The adidas ZX running lineup has earned countless fans over the years, first as a high performance line and more recently in appreciation of their timeless style. The ZX look now carries over into this new model, the adidas Originals ZX789. These joints feature familiar design cues like the triangular geometry and particularly the distinctive heel counters. The first two colorways almost swap how their grey and black bases are blocked, with one pari adding neon while the other pair goes for a more emerald green accent shade. Click through to see both pairs, let us know where these rank amongst the adidas ZX running series and grab yours today, only from Dr. Jays.

The Nike Air Span has gone a long way since its original debut in 1988; now featuring a techy-upper with 3M strips, seamless construction, and breathable mesh on a running specific iPod integration-ready midsole, the Air Span+ 8 is all no-frills performance combining lightweight build and a super-comfy ride. However, that doesn’t mean you can pound the concrete without style, because the Air Span+ 8 is one of the best looking runners out there, with a tiny swoosh planted at the peak of the toe and a neat cracked concrete sectional on the medial side of the midsole. Marathon-training season is in (then again, it’s in all year) so check out these new pics of the Air Span+ 8 in Dark Grey, Voltage Yellow, and Black below and pick up a pair right now at JDSports.

adidas Originals has shown us what they have in store for the NBA All Star Weekend, but here’s one that salutes the everyday residents of Staples Center. This new adidas Originals Forum Low from the ongoing Tokyo Tech capsule might as well be a LA-Tech edition with this Lakered colorway that Snoop Dogg himself would love. It’s particularly interesting to see how the distinctive toothy heel looks when compared to the black/white/royal look that’s synonymous with the pack, and has us wondering who’d win in this Lakers/Magic ‘rematch’. Click on the jump to see more and grab yours today from Kicks-Crew.

The Nike Vapor TR Max is somewhat of an indirect sequel to the Nike Trainer 1.2 Mid Fuse. The Vapor TR Max features the same Free-grooved Max Air cushioned lower-half construction as the Fuse Trainer while featuring a unique upper design comprised of the weightless Fuse material. The Vapor TR Max features Fuse wherever possible – the toebox, center panel, and even the heel – making the Vapor TR Max as heavy as, well, vapor. This all new Photo Blue, White, and Dark Grey colorway just hit Eastbay so check out this sweet detailed gallery below and check out the Nike Vapor TR Max at Nike Training retailers now.
Style: 434368-401
Color: Photo Blue/White-Dark Grey

Nike has applied Fuse material to everything from the flagship Zoom Hyperfuse basketball shoe to the Trainer series and now even the venerable Dunk High, but would they go so far as to offer it to their chief rival? Seems unlikely, but then again there’s an undeniable similarity between Fuse and the Sprint Skin uppers on the adidas adiPure. And it doesn’t stop there, as the highly breathable upper has been blocked very cleanly, just as in the case with many Zoom Hyperfuse colorways and player exclusives. The adiPure just hit retail in blue/black/orange, green/black and bred, so click through for more and grab a pair directly from Shopadidas.

The Nike Air Max Penny 1 is undoubtedly one of the best ‘debut’ signature shoes in Nike history. A fat, juicy Max Air bubble on the heel, the enlarged jeweled swoosh, the pinstriped tongue – it was a beauty of a creation fitting for the most exciting and marketable player in the game that wasn’t named Michael Jordan. The Nike Air Max Penny 1 was confirmed for a 2011 release by Sneaker News last year, so here’s a look at the version set to drop in the coming months; not much has changed, and that’s clearly a good thing because the Penny 1 was a near-flawless shoe. Check out these new detailed images below and stick with Sneaker News for more information regarding this Air Max Penny 1 release. via Kinetics.

Good news — the Dunk’s Hyperfused! Nike Sportswear loves to apply fresh new styles to the 1985-born Dunk silhouette, but with the Air Force 1 hogging the Foamposite spotlight, it was time to look elsewhere in the Nike Basketball catalog for a breath of fresh air. And with their super light one-piece uppers, the Nike Dunk High x Hyperfuse is instantly the most breathable Dunk ever released. Just as the SB Dunk Pro has been revamped to make the classic style a performance leader a quarter century after its debut, the Dunk High Fuse has us wondering if an Air Jordan Alpha 1-style revival might be possible in the NBA. Then again, these joints are a Quickstrike release, so maybe they’re best left for wowing crowds who’ll instantly know the silhouette yet realize something special’s going on. Click through to see more and expect these at US NSW spots soon; Nike Harajuku just got their stock today.

Ever since it played the starring role on the OG Air Max 95, Volt has been a go-to look for Nike Running. Here’s the first Nike Air Max 2011 to hit retail, one that makes the most of the newly Fuse-d upper. A black vamp gives way to Metallic Cool Grey on the side panel Swoosh, with the Fuse mesh giving way to hints the Volt base layer. This, coupled with the super vivid full length Max Air unit mean that you’ll have maximum visibility AND style. They’re expected in stores starting February 9th, but you can already grab yours today from Shaolin8 on eBay.

adidas Basketball will have both ends of the spectrum covered on the 2011 NBA All Star Game when it comes to Eastern Conference starters. East starting point guard Derrick Rose can count on Dwight Howard for help defense or to finish the -oop, and we’ve seen the special kicks they’ll have on display at Staples Center. But what about the casual looks we came to expect from last year’s ASG offerings? Three Stripes starts the lifestyle All Star tie ins with two pairs sharing an ’80s basketball heritage. The adidas Originals Forum Low is relatively simple in West red and gold when compared to the blue adiRise Mid that features a wacky velcro pocket addon. Pre-order one or both of these today from Eastbay and stick with Sneaker News cos we expect to see plenty more from adidas as All Star Weekend approaches.

The first time Sneaker News showed you a sample pair of this Nike Dunk High Supreme, it came during the 2010 World Cup, and we couldn’t help but poke fun at the infamous Zidane head-butt incident from the 2006 World Cup. Of course these have no connection to football, but the French connection these Dunk Highs have just gave us another reason to recall one of the funniest moments in sports history. All jokes aside, this Zoom-cushioned Dunk High Supreme offers a level of luxury rarely seen in the retro-friendly Dunk High, using a pinstriped canvase upper and red/white/blue tab at the heel. These recently dropped at Nike Sportswear accounts so you can find them in stores now, but save yourself the trouble by picking up a pair from 95soleman on eBay.
