New Balance is keeping it ultra-crisp on this luxurious M575J model. The shoe sticks to a basic white on white theme for the most part, using an ostrich skin leather material on the majority of the upper. Besides the ostrich leather, this M575J sports some other classy touches like the white on white leather tongue, the metal eyelet rings and the squared off boat shoe-style laces. The only accents come by way of a black speckled spray that appears on the rear half of the midsole. These super-clean kicks are a limited edition release, but lucky for you, they are in stock right now at Choko, so don’t sleep.

Nike has impressed us with some OG looks on the Air Max 95 lately, but who knew their definition of ‘opposite’ is ‘instant classic’? This new pair of Nike Air Max 95s inverts the classic black-grey-white gradient to great effect. Adding hot red touches on the eyelets, laces, Swooshes and Air bubbles, these joints are sure to cause more than a few double-takes. They’re set to drop next month this coming October 2009 at retailers like Foot Locker.

Having seen a few dope releases already this year, the Nike Tennis Classic is back for more. This pair is done in a mix of mesh and leather, and of course, they’re mostly white. The mesh side panels are a nice contrast, adding texture to the otherwise leather upper, but the touches of sport red on the tongue, heel and outsole are what make this pair a standout. Absolutely perfect for late spring and summer, these joints are available now at Sneakers N Stuff. via SneakersBR

Vans and German sneaker giants, Solebox, have come together to create a very special collaboration sneaker. We showed you a sneak peek of these last month and now we have a detailed look at this creative endeavor. The Old Skool was chosen to be the subject of this project because of its legendary, yet underrated status. The shoe features a funky black and white plaid fabric on the upper with a white midsole and red accents. A dove graphic was chosen for the tongue logo as a universal symbol of peace and a Solebox logo appears on the insole. This Old Skool has been upgraded from the classic version with a Vans Vault footbed for improved comfort. Unfortunately, these kicks will be limited to only 60 pairs when they drop in May, so continue to check Sneaker News and Solebox for the specific release date. Via CrookedTongues.

Hip-hop producer extraordinaire, 9th Wonder, has teamed up with Puma for an interesting new sneaker collaboration. The shoe uses a simple black upper for its base, but the shoe is loaded with fresh touches. The shoe features a black on black 9 on the side of the upper on one side, with a shout out to 9th Wonder’s Justus League crew on the other and a “J” and “L” on the respective heels of the left and right shoe. This sneaker also sports a clear midsole and red, white and blue stitching on the Puma stripe and on alternating eyelet rings. As if that wasn’t enough, there are some more personal touches inside the tongue, on the insole and there is even a 919 area code nod on the sole. No word if these will be available for retail, but we will keep you posted. Via CliffNotes.

If you’re a fan of the Nike ACG Wild Peg hybrid shoe, get ready for the wildest colorway yet. The Air Wildwood and Air Pegasus have both been making nice comebacks in 2009 and although they may be a somewhat unlikely pairing, everything came together nicely on the Wild Peg. We’ve already shown you a few Wild Peg colorways, but this one is by far the boldest. The shoe features a black base with several vibrant accent colors thrown into the mix. Bright shades of Turquoise, Pink and Volt Yellow adorn various sections of the upper and really pop against the black foundation. If you want to stick out in the crowd this spring, you can pick up a pair now at EastWestWorldwide. Via HighSnobiety.

You may have already seen our previews of the Air Max 1 and the Blazer Mid from Nike’s Lunar Pack, but now that they have begun to hit stores, some more images have begun to pop up. Nike will recognize the 40th anniversary of Neil Armstrong walking on the moon with two lunar-inspired models. The Air Max 1 sports a black leather upper with a mesh black toe box and a metallic silver midsole and accents, but the standout feature of these kicks is the moon crater design that is embossed into the mudguard. The Blazer Mid also features a black base with neon yellow laces and stitching, as well as a white midsole and a metallic silver Swoosh that also flaunts a crater-like texture. Both pairs are now available at Standard.

A number of Nike and Jordan Brand samples will often be leaked through various channels whether it’s the factory or someone’s favorite “cousin” at Nike, the latest sample to be leaked is this Air Jordan XV in Black and Varsity Red, with the Woven material on the shoe’s upper coming in Varsity Red. This colorway was never released and is actually a look see sample, which is another way of saying that these shoes are extremely limited. via Kenlu

Last week, we gave you a preview of this fresh new Air Max 90 colorway and now we have some more images for you to sink your teeth into. The shoe pulls off a classic look by sticking to a traditional color scheme. This Air Max 90 features a white leather base with sections of white mesh and a black side panel at the bottom edge of the upper. Crisp royal blue accents are sprinkled throughout the design on the Swoosh, eyelet panels and a few other choice spots like the midsole section around the Air bubble. If you’ve been checking for availability ever since you saw these last week, be advised that they have already been released at select Nike retailers such as Purchaze.
