| New Balance 998 Grey/Navy Blue/Red-White Posted: 07 Feb 2010 11:43 AM PST  It is safe to say the 998 Grey/Purple was one of the better New Balance sneakers that released in 2009. We rarely see the New Balance 998; yet, when it does release, it is seen in some nice colorways. Enter in this newly-released New Balance 998 colorway. It possesses a mainly grey suede base combined with a couple of navy blue mesh areas on the toe box and collar area. The latter sections are also accompanied by navy blue hints on the heel panel and outsole. Other features include a white inner lining, white shoelaces, a red, white and blue ‘Made In USA‘ tongue logo and a multi-colored midsole that features red, white and grey. This New Balance 998 is now available at select retailers such as Mita. Click here to view additional photos. | Read the rest of New Balance 998 Grey/Navy Blue/Red-White

| Nike Air Trainer SC 2010 - Player Edition Series Posted: 06 Feb 2010 08:38 PM PST  Nike has orchestrated an impressive campaign for introducing the Air Trainer SC 2010. The Swoosh began last year with the retro release of the Air Trainer SC in order to garner attention for this decade’s mutation. Since then, they have peppered the public with rousing colorways such as the Baseball Gloves, the Pro Bowls, and the Bo Knows Pack. Now taking their place amongst these colorways are the make-ups of the Player Edition Series. Nike has constructed unique color-ups of this new-age trainer for three of their athletes. Two of these athletes, LaDainian Tomlinson and Adrian Peterson, put in work as running backs on the gridiron whereas the third, Brian Clay, demonstrates raw stamina and an arsenal of talents as a decathlete. You can find multiple photos of each athlete’s player edition on the flipside. If any or all of these shoes fit your fancy, you may purchase them for $110 at select Nike retailers. | Read the rest of Nike Air Trainer SC 2010 - Player Edition Series

| UNDFTD x Gourmet Quattro Posted: 06 Feb 2010 06:54 PM PST  As a piece in their Spring 2010 Collection, Gourmet announces their first collaboration, the Quattro UNDFTD. This particular Quattro remains consistent with the rest of the collection by pairing design minimalism with premium materials. The seamless upper is wholly white, linen printed full grain leather. The midsole, lining, and tongue are visually defined by a contrast of black against the white upper. The red laces lay as the focal point because they sit centered on a blank background. While they are not pictured, three other pairs of laces are included with the shoes. They are royal, black, and white. The Quattro UNDFTD will release on February 15 at UNDFTD and a few other US retailers. They will also release overseas in the UK, Europe, and Asia on February 22. | Read the rest of UNDFTD x Gourmet Quattro
