Etnies and Disney, two titans in their respective fields, have come together to collaborate on a new project. The Etnies x Disney Co:Labs initiative will launch with a four pack of sneakers featuring beloved Disney characters and imagery. For men, there will be four different styles available. The high-top Upsetter and low-top Sly will each come in both brown and grey/purple colorways with visions of Mickey Mouse and Fantasia gracing the uppers.

By now, you’ve probably already seen the White Men Can’t Jump and Teen Wolf installments of the Nike Media Pack. Completing the trilogy, the Nike Blazer will pay respect to the Oscar-winning film, Hoosiers. The 1986 movie, starring Gene Hackman and Dennis Hopper, told the emotional and inspiring story of a small-town high school basketball team and its coaches overcoming adversity in 1950′s Indiana.
With its old-school basketball style, the Blazer was the perfect choice to represent the Hickory Huskers’ red and gold uniforms and the black sole is a nice step towards balancing vintage with contemporary. The Blazer has been getting a ton of new looks lately and it looks like these will be among the best. A basketball movie themed Nike pack would not have been complete without a tribute to one of the greatest sports movies of all time. Available now at House of Hoops and coming soon to Osneaker.

Last summer, former Adidas heavyweight and current fashion designer, Michael Michalsky teamed up with New Balance to create a special sneaker for his show at the Berlin Fashion Week. Photos surfaced a few months back and the New Balance heads were buzzing. Now we get a better look at the sneaker, but also bring you the bad news that these were a one shot deal and will not be released to the public. via sneakerb0b.

Fresh out of this year’s Bread & Butter tradeshow comes some previews of the New Balance Fall 2009 line up. The pick of the litter appears to be a 1500′s pack, consisting of 4 slick new colorways. The white/beige and white/navy versions convey that classic conservative New Balance feel, while the black/lime and black/purple are a bit wilder. All 4 seem to feature a combination of suede, mesh and smooth leather. If you like what you see, keep an eye out this fall at select New Balance dealers.

A few days ago, preview photos of the upcoming Air Max 90 Current Huarache were unleashed on niketalk, we just got a pair of these in this morning and they are just amazingly comfortable. This is because, this Air Max 90 Current borrows the Huarache technology. From the photo above you can see the use of the Huarache neoprene bootie that makes up the tongue and surrounds the inner midfoot. The rest of the upper body features black synthetic suede and ballistic mesh and even a few strands of Flywire. The sneaker is lined with neoprene in the back half of the sneakers and is lined with nylon in the toe area making for a incredibly comfortable and light weight all around sneaker. The Nike Air Max 90 Current Huarache will release Fall 2009.
Color: Black/Black-Neutral Grey
