With their frayed stitches and scuffed leather, this pair of Puma Easy Rider Vintage runners is as rough around the edges as the main characters of the movie from which they borrowed the name. This pair appears with a tonal brown upper, contrasting chocolate leather with a lighter shade of nylon laid beneath. The white midsoles and laces are both pre-yellowed to cement that classic vintage look. With only 550 pairs available worldwide, these are a tough cop, but you can find US sizes 9 and 10 at Sneakers n Stuff.

Lately we have seen much to do about the Air Jordan V, with a Defining Moments pack and patent leather version bringing Jordan’s fifth signature shoe into the limelight of most sneaker heads’ near future copping contemplations. These Vs, however, might make it into your contemplation but it will be highly unlikely that such contemplations will come to fruition as these Phoenix Suns Air Jordan Vs were designed exclusively for Shawn Marion.
During the 9 years his small/power forward skills were utilized by the Suns, Marion was fortunate enough to get his share of Jordan Brand PEs, including these home and away colored Air Jordan Vs. Purple and orange are used on the out-sole/mid-sole while the inner being colored with purple. Enjoy the picture above and after the jump, because these types of PEs don’t come around too often. via SpurSniperSeven of NikeTalk

We showed you Clae’s Spring 2009 collection back in February, and we’re starting to see them in stores. Among the new drops are a pair of camel brown McQueens pictured above, featuring just-darker-than-seafoam green accents. There are three pairs of new Russel midtops, with one in white leather and a pair each in navy blue and black ballistic nylon. Brown and black pairs of Romares round up the lineup. You can cop any or all of these now at Clae retailers like Vault.

Like the Terminator Low that we showed you earlier, this Nike Terminator Hi Premium ND is part of an upcoming pack that uses an interesting pattern that is not quite Elephant and definitely not Safari, but has the feel of something in that neighborhood. Unlike the Terminator Low, which uses the pattern only on certain panels, this high model is entirely covered with the print, also using various sizes and color combinations to bring it to life. The pattern covers much of the upper in shades of grey, white and metallic platinum with a solid white Swoosh, midsole and laces to balance the design. A few Hyper Verde accents are also thrown in to add a little color to the mix. Like the low model, these are set to drop on April 4th, but you can get them now at SasakuraSports.

The Terminator Low doesn’t seem to get to have as much fun as some other Nike Retro models, but it looks like that is gradually changing. The Mint Safari edition that we showed you last month has apparently opened up new doors for the Terminator Low, as evidenced by this new Premium ND model. This shoe will be part of an upcoming pack that uses a new organic-looking pattern that appears in all different sizes and colors on different sections of the sneaker. With the exception of the solid white toe box, Swoosh and midsole, the pattern appears in various shades of grey and green throughout, with some bright green laces to help bring it all together. These are scheduled for release on April 4th, but SasakuraSports has them in stock already.

Earlier today, we got a glimpse of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High Polka Dots, and these are relatively bizarro. This pair of Air Jordan 1 Phat Lows flips the black and white colour scheme. The white midsole/black outsole stays the same, but all of the other aspects have been inverted. One other thing remains the same: though they’re set for an official release on April 1st, 2009, but you can get these now at select retailers. via Sneak

It seems crazy that with all the retro madness that has gone on in recent years, the Nike Air Pegasus ’89 has been paid very little attention. A few months back, we showed you a preview of some new colorways of the Pegasus, much to the delight of the Nike purists who were actually rocking them in 1989. Two new versions have recently hit the shelves, hopefully sparking the beginning of what has been a long-awaited comeback. In an effort to bring them more up to date with today’s wilder color palettes, one new version of the Air Pegasus adds some vibrant Rave Pink accents to a muted grey/white upper and midsole. The other new colorway is more in line with the traditional look of the original Pegasus, using Medium Blue to offset the light grey/white base colors. Both pairs are available now at atmos and we can only hope that more are on the way.

Continuing with the theme of white plus black and a single team colour, the Nike Playoff Pack adds Dirk Nowitzki’s signature Nike Air Max Spot Up. Along with the two base colours, we see an outline of the Swoosh and laces woven with Dallas Mavericks blue. A circular emblem featuring Dirk’s number, 41, and a very German-looking eagle appears on the outer heel. Dirk’s Mavs are currently ahead of Steve Nash‘s Phoenix Suns by 3.5 games for the eighth and final playoff spot in the top-heavy Western Conference, but we’ll have to wait and see which one actually gets to rock his Playoff Pack kicks on-court. via Kenlu

We showed you two Air Jordan 1s available ahead of the official release, so let’s add one more and make three the magic number. This pair of Air Jordan 1 Retro High Premiers bear the unmistakable mark of quality found on Jordan Brand’s highest recurring tier. Featuring woven side panels and toes, these platinum and white joints make for a killer Easter kick. If you don’t wanna wait until the stateside release, we found them at Japanese e-tailer Sneak.

The Nike Zoom LeBron VI has gotten a lot of special attention from the designers at Nike Basketball and it looks like the are becoming relatively generous with all the different styles in regards to releases outside basketball locker rooms. Back in February we showed you the LeBron VI Superman edition that was supposedly a player exclusive, but it seems as though it will be available to the fans in the near future. The shoe has a mostly blue upper with a golden Swoosh and a white, patent leather toe-box. On the mid-sole you will find the tri-colored stitching and an out-sole done up with blue, red and yellow. Luckily for all you LeBron fans, these will be available today at all three House of Hoops so you will have a chance to cop your pair. Even though Dwight Howard and Sahq seem to be fighting over the title of Superman in the NBA realm, there is no doubt LeBron is on the verge of superhero status (if not there already). via FootlockerUnlocked
