David Cross cried when he saw these, then remembered his role in Scary Movie 3. The record label that released his raunchy comedy albums was also home to Nirvana and some say the grunge sound itself. Sub Pop made its living off of anti-corporate acts with major punk influences, so it’s certainly ironic to see the latest Nike SB Blazer Elite with their logo all over it. These are bright yellow and black, hard to miss and they’re available on eBay. Photos: RMK

You probably already saw the Beijing offering to the Air Max LeBron VII More Than A Game World Tour Artist Series on Monday, and now it’s time to take a look at the Shenyang edition that was presented to King James today. We showed you a sneak preview of the Chinese city artist creations last week, but now we get a detailed look at some of the finer points of the creation. The Shenyang version of the Air Max LeBron VII was designed by local artist, Ray Lei, who has not only incorporated some culturally influenced graphics and styles into the design, but there are also numerous touches that hold significance to LeBron’s life and basketball career. You can check out a bunch more detailed images of the Shenyang edition of the Artist Series after the jump, and read further about Ray Lei’s inspiration and motivation behind the design of the shoe.

Sporting some of the shaggiest horse hair we’ve seen, this pair of New Balance M575J looks pretty wild. Two colours is all you need when one of them is light brown fur. It’s about the same shade as gum rubber, which reminds us why it looks so great with white leather as a base. Add in the speckled rear midsole for just a little more depth and these are ready for your approval. Cop them today from Juebankongjian.

As we all know, Vans is always up for a good collaboration and this time they have teamed up with one of their most intriguing partners yet. Women’s fashion label, Hellz Bellz, will be joining forces with Vans to bring some daring new looks to their Spring 2010 collection. Two models have been created for this collabo, the Hadley Zipper Sneaker and the Sophie Strap Flats. The Hadley Zipper sneaker sports a rock n’ roll look thanks to a black leather upper equipped with zippers and metal lace loops. The Sophie Strap Flats offer a very different style, using shimmering metallic gold and silver materials on top of a black base with several decorative cut-out sections. Both pairs are expected to hit select shops in January as part of the women’s Spring 2010 line-up. Keep reading after the jump for a detailed look at both models. Via Nitro:licious.

The JORDAN MOMENTS COLLECTION brings together three legendary Jordan Brand sneakers to honor Michael Jordan’s ongoing contribution to the sport of basketball, pop culture and sneaker world.
Each shoe in the JORDAN MOMENTS COLLECTION represents a different stage of MJ’s legacy, beginning with the shoe that started it all, the AIR JORDAN 1. The JORDAN 6 RINGS highlights each of MJ’s six championships, and the AIR JORDAN 2009 honors the future of the brand.
The collection introduces the MOMENTS graphic, which was inspired by the collection of moments that defined MJ’s career. It features 23 of the most iconic numbers, or moments, including his average points per game (30.12), Rookie of the Year award (1985) and jersey numbers (23/45), to name a few.
Although the collection is slowing hitting retailers now, they will officially be available on Saturday, September 5, 2009.

Back in May, we showed you a sneak preview of an upcoming version of the Jordan Flight 45 that was inspired by the infamous Air Command Force. The classic b-ball model was also recently honored by the Billy Hoyle Hyperize from the White Men Can’t Jump pack and now it shows up again in a somewhat unlikely place. It’s not unheard of for a Nike shoe to take on attributes of a Jordan shoe (see Elephant print), but rarely has it ever been the other way around. In a very interesting move, the Jordan Flight 45 will take on some signature traits from the Air Command Force, using a White leather upper with Black and Blue accents and a healthy dose of Neon Yellow, including a speckled midsole which is perhaps the most recognizable element from the original Command Force design. It is still unclear when and in what quantities these will be released, but we’ll be sure to keep you in the loop once further details have been confirmed. You can check out more detailed images after the jump, as well as some comparison pics of the OG Air Command Force. Via FC.T

Keep reading after the jump for some nice recap pics from the Beijing event and a look at the More Than A Game World Tour t-shirt. Stay tuned for more on the tour tomorrow as LeBron makes a stop in Shenyang. Via LRJ23.

You probably couldn’t get a pair of A.R.C.’s 0.44 Sticky Gum Rubber Nike Dunk Highs, but the pair pictured above could serve a suitable substitute for the masses. The Nike Terminator High has that same white midsole atop gum, but these go for yellow and black in a simple colourblocking. The lining is an interesting waffle knit. It might enhance warmth, breathability, aesthetics or some combination, so we’ll keep an eye on that for future releases. Get this pair from iD4Shoes on eBay.

Last week, we gave you a look at the wild Paint-Blotting Pack of women’s Dunk Highs and now its time to look to at another bold pack for the ladies that’s right around the corner. The Dunk High Skinny is returning in some flashy new colorways, donning some shiny materials for the Metallic Pack. Three colorways of the Dunk High Skinny will be dipped in metallic leather with a sequin-like fabric covering the midpanels. The pack will consist of silver/white, gold/black and red/black versions of the shoe, all flaunting an attention-grabbing look. Be on the lookout for these to hit select retailers in the very near future and keep reading for a closer look at all three. Via Warped.

Here is yet another Nike Spring 2010 sample that will be released in the first quarter of 2010, this Nike Air Max 95 features the use of snakeskin embossed leather to give it an exotic look and feel to the shoe. The rather simple colorway of Black, Black, Dark Shadow, and Dark Grey are complimented nicely when pieced together on this Nike AM95. The Grey color being used on the snakeskin leather. This is one of the more interesting materials we’ve seen used on the Air Max 95. You can pick up this pair of size 9 samples via Cigar0330 on eBay.
