Nike Kobe Bryant MVPuppets 4 Rings T Shirts   Charcoal Update

We just received word from Footlocker that a charcoal heather MVPuppets 4 Rings T-Shirt will be available at House of Hoops LA (Beverly Center) and LA area Foot Locker locations this coming Monday afternoon, June 22nd, 2009. This charcoal version is potentially an California exclusive as the yellow is a China exclusive and we are unsure where in the US the black version will be available. Your next best bet out side of these locations is ebay.

Update: The Charcoal Nike Kobe Bryant MVPuppets 4 Rings T-Shirts is now available at lakerstore.com

Nike Zoom Kobe IV   Matador PE   China Colorway

By now, we’ve all seen a ton of colorways of the Zoom Kobe IV, but they keep killing it with more and more. Before you get too excited, the above shoe is probably not ever going to see a retail release. It’s an exclusive PE promo sample in Kobe’s size 14. The shoe features a China colorway like the Hyperdunk and many other kicks worn during last summer’s Olympics in Beijing. This Zoom Kobe IV sports a red upper with black and gold accents and a Carpe Diem tongue logo with a gold bull graphic. A clear white outsole rounds out the look of this stunning sneaker, helping this to be arguably one of the best colorways yet. This sample pair is up on eBay now, so if you want to add this great piece to your collection, you best not hesitate. Via Kenlu.

Nike Blazer Mid ND   Spring 2010 Preview

The Nike Blazer has seen its fair share of colorways lately and from the looks of it, there’s plenty more in store. Here is a look at some of the upcoming spring 2010 Blazer Mid models. There are three different colorways so far in the collection. A grey and red model both use a netted mesh material for the upper with contrasting accents on the lining and tongue. The third model keeps it a little more basic, using a nice leather upper with a black on black color scheme and a clean white midsole. Based on what we are seeing here, it looks like the Blazer will keep going strong. Stay tuned for the latest info on these and more in the coming months and for now, you can get a closer look after the jump. Via CultureShoq.

Air Jordan Flipsyde   White   Cement   Red
Jordan Brand has gradually been sticking their feet in the skate shoe game, and so far, the Flipsyde has been the centerpiece. The shoe obviously borrows elements of the Air Jordan III design, but modifies it for a skate performance and look. This upcoming version takes even more cues from the Air Jordan III, using the iconic White/Cement/Red colorway, complete with Elephant print and all. In an interesting addition, these kicks also feature a Jordan VII-like tongue with red accents. The shoe will be hitting stores in September, but for now, you can see some more pics after the jump.

Nike Air Max 1   Original Colorways QS   Red + Blue   Available

We’ve been keeping you up to date with the latest on the Quickstrike release of the Air Max 1 in its OG colorways and now they are beginning to hit more stores. Both the white/grey/red and white/grey/blue versions of the classic shoe will be hitting Overkill in Berlin on July 1st in limited quantities. Due to Nike restrictions, they will only have 24 pairs of each and they will only be available in-store. If you’re in the area, it might be worth you’re while to take a shot, because these kicks are on a lot of people’s wishlist and who knows when they’ll be back again. Also of note, the Air Maxim 1 will be dropping at Overkill in the same two colorways on July 4th, also in very limited quantities.

Parra x Nike Air Maxim 1 Quickstrike

Dutch artist/illustrator has a pack of Vans on the way either this month or next, and the shoe pictured above is set to drop in August.  Be that as it may, it looks like you can get your hands on certain sizes right now.  The Parra x Air Maxim 1 will be a Quickstrike release when it drops at the end of summer, so it might be worth grabbing them at a premium now.  The Flywire-equipped update of Nike’s original Air Max runner is available in US mens size 9 from Osneaker.

Nike SB Dunk Low x Air Force 1   White Supreme

As with the black pair, same with these, they will never go into production and will never be available to the public.

Earlier today, we got an exclusive, up close look at the Black Supreme version of the ultra-rare Nike SB Dunk Low x Air Force 1.  Those were slightly different than the 2002 originals, but these stick to the script.  The Nike SB Dunk Low x Air Force 1 White Supreme pictured above is something we’ve seen before, but their scarcity demands another look.  It’s rumoured that only six pairs of these exist in the entire world, given as a gift to the original Nike SB riders.  Like the black joints, you simply aren’t getting these, but click the jump below to enjoy the detailed photos.

Jordan Elements   Black + White   Black   Available

Along with the Flight 45, the Jordan Elements has been one of the most warmly embraced non-Retro related or signature models to come around in a while. We’ve recently shown you numerous upcoming versions of the Elements, and now the first two colorways have started to hit stores. Both colorways draw distinct comparisons to some pretty beloved Air Jordan XI models, and when it comes to Jordan kicks, that never hurts. One version sports a white upper with black patent leather wrapping along the bottom and the other features a black on black upper with a solid white midsole. If you’re feeling these, both pairs are available now at FinishLine.

Nike SB Dunk Low x Air Force 1   Black Supreme
Just so this is clear, no, these will never go into production and will never be available to the public.

Back in late 2008 DJ Clark Kent grabbed us at an event and gave us a brief glimpse at these amazing mashups. The Nike SB Dunk Low x Air Force 1 pictured above mixes the legendary black and red Supreme Dunk Low design with an AF1 sole.  These are noticeably different from DJ Clark Kent’s version though, riding a black midsole instead of the previously white design, of course with out hurting any feelings, the DJ CK version with the white midsole is much nicer.  As with those earlier joints, you have about zero chance of getting these.  In any case, click the jump for more photos and let us know, do you prefer these or the white-midsoled version?

Nike Air Max+ 2009   Black   Grey   Gold

With all the attention on Nike’s Air Max 1 retros this summer, their flagship model might be easy to overlook.  Then again, with a design like this, no one’s likely to miss the Nike Air Max+ 2009.  This edition comes in a black and grey palette that smoothly blends the two colours across its Flywire-equipped side panels.  Toss in a bit of gold on the Swooshes and tongue and these are a clear winner.  They’re available now from Chapter Express.

Color: Black/Metallic Gold-Medium Grey-Neutral Grey
