Add Circa’s ‘Culture Squad’ amongst the ever-growing list of collaborative streetwear and sneaker sub-labels. They’re bringing in four artists to customize footwear releases for the Spring 2010 season. Some of these relationships have been shared for a decade, others are just starting. It’s nice enough to have artists like Christopher Bettig and Ruben Sanchez, but this pack also includes Toronto-based skater Rob Dyer’s effort for Skate4Cancer. Take a look at the entire spread after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for updates.

Lemar and Dauley’s double shot of DC Shoes Xanders earlier this year relied on a tennis theme, but this latest pair really looks the part. Sure, the earlier edition featured clean suede and racquet-like netting, but this in-house effort from DC instantly evokes tennis with its neon yellow/green woven nylon upper. The netting is still on this pair too, doubling the on-court vibe. Silver touches and just a tiny taste of orange finish these out quite nicely.

Nike Sportswear has collaborated with Cassette Playa out of the UK once again on this Dunk High Premium that is a part of the Rivals Pack from Nike Sportswear’s Holiday 2009 Collection. The original version of this shoe that we showed you had Cassette Playa graphics on the side panels of the upper and a Black midsole but now it looks like the graphics have been moved to the toebox of the shoes and tongue label with the midsole being colored in an Orange color. You can pick these up now at select Nike Sportswear retailers now. via Dunk.com.cn

Here is a look at an upcoming Spring 2010 Nike Blazer Mid ND that is a part of what is being called the 3GX Series, which looks to use various premium leathers and materials while keeping the colors subtle and basic. This Blazer uses an all Black upper with a White midsole and outsole. On the shoe’s tongue, there is a “3GX” label. These won’t be dropping until the first quarter of 2010 but you can pick up a pair now at Osneaker.

Converse isn’t necessarily known for having packs or a series of specific designed shoes, unless, that is, it’s initiated by a certain collaboration or cause. These kicks, however, are one of those exceptions. Although variant in graphics/patterns and colorways, what ties all these together is the use of jersey material for the uppers. Hence the “Sweat.” None of them scream for attention, but there’s something tasty about the subtly with the smart use of color accenting certain parts of the shoe. Consider these a nice little alternative to your typical homogenous collection of everyday rockers. via JD Sports.

Some of you guys got lucky last week and were able to get your hands on a pair of the Lights Out Manny Pacquiao x Nike Trainer 1, but the matching t-shirt were no where to be found. Good news, the Manny Pacquiao x Nike Pacman Knows – Lights Out T-Shirt is now available on nikestore.com. Just like the Trainer 1, these will disappear just as quick so don’t sleep.

This Nike Air Royal Mid Quickstrike was originally previewed at a Nike party in Las Vegas a few weeks ago but now new detailed images have surfaced around this interesting Quickstrike pack from Nike Sportswear. Two Nike Air Royal Mid’s make up this Quickstrike release with both colorways featuring similar details such as the Deep Burgundy accent color and an additional cloth shoe bag that comes with each pair of Royal Mid’s. One pair comes in Wine and Deep Burgundy while the other comes in Black and Deep Burgandy. The inspiration for the pack looks to have come from premium work boots. Available now at select Nike Sportswear retailers. via Dunk.com.cn

We’re clearly familiar with Nike’s concept of creating a series of sneakers that reflect parts of the US, all of which have been dope enough to evoke regional pride- or even jealousy that you’re not from a territory’s shoe you like better. UNDFTD’s Eddie Cruz has been the creative force behind the West series, with this Air Force 1 Supreme being one of the first to be revealed. Now you can grab the sample of this faux-croc banger. Not many images to go off of, but it seems like there isn’t much variation from the sample to the final retail version. Even so, there’s always something special about having something that’s closer to a visionary’s original concept. Scoop these up on eBay.

Recently my managing editor and I reminisced and thought how funny it is that when younger, we’d always prefer a white colorway over a black, and yet as grown adult sneakerheads we almost undoubtedly go for the latter of the two. That said, my younger self would probably skip right past this pair. But as time changes tastes, how can I resist an Air Max 90 with all black pebbled leather, buttery nubuck and mesh? Especially with a carbon fiber type midsole!? Crispy. An answer to some of the “North” joints we’ve been seeing. Looks like another regional feud is about to ignite. via JD Sports.
