The Air Jordan Spiz’ike has some dope colourways on deck for 2010. If you can’t fit/won’t rock a pair of the awesome after dinner minty GS Spiz’ike, these are a perfect option. It’s a colourway so hot that some believed only DJ Clark Kent could cook it up, although the rumors proved to be false. Turns out, this is an in-house Jordan Brand palette, and looks slick with its stacking of black, white and red sections. Keep reading after the jump to take a closer look at some more details, like the tonal white elephant print. via Colmilludo

Jay Chou tickled the ivory again this year, with a ‘Grand Piano’ Nike Air Max 1 dropping in super limited quantities on 12/12 (unlike last year’s version which was only for promo purposes). If you’re into the two-toned patent plus pink motif, here’s another reason to be cheerful this holiday season: they just popped up from a trusted reseller. This pair of Grand Piano Air Max 1′s comes in two separate packaging versions. If you’ve been drooling over pictures of these, you’ll be happy to know that the deluxe Hyperstrike box edition with matching leather bracelet and the regular NSW box version are both available now from abckicks on eBay.

We’ve covered the Nike Zoom Kobe V to tedium, but we’ll never get tired of new colourways. Here’s a look at an upcoming ZKV in a quintessential Lakers color combination, set to drop on the 16th of January at FootLocker. Nicknamed the “Carpe Diem” these ZKVs act as an alternate to the other “Away” Zoom Kobe V that we covered over a month ago, and doing a side-by-side comparison will reveal some obvious differences despite both carrying the same motif. Most notable is the “ice” sole, one that we all love, and what appears to be a snake-skin “netting” lying over the toebox and along the lace-line. Behind the tongue is an interesting logo, two trifectas of pyramidal prisms side-by-side. via FootLockerUnlocked.

Here’s a look at the frontlining Nike SB footwear and apparel releases of 2010. Set to drop in January, Nike SB is looking to start the year off right with a plethora of new colourways for their SB line mainstays and newcomers, like the Bruin, Zoom Classic High, Blazer, P-Rod 3, and Stefan Janoski. Along with the kicks is a collection of Nike SB gear in new colourways, fit for the cold weather season. Hoodies, flannels, hats, and wallets are just some of the items you can grab next month so hopefully you’ll have some of your Christmas budget left over. via NikeSB.

The Air Jordan 25th Anniversary is bringing back a premium feature we haven’t seen in about a third as many years. Last seen on the AJXVII, you can’t help but notice how dope an aluminum Jordan-Branded case is, especially when the contents are a Silver Anniversary AJ1. Both kicks and case feature the interlocked ’23/25′ insiginia that’s going to be everywhere in 2010. JB made sure of that by dropping these on December 26th, but you can grab a pair today from 4kickzweb on eBay.

I know what you’re thinking: “There are sneakers in this picture?”. Try to peel your eyes away from the beautiful lady and check out the new colourway of the Supra Skytop II on her feet, set to drop in the upcoming weeks. Two new colourways of Chad Muska’s signature shoe will be available on January 15th in a regal navy/gold colourway and an unmistakable black suede rendition. These Supra Skytop IIs seem to reach higher than its predecessor, but it also has a slimmer and more form-fitting structure. The “windows” on the tongue are another interesting design detail, which should quickly remind you of the Air Jordan VI. The Supra Skytop has taken the urban fashion scene by storm and with these slick new colors, the sophomore effort of the Supra Skytop looks poised to further blaze the trail. via HighSnobiety.

Chris Brown recently visited BET’s 106 & Park to promote his new album, Graffiti, and while the R&B singer didn’t have on any shoes that would turn our heads, Terrance J. did have on a pair of the Air Jordan VI “Carmine’s” from last year’s Air Jordan Countdown Pack. Additionally DJ All Pro who was also on the set was seen in a pair of the Nike Air Max 1′s in White and Purple from this year’s Air Max 1 “Safari” Pack. Check out more images from Chris Brown’s visit to 106 & Park after the jump…

The legendary Nike Blazer has a number of variations, which isn’t surprising considering its unerring longevity in sneaker culture. Among the numerous renditions is the Nike Blazer Mid ND, with the marquee characteristic being the stitching that circumvents the shoe just above the vulcanized midsole. The Black-on-black paired with the pure white midsole is a colourway that can do no wrong, and has remained perfect throughout the decades. In case you were wondering what 3GX stands for, its the color code for the pop color used in this pack. Available at Nike Sportswear retailers such as Proper and BowsandArrows.
