Earlier this week, we gave you a look at an upcoming vibrantly colored Nike Terminator High quickstrike and it appears that it will be bringing company. The turquoise/purple/orange version that we showed you will be joined by another colorway that features a similar color scheme, but on a black base. The second Terminator features a black leather upper and midsole with a turquoise Swoosh and lining, bright pink laces and a touch of purple on the ankle section of the heel. Like the pair we previewed the other day, the upper also flaunts large triangular perforations on the toe box and mid section. Both pairs should be hitting select Nike accounts any day now if they haven’t already. via Hypebeast.

Today here on Sneaker News has been a banner day for the Air Jordan 1. The OG of OGs has appeared here in every imaginable form, and here is a totally new one. The Air Jordan 1 Flight Low is a hybrid of the first and fourth shoes in the iconic Air Jordan Series. Featuring the sole and tongue of the AJ1 along with the plastic eyelet wings that typify Air Jordan IVs, this is yet another hybrid capitalizing on Jordan Brand’s rich legacy.
Each pair features colours and/or patterns that are notoriously Jordan. The white and cement pair features a speckled sole a la Air Jordan III, the black and green joints have a smattering of elephant print made famous on the IVs and the last pair features the classic Chicago Bulls colours. Scheduled for release on the first days of May and June 2009, you can see the retail prices along with style numbers and colours after the jump. Be sure to check back with Sneaker News on the regular and we’ll update you with new pics and release reminders.

With a ton of Air Jordan 1s already revealed or pictured in new views here on Sneaker News today, Jordan Brand keeps on rolling with the shoe that started this whole game. This time, it’s the two newest iterations of the iconic AJ1: the Air Jordan 1 Strap and the Air Jordan 1 Premier. Each type sees two new styles. The AJ1 Strap pairs are both done in canvas, with the Swoosh featuring ragged edges. One rocks a Denver Nuggets-like colourway of black, university blue, white and yellow, while the other keeps the white and favors navy blue and varsity red for an All-American feel.
Meanwhile, the Premium-equivalent Premier pairs live up to their name with lush treatments. One pair is a shiny affair in white and metallic platinum, featuring woven side panels and toes. This theme is also repeated on a velcro-equipped Low. The other High features a lush marbled suede upper quite similar to a beautiful pack of Supras that dropped this week, along with a tonal canvas Swoosh and navy blue accents. All four pairs of these are quite impressive, so the only reason not to get any of them might be that you can’t afford them all. Check the release dates, prices and style numbers after the jump, then save up and keep it locked to Sneaker News.

The Air Jordan 1 is getting plenty of festive treatments for Summer 2009, and what’s more whimsical and fun than polka dots? Here we see four new AJ1s with tiny dots laid over otherwise solid black leather uppers. A pair each of Air Jordan 1 Retro Highs and Air Jordan 1 Phat Lows come with white dots, while the other two pairs of Highs are accented with blue or chlorophyll green dotting and outsoles. The white joints are set for an April Fools Day release, while the blue and green ones will drop on May 1 and June 1, respectively.

We showed you the black pair from this pack earlier, and there was some question as to the inspiration. Some guessed Gucci, whereas your author came to believe the colour and release date might indicate a certain Mexican holiday. Turns out, these are the Air Jordan 1 Cinco de Mayo Pack, complete with a pair each in black or white. The key features of both pairs are the midsole and Swoosh stitching, both of which fade from red to white to green and back again. Throw in the ‘Wings’ logo in those same colours and a green lining on the black pair only, and these do a good job of being both festive and adaptable. Both pairs will drop on May 2nd so you can get em early and be well prepared to party!

As with all Air Jordan Forces and Jordan Brand hybrids in general, the Air Jordan Force IX (AJF9) has polarized the sneakerhead community. Some feel they shouldn’t be done, while others appreciate a breath of new life into what was perhaps the most overlooked shoe in the entire Air Jordan line. Hate it or love it, the AJF9 is picking up steam as we rapidly approach the first releases in April.
On the 11th of that month, we’ll see the first two pairs released. These are pretty similar: white upper and outsole, black tongue and lining. The main difference is that one features a red midsole, lacelocks and heel accent, while the other is university blue. Moving forward into May, a pair in tonal black with a red lining, heel strap and midsole stitch will release on the 9th as the only one for that month. What appears to be the final one for now drops on June 6th, and is quite similar to the one just before it. The main differences here are the white midsole, tongue and outsole on the June joints. Take a look at all the pics after the jump and decide if you wanna set aside some cash for any of all of these when the time(s) come.

Along with the slew of Air Jordan Force IX (AJF9) releases on tap for Summer 2009, Jordan Brand is releasing new editions of their original hybrid: the Air Jordan Dub Zero. First up on April 18 is the cement grey version featuring the speckled midsole elements first seen on the untouchable Air Jordan III. A little over a month later, two new pairs in black will drop. Nearly identical in their use of black midsole, laser-etched panel and patent leather all around, these differ by their use of midsole accents and lining: laser blue for one, taxi on the other. All three feature the newly heightened-contrast laser-etching on the Air Jordan XIII-like side panels, making for a nice revision to this modern classic. Stay tuned to Sneaker News and we’ll remind you with new pictures and places you can cop your own as the releases draw closer.
