Supra continues to roll out its Fall 2010 collection even in advance of the summer solstice. Here are the new Supra Thunder colorways, three new pairs that offer a wide range of ways to express yourself through footwear. First up is the pinstriped pair pictured above that might look like a NY Yankees getup at first glance, but it’s actually black and white, not navy. There’s another pair that uses that same white canvas, but keeps it clean, with just a touch of black on the heel and sole. Last but not least, a yellow canvas pair has that ‘Bic’ look with select black accents. Check for these today at your local Supra stockist.

Chris Paul has his own Jordan Brand signature three years running, but even if you had the same sweet deal, you’d want your share of Air Jordan PEs, right?! Here’s an example of how amazing it can be, signed to JB, an Air Jordan XII PE with CP3′s name literally written all over it. These joints are similar to the Flu Game XIIs with their use of pebbled leather on the mudguards and nubuck on the side panels, but we’ve never seen this Uni blue-on-black look with yellow accents on a Twelve before. Is this possibly the best PE Chris Paul’s ever had? Take a look back at some other memorable CP3 PE’s after the jump and let us know how these rate. via CP’s Twitter

Jordan Brand’s latest lifestyle sneaker takes its inspiration from classic boot designs. The Jordan V.2 Grown replaces the Campus Chukka, but remains close to its heritage with that unmistakable lace placket. What’s new on the V.2 Grown is the Chelsea boot-like elastic gusset that means you don’t actually have to tie and untie these joints to get them on. Add that they come in super-versatile colorways like grey/black/white and black/white, and these are a can’t miss for the upcoming fall season. Grab the grey pair, the black ones or both now from Boston’s Concepts and other select JB retailers.

There’s no place like home, is there? No other Laker showed up for Game 5 but Game 6 switched coasts, as the NBA Finals shifted back to the Staples Center after three grueling games in Boston. Playing with their backs against the wall, Kobe and crew had the game pretty much wrapped up by the second quarter, and by the end of the fourth quarter, the Boston Celtics scored a paltry 67 points, the second lowest scoring production by any team in the NBA Finals.
Kobe and Lamar Odom gladly switched back to their Home colorways of the Big Stage Zoom Kobe V and Nike Hyperdunk PE, while the Boston Celtics did the opposite by rocking some Away digs. Sheed brought out his all-green Nike Air Force 1 High, Nate Robinson went with the Phantom Air Max LeBron VII, Rajon Rondo whipped out a black/green Hyperfuse PE, and Ray Allen wore a similarly colored Air Jordan Icons. If only their offense was as coordinated as their shoes. Check out the Game 6 gallery after the jump and let’s hear your predictions: Who’s winning Game 7? via Yahoo!.

We’ve seen previews since spring, and now Nike Sportswear’s Omega Pack for Fall 2010 is finally starting to hit retail. Comprised of Nike Air Max 1s and its update, the Air Maxim 1+, the Omega Pack celebrates the old Athletics West training compound with colorways that are at once modern and slightly vintage. First up is a pair of AM1s that’s leaning toward autumn weather with a dark navy blue upper, red accents and light tan laces. Click the jump below for more shots of this new Eighty-Seven and cop a pair from Premier or get yours now on eBay.

Before Ray Allen became their main man in the Pacific Northwest, Jordan Brand’s first Seattle Supersonic was former All Star power forward Vin Baker. Vin’s career didn’t maintain the strong start he enjoyed in Seattle, but his first JB signature remains a key relic in the company’s history. The Air Jordan Pro Strong is somewhere between Air Jordans XII and XIII, replacing the XIII’s ‘golf ball’ dimples with long lines of stitching not totally unlike the XII’s sunray pattern. Available now are the OG black/white/pine and a new bred colorway, both of which you can find at Boston’s CNCPTS.

Proof that at its best, hybridization and modular design can produce brilliant designs, there’s a new Nike Lunar Presto Rejuven8 that just hit retail shelves. These all-black runners combine the Lunar Rejuven8′s Torch upper and LunarLite sole with the Presto’s lacing system. Unlike Presto releases that are sized like t-shirts, the Lunar Presto comes in a range of sizes from 6.5-15, and you can cop a pair today from FinishLine.

In case you’re one of the stubborn few who refuse to acknowledge the truly global phenomenon that is soccer, World Cup 2010 is in session right now in South Africa. For those in the know, Germany, Italy and Brazil are three countries with rich football heritages, and each of these countries sees its flag and colors appearing on a new pair of Puma Tekkies. A deconstructed plimsoll, the Tekkies feature a floppy canvas design and frayed ankle collar. Check out photos of all three pairs after the jump and check for these at your local Puma retailer. via Kenlu

The Puma Post Up Hi is a lifestyle shoe taken from basketball roots. These might not be suitable for the courts, but they were intended for the streets anyway, with a vulcanized sole, slim fit, and high tongue. Right off the bat, you’re probably eyeing the interesting graphic – yes, it’s very much like the elephant print from the Air Jordan III – but these are indeed Pumas. The Post Up Hi features breathable side panels as well as ankle cushioning for days. Check out the detailed shots after the jump and pick up a pair from mita.

Eric Koston’s first Nike SB shoe was this sweet Thailand-flag inspired colorway of the Nike SB Dunk Low. Nike SB deemed Koston deserving of more than one shoe, because a Nike SB Dunk High in a regal gold as well as a Nike SB Pro Model is set to release in 2010. The other day Sneaker News showed you a neat vid of both Koston and Brian Anderson discussing the structure of their Custom Series Nike SBs, in which Koston discusses the reasoning behind the use of a new sole material, as well as the addition of the heel pod taken from the Nike SB Zoom Tre. These SB Dunk Lows released a few weeks ago but if you missed out, these are still available at a fair price at Kicks-Crew as well as on eBay.
