Nike Air Hoop Structure Flywire   Black   Available on eBay

Talk about flying under the radar. Here’s a look at the Nike Air Hoop Structure Flywire that hasn’t seen much attention from anybody (if any at all). Sneaker News dropped info about  pair of Hoop Structures in a similar colourway but these are entirely black and come equipped with Flywire, a definite first for the Nike Air Hoop Structure. It has an uncanny resemblance to a Stealth Bomber, so it’s no wonder that these managed to slip by unnoticed. There was, however, a sample of the Nike Air Hoop Structure in this exact colourway, but without the Flywire. Grab these enigmas now from JBseller on eBay.

Nike MVPuppets   New T Shirts + Foam Fingers

The popularity of the Nike MVPuppets has spread like wildfire! We’ve laughed with and at them while they solved mysteries and dunked on reindeers; now the MVPuppets shirts have become the must-have item for this holiday season. These shirts get a lot of Cali love; Los Angeles-based Undefeated designed two of these t-shirts that will be available in various colors, and another tee has puppet Kobe’s hands putting up the famous LA sign. Adding to the already impressive line of MVPuppet work are foam fingers, MVPuppet style. Lucky Laker fans attending the Cavs game on Christmas day will receive these MVPuppet foam fingers to wave at LeBron, and perhaps the result of the game will help decide whether the lion or the black mamba is the superior animal. Don’t be surprised if these foam fingers end up as the subjects of bidding wars on eBay. via Dime.

Nike SB Blazer High   Spring 2010 Preview

Deck the halls with these newly introduced Nike Blazer SB, and you’ll definitely feel the holiday spirit. These colourways won’t be dropping down the chimney in time for the holidays, but the the Christmas-looking color schemes will be on the way early in 2010.  The black/red colourway would match well with Santa’s outfit (if he was a shoehead), and the green/white/red pair would be heat on the feet of an elf. Can you say, Nike Blazer SB Heineken part Two? The primary differences between these and the first Heineken-inspired Blazer colourway is the perforated swoosh and lack of a gum toe-guard. We’ll keep you in the loop regarding a stateside release, but you can get your festive Blazers early over at Breaker.

Nike WMNS Terminator High   Black   Metallic Silver   Pink

Nike’s been dishing out some pretty sweet colourways of the Nike Terminator, and here’s another one that’ll rock the socks off the ladies. The black upper and silver accents are set off by a hot pink midsole, and the hot pink stitching on the swoosh are a nice touch. As hot pink customarily does, the colour combo definitely grabs your attention at first, but take a quick look at the upper achilles; a dotted-line stitched ankle neck gives these Womens Nike Terminators a real metallic, sturdy-as-steel look. It’s a real treat for those who appreciate fine patterns and details. Ladies, these are available for you overseas at Dunk.

Celebrity Feet: Spike Lee & Anthony Anderson   New York Knicks Home Game

Various celebrities including Q-Tip, Tracy Morgan, Jay-Z, and more  have been spotted wearing “heat” at New York Knicks’ home games this 2009-10 NBA season. It was no different when the Los Angeles Clippers visited Madison Square Garden last Friday night, where Spike Lee and actor Anthony Anderson were spotted courtside along with Howard Stern and Adrienne Bailon. Spike Lee was seen wearing a pair of Air Jordan Spi’zike Winterized Boots, but Spike’s pair looks to be a bit different than the all Black pair that was released a couple months ago, it seems Spike has a pair that were customized for him to include a hit of Blue, either that or the lighting of the camera caused the toe tip of his Spi’zike Boots to look Blue. Anthony Anderson was seen rocking a pair of Nike Cortez’s in Black and White nylon.

Vans Switchback   Distressed + Orange   Maroon

The Vans Switchback boot debuted last month as the anchor for Off the Wall’s California collection.  Those first two pairs kept things simple, looking like two of the finest peacoat-companions a sneakerhead’s ever seen.  With these new pairs, we’re starting to see a fork in the family tree. One uses a distressed oiled leather for a rugged look that screams ‘beloved boot’, while another pair would be perfect for the Chick-fil-a Bowl, with its orange and maroon tumbled leathers (go Hokies!).  Whether you’re a Virginia Tech fan or just a dude who wants some dope boots, they’re available from Contemporary Standard.

Solebox x Saucony   Old Skool vs. New Skool Pack

German retailer Solebox recently hooked up with Saucony for an interesting new pack that brings us some fresh takes on something new and something old. For the ‘Old Skool vs. New Skool’ pack, Solebox chose to take the classic Shadow 6000 and the more recent A3 model and give them both the same color scheme, creating some unity between a few generations of Saucony designs. Both models feature black uppers with salmon-colored accents and white midsoles. There’s no word yet on exactly when these will be released, but we’ll be sure to keep you posted. For now, you can check out more pics of both shoes after the jump. Via SnkrFrkr.

Nike Prestige High   Black   White   Hot Red   Summer 2010

It seems that the seldom-seen Nike Prestige High will be making a comeback during the Summer 2010 season. This latest version gives the classic-looking style perhaps its most contemporary look yet. The shoe sports a combination of Black and White leather on the upper with the accents provided by bright splashes of Hot Red that appear on the outsole and lace locks, as well as the contrast stitching and Nike branding. It remains to be seen if some more interesting colorways are in store for the Prestige High, but for now, we know that these will be hitting retail in a few months. Via FootLockerUnlocked.

Nike Zoom Kobe V   Dark Knight Edition

One of the coolest colourways of both the fourth and fifth Kobe Bryant signature sneakers from Nike has been the Chaos edition.  This theme is expanded with the Nike Zoom Kobe V (5), and here’s our first look at the ‘Dark Knight’ colourway.  The palette is very Duke-like, both in colour, and its straight-to-business look, sans the snakeskin print found on many ZK5s.  Take a look at some super detailed photos after the jump.  via US10

Celebrity Feet: Swizz Beatz   Nike Air Force 1   Black Friday

Swizz Beatz and his girlfriend, Alicia Keys, were spotted shopping together along with Alicia’s bodyguard in New York City last week. Swizz might’ve been able to keep a low profile because of his hat but his kicks were easily spotted as he was seen wearing the Nike Air Force 1 Low Supreme’s otherwise known to most of us as the “Black Friday” Air Force 1′s that DJ Clark Kent designed last year. The Black pony hair Air Force 1′s with a hint of Metallic Silver aren’t hard to spot for most Air Force 1 heads. Images via GOSSIPONTHIS
