Kevin Durant has expressed interest in spreading out his kicks throughout the league. While the shoe is adorned with his name and personal details, the Zoom KD III is really a shoe for everyone, and with these new TB (Team Bank) colorways, it’ll be a lot easier for players around the league to wear them. These four new colorways feature pure white bases with secondary colorways of varsity red, varsity royal, varsity green, and black, and we foresee the Zoom KD III to be popular leaguewide – just like its predecessor was. Take a look at the new colorways after the jump and expect these to release very soon.

This latest pack from Reebok combines football team logo and uniform colors with a classic basketball sneaker, but the irony is far from over there. Not all that long after Nike signed on to replace RBK as the NFL’s official outfitter starting in 2010 is our first look at the Reebok Pump Omni Lite Pro ‘NFL Pack’. The chuckle-inducing timing continues when you notice that both the New York Giants and Oakland Raiders are on the outside of the playoff picture looking in. Close to a last gasp on many levels, the kicks themselves are pretty solid with mostly patent leather construction and white contrasts, and they’ll hit retailers along with matching hats early next year. via Provider

Sneaker News gave you an exclusive first look at this colorway back in August, and although the color scheme of black, volt, and dark grey has been recycled countless times, it seems to never get old. The serious tone of black matched with the electricity of volt offers the perfect sports-culture colorway and looks especially tough on the Zoom Huarache TR Mid. The upper features a black shell with a dark grey inner Torch-lined bootie, with volt green on the inner lining. The midsole is comprised of the trio of colorways – dark grey on the heel, volt on the forefoot, and black on the midsole chassis. Check out the new detailed shots and grab a pair now on Nikestore.

Outside America, a few countries are known as international sneakerhead hot spots and Australia is near the top of that list. Aussie-published Sneaker Freaker is among the global leaders in kicks-on-print and their fellow countrymen at Perth’s Highs & Lows created a pack of New Balance runners that’s every bit as beautiful and under the radar as the SNKRFRKR magazine. The Highs and Lows x New Balance ‘Night and Day’ pack will grace the cover of SF issue 20 with its sunny side, a suede study in blue tones that reminds you of a pleasant afternoon. The Night model is built for “the uncertainty of evening” with a darker and more rugged construction that adds reflective 3M hits and a hint of speckle on its midsole to reflect the night sky. Check out more shots after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for more on this April 2011 release.

With some big-time NBA plans in schedule for Christmas Day, Nike has rolled out the red carpet for its three marquee endorsees and their respective signature shoes in a special Christmas Day Collection called “Signal Your Color”. Each colorway is designated a special tag-line with the primary message being that of forward progress; the Nike LeBron 8 V.2 features a vibrant “Run on Red” colorway with green laces and a speckled midsole, the Nike Zoom KD III utilizes a “No Yield For Yellow” package with a tonal yellow upper with hints of OKC blue and orange, and the Nike Zoom Kobe VI boasts a “Green Means Go” colorway that embodies Kobe Bryant’s continual push for greatness. All three special colorways will be on display this Christmas during the Miami Heat/Los Angeles Lakers match-up as well as during the Oklahoma City Thunder’s showdown with the Denver Nuggets, and will be available for purchase on the following day. Continue reading for a detailed look at all three colorways and let us know which of three is your favorite.

Sure, there have been plenty of hybrids and an AJF model bearing its signature tongue, lacelock and sharkstooth midsole, but other than last year’s Raging Bull package, we haven’t seen new Air Jordan V Retro colorways since 2007. That set of releases included memorable colorways like the ‘Grapes’ and ‘Green Beans’; could lady sneakerheads come to hold the name ‘Alarming Red’ in such high regard? That’s the intense pink shade you see on the sockliner and midsole, one that could make the AJV GS one of the more satisfying shrink-n-pink releases in recent memory. These will drop some time next year, so do you plan to grab a pair? And is the design solid enough that some guys might even try to cram their feet into these? via MN/Da Closet Collector

2009′s Nike Air Griffey Max 1 retro in Varsity Royal and Volt was an instant sellout, a look popular enough to spawn a GS-sized run that should hit Nike Sportswear accounts soon after the new year. The above pictured pair of AGM1s isn’t 100% a GS model, but you’d have to at least lean that way with its high contrast pink/black/white colorup. Just think of all the girls in pink Boston Red Sox gear who could fit this into their baseball costumes! They’d probably be a big hit with the ladies even if they were your typical mens release, so have a closer look after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for updates. via Taobao

Dwyane Wade is Jordan Brand‘s premier endorsee, the guy who wears the Air Jordan flagship model as Michael’s own heir apparent. So when D-Wade showed up in practice and even a game this season rocking the Air Jordan Evolution ’85, some were wondering why he’d be wearing anything other than a Legacy model or perhaps his own upcoming signature. But actually the Evolution ’85 is intended to show what the Air Jordan 1 might look like were it crafted today, so it’s on equal footing (if not slightly more stable thanks to the forefoot strap) with the AJ Alpha 1. Jordan Brand crafted a Evolution 85 minisite so you can see how the AJ1 has evolved over the years. Click and drag your way thru history and let us know: are the Alpha 1 and Evolution ’85s more of a good thing or should the Air Jordan 1 remain untouched?

Earlier today we gave you a heads up on the NBA Feet highlight of yesterday night’s game, with the the top spot going to Gilbert Arenas and the Nubuck XII. Here’s a look at more NBA Feet around the league; the red-hot Mavericks cooled down the Heat by beating Wade, LeBron, and Co. down in Miami. LeBron James wore the LeBron 8 ‘Home’ while Wade wore his white/yellow/red Air Jordan 2010 PE. Charlotte faced off against the suddenly improved Wizards, with Tyrus Thomas wearing the Flint XIII, Stephen Jackson wearing the AJ Take Flight, and Nick Young wearing Kobe V iDs. Others included Daniel Gibson’s Soldier IVs, Chris Paul’s Orion Blue-toe CP3.IV, Courtney Lee’s LeBron 8, and back-from-injury Aaron Brooks in the Zoom Go Low. Check out the rest of the kicks after the jump and stay tuned to Sneaker News for more NBA Feet coverage! via ESPN.

Joe Budden(s?) bragged “they still call me Dirk in Dallas” eight years ago and only once during that span has the Marvericks’ big man averaged less than 25 PPG. And you can’t fault Dirk Nowitzki for a 24.6 point average in his 2006-07 MVP campaign, but you know that year’s first round playoff loss to Golden State still haunts him. But the Mavs might be poised for a deep playoff run with the NBA’s second best record and while their leader Dirk definitely deserves a signature, he like much of the league has chosen to ball in a Nike Hyperdunk 2010 PE. These joints are blocked similarly to his Germany WBF PE, which was an elegant sleeper hit that served to foreshadow the array of home PEs we’d see this year. This Dirk Nowitzki Hyperdunk 2010 PE is available now at both North Park Center and Town East Mall in Mesquite, plus each of the other twenty House of Hoops locations nationwide.
