Nike Terminator High Basic   Fade Pack

The Terminator High Basic is back with another round of interesting colorways. This latest pack features three different versions that all apply the same design concepts. The standout feature of these kicks is that they all sport gradient coloring on the upper that fades from one color into another. All three colorways sport a white toe box, Swoosh and midsole, but the rest of the color schemes are very different from one to the next. The Terminator High will be available in red/white/black, black/white/orange and grey/white/purple, giving the shoe some very different looks despite the color blocking similarities. If you are a fan of one or all of these models, you can pick up all three right now at atmos.

Celebrity Feet: Chris Pine   Air Jordan I Retro Max Orange

Star Trek actor, Chris Pine (Captain James T. Kirk), was seen out in Los Angeles wearing a pair of these Air Jordan I Retro’s in Black and Max Orange. Of course for those of you who saw Star Trek might have caught a familiar looking sneaker on the young James T. Kirk (not Pine), he wore a pair of Air Jordan XX3 in an early scene. Chris Pine who will also be featured in the new upcoming movie, Unstoppable, which features Lakers fan, Denzel Washington, has been seen wearing a number of different sneakers while out in LA, but this is the first time we’ve seen him in some heat. These Air Jordan I’s are one of the best ones to come from the Jordan Brand this year and they don’t look too bad on Chris Pine. via Just Jared

Air Jordan 2.5 Team   Black   Yellow

We’ve seen a ton of elephant print lately, and here’s another yellow application.  The Air Jordan 2.5 Team appears above in a nice mix of black and yellow.  The upper consists of suede at the top and patent leather at the bottom, broken up by black and yellow elephant skin in a strip around the middle.  The upper eyelets and outsole are a deeper golden colour, adding a tonal flare and some balance to this effort.  Stick with Sneaker News and we’ll let you know when these release.  via FlightClub

Air Jordan VII 60+ Pack   Bulls vs. Magic   New Photos

Last month, we showed you a preview of the Black/Charcoal/Red Air Jordan VII from the upcoming Bulls vs. Magic 60+ Pack, and after seeing the Bulls colorway, we know that you’ve been dying for a peek at the Magic edition. Like the Bulls vs. Celtics Air Jordan 1 60+ Pack, the Air Jordan VII editions will also pay tribute to one of Michael’s 60 point games, in this case, a 64 point performance against the Orlando Magic  in January of 1993 to be exact. Both a Bulls and Magic version of the shoe will be packaged together in a box that resembles the Bull’s home floor. Now that we are finally able to give you a glimpse of the Magic colorway, you will see that the shoe uses a white leather upper with black and royal accents and a pinstriped tongue to match the Orlando uniform. The pack will not be hitting retailers until late August, but we will be sure to keep you posted on all the latest on this intriguing offering from Jordan Brand. For now, you’ll have to settle for drooling over some more pics after the jump.

Release Date: 08/22/2009

Nike SB Dunk Low Premium   Blue Lobster   Retail Edition @ DQM

We’ve been keeping you in the loop on the Nike SB Blue Lobster Dunk saga, and after last weekend’s special Concepts release in Boston, the instantly coveted kicks have now started to hit other Nike SB retailers. To the disappointment of many, even though the retail version of the shoe is the same, they will not come in the special Concepts package. Instead, the Blue Lobsters will be caged by your everyday ordinary blue Nike SB box, hardly a safe bet to keep those dangerous creatures contained, but if you’re still lucky enough to get a pair, it’s a small consolation. These just hit DQM and will likely be arriving at a few other SB accounts soon, so we’ll be sure to keep you posted on further availability and happy lobster hunting to all.

Air Jordan Spizike   Black   Varsity Red   Cement   A Closer Look

To the surprise of pretty much no one, this latest Air Jordan Spiz’ike set the web on fire a few days ago after the first sample images began to leak out. Now we have some detailed closeups for you to sink your teeth into and from the looks of these pics, most sneakerheads will not be disappointed. The Spiz’ike is by far the most respected and accepted Jordan hybrid thanks to its use of so many elements from the beloved early Air Jordan models. Based on that, it seems like a no-brainer that this classic Air Jordan IV colorway will cause havoc on its release date.

Some of the Spiz’ikes tend to get a little busy with color, so it’s very refreshing to see another version that takes a simple OG approach. These kicks are not scheduled for release until February of 2010, but Osneaker is expecting to get some early, so stayed tuned and we’ll be sure to let you know when these start to become available. While you’re waiting, you can check out some more pics of these stunners after the jump.

Nike Air Max 90   Yellow Crocodile Skin
We’ve recently seen several interesting crocodile skin editions of the Air Max 90 in a bunch of different colorways from white to metallic gold. This latest version sports a rich yellow croc skin upper with the only accents coming by way of the white sections of the midsole and the black outsole. Like the others, the completely solid colorway gives the classic silhouette a chance to show off, and the fact that it does so in bright yellow croc fashion doesn’t hurt the cause. Also, similar to the other crocodile skin Air Max 90′s, these kicks are super-rare samples that are not expected to ever be released for retail. That said, if you can’t live without these after gazing upon them, Osneaker has got you covered with a size 9 in stock right now, so don’t hesitate.

Nike Alpholution Supreme TF   G.I. Joe Pack

Some of you may remember Nike’s original G.I. Joe pack from 2007, and now that there is an upcoming G.I. Joe movie to promote, some more kicks inspired by the popular 80′s cartoon will soon be popping up. Like the Transformers 2 pack that we showed you last month, there will also be three different models paying tribute to G.I. Joe. Along with the Alpholution Supreme model pictured here, there will also be a Hyperize and Zoom Sharkalaid in the pack. The Alpholution sports a patriotic white/navy/red color scheme, but a look at the tongue logo indicates that these kicks are actually repping for the evil Cobra forces. All three models are expected to hit stores as Quickstrikes this summer, so we’ll keep you posted on info and hit you with some images of the other two very soon. If you didn’t know about this pack, now you know, and remember that knowing is half the battle. Via Kenlu.

Air Jordan 1 Retro High   Hall of Fame Pack

There are many reasons Michael Jordan is headed for the Basketball Hall of Fame: his impact on the game, athletic shoes and fashion, his six NBA championships and five MVPs, Leroy Smith (?!).  These accolades aside, even the nerdiest double-dribbler could appreciate His Airness’ stats.  The Air Jordan 1 Retro High ‘Hall of Fame’ edition joins a pair of Air Jordan 2009s and Six (6) Rings in celebrating these numbers by applying them to the black upper in a font that resembles old digital scoreboards. Some of the easy to spot figures include MJ’s 32,292 career points, his record 30.1 ppg scoring average, the playoff record 63 points he dropped on Boston back in ’86.  The list goes on, so check the extra photos after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for updates.  via FlightClub
