Every Saturday of the month of February has been huge release after huge Jordan Brand releases. On February 6th, the highly anticipated Air Jordan VI Motorsports dropped. A week later the Silver Anniversary Air Jordan 1 and the groundbreaking Air Jordan 2010 was made available. Tomorrow won’t be much different, as a great colourway of the Jordan Spiz’ike will be available for purchase at Jordan retailers. This latest colourway of the multi-Jordan hybrid features a number of design cues and colors that are instantly recognized as Air Jordan trademarks; the “Oreo” print, use of Military Blue, and all-black elephant print all play parts in this great production. If you happened to be stranded on an island with a wireless router of immense capabilities, you can grab a pair from ebay.

Paul Pierce and his signature shoes with Nike stands as one of the biggest sneaker mysteries of our time. We can understand it not being put out for sale for men, but to be produced only for kids? Well, that’s a story for another time. Check out these new pics of The Truth wearing a new colourway of his Nike signature shoe, the Nike Air Legacy. The design is fairly simple, with a black upper and his number 34 stitched onto the rear heel, with green and gold trim completing the Celtics ‘Away’ motif. Check out the images after the jump and let us know; if they were released in men’s sizes, would you cop? via Yahoo Sports.

January and February was owned by Jordan Brand and Nike Basketball, but March could very well go to the Nike SB camp. All of the March Nike SB releases keep it simple and clean, like the Green Leaf Nike SB Bruin – a great alternative if you’re unwilling to shell out nearly two bills for the Green Supreme Bruins. A black/white Bruin is also avaiable, as well as Brian Anderson’s second Nike Dunk SB and a grey/red/blue Nike SB Dunk High that we previewed last month. Check out the individual shots and head on over with your wallet in hand to Flatspot.

The Nike HTM2 Run Boot is more than just a new-age sports boot, it is the culmination of efforts built up from years of radical ideas and visions of four of the greatest minds in footwear history. The sneaker Dream Team of Hiroshi Fujiwara, Tinker Hatfield, Mark Parker, and Mark Smith collaborated to produce a revolutionary ankle boot that combined classic style and new-age functionality, as they did with the Nike HTM Woven Boot in 2002.

The Nike HTM2 Run Boot, which Nike deems as “Born on the Track, Bred for the Street”, features a Nike Free grooved sole and a lightweight, water-repellant, four-way-flexibile upper while holding onto traditional Chelsea-boot design cues like the pull tabs and elastic gullet. The Run Boot Low arrives in four great colourways while the High comes in just one volt/anthracite color, and each features a protective toe-cap and a swoosh in a never-before-seen spray-stenciled design. The Nike HTM2 Run Boot is a Tier Zero release and will be available only in Japan and at 21 Mercer on February 20th and March 1st. Check out the collection of detailed images after the jump.

So we have some clarification on these upcoming Nike SB Dunk Highs, but they still really are an ‘Enigma’.  What we do know is that these brownish-yellow kicks are sporting a pair of scissors on the outer wings to shout out the old school practice of chopping down hightops into more skateable mids.  Apparently, the shoe was designed by 80s skate legend Neil Blender, and there’s some tie to vintage skate blog Chrome Ball Incident.  Stick with Sneaker News for updates on this mysterious SB that just popped up in a sample on SoleRhythm.  via N-SB.org

The Air Jordan White Collection Tour will kick off soon, with its first stop in the Windy City. The White Collection consists of all-white colourways of the entire Air Jordan Legacy from 1-XXV, but here are new images of a pair of the Air Jordan Alpha 1 in a new all-white delivery that could very well be part of the White Collection. The upper is completely white, with an clear “ice” sole, making the overall composition of the shoe very similar to the Air Jordan 1 Retro Platinum that released in 2002. Whether these are part of the 25th Anniversary festivities or just a new colourway of the Alpha 1 is up for debate, but these are still a clean colourway regardless of its affiliation with the Collection. via cubbiefan08 on NT.

Not too long ago we reported a few interesting colourways and textures of the Nike Air Royal Mid, like the Tonal Purple Royal Mid that appeared as if it was molded from a block of purple clay. If that didn’t really interest you, peep this new colourway of the Royal Mid in two tones of grey. The color combination seems particularly fitting for the shoe that was inspired by the Air Jordan 1 and other classic Nike Mids, and the toe box area looks to be iridescent under lightning while maintaining the concreteness of a solid dark grey color. You can grab your pair now from e-tailer CaliRoots.

By this point in the progression of streetwear and the sneaker game, camouflage is mostly a thing of the past.  Not only has the industry become more transparent thanks to exponentially growing coverage on the net, but camo also represents a ‘harder’ time that we’re taking a break from.  Leave it to OG graffiti legend Eric Haze to bring it back to the streets.

Haze got up with Stussy on three pairs of Pro-Keds Royals, no less, a shoe that until pretty recently, had been about as un-street as it gets.  Haze applied a macro camouflage here that would have been kinda boring, but his ability to address that with stars and polka dots reflects the asthetic sense that made him a legendary writer.  There’s one each in the ‘traditional’ four-colour camo, one in olive and tan, and another in black and grey, and all three just hit Caliroots.

Let’s take another look at the Nike Zoom Kobe V colourway that best deserves the simple nickname ‘Home’.  Teams traditionally wear white at home, but for the Lakers, it’s been gold since they moved from Minneapolis.  The Lake Show tend to wear white kicks at home to split the difference, and this cleanly styled edition is the default Staples Center sneaker.  These should hit retailers in April 2010, but Marquee Sole has a few sizes already.

Here’s a new shoe from Nike Basketball that fuses their Hyper- and Zoom Hustle series together with some good old fashioned Air Max cushioning.  The Nike Air Max Hyperfly has both the Flywire side panels from the Hyperdunk et al, and the Tony Parker sig’s smooth lines.  This one has a nice team colourway, but it’s releasing just around the time when all schools have stopped playing ball.  If you need a good AAU or summer league sneaker, check Nike BB retailers like Foot Locker this April.

Even though A.039 was apparently an internal designation for a particularly pleasing shade of royal blue, adidas continues to churn out kicks completely lacking that colour.  Whatever the naming convention, this adidas Originals Campus 80s is worth a look in this range of earthy tones.  Not a whole lot more to say about this shoe, but it will speak volumes about whomever rocks a pair.  They’re available from adidas Originals retailers like Caliroots.
