Our first look at the Jordan All Day back in July was three artist renderings that had a vague similarity to Carmelo Anthony’s latest signature sneakers. In these new photos, we can see that the spring 2010 releases have a style all their own. Previously depicted with the ultra-rare forefoot visible Air (with none in the back), the All Day has been revised with a section of translucent outsole revealing a ‘JORDAN’ script rising up to take its place.
The rest of the sole can be whatever colour, and each of these three pairs goes with an opaque contrasting shade. A stripe on the midsole allows for alot of detailing along the horizontal plane, while the tooling pushes your eye vertically. Black and white Bulls palettes, both will drop in February with textured underlays, and a black pair with Carolina blue accents hits retail shelves next March. via SC

We’ve seen plenty of photos of the five or so Air Jordan VI Retros slated for 2010 releases, but they’re not using up all the heat. Peep this Boys and Girls collection from Jordan Brand’s 2010 lineup, including this dinner-mint-delicious Air Jordan Spiz’ike just for girls. The little ladies also get a pink AJ6 Retro, along with two different pink-and-shrinked True Flights.
The boys’ side of things picks up with another True Flight, this time in white and black with red touches. It looks like the Flight 45 Highs we showed you last week will get a GS run, so stick with Sneaker News for updates if it happens to be excluded from a full size release. Jordan All Day and Classic 91s both debut with variations on the Bulls colours, while the Jordan 1 Fund and CP3.III are both blacked-out. This set wraps up with the March release of the Jordan Heat Check 2 sandal, and you can view photos of all of these Jordan Brand sneakers for kids after the jump. via SC

We’ve seen some catalog shots of the Alpha Air Jordan 1, but with the (main) shoe celebrating the brand’s 25th anniversary unveiled this week, it’s time to take a closer look at this reprisal of the shoe that started it all. You can see that the pair above slated for a January release stays true to the banned original, but adds modern touches like a full length Zoom Air bag, no-sew upper and an environmentally friendly mesh lining. Peep more shots of these and the three pairs scheduled for March drops after the jump. via SC

Good morning, Manny Pacquiao, and congratulations on winning the world title in an unprecedented seventh weight class! Ok, so chances are the Pac-Man is a little too busy today to check the streetwear blog circuit; he deserves to sleep in after that kind of effort (and what an impressive year!). Then again, Manny already has several variations on these, so it’s you who needs to be up and at-’em this morning if you want to get your hands on the Philippines colourway of the Nike Trainer 1. These are basically the same as the ‘Lights Out’ edition, but instead of black and neon green, you get Pacquiao’s national colours. They sold out fast at NikeStore but you might be able to find them at your local Nike Sportswear retailer. via FRESHNESS

Penny Hardaway won a gold medal at Atlanta’s 1996 Summer Olympic Games, but the Nike Foamposite One in Anfernee’s namesake copper is perhaps the all-time best. This shiny metallic edition of the Foamposite One has been seen a couple times on rapper Wale’s feet, and should be an immediate sell out, no matter how many end up hitting retailers. Here’s yet another case of ‘perfect’ feet getting all the luck: there’s a single pair available in US mens size 8.5 at Marquee Sole.

It’s been a slow (re-)start for the Nike Air Max ST. Originally unveiled as a US retro (it never went away in Europe) back with a fall release, there have been just a handful of colourways. This should open up a bit starting next spring, and the above pictured colourway is a good example of what to expect. The bright accent colours remind us of the golden era of Nike running, but the careful use of white, greys and black shows how well Nike has balanced their kicks of late. These might be a collaboration with Oqium, so stick with Sneaker News for updates. via HB

Need more proof that 2010 will be a huge year for Air Jordan VI (6) Retros? Here are two huge reasons why the streets are going to have a true vintage look next year (November 2010 marks the AJ6′s 20th anniversary). First off is the ‘bred’ pair that swapped the OG’s infrared for a darker varsity red shade. Those stay pretty close to the shoes MJ wore while winning his first NBA title, while the white and black speckled pair are sure to be a modern classic. It’s interesting how 20 years of Air Jordans later, the translucent outsole is still among the hottest features a shoe can have. Have a look at both takes on this iconic design after the jump, and be sure to check back with Sneaker News for Air Jordan VI Retro release dates. via FC.T//Nikemania

We’ve seen a trend lately with some designs featuring all metallic colorways. There are the metallic silver Nike 1/2 Cents and the Dirty Copper Foamposite One that has everyone in a frenzy. Here we give you a detailed look at the Jordan I Retro High in the Metallic Zinc colorway. These Retro I’s feature an all metallic zinc upper that sit on a white midsole, with accents of grey for the laces and outsole. The monotone upper give these Jordan Retro I’s an all over one piece look and are sure to break a few necks when worn out in the wild. If you would like to add these to your metallic collection or just wanna cop a pair they are available now through the RMK eBay Store.

We’ve seen how Vans loves to pay homage to artists who have paid their dues. Vans has already established a collection for comic book pioneer, R. Crumb, and now Vans adds another installment to the collection. This time designed around a Chukka, the crisp white upper (supposedly nubuck) is garnished with black stitching and stripe on the foxing. With graphics solely found on the back of the heel, the choice of illustration best depicts R. Crumb’s history of social satire and scrutiny of American life. Lavished with a cream-colored lining just waiting to be broken in, along with a choice of black or white laces. Definitely a clean design. via SoleRedemption.

Here is a pair of Unreleased Nike Blazer AC LE Lows. This specific colorway was never released and will be very hard to find. These Blazer AC’s feature a full suede upper with 3 velcro straps replacing the laces. The most exciting part of this shoe is the use of the legendary Tiffany green that graces the swoosh, liner and stitching on the heel tab. If you are interested in getting your hands on these size 9 samples, they are available now through verbdws on eBay.
