The adidas Superstar has been around for a long time and has seen its fair share of materials and colorways over the years, but now the classic shoe receives one of its boldest color schemes yet as part of the adidas Originals collection. With the NBA season ready to tip off, adidas will introduce this flashy Los Angeles Lakers-inspired version of the legendary shoe, a tribute to last season’s NBA Championship. Rather than going with the predictable purple/yellow palette, the Lakers Superstar swaps out the yellow for some shiny metallic gold leather. Sections of purple and yellow suede provide the accents with a white toe cap, midsole and lining giving the shoe a touch of the traditional Superstar flavor. As a cherry on top, the insoles feature the Lakers’ logo and the number 15, a nod to their impressive 15th NBA title. If you’re a Lakers diehard or just like these kicks, you will find them at select adidas retailers beginning November 1st. Keep reading for more pics and a list of the spots where you can get yourself a pair.

The Nike Air Flytop is yet another new retro, bringing flavor from the past and presenting it with a new kick (couldn’t help the pun). Anything with velcro straps used to be synonymous with strictly athletic grit, and yet we’ve seen so many featured on high-end lifestyle sneakers. The key? The design of the overall look. Take these for example. Both very clean simple colorways, applied with premium leather uppers. The use of leather for the inside lining adds to that lux look and feel. Many may associate first-class with expendability, and carelessness for waste. But contrary to how these designs convey superiority, Nike is able to create these as a Considered design, making them quite eco-friendly. Then again, going green is more of a concern lately for the yuppies as well. Cop both the white and black pair at Caliroots.

If the colourway for this latest Nike Blazer Mid seems familiar, you might have last year’s Urban Night Pack in mind. Those three sneakers were all from Nike ACG and laid neon accents atop black bases to great effect. This ND release (notice the slimmed down sole and fabric ‘foxing’ strip) is done in a rough suede with bright pink and blue hits dropping in on the UV party. Cop yours today from 95Soleman on eBay.

Mike Shinoda and DC Shoes have had a productive ongoing collaboration for a couple of years now. From kicks that benefitted his alma mater to all the other Shinoda Remix joints, we’ve gotten to see what the musician has to offer in terms of sneaker design. With this DC Xander, the Linkin Park co-frontman chose a mix of leathers and nylon, all in black, to serve as the base for some white and blue contrast hits. You can find MS and SURU detailing all over the shoe and its 500 pairs will release exclusively at the LA-based retailer between November 20th and December 20th of this year. SURU is doing a pre-sale for online orders only, right now. Stick with Sneaker News for updates.

Here is another look at a Nike SB Dunk Mid Premium we showed you back in May, in a dark chocolate colorway. This Nike Dunk Mid features a chocolate brown suede upper with brown nubuck panels and a black midsole. The most unique features about these Dunk mids are the laces that resemble those on a pair of Timberlands and the speckled outsole. These Nike SB Dunk Mid Premiums are available now through Caliroots

Although there may still be some Zoom Kobe IV colorways popping up, very soon all eyes will be on the fifth installment of Kobe Bryant’s signature Nike line. We have already shown you a few sneak peeks at the Zoom Kobe V, including one preview that displayed numerous upcoming colorways. Aside from the expected Lakers-inspired colorways and some simple team looks, there was one particular version that stuck out above the rest. With all of the Zoom Kobe IV colorways that dropped, one of the most memorable was definitely the Chaos edition. Now, it looks like the concept is back, this time opting for an even bolder color combination. In addition to some White synthetic snakeskin, the upper also sports some sections of iridescent Purple reptile scales with some Neon Green accents on the Swoosh, outsole and tongue logo. There is no word yet on a release for these, but keep reading to check out a bunch more pics in the meantime. Via fatboykicks.

Ever go on Nike ID and try to emulate one of your favorite pairs? Nike drops these Classic BW’s that pretty much looks like a remix of an existing White/Persian Violet BW’s, or maybe even an “Un” version of the Black/Persian Violets. It makes sense, being that all three pairs have the same colors, just in different layouts. This particular pairs look almost exactly like the White/Persian Violets that dropped in August, expect that the black on the mudguard now takes place on the underlay. Other than that, the purple is found on the same parts- the tongue, the upper heel tab and the foxing around the air bubble. Not to mention that the other difference is that the other ones only came in women’s sizes. If you saw the other ones drop and wished they came in your size, now’s your chance. Available now at Caliroots.
Style Code: 358797 151
Colorway: White/Persian Violet/Black

It seems like so far, there have been more Quickstrike releases of the Nike Air Zoom Toki lifestyle sneaker than those made available to the general public. This new pair has the look of quality that could withstand a large crowd but will make its smooth lightly oiled caramel brown suede design only available to the quick and the hungry. These add white and brown piping to the design for an interesting exercise in colour depth and contrast. Stick with Sneaker News and we’ll be sure to update you as the release approaches. via Dunk.com.cn
