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.

Jordan Brand has been giving extra attention to crafting quality kicks for ladies in recent months, and while these are technically a classic pink-and-shrink, there’s no discounting the execution. This brand new Air Jordan XIII GS has a vague Un-Grey Toe look to it, thanks to white ‘golf ball’ panels and grey on the rear mudguard/heel and midsole instead of the toe. Select pink accents are limited to the tongue tags and outsoles, which makes these supremely versatile, and probably makes plenty of male sneakerheads jealous considering the vast array of more masculine colors that could take their place. And while these are definitely just for girls, anyone can click the jump below to see more up-close photos. via Taobao
