We left you on a cliffhanger when we showed you the last Dominate Another Day mission – did Agent D3 escape the Zen Master’s Lair? After getting in contact with Specialist H and with just seconds left before being minced into pieces by a slow-moving, metal piercing laser, Agent D3 dodged another bullet as he managed to elude the grasp of the Zen Master’s torture chamber and an army of minions before escaping, leaving the fiery explosion. It looks like Agent D3 will arrive to practice just in time before tomorrow’s much-anticipated showdown with the Snake Charmer: Will tomorrow be Agent D3′s Day to Dominate. Check out the video after the jump as well as another teaser look at the Air Jordan 2011 and stay tuned to Sneaker News for more updates on Agent D3′s mission.

During Memphis’ showdown with Georgetown yesterday at the FedExForum, Memphis players Will Barton and Joe Jackson as well as Georgetown’s Chris Wright, Jason Clark, and Austin Freeman wore the freshly released Air Jordan XI ‘Cool Grey’ during the game. The Cool Greys, which released earlier that day, were clearly a popular choice among the players as members of opposite teams dressed in unison (at least on their feet). Other notable sneakers of that game included Henry Sims’ Air Jordan XVI.5, Nate Lubick’s Air Jordan XII ‘Taxi’, and Tarik Black’s Air Jordan XIII ‘Flint’. Check out all the heat from last night’s game after the jump and let us know which team won the sneaker battle! via AP.

We saw Skullcandy at the center of a sick Air Jordan IX FTLOTG Retro this summer, and with all apologies to that excellent effort, if you were going to make an over-the-ear headsphone into a sneaker collaboration, it really *should* be with the crown brand. Sony applied the look of their new Piiq series of supra-aural cans (which you may have seen advertised here at the top of Sneaker News) with the Supra Skytop II, using Supra’s rugged TUF material to echo the Piiq’s durable, impact resistant construction. Will these release to retail or be crazy-limited like the Sony x Nike collabos we’ve seen? Check out more shots after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for updates on the Complex-curated Sony Piiq x Supra Skytop II.

First popping up on Sneaker News a few weeks back, today we get our first look at a real pair of Air Jordan F2Fs. These photos reveal a slightly different result than the scanned first image, but the overall feel and Air Jordan XIV nod remain intact. What previously appeared to be a translucent section of outsole still has some translucency, but it’s actually an opaque Stealth grey on the sides and the clear part sticks to the middle where it reveals a forefoot Zoom Air cushion. Will these perform as well as the ‘Last Shot’ sneaker that inspired them? Be sure to stick with Sneaker News for more on the Jordan F2F release date and click below to see more angles right now. via chapter-ex.

The Nike Vault is a basketball-specific and Kobe-centric shop located inside The Staples Center, the home of the Los Angeles Lakers. To gear up for the official release of the Nike Zoom Kobe VI, the Nike Vault has set up a snake tank display housing various colorways of the slithery Nike Zoom Kobe VI in its natural habitat – a jungle-like setting for the Black Mamba to furtively maneuver around its prey and quickly strike without a hint of a warning. Will LeBron James be the Black Mamba’s latest victim? Kobe Bryant will debut the Nike Zoom Kobe VI ‘Grinch’ tomorrow against the Christmas Day match-up against the Miami Heat, and you can see this gorgeous display beginning on Christmas Day by visiting the Nike Vault @ The Staples Center. For a closer look, check out the detailed gallery below.

The Nike Zoom Kobe series has come to give us a few ‘standard’ colorways throughout the years. Aside from obvious Lakers models, you can always expect an All-Star colorup, a Chicago-style look, one in baby blue for the MPLS Lakers, and in recent years both Chaos and Finals special editions. Could the ‘Glass Blue’ accented palette on this new Nike Zoom Kobe VI join that select list and become an annual occurrence? When you see how great they look with an average pair of blue jeans, the answer probably should be ‘yes’. The dude in these pics is clearly a sneakerhead as judged by his black Air Penny II retros, and we’re glad he took the time to snap a few shots to give us an early look at what’s gotta be one of the most wardrobe friendly Zoom Kobe sneakers yet. Check out more after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for the Glass Blue Zoom Kobe 6 release date; looks like they’re already out in China. via HoopChina

For some, the Air Jordan XI ‘Cool Grey’ was an easy cop. Hit up Nikestore, Foot Locker, or any other major chain retailer at midnight with lightning-quick credit card skills or have your pairs on lock at your local spot, or wait a couple of hours on a massive yet controlled line, and you probably ended up with a pair. However, in some places, the excitement escalated and the release got out of hand, like at Deerbrook Mall in Humble, TX. Although no doors were torn down (like last year’s Air Jordan XI Space Jam Release), a lack of order meant police intervention, innocent people getting trampled or pushed down stairs, and a handful of people missing out on the biggest, most hyped release of the year. Check out the news video from the ABC News (courtesy of MN) of the area and let us know how bad (or easy) the release was in your area, and if you haven’t picked up a pair just yet, grab one now on eBay.

Throw those Uggs back into the closet ladies, because for Spring 2011, some new Air Max 1s are begging you to make some room in the rotation. All three colorways have a Spring-time hint of light pastel colors of Filament Green, Glacier Blue, and Lemon Frost, with synthetic suede uppers and mesh toe-boxes for the classic Air Max 1 appeal. All three brand-new colorways are available now at Nikestore so maybe it might be a bit early to ditch the Ugg-warmth, so take a detailed look at all three colorways in the meantime and let us know which of the three you like best.
Style: 319986-300
Color: Filament Green/Lemon Frost
Style: 319986-401
Color: Glacier Blue/Sail

Color: Deep Burgundy/Filament Green

Air Jordan 1 Phat Low ‘Vamps’? These share quite a resemblance to the SB Dunk Low colorway from 2003 but of course we know that the black-and-red Air Jordan outdates the Nike SB Dunk (then again, one could argue that the Nike Dunk outdates the Air Jordan). Moving along, this new colorway of the Air Jordan 1 Phat low features the aboriginal Air Jordan colorway with a translucent outsole and a stealth grey inner lining and ’23′ on the tongue. The patent leather red swoosh as well as the contrast stitching on the midsole as well as on the Wings logo on the heel provides even more ‘umph’. Take a detailed look after the jump and expect these to hit Jordan Brand retailers soon. via Dunk.

Just because most people have all but wrapped up gift buying and the ‘Cool Grey’ Air Jordan XI Retro is sold out everywhere, doesn’t mean holiday spending has ended. If you’re lucky enough to read this in time, you’ll find that for the first time ever, both the Nike Air Force 1 High + Low are available on NIKEiD. The colors and materials from which you can choose have been inspired by b-ball teams from around the AF1′s 1982 debut, and for the first time on iD, you can add the signature ‘AIR FORCE 1′ script to a clear outsole. Head over to Nike iD then click ‘view all’ to get started on yours now before the super-limited 350 pair run is gone!
