As with many timeless Nike models, there’s something about a clean white colorway that just looks so right. This Blazer High sports a white pebbled leather upper with a navy patent leather Swoosh and a solid navy midsole. Additional red accents can be found on the tongue label and heel branding, as well as the contrast stitching on the Swoosh, giving this Blazer a nice classic look with some patriotic appeal. After all the wild colorways of the Blazer that have come out recently, a lot of folks have been longing for a crisp and basic Blazer, so here you go. If you’re feeling these, they’re available now on eBay. Photos: 95Soleman.

There have been a lot of complaints lately about recent Dunk releases, but when you consider how many different colorways have dropped over the years, you have to accept that not every one is going to be a home run. This new version, however, has a lot going for it. The shoe features a very interesting color scheme with the upper split between sections of Voltage Yellow and Midnight Blue and a set of orange laces to throw some extra flavor into the mix. For those of you who remember, these are some what reminiscent of the Marge Simpson Dunk High SB from July 2008. Aside from the cool color combination, this Dunk also benefits from a nice perforated pattern that appears on the mid panel and around the ankle. These kicks are expected to release at select retailers in the near future, but you can already pick up a pair now on eBay. Photos via 95Soleman.

After the wild success of the Air Griffey Max 1 Retro over the last few months, we got to thinking about what other Air Griffey Retros we might want to see in the future. Ken Griffey Jr. definitely had his share of fresh signature Nike kicks over the years, and now that the line is making a comeback, a lot of people are speculating on what other Griffey models will be returning to stores. One of the front-runners has to be the Air Griffey Max GD II, a shoe that released almost 10 years ago, but still has a loyal fan base. With its sleek design and full sole Air Max unit, the shoe still holds up against the look and performance of today’s models and might make for an interesting Retro release.
Check out some more pics of the original colorways after the jump and let us know if you’d like to see the Air Griffey Max GD II hit shelves again.

The Air Jordan Force IV has been relatively well received for a Fusion model, and while we’ve all seen the head-turning Red/Cement version, most of the other colorways are based on the originals. This girls’ model, however, definitely goes in a different direction, choosing to do its own thing when it comes to color. The shoe features a white upper with royal and yellow accents and a multi-colored speckled design on the midsole. Additional dark pink touches can be spotted on the tongue label, lace locks and the stitching on the midsole. The above picture is a sample version that appears to have since been altered based on the additional images after the jump. It seems that the upper is now constructed from white patent leather and the yellow Swoosh inside the midpanel has been removed. These are expected to drop in the near future, so we should have some more pics of the finished product soon.

Yesterday, we brought you some news on the White/Sea Green Air Jordan 1 Retro High from the upcoming Do The Right Thing Pack and now we get another look at the release version of the White/Red edition. The shoe sports a White pebbled leather upper with Varsity Red and Metallic Red accents. Please note that the final version does not feature the wild colorful lining that appeared on early samples, but there are some other cool additions to help make up for it. To compensate for the missing lining, these kicks will come with a classic Air Jordan hangtag and both red and white laces. As stated in previous posts, these are not scheduled to drop until early July, but if you can’t wait, they have already poopped up on eBay. Photos via 95Soleman. Also available on Nikestore.

Nike continues to keep coming up with fresh looks for the classic Air Max 90 model. This pair uses a combination of suede and mesh on the Cool Grey upper with some contrasting White touches on the Swoosh and eyelet panels. Additional White hits can be found on the tongue, lining and laces and a striking Hyper Blue hue covers the midsole and a few other choice spots. These kicks have a real crisp look that arguably has the beloved shoe looking as good as ever. If you’re feeling these, you can scoop up a pair now on eBay. Via 95Soleman.

We gave you a look at this Air Classic BW a few weeks ago, and since then another version of the shoe popped up that also uses some Safari touches. With these new images, we get a better look at some of the finer details. This Air Classic BW features a black leather upper with sections of black mesh on the toe box and midpanel. The black base is then contrasted by a white Swoosh and lining and a metallic silver midsole, but the most noteworthy aspect of the shoe has to be the Safari print tongue, which features a purple lining and branding. Additional purple can be found in a few other spots and some silver laces round out the color scheme. If you’ve had your eye on these since our last preview, be advised that they are already available now on eBay. Photos via 95Soleman.

There are seven deadly sins, but if you’re releasing a pack of shoes with those as the inspiration, you can’t divide them up evenly. So, here we see the first three of Reebok’s Pump Omni Lite 7 Deadly Sins pack: electric yellow, purple and azure. These tonal releases represent greed, pride and sloth, respectively. Each has a mix of suede, leather and a striped material that looks to be corderoy on the upper. The other sinful sneakers are set to drop in August and September, but EastWest Worldwide has these three in stock now.

As some of you die hard Michael Jordan fans may know, MJ will be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame later this year and to celebrate MJ’s induction, Jordan Brand created two shoes as a part of the Hall of Fame pack. The first shoe is the Air Jordan Six (6) Rings, which comes in Black, Gold, and Red and features a numbers graphic on the shoe’s midsole wrap. This is one of the better colorways of the Six Rings we’ve seen and the fact that it’s rather limited and celebrating MJ’s induction into the HOF, this shoe might be tough to come by when it’s released later this year. If you want to pick them up now though, you can do so via the RMKstore

Last week, we showed you a look at a Superman-inspired Air Classic BW and it appears that Nike isn’t finished paying tribute to some of our favorite superheroes. Obviously, you can’t have a Superman shoe without a pair of Batman kicks too. For the Batman edition, Nike chose to use the Vandal High, decking it out in an official Caped Crusader colorway. The shoe features a dark grey upper with black leather piping around the edges and a section of shiny black patent covering the entire heel panel. To finish off the Batman color scheme, there are some minimal yellow accents on the ankle strap and tongue label, as well as the contrast stitching on the midsole and the outline around the Swoosh. Unfortunately, these will only be available in boys’ sizes, so if you have kids or very small feet, you can pre-order a pair now on eBay.
