New rule: all new Nike Air Structure Triax 91 retros must remind you of drinking Sprite. Ok, that’s a gross oversimplification of what we have in store for 2010, but this new pair certainly reminds us of another that should drop around the same time. We get a white base of various fabrics along with blue, green and black accent hits. Check out more photos after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for the latest on Nike’s plans for 2010. via GLLTN

Last week, we gave you a preview of an interesting new addition to the Jordan Brand apparel arsenal. As part of the Air Jordan Retro Collection, JB will be releasing a set of Noctilucence (glow in the dark) Socks that feature elements from some classics in the legendary Air Jordan catalog. You may have already seen some of the different versions in our preview last week, but now we get a look at some more that are lined up such as some less talked about Jordans like the XVII, XVIII and XXI. It also appears that there will be another variation of the socks that has been created based on the Air Jordan V featuring the “shark tooth” design on the toe and a different collector’s box. Keep reading after the jump to check out a detailed look at the upcoming collection. Via FC.T.

Back in July, we gave you a look at an intriguing new collaboration between Nike and Amsterdam sneaker heavyweights, Patta, with the Air Max 1 as the weapon of choice. Now, we get a sneak peek at another Air Max 1 colorway whipped up by the Patta/Nike team. This version sticks close to the OG Air Max 1 color blocking, but throws in some Lime Green as the main accent color. The rest of the shoe sports sections of Grey suede and White mesh, giving it a nice classic look with a new twist. Aside from just the color scheme, Patta has put their signature on these by way of a special block-lettered tongue label. Keep reading to get a closer look at these and to compare them with the other upcoming Patta Air Max 1. Both are expected to drop some time this Holiday season, so be sure to stay tuned for more pics and info on the collaboration.

Earlier this month, we gave you a look at the newly redesigned Retro card that will accompany the controversial Air Jordan XII Rising Sun. Now, we bring you a sneak peek at the Retro card that will be packaged with the upcoming Flu Game edition of the Air Jordan XII. As you can see, the front of the card features the Flu Game graphics that appear on this Retro version’s tongue and heel. The card’s back sports the new Air Jordan breakdown that displays all Air Jordan models right up to the Air Jordan 2009. The Flu Games are set to release next month, so be prepared to grab yours unless you’ve been swayed by the new suede upper. Via RMKstore.

When Jay-Z’s The Blueprint 3 Tour hit Cleveland, Ohio, some of Cleveland’s most notable residents showed up to the concert including the Cavaliers biggest offseason acquisition, both literally and figuretively, Shaquille O’Neal, as well as the King, Lebron James. N.E.R.D.’s Pharrell brought Lebron on stage during their set and while Pharrell might have ditched his Nike’s for some New Balance shoes, Lebron was spotted in a pair of the recently launched Nike x NITRO MICROPHONE UNDERGROUND Air Force 1 High Premium’s. via BBC/Ice Cream Blog

Nike SB has released a few pairs of Dunks that contain hemp material, almost all of which have had a strong following and are still sought-after. Now there will be another addition to the Hemp Dunk roster in the SB series. While most of the upper sporting a earthly orange color, the toebox, mid panel and heel tab features a natural hemp. The combination of material layout, along with the accented colors, may remind you of the Forbes Hunter Dunk Lows. Nonetheless, a clean design that’s a must-have for most of you SB-heads. Expect these to start popping up at SB retailers very soon. via Choko.

Back in August, we gave you a little sneak peek at a special edition of the Big Nike High inspired by the Nike MVPuppets ad campaign. In addition to the obvious star power of the LeBron and Kobe puppets, Lil’ Dez also put in a strong performance in a supporting role. Although the commercials are over for now, Nike is doing their part to make sure that Dez doesn’t get forgotten, so they have whipped up this new version of the Big Nike High. The shoe sports a solid Sport Red leather upper with a White midsole and Varsity Purple lining. Several personal nods to Lil’ Dez are included, most notably, the tongue label and the Lil’ Dez block letters that replace the standard Nike logo. If you’re feeling these attention-grabbers, they will be hitting House of Hoops locations tomorrow, October 27th. Via FootLockerUnlocked.

We’ve been following these crazy Godzilla Blazer Mid Premiums for a while, hoping all along that they would hit stores in time for Halloween monster madness. The wild green scale graphics on the upper are balanced out by solid sections of Green and Black leather, capped off by a gum midsole. The tongue features a small Nike logo stitched in red with a Gold patent heel tab with Red Nike branding finishing off the design. If you’ve been waiting a while for these, you can be stomping buildings in them in no time once you get yourself a pair from 95soleman on eBay.

How many more Nike Zoom Kobe IVs can there be? Our best guess is that Nike wants to remind you with one colourway for each game how impressive it was for the Black Mamba to remain at the peak of his power and relatively injury free through two NBA seasons and an Olympic Gold Medal run without a break. We’re talking well over 250 games, not to mention the pratices, time in the weight room and hours spent breaking down film that it takes to be that good.
This edition of the ZK4 further emphasizes the high points of this amazing two year run, bookending the 2008-09 NBA season with the Gold Medal and Kobe’s first NBA title sans Shaq. Dubbed ‘Beijing to the Finals’ or BJ2F for short, these look wonderful in white with gold and purple accents, plus splashes of red on the insides including a snake lying coiled beneath some Chinese symbols. This impressive pair is set to drop on December 12th, which has us expecting the sequel around New Year’s. Stick with Sneaker News for updates on all Kobe Bryant sneakers. via HK Kicks
