Supra Henry Boot   Holiday 2010 Colorways

To this point, Supra has made its name with flamboyant super-hightop designs that paved the way for its audience to open up for a series of classic skate-oriented designs.  With the new Supra Henry, the crown brand makes a major step toward further expansion as their first ever boot.  Somewhere between their Bandit and a traditional 6″ Timberland boot, the Henry features a breathable canvas collar and a light sole affixed with classic Goodyear welt construction.  We’ll see four new pairs for the Holiday 2010 season, including the beautiful brown full-grain leather pictured above, with others in oxblood full-grain, and black and army green TUF.  Check out shots of all four after the jump and be ready when the Supra Henry hits Factory 413 at noon, Friday.

Nike Air Max 90   White   Spice   Obsidian

The Nike Air Max 90 has enjoyed a range of dope colorways in this its 20th anniversary year.  From the high-contrast two-toned looks in the Air Attack Pack to the classic Infrared and Laser Blue colorways, the Ninety never fails to satisfy.  The latest pair has its own sort of classic look, with a trio of colors you might find on a number of varsity jackets.  White, orange and navy make for a Mets/Knicks look, but frankly, these are better than both of those squads.  Take a look at more shots after the jump and look for these at stateside Nike Sportswear retailers soon; they just hit Swiss sneaker spot Titolo.

Nice Kicks x Asics Gel Lyte III Part 2

Last year Asics teamed up with Nice Kicks to create a pair of the Gel Lyte III inspired by the site’s logo. The result was a tonal red upper with hints of white and grey, a stark contrast to Nice Kicks’ second go-around with Asics. Here’s a look at the second collaboration between Asics and the sneaker website; a tonal grey suede upper is paired with a classic white midsole and a grey outsole. The first release was limited to just 250 pairs and this upcoming October 1st release will likely follow suit, so take a second look at the Nice Kicks x Asics Gel Lyte III after the jump and let us know what you think of the colorway.

Nike Zoom Huarache TR Mid   Neutral Grey   Varsity Purple   Varsity Maize

The early Huarache TR Mid colorways are inspired by Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald and his storied football past, and this color-combo is a tribute to Fitzgerald’s days as a Minnesota Vikings ballboy. That’s right; before Larry was catching passes (11 catches for 172 yards in his only trip to MIN, by the way), he was taking notes from Cris Carter and Randy Moss while retrieving loose balls on the sideline. Here’s a look at a new colorway of the Zoom Huarache TR Mid; it features an upper of white leather on the toe, a tumbled leather upper in netural grey with a similarly colored inner boot, a varsity purple swoosh, midsole, and inner liner, and just enough varsity maize on the bottom sole to capture the Minnesota Vikings uniform colorways. We should expect more colorways of the Zoom Huarache TR Mid in the coming months so stick with Sneaker News for more info and pick up the ‘Vikings’ Huarache TR from ID4shoes on eBay.

Nike Summer 2011 Preview

It’s going to be a hot summer, and we’re not talking about the weather. Sneaker News recently gave you a big heads up on what to expect next Summer in terms or Jordan, but the Nike side of things isn’t too shabby. Let’s start with the notables, like the return of the Nike Air Griffey Max II in two colorways – one being the OG – as well as another retro of the Nike Air Trainer Max ’94. The recently confirmed release of the Air Trainer SC II is further solidified with the black/red/white colorway, and we get a look at two more colorways of the Nike Air Max CB 34 as well as a ‘Cool Grey’ Air Max Penny.

Other notables include a Lunar-cushioned version of the Air Max Solas (presumably titled the Lunar Solas) as well as two colorways of the 360 Air and Torch-uppered Air Max Sensation 2011. The recently previewed Nike Air PR1 arrives in a Dunkman-esque colorway as well as a white/gold/black, and we also get a second look at the Nike Air Max JR in the white/chlorine blue colorway. A number of other Nike Running and Nike Sportswear models like the Nike Convention High are set to arrive as well so continue reading for some close-ups of this Nike Summer 2011 Preview and let us know which shoes you’re looking forward to the most, and stay in tune with Sneaker News for more updates regarding these releases.

Air Jordan II (2) Retro   Black   White | New Images

Decisions, decisions: Here’s another look at the Air Jordan II Retro Black/White that is currently scheduled for an October release; the black/white colorway shows a clear connection to the chocolate-and-cream sandwiched cookie with a black nubuck upper and white bottom sole. The mudguard also features a glossy finish above the pebbled material, and the white lace eyelets, Jordan Wings logo on the tongue, piping on the upper, and Jordan branding on the heel complete the black/white contrast perfectly. There are quite a lot of Air Jordan II varieties to choose from next month; which will be yours? Check out the Black/White Jordan II after the jump and let us know which Jordan II colorway you like best, and stick with Sneaker News for all Air Jordan Retro updates and information.

For you sneakerheads with upcoming birthdays, step your cake game up! A trip down to your local ice-cream parlor for a vanilla and chocolate ice-cream cake ain’t gonna cut it because the new “thing” is sneaker cakes.

Celebrity Feet: Tom Hardy   Nike Lunar Air 180 TZ

Up-and-coming movie star Tom Hardy was recently spotted at Vancouver International Airport in Canada this past weekend with his fiance Charlotte Riley. Tom Hardy is best recognized for his role as Eames in the summer blockbuster hit Inception which co-starred Leonardo DiCaprio, who also has a penchant for Nikes and Jordans (he rocked Air Jordan IV Breds back in the day). Hardy didn’t exactly match the heat-level of the Bred IVs but did make an appearance with the noteworthy Nike Air Lunar 180 TZ, the revamped Lunar-cushioned version of the classic Nike Air 180. His role in Inception should do wonders for his career and the increased attention might lead to more celebrity sightings with Nikes! via: Just Jared.

Vashtie Kola x Air Jordan II (2) Retro   Lavender   Deep Purple

October will be an Air Jordan II frenzy now that Air Jordan II Candy Pack and Air Jordan II Black/White has been confirmed, but here’s a second look at yet another Jordan II October release – one that Sneaker News previewed nearly two months ago. This particular release is for the ladies, as it features a lavender nubuck upper with a deep purple trim on a solid metallic silver midsole – a definite feminine design which is no surprise considering the colorway was hand-selected by Vashtie Kola, the New York-based fashion designer, artist, and trendsetter. This girl’s colorway will release at select Jordan Brand retailers on October 2nd, 2010, so check out the detailed images after the jump and let us know what you think of this upcoming girl’s release.

Nike Air Classic BW   Black   Green   White | New Images

Earlier this month Sneaker News gave you a look at two upcoming colorways of the Nike Air Classic BW that had a very ‘original colorway’ mood about them. This Black/Green pair shares similar color-blocking to the most recognizable Persian Violet colorway. This black/green pair features the same black upper with white contrast stripe but the heel is black instead of white (like the OG Persian Violet. Green trim can bout found on the ankle collar padding as well as the midsole trim, while the swoosh is a light grey. Being close enough to the original style should make these a popular choice as these are an October 2010 release, but these just dropped at Titolo in Switzerland; take an extra look at this upcoming release after the jump and let us know what you think of the colorway.
