The recent wave of White-and-3M Air Force 1 Lows and Mids had old-school AF1 heads excited again, but here’s a loud new colorway for the ones who enjoy the noise; featuring a combination of Sport Red and Light Bone, this new Nike Air Force 1 features a neat striped graphic on the center and heel panels. From afar, the graphic looks like a textured applique but the dots that make up the lines are actually painted on. In fact, the shoe is exactly the same as the Christmas Day Air Force 1 QS of last year , with the same tongue tag and color combo, but the added ‘wallpaper’ marks this as a new pair. Fitting for Valentine’s Day, but wearable anytime; grab them now at SNS.
Style: 318775-600
Color: Sport Red/Sport Red-Light Bone

If there were a single shoe you’d say is the epitome of American footwear, it’s this one. Not only is the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star High a living legend in the world of sneakers, but this Stars & Bars edition will have you more eager to tie ‘em up than the refs in yesterday’s World Cup tilt against Slovenia. Check out the red, white and blue flag-cents that make this a special pair of Chucks and then cop a pair or 50 from a Sweedish store who knows enough about the history of the shoe name to have one of our states in their name: Caliroots’ Six Feet Down.

A special colorway of the Huf Hupper will release next Saturday, June 26th, at the San Francisco and Los Angeles Huf locations. Just 111 pairs will be available of the Numero Uno, the mid-top skate-shoe which is also the first official Huf shoe. Featuring a white midsole and a navy blue upper with a special “1″ graphic on the rear heel, the Huf Hupper Numero Uno should double as a lifestyle shoe quite effortlessly. Continue reading for full release info on this limited shoe and head to Huf next weekend for the release.

Introducing the strapless Nike SB Dunk Mid. Ok, actually, these pairs have already been introduced via our exclusive preview earlier this week, and they’re not actually out yet in America, but we do have some new images to peep of what looks to be the first strapless SB Dunk Mid to hit retail. These come in that indomitable red/black/white colorway that Michael Jordan made famous with a similar sole about 25 years ago, but the Mid sans strap is a look that’s fresh for 2010. Check out some more angles after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for updates on these and all Nike SB release dates. via Arktz.

With long journeys reaching an end and upcoming releases confirmed, the last week in Sneaker News should leave you with feelings of anxiety and anticipation. The NBA season officially ended with the Lakers winning it all, so now all focus can be put on the FIBA World Championships and the blockbuster free-agency market. After numerous previews and detailed looks, the Air Jordan VI Infrared Pack will finally release, and we expect a crazy release event across the nation. Sneaker News also brought you some great looks at upcoming Nike Sportswear and Retro releases from Fall 2010 to Spring 2011, a welcome breather from all the Jordan hoopla. A first look at next year’s Nike Air Max installment was revealed as well, showing a complete overhaul of the upper.
There was plenty for the here and now as well; Sneaker News brought you a detailed look at the Air Jordan XIII Premio as well as some unreleased samples of shoes that were both released and stuck on the cutting room floor. Supra also made some noise, as we got a look at their recent releases and upcoming colorways, and an HTM-designed Footscape Woven (how often do you see these) also grabbed attention. We also got a look at another impressive Air Jordan collection with an admirable display to boot. There’s much more to see – celebs, NBA ballers, recently released kicks – so get caught up on all things sneakers by checking in with our Sneaker News Weekly Rewind.

If you’re the type that enjoys previews as much as the actual movie, check out this sneak peek at what’s to come in Fall 2010 to the end of the year. A runner-heavy line-up includes new colorways of the Nike Shox R4 as well as the Nike Air Max 2010 and the new Nike Air Max Tailwind+ 3. We also get a nice look at the upcoming re-retro of Nike Air DT Max ’96 LE in the black/white/yellow colorway as well.
As always, the best is saved for last; check out the two colorways of the Nike Air Griffey Max II in black/blue as well as black/neon green. The Dunkman-esque colorway of the Griffey is a definite first for that model, and anything with Volt seems to muster up a ton of excitement. No word on concrete release dates just yet so check out the extra sneak peeks after the jump and let us know which pair you’re after. Thanks to 1C3M4M of NT.

It’s that time again. Sneakerheads have already begun to camp out for the Air Jordan VI Infrared Pack, so the question is, how will you get yours? The Infrared Pack was undoubtedly one of Jordan Brand’s best kept secrets, although the timing seemed to be a bit perplexing. The Air Jordan VI Varsity Red was a definite success in terms of sales and popularity, but once rumor became fact, those who purchased the Black/Varsity Red pair felt duped, hoodwinked, bamboozled…(take your pick). Nonetheless, the Air Jordan VI Infrared is an Original Air Jordan colorway and the fact that both will arrive in a package is a pretty sweet deal. Availability will be limited to some degree – with some stores having less than 10 available – so do what you can to guarantee yourself a pair. How tough will it be? Let’s hope it doesn’t turn out like the Air Jordan XI Space Jam release. If time is money, you can always shell out a few extra bucks by picking up a pair on eBay. Good luck!

The ‘Cough Drop’ Foamposite One was given that nickname due to its translucent red outsole, giving the appearance of an oversized Luden’s throat soother. Although eating the shoe as a cough remedy isn’t recommended, the Foamposite does in fact manage to do two things; give you a Prozac-like happiness and lighten the load of your wallet. Niketown in NYC already gave out wristbands, anticipating the hoopla behind the shoe, and the House of Hoops was also confirmed as a source for the Foams. Now 21 Mercer – the Nike Sportswear store in SoHo – will also drop these Foams, so New Yorkers can now add a third option to the list. The Nike Air Foamposite One Cough Drop will release tomorrow at the three aforementioned locations, but you can always grab a pair now on eBay.

Yesterday night, Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers won their fifth championship in eleven seasons. Kobe will be the first to say that this championship was a true team victory; Kobe didn’t have his A-game (25% from the field) but the script was flipped as the rest of the Lakers squad had to carry its superstar to victory. Kobe called this championship the sweetest one yet because it proved to be most difficult – and beating the Celtics didn’t hurt. The Black Mamba may need to have his thumb measured (assuming he wants to wear all rings on one hand), but all you need to know is your shirt size because this sweet 5-Rings Black Mamba t-shirt just dropped at Nikestore.

The Nike Trainer 1 debuted last year and saw special colorways created not only for the New York Yankees, but also pitcher Chien Ming Wang. Here’s the latest Trainer designed for the Bronx Bombers, the Nike Air Trainer 1 360 II. These are even Yankee-r than last year’s joints, going with a grey base and navy pinstripes, plus a ton of custom details. From ‘NEW’ ‘YORK’ on the heels, to a year-by-year accounting of the Yanks’ World Series crowns and a Joe DiMaggio quote stitched into the tongue tags, these Air Trainer 1 360s do a great job of capturing the Evil Empire’s legacy. Unfortunately for their legion of fans, these were given to the players and will likely never hit retail. Click the jump below for detailed images, cos that’s apparently as close as we’ll ever get to having a pair. via TSG
