The Nike SB discussions have been off the chart lately thanks to the sudden cancellation/potential rescheduling of the Nike SB Dunk High ‘Cheech & Chong’ and the ‘Space Jam’ inspired Nike SB Dunk Low. It’s a sneaker that’s been on ‘Wanted’ lists for some time – an Air Jordan colorway on an SB Dunk – so what’s your reaction now that it’s arrived? The Supreme x Nike SB Dunk Low releases of 2003 (inspired by the Air Jordan III) were such huge successes, so why haven’t these been receiving the same universal love? In any case, the Space Jam SB Dunk Low just seems to get better and better every time we show them to you, so take another good look below and let us know what you think. via Kix-Files.

Available at Nike SB retailers now is this Quickstrike release of the Nike SB Zoom Stefan Janoski Mid. It features a white upper with a black inner lining, swoosh, and midsole rim, with a matching white skate-ready midsole. These are certainly a lot tidier than the ‘Brogue’ version we showed you yesterday, which featured the whimsical detailed upper from Brogue or Wing-tip shoes. The Janoski Mid will likely experience the same overall popularity as the original Low version has (for its skate and street-friendly design), so pick up your first pair of Mids now as these are now ripe for the picking at select Nike SB retailers. via N-SB.

Sneaker News has been updating you on all the great silhouettes included in the Nike Sportswear True Colors ‘White Pack’, but here’s a look at all six pairs grouped together. Included in this set is the Nike Dunk High, Air Force 1 Foamposite, Lunar Vengeance Terra, Air Force 1 Low, Air Max 90, and the Air BW Gen II, with each pair featuring a supremely luxurious tonal-white upper, translucent outsoles, and a unique graphic on the underside of the footbed.

For a Nike SB Blazer High that looks like it just came out of the La Brea tar pits, it’s somewhat poetic that the design seems to be evolving like the fossil records.  These joints first came onto the scene back in February along with a preview of other June 2011 Nike SB footwear releases, but back then their uppers were a decidedly lighter shade of leather.  The photos we saw last week seemed to indicate a darker distressed look with the same style Swoosh, and that still seems to be the case but one of these newest shots could pass for suede.  As for the Swoosh, Kasina reports the color as Volt, but these aren’t quite as neon as we’ve come to expect from that well-loved shade, so we’ll have to wait for another round of images to make a final determination.  Click through to see more for yourself, let us know what you think and stick with Sneaker News for updates on these and all Nike SB release dates.

Last week, Sneaker News showed you the first images of an upcoming Nike Air Moc ACG that comes with a crazy woven leather construction.  As if the Air Moc weren’t wild enough, and if the black woven pair wasn’t sufficiently zany for your tastes, here’s an even more attention-grabbing look in Team Orange.  Even with the variety of Air Footscape Woven designs on the way, these make for a nice change of pace, and the Air Moc has gotta be one of the easiest sneakers to get on and off your feet, ever created.  Click through to get a better look at the Team Orange woven leather Air Moc ACG and stick with Sneaker News for updates on the US release.  via Dunk.

With one each for men and women, the Nike Blazer Mid went in an interesting new direction this spring.  Those two pairs offered their Swooshes in the form of perforations that completely pierce the uppers to reveal your feet/socks, and now this motif has carried over to a new Blazer Low from Nike Sportswear.  These joints feature the same color and material blocking including a nubby woven textile on the eyelets, tongue and toe plus a smooth-walled white vulcanized sole.  They mix red and white for a crisp and vibrant look, of which you can see more photos after the jump.  Click through to get a better look and check for these at select NSW retailers today.  via HB

Combine one of the most memorable silhouettes of the 90′s with one of the more popular colorways of the current generation and you get the Nike Air Trainer Huarache ‘Freshwater’. Combined with a clean white and black base, the Freshwater adds a juicy pop as it the pigment wraps the inner neoprene bootie, outsole, and Nike branding on the upper for a sweet Griffey-esque colorway. Sneaker News previewed this colorway twice before (it’s just that sick) and now we’re finally relieved to announce that they’ve just hit stores. You can cop them now at Eastbay so take a look at the detailed gallery below and let us know if these classics are a must-have for you.

If the Nike SB Zoom Stefan Janoski Mid ‘Brogue’ was too much to handle, check out this upcoming colorway of the SJ Mid in Olive Green and Brown; the earthy green upper features black piping along the panel borders with a camel brown swoosh for contrast. The ‘Brogue’ version features classic wing-tip design and detail, but these, while plain in appearance, feature a ruggen suede-like material on the upper.

It was all the way back in January that we first got a glimpse at this new Jeremy Scott x adidas Originals midtop slated for a fall 2011 release, but regular Sneaker News readers will probably instantly remember that first look.  This new design is the kind of thing that burns itself into your memory as soon as you see it,  These joints accentuate an offbeat colorway with healthy portions of translucent plastic, leopard print horsehair and a unique fishscale/reptile skin material on the toe and lower side panels.  Click through to get a better look and let us know what you think of J.Scott’s latest zany design for adidas Originals by Originals.  via HS

It’s great to see New York basketball relevant again, and the Knicks could easily be up 1-0 in their opening round series against the Celtics were it not for a Ray Allen 3-pointer and a questionable shot attempt by Carmelo. The Knicks are still very much alive in the series because they’ve proven that they can bang with the elite teams in the East, and they certainly have one of the best sideline cheerleaders in the game in Spike Lee. The Brooklyn native, close friend of MJ, and rabid Knicks follower has been spotted all season long cheering on the blue and orange while wearing some sweet sneakers, like his Air Force 1 Low iD, the Air Trainer SC, and the Zoom Huarache TR Mid, but you might seem him rock these New York Knicks PE colorways of the Air Jordan Spiz’ike very soon (perhaps during tonight’s Game 2?). One version features a tonal orange upper with a black/white midsole and black ‘wings’, while the second tonal royal blue features  orange wing-tips with the same black/white midsole, with translucent outsole tying ‘em all together. Check out another shot of Spike’s Spiz’ikes after the jump and let us know what you think. via Spike Lee/Complex.

If you’re planning on attending P. Diddy’s annual ‘White Party’, look no further than the Nike Sportswear White Pack to find yourself a new pair of shoes. One oft he highlights of the seven-pair package is the Nike Air Force 1 High Foamposite, which features a pure white Foamposite upper and translucent blue outsole for that walking-on-water appearance. They also features a grey polka-dotted insole, a white canvas ankle strap, and a white Max Air unit. This all-white Foamposite material would’ve looked absolutely stunning on the Air Foamposite One or Pro (the Pearls had a tint of gold in ‘em), but somehow it’s the Air Force 1 Foamposite that gives it the true regal appeal. Check out the detailed images below and stick with Sneaker News for more information on the Nike Sportswear White Pack and the Air Force 1 High. via mita-sneakers.
