Plenty of Jordan Brand’s apparel and accessories feature depictions of the Air Jordan Legacy either in whole or partially, but few have offered this level of detail. The Jordan Sublimated Tee is like looking at the shoe that started it all under a microscope. You get a sense for the fine grain of leather used on the Air Jordan 1′s white/red/black OG colorway, with a Jumpman dog tag reminding us of the days before sneaker keychains were available in mass production. Have a closer look by clicking the jump below and let us know how these rank against your favorite Jordan Brand tee shirts. via Gallery2

If last year’s big Air Jordan retro release was any indication, 2010 will forever be remembered as the year of ‘Cool Grey’. We’ve seen countless accessories and apparel items set to coordinate with the upcoming Air Jordan XI release, and here’s a similarly hewn effort from one of Nike/JB’s main rivals. The Reebok Zig Slash is pictured above in a mix of greys and white that while similar to the CG Elevens, certainly has its own look and feel thanks to the tessellated rear sections and that unmistakable Zig Tech sole. Check out more shots by clicking the jump below and grab a pair today from FinishLine.

Here’s a brand new Nike Air Max 90 for kids that has a bit of Kidrobot feel about it. Utilizing the same gold and pink accents that characterized that 2005 collaboration and very much resembling the black pair of Kid Robot Air Max 1s, the latest AM90 adds a spotted pattern on the ankle collar along with a patent leather mudguard to further differentiate this drop. Metallic gold is nothing new from Nike Sportswear, but the steely pink shade that appears on this pair’s laces is quite impressive and hopefully a sign of things to come from some other colored laces. Have a closer look by clicking the jump below and grab a pair today from SneakersNStuff.

“So many paths to choose from. The outcomes for each are uncertain. Decide on a path and keep moving.” Sage wisdom, that, especially coming from a sneaker! Rarely have kicks been as insightful as the upcoming WTAPS x Vans Syndicate Sk8-Mids, who feature the quote above on their side panel stripes. That’s one of the ways WTAPS has made these two-toned colorups stand out beyond their potential on paper, with spiderweb graphics adding to the unique feel. Check out new shots of navy blue and black suede/canvas designs after the jump and look for these to hit select retailers soon. via ST

Nike N7 is more than just a signature colorway. It’s a collection designed “to promote active and healthy lifestyles . . . [in] Native American and Aboriginal communities in the USA and Canada,” and these latest releases are geared toward the single most basic athletic activity: running. Here are four new Nike N7 running shoes, the LunarSwift for both men and boys in black and another pair in grey, plus a LunarGlide in grey just for ladies. And while we mentioned above that N7 is more than just a palette, it sure doesn’t hurt that the combination of Cayman blue and Challenge Red common to all four pairs is one of the more aesthetically pleasing mixes in recent memory. Have a look at all four pairs when you click the jump below and grab one or more pairs today from NikeStore.

Think you’ve got what it takes to design a colorway of the Reebok Zig Slash for John Wall? Reebok just launched the ‘Customize John Wall’s Kicks’ contest where participants can pick out a color combination for John Wall to wear during the 2011 NBA All-Star weekend. Wall’s a lock for the Rookie Game, and with a current stat line of 18 points, 10 assists, and over 3 steals a game, being placed on the Eastern Conference All-Star team is a possibility. The individual behind the winning design will receive a grand prize of a trip to the NBA All-Star weekend to see Wall wear the kicks, with more great prizes for the other Top 10 finalists. Got what it takes? Hit up Reebok and let us know what design you have in mind.

Considering how sweet the ‘South Beach’ LeBron 8 looks, sneakerheads are sure to have a treat in store when the annual ‘Dunkman’ colorway hits retailers. That’s still several months off with not a single teaser image in sight, but a dope Nike Basketball sneaker has just released with a similarly ‘nucular’ colorup. The Nike Hyperdunk 2010 is pictured above in a colorway that echoes its place as both futuristic and the key Nike BB shoe in 2K10, a Volt-accented palette largely crafted in shades of grey and black. These joints look like radioactive bullets and whether you’re using them to fire down the lane or drop bombs from downtown, you can grab yours today from 95soleman on eBay.

A big handful of great NBA games wrapped up last night and once again, the NBA pros wowed us with their on-court sneaker selections. Starting it off was Syracuse alumni Hakim Warrick an the Nike Air 1/2 Cent ‘Eggplant’ against Dwyane Wade’s Air Jordan 2010 and LeBron’s China joints. Gilbert Arenas continued his sneaker rotation by splitting time between the Air Jordan XI Space Jam and the Nike Air 3 LE (formerly the Garnetts). Teammate Andray Blatche wore the Nike Zoom Kobe V in a Wizards-personalized colorway, while Ronny Turiaf of the Knicks wore his own rendition of the Kobe V. Juwan Howard of the heat wore a white/red pair of the Jumpman Pro Strong, while big-man Antonio McDyess of the Spurs wore the Air Jordan One6One7. Tyreke Evans, who recently shunned the Nike Hyperdunk 2010 for its lack of ankle support, opted for the cushier Air Max Hyperdunk 2010. Check out the entire gallery of last night’s kicks and let us know who takes the crown from yesterday night’s games. via Yahoo!/ESPN.

Late last night Sneaker News hooked you up with a teaser of the upcoming Air Jordan V Premio, and what was revealed was a flat-black leather upper with the Bin 23 stamp on the heel. These new teaser images reveal just a bit more; the translucent netting, the trademark feature of the Air Jordan V, has been removed for a leather construction, and a peek at the midsole reveals the concrete finish on the “shark’s teeth” as well as a translucent bottom sole. A black leather Air Jordan V for men has never been done, although they were released in black with red shark’s teeth for kids, so while the colorway itself isn’t brand new, it’s most definitely a fresh take on the Air Jordan V for mens. Check out the detailed images after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for more Jordan Brand Bin 23 Collection information.

This new Nike Hyperdunk 2010 is also part of the N7 Collection, featuring a colorway of black, white, challenge red, and cayman; it just became available on Nikestore so take a look at the extra images below and let us know what you think of the colorway.
