Sneaker News gave you a look a number of colorways of the upcoming Air Jordan IV Ol’ School IV over the summer, so here’s a detailed look at one of the expected colorways; this white, varsity red, and black colorway features a perforated leather upper with A-shaped panels – somewhat of an Air Jordan VI cue. The jagged midsole is also similar to the Air Jordan VI/VII, with peaks on the outer toe and rear of the shoe. The midsole is made up of a combination of black and speckled ‘cement’ as well as the visible-Air on the heel. The design of the shoe is more 21st century than “old school”, but despite that misnomer, these upcoming non-Legacy Jordans can bag with the new schoolers. Check out the detailed gallery after the jump and expect the Jordan Ol’ School IV to hit Jordan Brand retailers in October. via Dunk.

When presented with smorgasbord of options, it’s hard to decide what goes with what and where it should go. Apparently one Bespoker who managed to snag a Air Force 1 Bespoke reservation over at Nike Harajuku during the 4-day Bespoke Pop-up event zeroed in one option and one option only. Check out this All-Elephant-Print Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke that features an unabashed overindulgence of the signature print; classic grey/black on the toe and heel but colorized versions appear on every customizable panel – even the under-layer of the swoosh!. Definitely an eye-ful of elephant print so check out the images after the jump and let us know what you think about this design.

Do you remember what you got for your 10th birthday? Probably some lame toys that you got bored of within months or a video-game console that became outdated just a year later. Size? is doing it big with little gifts in the form of sneaker collaborations with pretty much every relevant brand you can think of as well a limited edition copy of Size? x Sole Provider, but perhaps the most appropriate is with the Nike Blazer Mid, the OG Nike basketball shoe that predated all of the high-tech jargon we see and hear today. Available now is the orange/white colorway of the Size? x Nike Blazer Mid, one of three colorways of the pack. With just 500 pairs of each colorway available, all three colorways should clear out fast, so don’t sleep on this clean colorway by copping a pair right now from Size?.

Sneaker News recently gave you an in-depth look at the advanced Jordan Melo M7, but here’s a pair of classic that Melo could wear out and about without giving the Nuggets front office fits of anxiety. This new colorway of the Air Jordan 1 Phat Low features a clean mix of black, university blue, taxi yellow, and white; such a simple and well-done colorway gives the Air Jordan 1 Phat Low a revival of sorts – not that the Jordan 1 ever died. The upper is all black synthetic leather with a university blue swoosh and hints of taxi yellow on the Jumpman as well as the inner lining of the tongue. Watch for these at Jordan Brand spots soon and let us know what you think of this colorway – a nice gallery awaits you after the jump. via Dunk.

Nike recently introduced the Nike Lunar Elite Trail Mid QS which featured the running-shoe silhouette transformed into a mid-top trail runner. The Nike ACG Lunar Wood goes the retrograde route – trail to running – by slapping the runner-friendly sole onto the classic Wildwood trailshoe upper to create a mega-comfy hybrid suitable for running on smooth or rough terrain. This new colorway of Black/Volt is similar to the Neon 95 inspired Wildwood that released earlier this year – an unmistakable colorway slapped on one of the best ‘hybrid’ shoes Nike’s created so far. These just released at Titolo in Switzerland but you can expect these at stateside Nike Sportswear retailers soon.

The recently introduced Vans OTW Collection just got sick new addition in the form of a Vans OTW Bedford constructed in two tones of denim. In collaboration with Hawaiian brand In4mation, this Vans OTW Bedford features black denim upper with a lighter shade of material on the center panel and ankle collar. The color red just pops with denim of any shade so that’s the choice of color on the bottom sole, inner lining, and special tongue tag, and the brown ‘dirtied’ midsole adds the perfect touch to the denim motif. Limited to just 300 pairs worldwide, these will be available only at In4mation’s store in Hawaii. Take another look after the jump and let us know what you think of these denim Bedfords. via SF.

The Converse Pro Star’s classic design gets a touch of fluff with the new Converse Pro Star Baby Bear, which features a cuddly inner lining of fleece and a tan/brown colorway representing the classic teddy bear. While these may not be as in-your-face as the Jeremy Scott x adidas Originals Teddy Bear – the darn thing has a teddy bear’s head as the tongue – the Pro Star has the right mix of colors and materials to be part of that group. Yellow branding on the midsole and heel tab along with pink bottom sole finish the color-blocking with a fleece flex cutaway at the achilles. These just released at Flauge so take a detailed look at this curious pair after the jump.

Highs and Lows, one of Australia’s premier sneaker spots based in Perth, just finished up a collaboration with Reebok to celebrate their 5th year as an establishment. Kudos on the colorway choice; the upper colorway is a throwback to their Mt. Lawley storefront colors and the gingham plaid inner liner is a pattern taken from their shop bag. The materials used is a fine mix of rip-stop nylon on the toe, suede on the upper grey panels, leather on ‘Bok logo, and 3M on the heel-tab. Furthermore, Highs and Lows and and the Reebok silhouette of choice has something in common; 6000, the designated figure to the Reebok runner is also the postal code for Perth – so you might say this Highs and Lows x Reebok GL6000 is as close to the heart as you can get. A detailed look at awaits you so check out this commemorative shoe after the jump.

In mid August Sneaker News showed you a clean pair of the Air Force 1 High – no, we’re not talking about the Air Force 1 Foamposite. This white, black, sport red, and metallic gold pair was first spotted overseas and many of our AF1-loving readers came out and praised the simplicity of the colorway – perhaps it was the minute yet poignant touch of gold on the tongue-tag that made these stand out. Featuring a classic black/white ‘tuxedo’-like upper with a red trim, these new AF1 highs were initially believed to be an overseas quickstrike release but just became available on Nikestore. Take another look after the jump and for those who weren’t shy about expressing their love for these, get yourselves a pair now on ebay!

“The Best of Both Worlds” is the tag-line given to the Air Jordan Force Fusion project, and this upcoming AJF IV Black/Laser might represent that statement to the fullest. Featuring the upper of the Air Jordan IV Black/Laser and an Air Force 1 MX sole, the Air Jordan Force Fusion IV in Black/Laser is one of those shoes that turns haters into lovers – there should be no shame in liking a shoe even if you’re the most strict of Jordan purists. If the extra-high Jumpman Flight tongue doesn’t get you, the laser design should be enough for you to want this pair because very rarely do we get to see this laser print in use. These are expected to hit sometime later this year so take another look at the detailed images after the jump and if you weren’t too keen on these before, let us know if your mind’s been changed. via kinstor.

Jordan Brand certainly mixed things up when it played around with the Foamposite-like material and appointed it as the armor of an upcoming Air Jordan 1. Aptly titled the Air Jordan 1 Armor (also the Air Jordan 1 Anondized), this upcoming colorway combines classic Michael Jordan – red, black, and white is as MJ as you can get – with a hardened shell upper. Not quite Foamposite but definitely something like it, the Armored upper would be perfect for plodding around in the inclement weather we normally get in winter – and luckily for us this cranberry colorway is just one of several colorways slated for a release. Take another look at the Air Jordan 1 Armor ‘Cranberry’ after the jump and pre-order a pair now from osneaker.
