Nike Air Max 90 ACG – Velvet Brown – Circuit Orange | Available on eBay

“Mowabb-inspired ACG release” might sound a bit redundant, but that’s an accurate description of this latest men’s Nike Air Max 90 from the Air Max ACG Pack. The other day Sneaker News gave you a heads up on this Velvet Brown and Circuit Orange colorway, and we were quick to notice the resemblance to the classic color-combination of tan, brown, orange, and purple that made the Mowabb line so popular. Reader responses of “Must have” and “Pure fire” confirmed that these were indeed great, and another comment reading “I would def kill for these” confirmed that some of our readers need to take a chill pill. But in all seriousness, these are one of the best 90s we’ve seen in a while, so take another look after the jump and pick up a pair from id4shoes on eBay.

Nike WMNS Air Max 1 – Retro – Sport Red | Available

It’s still Winter, but you can do your best to summon the mighty powers of the Summer season with this new colorway of the Nike Air Max 1 for the ladies. Sneaker News previewed this colorway back in November and gave you a heads up on a pre-order not long after that, so if you missed out on that, this Retro and Sport Red colorway just hit stores. Synthetic suede on the upper with a mesh toe-box is an Air Max nut’s dream, and it being a WMNS release has never stopped the male folks from doing some quick elementary school math and going 1.5 up. Switzerland’s Titolo has these available now so you can expect these at your Nike Sportswear retailer soon if they haven’t gotten them in yet, but you can also swipe a crisp pair on eBay.

Nike Zoom Hyperfuse Low   All Star 2011 East + West PEs

Prepare for a big debut of the Nike Hyperfuse Low during the upcoming 2011 NBA All-Star Weekend at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. Each pair features an embossed ‘LA’ on the heel with each unique colorway adopting some LA-specific motif. The silver and royal blue pairs feature the All-Star logo on the heel, while both the black/red and teal features the 3-D graphic on the inner lining much like the Zoom Kobe VI ‘Hollywood’. Another duo of red/orange and teal/orange features a translucent ‘ice’ sole that you might not have seen on a Hyperfuse before. Continue reading for a complete gallery of the Nike Zoom Hyperfuse Low All-Star 2011 PEs after the jump and let us know what you think! via aaronknows/kenlu.

adidas ZX500 – Black – Fresh Blue – White Vapour

The adidas ZX series is one of those unbreakable blocks that build up the sneaker-freak foundation, and like other classic runners from other brands like the Nike Air Max 1, Asics Gel Lyte III, Saucony Shadow, and so on, the adidas ZX will continue to live on so long as new and fresh colorways make its way to the public. Take for example this new release of the adidas ZX500 in a black, blue, and white colorway; we’ve seen this combination before but the tonal black upper paird with the blue tongue, inner lining, and heel cup emphasizes the simplistic nature of the ZX500 while the textured upper adds some nice flair. Schuh-You has these available now so take a look after the jump and head there to cop a pair.

adidas Originals Nizza Lo XL – Pink – Purple

More proof that adidas may have grown tired of post-recession tonality: this new adidas Originals Nizza Lo XL.  These are the ankle-cut answer to the Nizza Hi XL we showed you earlier, their canvas uppers utilizing strong contrasts including leather Stripes and the oversized branding that has become a major theme from Three Stripes this season.  It probably depends on the garments you plan to match these with, but is this lowtop Nizza greater or less than its hightop counterpart?  Click through to get a better look and stick with Sneaker News for word on their US release.  via Dunk

adidas Skateboarding Ronan – Black – Red – White

Previewed as a part of the adidas Skateboarding spring 2011 lineup, here’s a closer look at the new adidas Ronan lowtop.  These joints are named after a tiny Montana town but their look is derived from serious dedication to pavement and griptape.  It’s the little features like a super-comfy Geo-fit collar and inset laces (keeps em away from ollie-induced abrasions) that makes the Ronan a must-ride and the impeccable Bred suede colorup means these are a good lifestyle choice to boot.  Click through to see more and look for these at adidas Skate retailers like Caliroots.

Converse Chuck Taylor AS Classic Boot Hi

We’ll continue to see new variations on the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star hopefully till the end of time and the latest twist is a decidedly rugged one.  The Chuck Taylor AS Classic Boot Hi just showed up for the first time at Bread & Butter Berlin looking just like your classic moc-toed Red Wing boot. They’re done in premium leather or suede with metal eyelets and corded boot laces, with both pairs applying white contrast stitches to different effect.  Click through to see more and stick with Sneaker News for word on the US release.  via Numelo

Nike Air Max 1 ‘ACG Pack’ – Black – Victory Green | Available

Unlike most packs that seem to drop all at once, the Nike Air Max ACG Pack has enjoyed a staggered release that makes the collection seem a bit bigger.  And they get no better than this Nike Air Max 1 ‘ACG’, a black upper/white sole combo that could have been right at home with last year’s massive Air Attack Pack.  Victory Green comes in on the Swooshes and finds tonality in lime laces, or push yours toward a festive look with a red secondary pair.  You can see both of these looks up close after the jump and look for them in stores soon or grab yours today from ID4Shoes on eBay.

Gourmet Due L – Black Leather + Canvas

A couple days ago, Sneaker News showed you a look into the Gourmet spring 2011 footwear collection, of which one pair stood out well above the rest.  A cheetah print Gourmet Due looks like a 4-figure handbag with its zippered design, but here’s a new pair that goes in the completely opposite direction.  This new Due L features a leather mudguard that gives way to a tonal canvas vamp, a simple yet effective combo that’s poised to keep you comfy and ‘clean’ in the new year.  Click through to see more and stick with Sneaker News for updates on the stateside release.  via Dunk
