If you were angry enough to carry around a list of the 5 people you want to kill, the insoles of your shoes is as good a place to hide it as any. Nike snuck the Kill Bill-inspired Auto Flight and Big Nike hightops into stores, but here’s a nice old fashioned preview of the Kill Bill Auto Force 180. They’ve got the same intense black/yellow/red colourway that defined the Kill Bill motif just like the other pairs from this pack, but these haven’t hit retail in the states yet. Stick with Sneaker News for updates, though, cos they just arrived at Dunk.com.cn

The latest viral video from Jordan Brand is kinda like a puzzle with the ‘Nightmares Never Sleep’ commercial as your box. Watch as NY-based artist WK Interact uses simple black paint to piece together the haunting imagery from that dope Air Jordan 2010 commercial. With the help of CGI and superb editing, it only takes about a minute and a half, but the Manhattan residents who look up at this massive new Dwyane Wade mural on the corner of Ludlow and Stanton Streets will get to appreciate it daily.

There are alot of red/white/yellow Nike Air Max LeBron VII colourways. These aren’t for King James’ Cavs jerseys or Christ the King High School. Nope, this latest AML7 PE is for LA’s Fairfax High School, clearly, for their home games. The Fairfax HS PE goes with alternate Flywire colouring for that pinstriped look, giving these a smooth, professional appeal. Stick with Sneaker News, we’ll let you know if these will ever reach retail. via NLB.net

Known for embracing chaos in a more-than-occasionally stuffy industry, the late Alexander McQueen had been collaborating with Puma for a couple of years now. With these Puma Tech Ko hightops, McQueen employed a supremely sleek black upper made of nylon and leather. It has huge ankle cutouts for an exaggerated Huarache/Air Jordan VII look, but the aforementioned sleekness means these have obviously come from a progressive design approach thanks to Alexander McQueen. If you’ve got an extra $328 USD, they just dropped at Oak.

Pretty much everybody who wasn’t Dwyane Wade, was overshadowed by the 2010 All Star MVP’s kicks. Sure, there were a ton of guys who had dope Jordan Brand PEs, but D-Wade’s metallic silver Air Jordan 2010s stole the show. In any case, we’d be remiss if these ‘others’ didn’t get some time to shine.
Carmelo Anthony’s Air Jordan Melo M6 and Chris Paul’s CP3.III are both given the ASG treatment here in these new House of Hoops exclusives. Both are mostly red with gold and white accents, and lots of star detailing. Check out photos of both after the jump and then hit up the Foot Locker HoH nearest you.

White Mountaineering is a stylish Japanese outdoor gear company who get featured far more frequently at our streetwear colleagues FRESHNESS than here at Sneaker News. That changes today, thanks to the unveiling of the new White Mountaineering x Vans Mountain Edition pack. Both pairs only feature three main colours, but the blocking pattern leaves alot for the eye to inspect. You’ve got a checked underlay, ‘triple’ foxing bands, and of course, the White Mountaineering logo on the tongue tag. These are probably a Japanese exclusive, but we’ll keep you posted on a possible stateside release. via Cluster

We might be exhausted at the number of Air Jordan XII PE seen on Jordan Branders like Rip Hamilton, Gerald Wallace, and Ray Allen, but this new PE worn by Joe Johnson during last night’s game against the Utah Jazz is worth a look. Why? Because this colourway could very well have been an original colourway from ’96-’97. This latest Air Jordan XII PE isn’t made “unpure” by oranges or greens or blues; the uppers are entirely black with red adorning just the Jordan label on the side, the traction on the bottom sole, the inner lining, and the lettering on the tongue. This PE is definitely a treat for those who stick to quasi-Bulls Air Jordan colourways. Check out the pics after the jump and answer us this: would this colourway be successful/popular if it was released back in the day? via Yahoo!.

Whenever I think ‘Hayworth’, I think ‘Rita’, the 1940′s sex symbol that served as the inspiration (and cover-up) to Andy Dufresne’s heroic escape from Shawshank prison. Getting back on topic, the Y-3 Hayworth II Mid is making a push at becoming the “it” lifestyle sneaker, and that’s no surprise. Combine adidas classic hi-top attitude with Yohji Yamamoto’s sublime touch and you escape the made-for-kids typecast and enter the realm of high-end designer sneakers fit for any stylish occasion. This new colourway of the adidas Y-3 Hayworth II Mid comes in a zest colourway, and we all know a little lemon zest always brings out the flavor of an already savory dish. Get busy livin’, or get busy dyin’, or get busy picking up a pair at your Y-3 retailer now. via Freshness.

The Nike Air Max Hyperize has yet to hit retailers, but when it does, you better watch out. Here’s yet another standout colourway, and one that’s sure to get you some extra attention during summer league. This AM Hyperize has shades of the Decades Pack but misses an Air Max 95 Neon redux thanks to an entirely metallic silver upper. Volt accents have this thing looking practically radioactive, and it remains to be seen if they do in fact grant super powers. Stick with Sneaker News for updates. via FLUL

They call Tim Duncan ‘The Big Fundamental’ because his game is somewhat basic, if a bit boring. Only one of those is true about this new duo of Air Jordan 1 Fund lowtops, and the high-contrast styling leaves the first option out of the question. The colourways are pretty simple though: you can get a black pair with white contrast stitching, or a white pair with black hits and just a kiss of Carolina blue on the tongue. Grab one or both pairs of these visibly-Aired AJ1 Funds from Finish Line.
