With a dope new edition of the Nike Hypermax evoking its memorable marketing campaign, it was only a matter of time before this model received the retro treatment. The Nike Air Max2 CB 34 appears here in a dope silver-on-white colourway that’s perfect for summer. The delicate colouring is an interesting foil for the shoe’s otherwise rugged design. Among the signature features are the sparse eyelets, balanced by elastic straps that keep the fit snug. Get your ‘Round Mound of Rebound’ on now by copping these from Vault.

We were excited to see a slightly modified version of this classic colourway release in women’s sizes a couple days ago, but it’s even better to have the original in a full sized run. The Nike Air Classic BW in Persian violet dropped in most parts of the world but never hit the United States. This very official colorway has finally started to hit US based retailers, if you have been waiting, start looking for them at US based Nike retailers including Vault.

Converse has recently been making a respectable effort in terms of branching out into the skate shoe game, following Nike’s lead by updating some of their classic models for improved skateability. You may have already seen the white leather Weapon Hi X that we previewed last month and this time around it’s the ERX 300 Hi getting the skate treatment. The shoe features a white on white upper with minimal orange highlights on the CONS tongue label and a matching set of bright orange laces. Some other nice added touches are the embossed ERX 300 logo on the ankle strap and a classic All Star tab on the heel section of the midsole. If you’re feeling these for skating or just hanging out, you can pick up a pair now at Premier.

With the Blazer taking the lead on Nike releases of late, the Dunk is currently occupying an unfamiliar backseat. While we’re not sure of the exact ratio of releases for the future, joints like these are sure to earn the Dunk its share of shine. These joints only have three colours, but still have alot to offer. The white side panels offer a more dense perforations than the similarly coloured toes, while a cris-crossing stitch pattern on the black rear quarter/heel area adds texture. Throw in neon orange accent and these make for an interesting look. Expect them to drop during the Fall 2009 season. via HS

Yesterday, you got a look at a new Nike Blazer SB and a bright new colorway of the SB Classic and we already previewed some other May SB releases last week. Now it’s time for some more May magic from Nike SB. You have probably seen some of these already, but now they have finally begun to hit stores. Along with the fresh Dunk Low and Zoom Harbor are the Ice Green Dunk Mid and the slick black/pink Air Trainer TW II. In the case of the Trainer, it was unknown if these would release in the U.S. or just Asia, so their presence is definitely a nice surprise. All four SB models are available now at Poets.

New Balance is definitely known for their vast arsenal of running models, but at one time they made their share of basketball kicks as well. New Balance is reminding sneakerheads of their basketball prowess with the return of the BB730 in two new limited edition colorways. Granted, this is now more of a lifestyle shoe than a performance b-ball sneaker, but it is always nice to have another high-top option, especially from this somewhat unlikely source. The shoe has just dropped in black/purple/white and brown/beige/white colorways and can be found at select New Balance retailers such as Ripe.

With a lowtop of the Chad Muska Pro Model prompting a naming shift to ‘Skylow’, it was only a matter of time before we saw more of Supra’s staples in low versions. The Supra Vaider Low appears here in three colours to help keep your feet cool this summer. There’s one in red suede, another in white leather and a black mix of the two fabrics with Tiffany blue accents. If you’re looking for a break from the ultra-hightop craze, cop these now from CCS.

The Air Jordan 1 Phat Low Polka Dot Pack keeps on growing and it looks like the rarely utilized chlorphyll is getting a little more attention as well. The unique green hue is featured in pin-sized dots all over the white leather upper, as well as the laces, outsole and other accents. All white side panels, toes and midsoles balance these nicely. Set for an official release in June, you can grab these now from Kinetics.

If you wanna feel cool this summer, look no further. The ALIFE Chuck appears above in a dope tonal blue canvas and suede construction. The forefoot is darker azure in suede while the rear gives way to a relatively lighter shade made of canvas. A nice blue stitch joins the upper to a white cup sole. These are set to drop at ALIFE retailers like Standard in the coming days. via CtotheJL

As it turns out, there are a few more on the way in addition to the May 2009 Nike SB releases we showed you last week. The Blazer was conspicious by its absence in that earlier preview, but the extra time was well spent. This pair is sure to satisfy in a mix of rich red suede and black leather. Joining this ‘Bred’ beauty is a pair of Nike SB Classics. A clean look for summer, the white leather upper features black, baby blue and pink accents. As with the other SB drops, you can cop these now from CCS.
