Rick Ross celebrated the release of his fourth studio album, Teflon Don, with a release party that was held at King of Diamonds in Miami, Florida on Tuesday, July 20th. A number of Ross’ closest friends and rappers attended the party, including Gucci Mane, Trina, DJ Khaled, and more. Khaled whose been working with Ross since his first studio album, showed up to the party wearing a Teflon Don t-shirt in Black and Red and matched his tee with a pair of the recently released “Stealth “Air Jordan Spiz’ike’s. While Khaled may not have shown up to the party in a helicopter like Ross, his kicks were definitely the better of the two larger than life hip-hop stars.

Two-toned Nike Air Force 1s abound in 2010, and here’s a look at why you can’t go wrong with the venerable AF1 silhouette. A release that’ll draw attention even from those unaccustomed to Uptowns, the AF1 High pictured above is a perfect way to show you know what’s up with fashion in this moment, with its simple Light Charcoal and white colorway a suitable match for literally anything you could pair them with. Add in the ultra-lush suede upper and these are a can’t miss. Check out more shots after the jump and prepare for these to hit select Nike Sportswear retailers including Foot Locker on Saturday, August 14th.

We’ve seen countless Vans Sk8-His with Off the Wall’s signature checkerboard pattern, but here’s another look for the iconic hightop skater with a different classic pattern. The Vans Sk8-Hi Stripes Pack is comprised of a trio of releases with vibrant canvas toes, eyelets, Vans stripes and heels, with a color-on-white vertical stripe textile on the side panels. They’re available in the three primary colors of visible light, with the blue pair somewhat darker and leaning toward navy. Check out photos of all three after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for word of a possible stateside release; they’re out now in Japan at retailers like ABC-Mart.

The Air Jordan 2010 debuted in February of 2010 when Dwyane Wade and fellow Jordan Brand representatives Gerald Wallace and Joe Johnson sported three memorable colorways during the 2010 NBA All-Star Game. After a slew of great colorways, the Air Jordan 2010 will take a back seat for the summer, giving way to the Air Jordan 2010 Outdoor. The Outdoor version of the 2010 shares very little with the Legacy model; the large window replaced by countless ventilation holes and the addition of the a cross-instep strap are the two main differences, rendering the Outdoor 2010 a completely new show. The first colorway – White/Black-Varsity Red – is slated for an August release but some Jordan accounts like corporate have gotten these in early, so don’t miss out!

Trainer fans were treated to a great five-colorway capsule called the Nike Trainer 1.2 Mid Legends Pack – one of the great pairs being the blue-on-blue Kansas City Royals inspired colorway paying tribute to Bo Jackson. Bo also played for another team during his prime – the Los Angeles Raiders. Check out this new colorway of Nike Trainer SC 2010 in an Los Angeles Raiders colorway of black and grey. The upper features a perforated medium grey nubuck material with black on the Flywire panel and mudguard. This new colorway of the Trainer SC 2010 just released at Nikestore so head there to snag a pair.
Color: Medium Grey/White-Black

Here’s a new colorway of the Air Jordan Flight 9 with a color-combination that might seem familiar. In 2006, Jordan Brand released a women’s colorway of the Air Jordan VII in Black, Citrus, and Varsity Red. Although the color used in the Flight 9 is Bright Ceramic (a slightly more orange tone), the overall motif is the same. However this pair features orange and red speckling on the midsole much like the Air Max 90 Sertig Pack that released in 2005. This colorway of the Air Jordan Flight 9 is just a new shoe model with inspirations from older classics. Check out the extra images and cop a pair now from Finishline.

A Bathing Ape founder Nigo has an eye for all things classic American when it comes to sneaker designs, so it’s no surprise to see a BAPE take on the immortal Converse Chuck Taylor All Star. The BAPE Apesta Check might remind you of some of the recent Woolrich x Converse collaborations, but instead of the buffalo checks that were so common in 2008 & ’09, these go with a subtler plaid pattern that you’ll see on any number of ‘western’ shirts. Check out the entire collection after the jump and check for these at BAPE chapter stores around the globe. via FRESHNESS

Reebok remade the Insta Pump Fury with a flexible, low-profile sole, but here’s another ’90s-era runner that remains untouched. The Reebok Dual Pump Runner is back in two new colorways for Fall 2010 that just scream ‘outdoors!’ The mix of earthy tones with bright contrasts is a good start, and they’re balanced perfectly by color-on-white speckled midsoles. Check out more shots of the brown/green/purple and olive/orange/purple pairs after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for updates on their release. via EUkicks

British sneaker store Size? has updated several classic silhouettes for their 10th anniversary collaborations, and for their latest, they teamed up with an Austrailian magazine and a German shoe company. The Size? x Sneaker Freaker x Puma R698 Reaction Pack gives this Puma staple runner a couple of looks unlike we’ve seen from the German Cat. One pair mixes a bunch of off-white tones with lavendar, black and a gum sole, while the others go the dress shoe route with premium brown leather and brogue detailing. Click the jump below for more high-quality photos, which, in true SNKRFRKR style, only reveal just enough to get you salivating for the August 14th release.

It’s time for another Air Jordan 1 Retro High release, and this time it’s the model we previewed here on Sneaker News back in early April. This new AJ1 is done mostly in black, but the overlay sections are done in a different material than the rest, giving these a tonal look. Add white contrast stitching and bright Blue Sapphire and Cyber yellow accents, and these have the look of a rainbow etching paper or some other spacey reference (and vaguely like the ‘Twin Peaks’ Nike SB Dunk High). No matter how you describe it, this is one of the most unique looks to drop this summer, and as an August 2010 release, they’re available early from JBseller on eBay.
