It’s increasingly common these days to see top tier signature basketball shoes released in college PE colourways. The guys at Wake Forest aren’t supposed to be making any money off their hard work, so these Air Jordan CP3.III Player Exclusives are a nice extra. The two pairs pictured above flip the black and white sections to let you know whether they’ll be used at home or on the road, with yellow contrast stitching and ‘WF’ on the tongue tag finishing off the Deamon Deacons’ motif. No word yet on whether these will join the ranks of Jordan Brand alma mater PEs on House of Hoops shelves, but they’ll be on display Saturday as the Deacs take on recently PE’d UNC.

The former basketball model and now adidas Originals mainstay Nizza High – part of the adidas Originals OT Tech Pack – has been a fan favorite for quite some time. Last summer the Nizza came adorned with a zipper that spanned the entire high of the shoe, going from the heel to the ankle. This re-invented Nizza High is set to re-release in a wider distribution (if you couldn’t get your hands on a pair last time) in four great colourways – black, navy, red, and olive. Each pair has a single-colored upper, white toe-cap, vulcanized midsole, and the newly infused zipper on the rear, with each pair stamped with a uniquely colored adi logo on the tongue. Look for the Nizza High Zip Pack at adidas Originals retailers soon. via FnG.

Sneakerheads collectively erupted with joy at the announcement this week that the 25th Anniversary Air Jordan III, IV and IX will all release on March 20th. Only catch is, each model will only be available at some stores, so it will take a bit of coordination to get the entire set. Well, if you happen to be in or have connects down South of the Border, you might be in luck. Colmilludo reports that Mexican boutique Shelter will have these Pure Air Jordan IIIs starting on March 3rd, so you might be able to work with that (on eBay at the very least). Take a look at some new photos after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for all the Air Jordan 25th Anniversary release dates.

In case you missed last night’s game in Boston, LeBron James is still hanging after absorbing contact. This dude’s a beast on the level of say, a Rolls Royce Phantom, and King James broke out the best for Thursday night’s Bean Town beatdown. The Nike Air Max LeBron VII has released in a black Phantom colorup with gold trim, but those were leather. This Alternate Phantom AML7 is totally murked out and features suede in place of leather along the swooping mudguard. A clean look made all the more impressive by finally getting a win at TD Garden, check out more photos of the Air Max LeBron VII Suede Phantoms after the jump. via Yahoo!

With two distinct Scottie Pippen-based hybrid designs on the way, Nike Sportswear is dropping one of the 6-time NBA Champ’s best loved signatures. The Nike Air Pippen 1 was never released in this white/orange colourway, mostly cos Scottie was always playing for teams in red and black. Looks like he would have done well in Phoenix, judging from these, and they have a very appealing summer look for your upcoming fashion needs. Expect these at retailers like Foot Locker in late June.

With all the Skytop IIs and TK Society releases getting a lot of shine, you may have forgotten about the Supra Cruizer. This lowtop is a testament to the cross pollination of skate and basketball sneakers, a clearly skateable shoe that owes much to the iconic Air Jordan IV design, and really, Jays in general. They pumped out a couple Grape and Aqua colourups last year and now this trio of new Cruizers is each derived from one of the OG AJIV releases. You get one in white with red and black accents, one in black with cement grey and white and the last pair has Military Blue intentions. Check your local Supra retailer today.

James Bond’s collaboration with David Beckham on the adidas Originals ObyO campaign is starting to become quite massive. That’s true of both the size of the spread, and of this shoe in particular. The adidas Originals Marathon TR Mid Gore-Tex is a new boot with ’80s basketball aesthetics. You can tell these were meant more for climbing than the courts, thanks to a super aggressive outsole that uses the Trifoil as its traction pattern. More crazy stuff here from Bond and Becks, the Marathon TR is yours for the taking from Size? via FRESHNESS

We just got a look at the extended Jean-Michel Basquiat capsule for Reebok’s Affili’Art collection, so how about the other noteworthy contributor? Feride Uslu has a disco-fied Retro Pop hightop on the way, along with this apparently white Reebok Courtee Mid. We say ‘apparently’ because you can see it’s not your standard flat white here, and that signals a glow in the dark overlay. These are set to drop with a complimentary nail polish, which looks like there may be a small drop on the heels already. In any case, be sure to stick with Sneaker News for updates on their release. via Dunk.com.cn

The latest Nike Dunk Low CL would have been welcome a couple weeks ago along with the rest of Nike’s Olympic Pack Dunks. As it stands, they’re coming in on the tail end of one of the most talked about Winter Games since Harding/Kerrigan in ’94, and these new CLs have what it takes to last another decade and a half. You simply can’t go wrong with the clean mix of white and navy (unless you insist on wearing them with black gear). Grab a pair today from Caliroots.

The latest in leather-uppered renditions of the Nike Air Max 90 comes in the Black/White/Silver colourway that matches the Oakland Raiders unis to a tee. The black leather mudguard sits atop the black Air Max casing, with a black perforated leather toebox, and bl…well you get the point. However, the metallic silver bounces off well against the black base, and a grey trip on the ankle and front lace holes give some light to this otherwise dark pair. You can grab this latest Nike Air Max 90 over at Caliroots.
Style: 309299-908
Color: Black/Metallic Silver
