The Nike Air Pressure made a comeback (sorta) in 2010 with the most exciting of the releases being the House of Hoops exclusive OG-inspired Air PR1. Here’s a look at a new edition of the Nike Air PR1 in a dazzling tonal Varsity Red color-up; utilizing a glossy patent leather on the swoosh and the heel panel, this new PR1 release is certainly not for the faint of heart (or feet), but for those who like to throw in a dash of ‘daring’ in their outfits. The tonal colorway combined with the high-top cut may remind you of some Supra releases of the past, like the Red Leather TK Society that dropped a few years back. Too flashy for the funk? Check out the images below and pick up a pair now from Osneaker.

We most recently saw the Nike SB Zoom Stefan Janoski Mid pop up in a black waterproof getup, but that doesn’t mean the model’s totally protected from the elements.  The winds of change have swept through on this white Stefan Janoski Mid, a Quickstrike release that was apparently slated to hit retailers this month as an in-store only release (aka ‘Below the Line’).  But as we saw with the ‘Cheech & Chong’ Dunk High SB, white Swoosh Skateboarding kicks are prone to delay this month, so be sure to stick with Sneaker News for updates on the new white/black Janoski Mid release date.  via N-SB

According to Nike, if you’re a ‘Cool Kid’, you get ‘Fresh Air’. Nothing ‘fresher’ than Chlorine Blue on a clean white base on one of the sickest hybrid sneakers we’ve ever seen – the Nike Air Max JR. The Air Max JR takes the Air Griffey Max 1 base and makes some interesting alterations – namely the removal of the ankle strap, the implementation of Nike Torch on the upper for a lighter, more breathable package, and the use of 360-degree Max Air cushioning. Not only is it a sweet looking shoe, they’re likely to be insanely comfortable! Eastbay just got these in stock so take another look below and don’t miss out on this new colorway.

The classic Nike Air Structure Triax ’91 was given an extension in height with the Nike Air Hoop Structure back in 2009, but it’s time for the original form to come at us once again. Structure Triax ’91 releases aren’t as frequent as we’d like them to be, but here’s a look at a colorway that may or may not release in the near future. This women’s selection features a mix of Cool Grey, Ink, and Tech Grey, with splashes of a cool aquamarine blue tone on the lace eyelets, AIR STRUCTURE stitching on the tongue, and visible Air unit. Originally slated for a Spring 2011 release – a season that has since passed us, these are either postponed for a later date this year, or gone fishing with the other scrapped samples. Check out the additional images below and let us know what you think of this new colorway. via pyrophilly.
