As we’ve seen through their Fall 2010 previews, the Supra footwear lineup has grown up nicely from its beginnings with the Skytop. They’ve continued to add models every few months or so, but with all these new designs, don’t forget about the original ‘other’ Supra. The Supra Vaider is back for fall with a single new colorway as of today, one that makes up for the pinstripe pair being in black with its Yankees-friendly navy blue and white colorup. The mix of patent leather and suede gives a nice tonal effect and you can cop a pair today from your local Supra stockist.

In 2004 a special pair of the Nike Air Max 1 was released; the colorway of red, yellow, and black represented the Urawa Dragons of Japan. Here in 2010, a new women’s colorway of the Air Max 1 has a stark resemblance to that ’04 releases (which fetches well over $200 these days). From the black midfoot portion to the yellow Nike branding on the tongue, this new release is a great attempt at a “retro”, although the mesh area is now white and the bottom sole is gum instead of black. The upper is solar red – quite similar to Infrared – instead of the Jersey Red on the original. The Urawa Nike Air Max 1 is one of the rare 87s to have released but this new WMNS colorway is close enough (just slap on some yellow laces), so watch for these to drop at Nike Sportswear accounts soon or pick one up overseas from Dunk.

The Foot Locker House of Hoops opened its Harlem, NYC location during the Winter of 2007; it quickly became a favorite destination of the neighborhood, residents of the outer boroughs, and out-of-towners on vacation. The trek uptown can be a task, but lucky for us a House of Hoops retail spot will open up on 34th Street in Manhattan, the second HoH location in the borough. It will be located next to another New York City landmark building – the Empire State Building. These sports-specific shops should thrive in New York City; a Foot Locker store dedicated to running opened up late last year in Union Square and has become a popular destination for lovers of the sport/exercise. Check back with Sneaker News and we’ll let you know when the store officially opens up. via F5tofresh.

The Air Jordan Alpha 1 Outdoor came outta left field for its unexpected debut as a CC Sabathia PE around MLB Opening Day. The weather’s more appropriate for outdoor ballin’ in the summer months, so get ready for a proper rollout of this rugged AJ1 redux. The pair pictured above features a Laser Blue shade that practically explodes from the base of greys and black, a look that’s both warm weather-friendly and versatile. They’re part of Jordan Brand’s Fall 2010 footwear collection and should be out soon, so click the jump below for more images. via Dunk

Here’s a new Nike Dunk Low for June 2010, and it’s immediately one of the best lowtop Dunks from Nike Sportswear all year. You might call these ‘Grape’ Dunks, cos the mostly white design has teal and purple accents that are sure to remind you of the legendary Air Jordan V. Beyond the classic colorway, these look super crisp with a mix of smooth and tumbled leathers and are certainly a candidate for best all-white kicks this summer. Grab a pair today from an NSW retailer like JBseller on eBay.
Style: 318019-100
Color: White/White-Purple Punch

The Nike Air Max Wavy and it’s affordable pricetag can be viewed as a Foamposite Lite. But wait, there already IS a Foamposite Lite! Nevertheless, this recently released pair of Nike Basketball kicks should be a popular one, given it’s Foam tendencies, sub-Benjamin pricetag, and variety of colors, like this new Dirty Copper colorway. Don’t be surprised if other Foamposite colorways start to surface – although the upper material on the Wavy might not be the Foam material. The Nike Air Max Wavy has begun to pop up everywhere so be on the lookout for this new colorway at Nike basketball retailers near you. via TSG.

The white-on-white Nike Air Force 1 is a quintessentially ‘summer’ shoe, but you can look just as fresh going the opposite route. These new Uptowns are nearly all black, but there’s a healthy portion of white hits as well. The most unique of these ‘blank’ contrasts is the pattern that appears on the rear quarter and side panels, which looks something like a beaded curtain or maybe a spiderweb. In any case, these pinstriped AF1 Lows are ready to go and you can cop them from select Nike Sportswear retailers including Caliroots’ Six Feet Down specialty store.

The Boston Celtics very well might have lost their shot at a second NBA title in three years because of too much isolation in the later stages of Game 7, but don’t tell Jordan Brand that ‘team’ and ‘iso’ play can’t be the same style. The Air Jordan Team Iso is a curiously named sneaker whose high end design makes you wonder what the next Air Jordan Franchise model will look like. It also gives us a sneak peek into this year’s special Quai 54 colorup, which will apparently be a simple mix of black and Varsity Maize with a little white thrown in for good measure. Take a look at more angles after the jump and let us know if the Quai 54 Team Iso has you excited for a stateside release. via Kinetics

LeBron James broke his Playoff tradition of wearing he Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier and went with the LeBron VII P.S., a second signature shoe designed for LeBron’s postseason play. LeBron and his Cavs didn’t enjoy the end result (they were sent packing in Round 2) so who knows what would’ve happened if LeBron wore the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier IV? They haven’t released in the states just yet but two colorways are now available on Nikestore UK; White/Red/Black as well as an interesting combo of Grey/Purple/White are now available for purchase across the pond, but Sneaker News will let you know when these hit the states. For now, check out these new images of the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier IV, available now at Nikestore UK.

The other day Sneaker News showed you one of the colorways of the Jordan CP3 Tribute, a clever mix of the third Air Jordan and Chris Paul shoe. This new colorway of Black, Cement Grey, Varsity Red, and White keeps it even closer to the vest; we don’t need to tell you which Air Jordan III colorway this emulates. In fact, the entire CP3 tribute just looks like an updated version of the Air Jordan III, just with a CP3 logo on the tongue, the honey-combed traction on the bottom sole, and of course the speckled midsole. Check out the detailed images after the jump and let us know if you think this ‘Tribute’ is worthy of Michael Jordan. via Dunk.
