Air Jordan XIII (13) Premio   Bin 23 Collection | U.S. Release Reminder

Arriving tomorrow at U.S. retailers is the third installment of the individually-numbered and highly limited Jordan Brand Bin 23 Collection, the Air Jordan XIII (13) Premio. The color-scheme chosen for the Premio XIII is actually an older concept, dating back to the inception of the Air Jordan XIII; this combination of colors served as the inspiration to other Air Jordan XIII colorways, like the Wheat Retro of 2005 as well as the original Black/Chutney low. The colorway of Team Red and Desert Clay has been taken out of the vault and used fittingly for the Bin 23 Collection, and tomorrow the opportunity arrives for stateside Jordan loyalists. Take a look at the images after the jump and check in with your local spot because the release of this shoe will be reserved for select Jordan Brand accounts or get your pair now on eBay.

Color: Team Red/Desert Clay-White

Air Jordan VII (7) Retro   2011 Look See Sample | Available on eBay

A Jumpman-less Air Jordan? We’re not talking about the Air Jordan 1 or II, but the Sneaker News Exclusive Air Jordan VII (7) Look-See Sample that was reported last July. This peculiar shoe is surely the Air Jordan VII, but features absolutely no branding on the upper whatsoever; the tongue is blank slate and the upper ankle – the concrete spot for the slightly tilted Jumpman – is out of sight – but Jumpmen can be spotted on the insole as well as the bottom sole. Even the red/yellow/green combination of colors seems a bit odd, but that trio of tones will be featured in the upcoming Air Jordan II Candy Pack, but that’s another story.

Not much has been confirmed regarding this Look-See Sample, but Sneaker News did catch Gentry Humphrey wearing a pair during the Air Jordan x Atmos Pop-Up Store Launch. Wanna be like Gentry Humphrey? The Air Jordan VII Look-See sample just popped up on eBay so now is your chance to own a pair of this odd sample. Take a look at the detailed photos after the jump and test your luck by checking out this auction from fatboykickz on eBay.

Gourmet The 26   Fall/Winter 2010 Colorways

If you’re wondering why a shoe called Gourmet the 20-something would be so familiar, it’s because we did just see one on Sunday.  That lowtop is dubbed The 26, and while their names would lead you to believe the above-pictured kicks are just the hightop version, that’d be missing out on the unique design that is Gourmet’s The 25.  More accurately a hightop with a very distinct ankle collar cut, The 26 is very much its own design.  New pairs in tonal black or white will hit retailers soon, so check out more shots by clicking the jump below and stick with Sneaker News for updates.  via Dunk

Nike Air Ratna Boot   Black   White

If you remember the Nike Air Chukka Boot Sample that was featured in mid-July on Sneaker News, then this newly released high boot should look familiar. Take a look at the Nike Air Ratna High Boot in Black and Brown, featuring a similar design as the Chukka sample. In fact, Sneaker News just showed you the mid version, the Nike Air Ratna Mid, but the High clearly features a bit more flair, with the perforated leather panels, army-boot style ankle, two-toned colorway, and the form-fitting cut shown by the pinch at the ankle. The Ratna High also features the in-step strap with the heel cup and the same midsole as the Ratna Mid. With Euro-styling clearly involved, the Nike Air Ratna High Boot just dropped at select European retailers, so continue reading for some more images and let us know what you think.

Nike 6.0 Brazen   Dark Cinder   Black   Spice

You couldn’t pick a better name for this shoe than Nike 6.0 Brazen.  The Brazen from Nike Six combines elements from your classic plimsolls and chukkas in a form suitable for those bold enough to skate, ride BMX or whatever else floats your ‘action sports’ boat.  The newest release is done in a colorway that’s just perfect for fall, mixing brown suede on the forefoot and side panels with hits of black, orange and purple on the rear sections.  A shoe with the style and performance you need, this new Dark Cinder Brazen is available now at select Nike 6.0 retailers or get your pair on ID4shoes on Bay.

Air Jordan II (2) Retro   Candy Pack | New Images

Earlier this month Sneaker News reported the upcoming release of the trio of Air Jordan II (2) Retros dubbed the ‘Candy Pack’ for its vibrant gumdrop tonal colorways. Here’s an updated look at this scheduled October 30th release; each pair of the Candy Pack features a tonal upper – red, yellow, or green – with a black midsole and a white bottom sole. The red pair? Bulls. The yellow? Lightning, as in the Air Jordan IV (4) Lightning. The green? Ray Allen PE? The reasoning behind each colorway can be discussed to tedium but what we do know is that this release definitely caught everyone by surprise and should be a sure-fire hit once these drop. Take a look at these new images of the Air Jordan II Candy Pack (or maybe the ‘Streetlight Pack’ or ‘Rasta Pack’) and let us know which colorway gets you in a sugar-rush-like Air Jordan frenzy. via HB.

Converse Black Flag CVO Low + Mid

The casual-friendly Converse CVO is arriving in two great colorways – one for each cut.

Continue reading for an extra look and expect these to hit Converse Black Flag accounts soon. via CT.

Nike Air Presto LE   Black + Varsity Red + Varsity Royal

Last year Nike re-released the Nike Presto and its shirt-size designation in a number of tonal colorways and arriving once again a year later is the Nike Air Presto in three more options. The Black colorway is a repeat of last year while the Varsity Red is a newcomer (last year’s was ‘Deep Red’) as is the Varsity royal. The sock-like appeal of the shoe made the Presto a hit and the release of these three colorways in addition to the plethora of 2010 Presto releases is a nice touch. Check out the three new colorways after the jump and grab one set on Eastbay.

New Balance WRC574B   Fall 2010 Colorways

The New Balance 574 is so popular that it was recently crafted in the very cardboard it came in for Jurjen Semeijn’s ‘Out of the Box’ series, and while NB has done everything from a vulc-soled lifestyle midtop to a hiking boot with its silhouette, we’ve never seen a 574 quite like this.  The WRC574B might remind you of the Converse Star Player we saw yesterday, with both pairs offering a ribbed sock peeking up around the ankle.  You can actually remove the WRC574B’s sock, but the best part might very well be the wacky colorways, which you can see in their entirety after the jump.  Check em out, then work on your overseas connects cos the only place these are available as of today is Japan’s Flauge.

Nike Air Max Modular 95 SI   Neutral Grey   Volt   Medium Grey | Available

Some of you may cringe at the thought of “Air Max Hybrid” but the Air Max Modular 95 SI double dips between the Air Max 95 and Air Classic BW perfectly. Featuring the classing grey/neon colorway with an Air Classic BW silhouette, the Air Max Modular 95 SI blends perfectly to produce a true cross-hybridized shoe (i.e. not a mere sole-swap). The modified Max Air cushioning unit, tongue, heel, and colorway are all 95 but sloping panels of the upper are all taken by its BW partner. These just dropped at Purchaze so take another look at these new kicks after the jump and don’t miss out on a pair.

Style: 407976-001
Color: Neutral Grey/Volt-Stealth-Dark Grey
