditional, Lakers-inspired black/purple-gold or white/purple-gold? The team colorways in this post consist of white/royal blue, white/red and black/yellow. In addition, we showed you the white/green version and white/purple colorways in mid-August. Now it is time to convince your respective basketball coaches to supply the team with Kobe IV’s! Click here to view detailed photos of three of the Kobe IV team colorways.

Nike Blazer

Nike Blazer fans have been taken care within the past couple of weeks. There is a lot to look forward to later this year and in 2010 to say the least. Along with the Nike Blazer Mid ND Club Purple we showed you at the end of August, Nike will also release this Nike Blazer High U during the spring of 2010.

As with previous Blazers we have seen, this particular shoe possesses a very simple color scheme and style. The white leather upper contrasts nicely with the all-black sole. In addition, the enlarged swoosh on the side panel is colored in royal blue. As another added feature, this Blazer also contains a premium black mesh inner lining. Although this Blazer will not officially release until 2010, OSneaker now has a size 9 in stock. Click here to view detailed photos.

LimitEDitions x Lacoste Indiana High

Posted: 03 Sep 2009 09:58 AM PDT

LimitEDitions x Lacoste Indiana HighIn what may seem like an unlikely pairing, Lacoste and Spain’s LimitEDitions have paired up on this Lacoste Indiana High sneaker retro.

The high-top tennis shoe’s white base with pink, teal and purple accents keeps the old-school appeal of the originals, which were nearly identical to this retro version. The original can be seen in the fist picture set below. Another small detail changed for 2009 is the placement of the LimitEDition logo on the tongue under Lacoste’s own logo.

It seems like every brand is bringing back classics as of late, and while Lacoste may not be the first choice in sneakers for many, these pair definitely succeeds at channeling an older era.

Original Air Yeezy’s for Doernbecher Auction

Posted: 03 Sep 2009 08:58 AM PDT

Original Air Yeezy's for Doernbecher AuctionJust when you thought you had escaped the Nike Air Yeezy madness, 2009’s biggest attention recipient has been announced as a part of the Doernbecher Charity Auction.

You may remember reading about the Air Jordan 6 Doernbecher Freestyle and the story behind its creation. Proceeds from the auction go to help the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. As mentioned above, it’s been announced that the original Kanye West signature shoe will be included in the auction. Two pairs, in fact.

The first is the black and gum pair Kanye wore at the 2008 Grammy Awards that set the internet on fire with anticipation for the eventual 2009 production versions. According to Chi McBride, who was on hand to announce this news with Jordan Brand Creative Director Mark Smith, Kanye had to give them back to Nike after the awards show. Kanye didn’t even see the second pair of Yeezy’s up to the highest bidder. Like the first pair, they’re all black leather, but these feature an Air Jordan 6 sole, also in all black.

Unless you’re ready to put up your house, car or savings for these super exclusive Nikes, pics will have to do, but rest assured that the absurd amount that is going to be paid for them is going to a great cause.

Jordan 60+ “Laney High School”

Posted: 03 Sep 2009 08:28 AM PDT

Jordan 60+ Laney

Surprisingly, the Jordan 60+ model has been a favorite amongst many people in the sneaker culture. The original colorway, which released at the beginning of August, launched the beginning of the Jordan 60+ releases. A month later, JB will release this Jordan 60+ “Laney High School” on September 19th, 2009. However, you can now find a few sizes on eBay.

First off, this particular sneaker draws most, if not all, of its inspiration from the infamous Air Jordan 5 Retro “Laney High School”. Furthermore, both pairs obviously pay tribute to Michael Jordan’s high school. This Jordan 60+, which takes elements from the the Air Jordan I, the Air Jordan II, the Air Jordan V and the Air Jordan VII, owns a predominately white leather upper with royal blue and varsity maize accents throughout the upper. Likewise, the sole features the same colors. As stated earlier, check out eBay to purchase your pair early.

Nike Air Max LeBron VII Custom by Nyno + The Mayor

Posted: 02 Sep 2009 11:58 AM PDT

lebron-sic-5

Over the past month, we have spotted multiple, customized version of the Nike Air Max LeBron VII from various artist across the world. Until now, all of them have featured an erratic, multi-colored style that was designed by one artist from the respective city. However, the Paris tour stop in the More Than a Game Artist Series carousel brought about a totally different twist to the customization of the Air Max LeBron VII.

Unlike the previous Air Max LeBron VII custom styles, the Paris version contains three different pair which were designed by two artists named ‘Nyno’ and ‘The Mayor’. As for the makeup, all three colorways were simply inspired by attributes in the Paris neighborhoods such as city streets, lights and colors. Specifically, the red and black colorways symbolize the Pigalle area and its dark alleyways and neon lights. In addition, the green pair was supposedly made in honor of the youthful energy of daily life in Paris. It is also very interesting how the colorways tie into LeBron James himself. The red stands for LeBron’s theatrical way of playing, while the black represents his elegance. Last but not least, the green focuses on James’s youth. Is the Paris rendition the best of all the artist collaborations? Click here to view the three-page collection in its entirety.

New Alife for FallNew York’s Alife is back for Fall 2009, remixing their Everybody Hi silhouette with new colors, prints and materials, as well as dropping a new design in the Everybody Mono Applique.

The Everybody Hi Hi-Lite, America’s Cup, Allover, Mono Applique and Mid suede, as well as the more formal chukka-style Chuck Shepard, are all online now at Alife. The Everybody may be a familiar design, but it looks like some there are some fresh takes on the way, whether you’re into the Everybody Hi Allover’s loud white-over-red leather print, or the clean lines of the Chuck Shepard.

As stated above, the Mono Applique is a new design for Alife. It sports a monotone design with vulcanized sole, and leather “alife” branding along the side. This design definitely echoes the skate shoes of old, keeping the lines clean and simple.
