Nike Air Max Hyperfly Supreme   NBA PE Pack

With this pack of Nike Air Max Hyperfly Supreme PEs, one of the five is a ‘Waldo’; can you find it?  It’s not because the red and white striping on the Hyperfly’s midsole looks like the character’s famous garb, but rather, where are Ben Gordon and his Detroit Pistons?  BG7 and Deeetroit Basketball missed the playoffs for the first time in about a decade, which makes this pack a little different, given that the rest of the guys represented are all currently still alive and kicking toward the Larry O’Brien Trophy.  Simple, team oriented colorways for Shawn Marion, Brandon Roy, Paul Pierce and Tony Parker each feature their guy’s personal Nike ‘logo’ on the heel of a Flywire-equipped upper.  The pack is available stateside at House of Hoops, with all five PE’s also at Japanese e-tailer LTD, and most of the models up on eBay as well.

Air Jordan Flight 9   White   Black   Varsity Red | Available on eBay

We’ve seen a bunch of new Air Jordan Flight 9 colorways recently, but here’s one that very well might best represent the era this shoe seeks to capture.  The simple white upper with red and black accents is a ‘pure’ palette that you’d immediately identify with the Air Jordan III and IV, and it’s clear this design was strongly influenced by both.  The AJ6 is also well represented here with its Air bubble frame and lace loop, but even the Sixes didn’t have as much translucency on their outsole as these.  Grab your own Air Jordan Flight 9s today from your local JB retailer or ID4Shoes on eBay.

Color: White/Black-Varsity Red

Air Jordan LStyle Advanced   Varsity Red   Sample | Fall 2010

If you missed the ‘memos’ that are the recent Campus Chukka releases, here’s a written warning: don’t sleep on Jordan Brand lifestyle sneakers.  The simplest name of the bunch, the Air Jordan L’Style hightop is back with the tweaked L’Style Advanced, and its monochromatic red design is sure to break necks.  There’s a tonal effect from suede and mixing leathers with varying degrees of perforation, but the only accent colors come in on a redesigned ankle strap and front wing.  A sign of good things to come, before you can grab a sample in US mens size 9 from cigar0330 on eBay.

Color: Varsity Red/Varsity Red

Air Jordan Flight 9   White Olympic   Sample | Fall 2010

The Flight 45 was named after MJ’s short stint as a minor league baseball player, so what about the Air Jordan Flight 9?  For those of you who might not even have been born, Michael Jordan wore number 9 while leading the Dream Team to Olympic gold at the 1992 Barcelona games.  Fitting, then, to see a colorway for the Flight 9 that combines basic colors in a way very similar to Google, Microsoft, eBay, and oh yeah, the Olympic Air Jordan VI.  We previewed a black Olympic Flight 9 back in February, but these are truer to the Oly Six with their white patent leather upper.  Take a look at some new images of this upcoming release after the jump, and you can cop a US mens size 9 sample from cigar0330 on eBay.

Nike Air Max Hyperize   Air Attack Pack

Bringing something new to the table, Nike invites the Air Max Hyperize to be the first basketball shoe to join the Air Attack Pack. Staying consistent with the rest of the collection, solid blocked uppers of black or silver get hit with the same colors seen in some of the other pieces from the Air Attack capsule. These colors continue into the full foot air bag to give these some serious pop. These are expected to drop some time in June, and be sure that these will go fast when they hit shelves. Take a look at the complete Air Attack Air Max Hyperize collection after the jump and stay tuned for more info.

Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke by Ellias Vernias

It might not be the ideal time of year for dark brown kicks, but there’s no doubting the brilliance of this new Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke by Ellias Vernias.  This shoe screams ‘premium quality’ from every angle, combining a variety of luxe materials in the most skillful of ways.  Vernias’ Bespokes go with a tonal brown mix of oiled leather and suedes, plus a scored dark obsidian leather on the tongue and Swooshes.  This rich mix is held to a clear ice sole with a purple stitch that proves its designer has an eye for color.  Check out some more shots after the jump and get up with Nike Sportswear in New York to create your own.

Sole Boutique x Saucony Shadow 5000

Sole Boutique holds it down for the San Antonio sneaker community and is now proud to present its new collab with Saucony. The Shadow 5000 is bombarded with an overload of graphic elements, colors and materials, it’s hard decide where to start. The black suede gets neon yellow contrast stitching, all overlaying slate mesh for the toebox and medial panel. You’ll find 3M on the Saucony brand panel, while the midsole gets a neon speckle. The aesthetics continue with snakeskin by the ankle, and Sole Boutique imagery etched on the back heel and tongue. And finally the shoe gets some more pop on the gel sole with neon, as well as for the secondary laces. A lot to absorb, we know. If you’re looking for a loud statement, these will be dropping in July with pairs limited to 100. via SF

Nike Trainer SC 2010 Low   Air Attack Pack

Yet another classic that gets integrated with modern-day technology, the Trainer SC 2010 has received a lot of good feedback.  Maybe it’s because of strong colorways accompanying them, such as the Pacman’s and OG colors.  Some more dope CW’s to add to the mix will soon be on the way from the Air Attack Pack, as we see these SC Lows get the monochrome/bright accented effect.  We haven’t seen many Trainers that fit this look, as it’s more common to see on Air Maxes and Dunks, but it seems to work just fine.  These are reported to be releasing in June, so stay tuned for more details and check out more pics of the pack after the jump.
