adidas Originals continues to reminisce over some of the brand’s top tag-team efforts during the past decade, their B-Sides Collection growing to include its first European collaborator. The Foot Patrol xadidas Originals Campus ’80s reprises a motif used on a 2007 triple release, but it looks like a single navy/white design this time around, as with the UNDFTD and BAPE editions. The Foot Patrol Campus was notable for its use of white leather Stripes on the lateral and tonal snakeskin on the medial sides, and while this new pair keeps the asymmetry alive, they go wild slightly differently, opting for horsehair this time around.

Only a few sneakers can be categorized as ‘universally loved’, and truth be told, the Nike Air Trainer SC II High teeter-totters on the border. While all older-generation sneakerheads can’t seem to wait to get their hands on the Retro releases of the original Air Trainer SC II colorways, the younger cats who weren’t even around during the early 90′s Trainer era might not have any emotional attachment to them – they might just cop ‘em because, well, they’re simply sick looking shoes. It’s all a cycle for Nike sneakers, and while the sneakerheads with seniority will say “You know, I was around when they first released”, maybe a few years down the line, today’s generation will say “You know, i was around when they retroed”. These are officially hitting stores on September 2nd and select Nike Sportswear retailers like Premier, so check out the extra shots below and grab a pair early on eBay.

Many decades after the Chuck Taylor and Jack Purcell served as peak performance machines on the basketball and tennis courts, respectively, Converse’s classic silhouettes are the kind of kicks sneakerheads seek out for casual purposes. Both have been issued in myriad variations and themes and with winter coming sooner than you think, it’s time for some rugged releases to protect against the cold weather. So just as you probably wouldn’t play any serious competitive basketball in theConverse Chuck Taylor All Star, these curly-haired dogs that make up the ‘Hunting Club’ are probably best reserved for playing one of Cabela’s Xbox games rather than in your tree stand. On the other hand, the All Star Hi ML-Shin Guard does indeed look the part of a winterized military monster, the tank-treaded sole and double-reinforced ankle much more the type of thing you need to survive in the wilderness.

It was a slow but sure arrival to the U.S. for the LeBron 8 V/2 Low ‘Miami Nights’. After an initial ‘China Exclusive’ release, the LeBron 8 V/2 Low Miami Nights (also referred to as the ‘Flamingo’) popped up at other retailers in Asia outside of China, and then again on the Nikestore UK website. State-side LeBron fans felt a bit left out from the Flamingo party, but Nikestore recently confirmed via Twitter that the Miami Nights will hit select Nike retailers in the U.S. This certainly is good news for all who have been coveting these brightly-colored V/2 Lows, so stay tuned to Sneaker News for more updates regarding the U.S. release of the Miami Nights, and if you don’t want to take any chances of missing out, cop a pair now on eBay.

Nike Sportswear has displayed freedom in their re-issues in 2011 this far, with the Nike Air Flow being one of the notable Retro releases of the bunch. Alongside the original Tier Zero releases, NSW dropped the Nike Lunar Flow, which, as you can probably tell by the name alone, is a LunarLon-cushioned version of the classic running sneaker. We’ve been showing you some great tonal-upper colorways of the Flow and for the Holiday 2011 season, you can count on these four bold new releases to hit stores. All featuring a tonal color-blocking, the Lunar Flow will arrive in a red, green, purple, and grey, featuring seamless suede and mesh uppers. Check out all four colorways below and let us know what you think. via Tenisufki.

Every once in a while Jordan Brand will double dip on a hotly anticipated colorway, “bringing the top down” so to speak with models like the Air Jordan III Slide. The upcoming Air Jordan III ‘Stealth’ is getting the same Slide treatment, with all of the details of the proper version remaining intact. Sure the elephant print panels are shrunk a bit, but from the contrast stitching to the cool-grey meets bred colorway, it’s all there. Continue reading for a full look at the Air Jordan III Slide ‘Stealth’ and be on the lookout for them at Jordan Brand retailers in September.

Vulcanized sole construction utilizes a welded sidewall to bring together the shoe’s upper and outsole, the latter more of an afterthought than on pretty much every cupsoled sneaker. So Converse could potentially apply the gum soles that many sneakerheads are going crazy over, and have absolutely no one notice other than the person wearing them. But just as this collaboration itself is bound to raise the profile of its release and draw more attention to what would otherwise perhaps be overlooked, the CLOT x Converse All Star ‘Handshake’ manages to give us a little gum in the form of a revised kickplate. This contrast goes great with the navy canvas and grey suede lowtop designs, so click through to see more and look for these at Converse First String retailers on Tuesday, September 6th. via Kenlu

To have a model in army green with white and orange accents look just as crazy as that same silhouette in a wild animal print, is a clear indication that you’re dealing with a radical design. But what else would you expect from something called the Nike Air Footscape Woven Chukka Motion, a lifestyle-oriented hybrid model that represents a decade of Swoosh innovation. This new colorway is perfect for the coming cold weather, the tumbled leather on its uppers a rugged yet sophisticated look for fall. Click through to see more angles and if you can’t wait until they hit retail, check with Air-Randy for your pair today.

With the Nike Air Force 1 nearing its 30th birthday, you’d think all the possible combinations of colors and materials would have been exhausted by now. While the Bespoke program is certainly rallying against that conclusion, Nike Sportswear has also been hard at work in releasing new versions of this classic. Check this one out-a Nike Air Force 1 low that is all suede save for the swoosh, coming in a variety of tonal greys. This has definitely been the year of ‘Cool Grey’ and this sneaker may take the cake for the heaviest application of said color. Take a look at some more views of this one after the jump and grab your pair from SoleFly or on eBay.

We recently learned that the Air Jordan 2011 Q Flight will be one of the featured Jordan models in the Jordan Brand ‘Year of the Rabbit’ footwear collection, which also included the Air Jordan 2011 flagship and the Air Jordan VII. The Q Flight is a worthy inclusion to that exclusive list, and for good reason; the Q Flight is a revised version of the 2011 flagship model, stretching the boundaries of Air Jordan technology by implementing the super-responsive Zoom Air with the lightweight Hyperfuse upper material. This Black/White colorway (a September 2011) release may not have the added pizzazz of the ‘Year of the Rabbit’ designation, but the simple two-toned colorway makes these a fine selection for hooping. Take another look at this upcoming colorway and if you like what you see, grab a pair a wee bit in advance from 95soleman on eBay.
