Everybody, move your feet and feel united o-o-ooh! Junior Senior had a minor hit in 2003 with ‘Move Your Feet’, but ALIFE has been considerably less of a flash in the pan. A good portion of this ascention from burgeoning boutique brand to worldwide distribution and reknown is due to the Nike Dunk-like Everybody series, which is back in a trio of new colorways befitting the current state of streetwear. The ALIFE Everybody Hi Lux Leather Pack brings us three monochromatic pairs with entirely-leather uppers and tonal suede tongues. You can choose from red, white or black, which means that you’re covered for your entire wardrobe, or possibly your mood on any given day. Be on the lookout at your local ALIFE account, cos these are already available at Japan’s Kinetics.

In case you need a refresher on what’s hot right now in fashion and sneakers, check out this new run of Nike Air Max 90s for summer 2010. Both of them go with a simple two-toned design, which means is you’re getting an iconic athletic look that’s clearly tailored for ‘lifestyle’ purposes, and a shoe that should match almost any outfit you could think of. Take a look at these pairs in black/white and grey/white after the jump and stick with Sneaker News so we can update you on when these hit stateside NSW retailers. via Dunk.com.cn

We could have just written ‘perfect’ and left the rest of this space blank, but that’s just kinda silly. On the other hand, how could this shoe be any better, for what it is?! The Converse Skateboarding (CONS) CTS Low Ox appears above in a yummy cream colored suede with red and blue hits on the foxing and midsole, respectively. If that color combination on an all-time American classic weren’t enough, they added a gum rubber sole to this pair to give them that timeless feel. Check for these at your local CONS retailer soon, they just dropped at Korea’s Kasina.

When we showed you these in late January, only the bookiest of worms would have been excited about ‘back to school’. Winter break had just ended and while summer’s now right around the corner, another school year will start in August/September just as sure as the sun sets. Among the most natural looks slated for Fall 2010 is this Crayola x Vans pack of Authentic lowtops. Each features significant (color)-on-white crayon scribbling, with some adding a second color for contrast and one particularly eye-catching pair going the checkerboard route. Expect Sk8-His and Slip-Ons with the same design characteristics, but for now, check out more images of the Crayola x Vans Authentics after the jump. via HS

Here’s a Nike Blazer that may be a little more subtle others we’ve shown lately, but its the slight variation in the medial panels that make this an interesting pair. While black pebbled leather takes over the upper sans white tongue and laces, the shoe’s character comes form the maze-like embosses textile. It might be nice to see some color for the laces to help break up the layout, but still a noteworthy pair to throw into the mix- maybe as an everyday shoe. Purchase now at FinishLine.

Nike Sportswear’s Fall 2010 footwear collection has a bunch of satisfying releases, including the Infrared Air Max 90s and two colorways of Deion Sanders’ most famous signature. The shoe pictured above is equally satisfying, reviving a look we haven’t seen in years while infusing a breath of fresh (Zoom) air. The Nike Zoom Don is very much like a midtop Air Zoom Spiridon, but the exaggerated midsole tooling leads to a trainer look that’s significantly more aggressive than the 1997 original runner. On the other hand, the pair pictured above is a bit cooler than the OG, though, eschewing bred for a nice white/purple/silver trio. Fall in fashion means July through September, or thereabouts, but you can grab a sample pair in US men’s size 9 early from sneakouz on eBay.

Last year the Jordan VI retro quickly became the most anticipated release for early 2010, despite the fact that the Jays donned Varsity Red rather than the favorite Infrared. It was a huge blow when word recently got out that JB would, in fact, release a Jordan VI Infrared Package later this year. We can see how several ways this will affect our readers; some will try to sell their Varsity Reds now to make way for the Infrareds, some might say ‘screw it’ and still cop anyway, while others will feel the upcoming limited release of the Infrareds won’t be worth the hassle. All reasonable and plausible scenarios.
However, some are taking their own stand and simply changing their VR’s into Infrareds themselves. Word got out about a specific craft marker that, when applied, produces a quite accurate (and quite permanent) Infrared effect. With patience and a steady hand, these Jordan 6 owners solved their own dilemmas by spending only an extra 3 bucks. One person even tried the inverted look by coloring the entire midsole using the traditional Angelus paint. Take a look at the photos; the alterations look quite clean and alluring to try oneself. via NT.

Last time we saw new photos, the Air Jordan IX ‘Citrus’ was slated for a July release. That was just last Monday, but since then, we’ve been treated to another Citrus AJIX, this time in white, not to mention all of the other summer Jordan Brand releases that prominently feature bright yellow. Here’s another new development: the ‘original’ Citrus AJIXs with the black base are actually available well in advance of the official date. Be the envy of all your friends, sneakerhead and casual fans alike, when you cop the Citrus Nines nearly three months early from RMKstore on eBay.

We got a pretty big response when we showed those Jordan 8′s crumbling apart. Some of you may have felt it was worse because it was a rare sample, but think of it like this- it would be just as terrible to realize your Olive 9′s (OG or Retro) are coming apart. Must hurt so bad to finally open up that wrap and start to hear the thousands of bits and pieces scattering around. A favorite to the true Jordan heads, you wouldn’t even wish that upon your enemy. But at least we get a look at some of the anatomy, or what’s left of it. Additionally we can all benefit from posts like this because comments lead to advice for better shoe care. But in the end, the moral of the story is shrink wrapping is like slow-action kryptonite to your kicks. Maybe the owner can use that back Jordan tab as a pendent of some sort. via Kenlu

The Nike Air Max+ 2010 will be another newly designed Nike running model included in the Nike Air Attack Pack, joining the Nike Air Max 24/7 as the ‘fresh meat’ of the bunch. Fresh and meaty it is, as the Air Max+ 2010 comes in five jolting colorways fitting the neon theme of the Air Attack Pack. The Nike Air Max+ 2010 Air Attack Pack features four black-uppered colorways with each featuring a different trim, and a fifth Tennisball-esque variety adding the necessary Air Attack jolt. All five pairs are set to release at Nike Harajuku on Wednesday, April 28th, but stick with Sneaker News and we’ll hit you with U.S. release dates. Check out the five colorways after the jump and let us know which AM2010 Air Attack colorway you’re looking to prey on.
