When it comes to winter, we hate to ruin our favorite pairs in slushy snow.  Not to mention some of those kicks with canvas or mesh just ain’t cutting it against frosty temperatures.  Nike’s been pushing out rugged solutions for all climates, but some may not fancy it for it’s cumbersome looks.  Alas, JB took one of its better hybrids, roided all up, and you have the Air Jordan Spiz’ike Winterized Boot.  Not only is it brawny for beating around, but also comes with a insulated lining and water-resistent upper for extra protection against the elements.  Some of you already know this, already rocking the black or brown pairs.  But if you missed out or wanted something with a little more flare, this Flint Grey pairs comes with some hits of Cherrywood and Nightshade.  Not super flashy, but at least its not monochrome.  Pick up a pair now at WishATL

Air Jordan VIII (8) Low   Jared Jeffries Home PE

While Jared Jeffries and the New York Knicks may be off to another lackluster start this season, Jared’s Air Jordan PE game is officially in overdrive.  We’ve recently shown you some of Jared Jeffries’ fresh personalized Jordan kicks like the XX3 Low, as well as home and away colorways of the Air Jordan V.  Now, we bring you a look at another perk of his Air Jordan affiliation, the Air Jordan VIII Low in a home Knicks color scheme. The shoe sports a White leather upper with a section of Grey on the heel and splashes of Royal and Orange on the midsole and outsole. As with many of his other PE’s Jeffries’ number 20 is stitched into the heel. If you’re a Knicks fan struggling to get through another rough season, maybe these kicks can brighten your day a little. You can cop this pair of size 17′s now from sole_supreme on eBay.

Puma R698 Alpine   Blue   Green   Grey   Black

While it’s not widely accepted that Nike borrowed the ‘Triax’-style Air window from the Puma R698, they certainly look alike.  Similarly, Puma probably didn’t set out to copy the Swoosh with its colour choices for this latest R698 release, but both companies are on the pulse of which hues will be hot come springtime.

Looks like we can expect alot of electric neon shades; they’re covering this pair.  They’re unique from most of the 698s we’ve seen because the stabilizing wing that partially covers Puma’s signature stripe is ‘extended’ toward the heel with a printed streak.  It’s a visual that screams ‘SPEED!’ and you can be a couple months ahead of the curve by copping these from your local Puma retailer.  via Kenlu

Nike Blue Chip II   Jermaine ONeal PE @ HOH

After some dominant years in Indiana, Jermaine O’Neal has recently bounced around the league a little from a brief stint in Toronto to his current home in Miami. Now that he’s getting comfortable in his new digs, Jermaine has a nice new PE to help show off his hometown colors. This Blue Chip II sports a a dark look perfect for Miami Heat away games. The kicks sport a combination of smooth Black leather and Red patent on the upper with some additional White accents on the Swoosh, midsole and contrast stitching. As a personal nod, O’Neal’s initials and number 7 are represented with an embroidered heel logo. If you are a Jermaine O’Neal fan or just find yourself digging the color scheme, these will be hitting House of Hoops locations in the very near future. Via FootLockerUnlocked.

Celebrity Feet: 50 Cent   Nike Air Goadome Boot   Black

50 Cent’s deal with Reebok may have finally come to an end as the rapper seems to have worn a pair of all Black Nike Goadome Boots when he visited BET’s 106 & Park last week to promote his new album, Before I Self Destruct. 50 also happened to be wearing a Crooks & Castles sweatshirt and matching New York Yankees fitted cap. Judge for yourself and let us know what you think after the jump…

Vans Switchback   Black + Grey

Vans has dropped a series of high quality vulcanized rubber-soled boots this season.  Taka Hayashi’s bold No Quarter may have been too much for some to handle, so that’s where the Buffalo Boot and this latest drop came in.  Pictured above is the Switchback boot from the new Vans California collection.  Both are pretty basic, providing a solid and fashionable base from which the rest of your attire can take flight.  Brownish-grey joints with a black sole and another pair in black with brown sole and red laces are both available at higher quality Vans retailers like DQM.

Air Jordan Flight 45   Air Command Force Inspired   Available

Sneakerheads seem to be nuts about the Air Jordan Flight 45 High, whereas the original midtop colourways were frequently overlooked.  Maybe if they had started with this Air Command Force-inspired colourway, things would have been different.  Who cares about the past, though, when you have a chance to get another dope reminder of Woody Harrelson’s turn as Billy Hoyle in White Men Can’t Jump.  These use the same yellow and blue accents as Hoyle’s Command Forces to liven up an otherwise tame palette.  Enjoy onlookers’ “Oh that’s the move!” face when they see you copped these from Size?

Patta x Nike Air Max 1   5th Anniversary Release Info + Detailed Photos

We hoped that our last post about the Patta joints helped clarify all these products about Parra and Patta.  We’ve seen a green and purple pair of Patta 1′s dropping, along with these, to commemorate the store’s 5 years in business.  Quite a mixture, the color choices compete with just as many material applications- sporting denim, corduroy and perf nubuck.  As we said last time, we weren’t sure on release info, but we’re glad to let you know these quickstrikes will drop at Patta this Saturday, the 28th.  Good luck to those on the hunt.
