Giving a glimpse of what to expect in 2010, February will also show consistency from Jordan products. Though the unexpected release of the Motorsports Jordan 6 is the only retro, the other models bestow strong silhouettes and colorways. It’s safe to say there’s a little bit of something for everyone. New to general public is the Jordan All Day- featuring pretty simple yet impressive tooling and details. Wouldn’t be to surprised if that becomes a common shoe on street courts across the world. We expect that the classic colorways of those Jordan Classic ’91 will present itself as another lifestyle alternative sneaker, similar a couple of RT1′s being used to spiffy up a certain look. Nonetheless, Jordan Brand shows good effort to build confidence back into the naysayers. Stay tuned for further release dates.

Ken Griffey Jr.’s most famous Nike signature received a warm welcome when it retroed this year. The Nike Air Griffey Max 1 even made it to our Top 30 Sneakers of 2009 list, but the best might be yet to come. The Kid’s first kicks are back in an entirely new colourway that adds just a hint of bright blue to an otherwise cool grey design. Take a look at detailed images after the jump to get a sense for how soft the putty grey suede uppers really are, and if you need to get them early, Osneaker has a few pairs.

As all Nike running shoes do, a Women’s colourway of the upcoming Nike Lunarswift+ is also available. The Lunarswift, slated to take the place of the discontinued Nike Free Everyday, combines the lightweight and breathable upper with a Lunarlite midsole. The Nike Lunarswift+ also allows you to take advantage of all that Nike+ has to offer, like iPod integration and pedometer readings. A ton of colourways and a wide release make these readily available at Nike retailers nationwide, so keep your eyes peeled. via chajinyoung.

Have you joined the Supra Society yet? Terry Kennedy’s two-strapped superhigh signature is all set for new retail releaases this Spring. If it seems like you’ve seen these before, that’s because we’ve already previewed the metallic copper joints and the pair in neon blue/green, plus the black pair (which looks to be TUF) resembles a suede release from this holiday season. You can find detailed images of all three after the jump, and be sure to stick with Sneaker News for updates on all Supra TK Society release dates. via SF

With 2010 set to be a big year for Air Jordan VI (6) retros, here’s a closer look at one we expect to drop a little later this year. It’s a colourway that clearly evokes the Detroit Pistons’ uniform colours, but these could have just as easily been suitable for Prom, with the black suede-on-patent uppers. Enjoy some closeups after the jump and if you need these early, you can get a limited size run from Marquee Sole.

To some degree, the Nike Hyperdunk was regarded as the next-of-kin to the Nike Huarache basketball line. Despite not having any characteristics that would categorize it as a Huarache, the Nike Hyperdunk was still a widely popular basketball performance shoe just like the Nike Huarache 2k4 and 2k5 was. But, the family ties stop there; neither the Huarache 2k4 nor the 2k5 have spawned a low-top version of the shoe (and no, the Nike Total Package Low does not count). Here are pictures of the Nike Hyperdunk Low in a Dark Grey/White colourway, set to drop in 2010. Based on the pictures, you could call it a relative of the Nike Zoom Kobe IV or V, a distant cousin if you will. A nubuck upper, flywire integration, and low-cut design will make these a popular choice for the ballers who prefer the lower cut kicks. via tistory.

Perhaps the most novelty and cosmetic of sneaker technology is the Reebok Pump. No matter how many times I squeezed the little half-basketball on the tongue, I never improved my 7″ vertical. Nonetheless, the Reebok Twilight Zone stands as one of the best selling and most popular basketball kicks of the early 90′s. On top of the two OG Reebok Pump Twilight Zone colourways that dropped just a few days ago, here are two more choices for you to mull over; white/red and grey/blue. Who knows, maybe if you pump them enough, you’ll be able to jump higher than ever before. Probably not though. Available via overseas purchase at atmos.

Air Yeezy comparisons aside, the Flight 45 High is a solid new offering thanks to the blending of some classic Jordan elements with a contemporary high cut look. We’ve already seen a good amount of colorways of the high model, but these might just be the most eye-catching. With the bold Varsity Red suede upper and Black and White accents to give the shoe an undeniable Chicago Bulls feel, this Flight 45 High colorway is sure to please more than a few MJ fans out there. If your mind is open to some of the new Jordan styles, these might be worth some consideration when they hit retailers in February. Via FootLockerUnlocked.

These may seem familiar as we gave a sneak peak of an upcoming Dunk Hi SB. Seems they’re definitely going through with it, as this Dunk will be set as a Quickstrike release early 2010. Looking like Crash would have gotten his hands on these, the sneaker features primary colors and a hyperbole burst, matching a generic comic feel. No word on an approximate date, but stay tuned for further info. via HS

Despite some opposition claiming of its failure like a bunch of other hybrids, JB seems to think otherwise about the Spiz’ike because more and more keep popping up. CW’s that have already released have spanned across a variety of popular color combos, so it’s hard to avoid overlapping looks. But this pair actually creates its own look with new layout of hues, but more importantly, the use of perforation for the entire overlay. Release date is tentative, so keep up with us for any further updates. via FC.T
