Nike Zoom Hyperfuse XDR   Black   Volt

If there’s ever another collection like the Nike Air Attack Pack that’s focused on Zoom Air cushioning instead of Max, here’s a sneaker that’d be a shoo-in.  The Nike Zoom Hyperfuse XDR pictured above certainly has a bit of that Air Attack feel with its black upper giving way to neon accents from the underlay and sole.  The former exposes the Zoom Hyperfuse’s multi-layer construction, while the latter is enhanced by a subtle tonal variation on the honeycomb textured midsoles.  Check out more shots of these glow-in-the-light Hyperfuses and stick with Sneaker News for word on their release date.  via Dunk

Nike Air More Uptempo   Black   White | December 2010

The 90′s were all about Air Jordans but another shoe that shares an equal amount of historic significance is the other AIR shoe – the Nike Air More Uptempo. With the oversized graffiti-like A-I-R upper, the design of Air More Uptempo and the full-length Air is hard to forget, and there’s no doubt these will be easily recognized by anyone who considered themselves a fan of 90′s basketball. This December, we’ll get another shot at copping a fresh pair of the Air More Uptempo in the original black/white colorway as it hits retail stores with a $160 price-tag, so take another look at Scottie Pippen’s classics after the jump and let us know if you’ll make room for these on your Christmas list.

Nike ACG Air Umara   Holiday 2010

Arriving this Holiday 2010 Season is the Nike ACG Air Umara, a mid-top version of the classic Nike Air Terra Humara mixed with the Nike ACG Air Humara from the 90′s. The upper design and Air Unit enclosure are both taken from the original designs but the Air Umara combines both to create an all-new shoe – a definite hit for ACG fans. It’s already been a big year for Nike ACG due to the implementation of Lunar cushioning but the Umara should strike a few notes for a those who prefer the older styling – which the Air Umara clearly has. Take an extra look after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for more information. via HS.

Nike Air 180   White   Moss Green   Photo Blue

It’s always the colorways with ‘original’ styling that gets a lot of attention, and this new colorway of the Nike Air 180 deserves it, does it not? Arriving in Metallic Summit White, Moss Green, and Photo Blue, this new Air 180 features an pure white upper with a photo blue inner lining with moss green on the swoosh and heel-cup of this Air 180. The 180-degree Air Unit features a gum-blue color with a photo blue Air Unit housing. It’s true that many of these great colorways don’t even make it to the states – Air Max is the heavy hitter overseas (particularly in Europe) – but let’s cross our fingers and hope these arrive on our side. Take a look at the detailed shots after the jump and let us know what you think of this new colorway. via Dunk.

Air Jordan 2010   25th Anniversary | Detailed Images

Here’s another look at the Air Jordan 2010 25th Anniversary, allegedly the final installment of the Air Jordan 25th Anniversary Collection. It does make perfect sense that it will cease after the 25th Air Jordan shoe but it’s hard to argue against all-white or metallic-silver infused colorways of other classic Air Jordan models, but we’re glad there’s less to think about when it comes to deciding what pairs to buy in the future. The Air Jordan 2010 25th Anniversary has already been called the best colorway of the Air Jordan XXV to date due to the lustrous silver upper and once these drop, it’ll surely have Jordan-heads clamoring for more 25th Anniversary colorways. We’re going to have to wait until November to get these on our hands, so take a look at these new images of the Air Jordan 2010 and let us know what other Air Jordans you’d like to see in this colorway. via kickz-lab.

Nike Air Foamposite Pearl Cough Drop Custom by Osneaker

Jason Negron’s swapped sole customs have given new life to old colorways in the Nike Air Foamposite and Air Half Cent series, and now we’ve got some more heavy hitters joining in the sole swapping game.  Masters of the months-early-release, Osneaker has matched the sole of this summer’s Air Foamposite One with the most recent Foamposite Pro drop.  With that in mind, the name ‘Pearl Cough Drops’ should tell the whole story, but even though you know exactly what to expect, these are still a sight to behold.  This year’s Pearls were slightly more champagne-leaning than 2009′s, and here’s one vote for these as the best Pearl Foamposite Ones yet, with the Cough Drops’ sole perfectly matching the Pearls’ red accents.  check out more shots after the jump and let us know which is your favorite, and if you like what you see, this is a 1 of 1 and it’s only available in US men’s size 9 from Osneaker.  Thanks Damian!

Jeremy Scott x adidas Originals JS Wings   Clear

Jeremy Scott is a master of outlandish colorways, but his most recent adidas Originals JS Wings drops have been somewhat subdued.  The JS Wings 2 has seen white/black and elegant marble colorways, and the OG Wings just hit in full-3M, but this pair of JS Wings is the plainest of them all, in a way.  Shades of the Invisible Woman Nike Air Force 1s, Espo x Air Force IIs and countless bootlegs, these transparent JS Wings might be the best manifestation of this shoe’s winged theme yet.  Airy and cloudlike with white accents, you’ll have a little time to stock up on white socks before these hit select adidas Originals retailers.  via SF

LIVESTRONG x Nike Blazer Mid Supreme @ 21 Mercer

Lance Armstrong has likely seen his last Tour de France action, but that shouldn’t stop the LIVESTRONG collaborations.  The Lance Armstrong Foundation-benefiting kicks have made up one of the biggest running capsules these last couple years, but one of the summer’s biggest black-n-yellow drops only hit overseas retailers.  That is until Saturday, when the LIVESTRONG x Nike Blazer Mid Supreme LAF will become available for the first time in America at Nike Sportswear’s flagship store at 21 Mercer Street in New York.  These joints are done in all-black buttery smooth leather with select yellow accents, plus the jersey-rainbow embroidery that also marked a similarly constructed Dunk High.  Check out more shots after the jump and get in line to grab yours early on Saturday, October 2nd.

Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke by Show Ideez

New color and material options debuted for the Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke back in early August and we saw one pair utilized the newly available cork while Bespokes were available at Nike Harajuku for a short span, about a month later.  With their red laces, they’re similar to this new pair of AF1 Bespokes designed by ‘Show Ideez’.  A birthday gift for Ideez’ special lady, these joints are all cork on the upper with a red Swoosh underlay, laces, contrast stitching and other accents.  These achieve a classy feel with their unbranded heeltabs and tongue tags, and they’re finished off by dubraes etched with their creator’s nickname.  Check out more shots after the jump and head to 21 Mercer St. in NYC to make your own.

Nike Blazer High   White   Black   Varsity Red

The Nike Blazer High is a classic basketball silhouette whose design has influenced countless offspring.  Combining the Blazer with a beloved colorway is a recipe for instant success, and that’s what we’ve got with the above pictured release.  These Blazer Highs go with a Chicago ‘home’ colorway, adding black and red accents to an all-white base.  And the white isn’t just ‘blank’ either, with this pair adding micro-perforations to the entire white leather upper.  Check out more shots of these simply styled Blazers after the jump and grab yours today from 95Soleman on eBay.
