Earlier today, we gave you a look at a new Air Widwood with some fashionable touches, but this upcoming “Woven” pack takes the Wildwood, as well as the Terminator High, to new heights of luxury. This new Air Wildwood and Terminator High are both constructed from premium materials and dipped in a muted earth-tone color scheme. Both pairs feature brown and beige uppers with certain sections in wrinkled leather and others in a tastefully decorative woven pattern. The Terminator High Supreme sports brown laces and rust colored accents, while the Air Wildwood Premium shows off metallic gold highlights and tonal off-white laces. Both shoes have a classy look with versatile applications and will no doubt be a big hit when they arrive at atmos on April 4th. via HighSnobiety.

We’ve seen a swell in sneaker art lately, so how about some art on sneakers? American illustrators Kozyndan got back up with Puma to lay some drawings atop two pairs of Puma El Reys. The results are quite impressive. Knd’s quirky style appears in a black and white pair depicting an eight-legged rabbit-monster on the rampage while the colourful pair features the same creature wreaking havoc on a city that looks something like London. What they’re actually trying to get across here is a mystery, and that’s why we love art in the first place. Take a look at the pics after the jump so you can decide for yourself, and stick with Sneaker News for updates on these crazy kicks. via Kenlu

‘Toned-down’ and ‘Bape’ probably aren’t words that you’d associate together. Well, these latest pairs, relative to their legacy, are just that. Still featuring bright patent leather with a sparkly coat, these two-toned A Bathing Ape Bapestas are about as subdued as the Japanese brand gets. Each features a translucent speckled sole that isn’t exactly ‘Icey’, but looks nifty nonetheless. You can cop these now at any Bape Chapter Store. via HB

The talk of the internet sneaker websites as of this past week has been around the newest Nike SB x Supreme collaboration. This time Supreme is helping Nike SB launch their newest SB sneaker, the Nike SB Bruin, which is a similar shoe to the Blazer Low. The upper is a bit different but they both feature a vulcanized outsole. The Nike SB x Supreme Bruin will come in four different colorways including Black, Red, Green, and White. Each shoe features “World Famous” on the back of the shoes as well as “Supreme” on the outsole. Additionally you can find a double-label keychain on every shoe. Make sure you get your camping gear ready as these will be released on April 16th, 2009 at Supreme New York and LA. via Complex

With all the layers and sections of the Nike Air Max 95, there are so many possibilities for color combinations and by now, countless concepts have been explored. With all the wild and colorful versions that have been released over the years, it’s nice when a more solid colorway comes along to simplify the look and draw the attention more to the shoe’s silhouette rather than the colors that make it up. This Air Max 95 features a black on black upper and midsole with bright Electro Lime accents that really pop in contrast. The sneaker also has a reflective silver tongue and matching netted area around the eyelets. If you’ve been waiting for another simple Air Max 95 colorway to come along, you can pick up a pair now at JDsports.

The Nike Air Wildwood has made a major comeback in the last year or so with a bunch of interesting new colorways. As one of the charter members of the ACG family, it was only a matter of time before the Air Wildwood was retroed back into sneakerheads’ current rotation. This newest colorway bears some definite color scheme similarities to the Nintendo-inspired version from late last year, but this pair has more of a luxurious premium feel thanks to the snakeskin Swoosh. Aside from the snakeskin material, the shoe is fairly clean and simple with a white leather upper that is contrasted by black on the toe and heel and a grey midsole. If you like what you see, you can get yours now on eBay.

Nike will be releasing a new Tier 0 shoe in April and it’s a new colorway of the Air Footscape Woven. The Air Footscape Woven is one of the most popular shoes in Asia and amongst serious sneakerheads here in the US but has always been slept on. This new colorway is a clean White and Black colorway that features an upper which uses a similar Stripe pattern to that of the Air Max 1 and Air Footscape that were released not too long ago. You can pick up these new Air Footscape Woven’s at select Nike Tier 0 accounts including LimitedEdt. via Hypebeast

If sheer number of releases were the mark of brand dominance, Jordan Brand would have a surprising rival. Vans has released a ton of new kicks lately and including their premium Vault collection, there’s something for everyone. We saw their Chukka releases for springtime on Friday. There was a representative from the questionably named Khaki Pack, one in light beige (this one looks more like ‘khaki’ to us) and another with an eye-poppingly patriotic design. As it turns out, the last one is part of a pack and today we see the rest.
The Vans Angle Stripe Pack includes the aforementioned Chukka, a pair of Authentics and their classic Slip-Ons. All Three feature blue toes and tongues to provide a solid jump-off for the crazy red and white staggered stripes. Throw in white laces (except the Slip-Ons, of course) and the signature white vulcanized rubber sole and these joints represent Vans’ status as American icons. Ironically enough, we found these at Japanese e-tailer ripe, but you can cop the Chukkas at NYC’s own Dave’s Quality Meats, so we expect them and other nearby Vans retailers to stock the other two pairs soon.
