The Nike All Court is one of those sneaker designs that’s inherently asymmetrical, its signature rubberized toe cap extending quite a bit further on the medial side to account for the kind of protection you need for quick lateral movements. So when Nike Sportswear decided to apply a Footscape-style quirk to the All Court Low, it was only right that the toe also undergo a revision. The Nike All Court Twist sees its toecap evened out and its lacing system skewed to the lateral side like the Footscape series, this Grain brown nubuck pair a surefire hit with the same fashion-forward set that loves the ‘Scapes. Click through to get a better view, let us know how these compare to some of the other recent All Courtswe’ve profiled including the upcoming fragment design collaborations and stick with Sneaker News for word on the US release date. via Dunk

We’ve got another report of a re-stock today, and this time, it’ll probably disappear just as fast as it did in the original release. This past weekend’s Air Jordan V Black/Metallic Silver was easily the highlight Retro release of the Fall 2011 Season, and after quickly disappearing off the shelves, it appears that Finishline has some more pairs available for purchase. If you missed out this past Saturday and are kicking yourself for passing, don’t fret because you can grab them now on Finishline or on eBay.

Paul Rodriguez’ fifth Nike SB signature sneaker is among the most premium skate shoes on the market, but it’s not the only P-Rod with a ‘V’ in its name. And while LunarLon is indeed an impressive cushioning technology, you can’t go wrong with the combination of vulcanized sole and Zoom Air heel cushion that’s in play with the Nike SB V-Rod. The Vulc Rod will release next spring in another two-toned colorup, this Chicago-style suede lowtop accompanied to market by a matching skate bag. Click through to see more angles, let us know how these compare to the other V-Rods we’ve seen recently and stick with Sneaker News for the US release date. via N-SB

The home-run has become less of a sexy stat thanks to rampant usage of performance-enhancing drugs by once-revered baseball superstars. However, Ken Griffey Jr. has been kept ‘exempt’ from these accusations because of his ‘natural’ ability; Griffey did own one of the sweetest swings in Major League history, and outside of gaining a few pounds in his midsection, the only bodily transformation Griffey experienced was a severe case of Sotos syndrome, as a result of over-consuming Mr. Burns’ nerve tonic. In any case, his untouchable stardom has led to a successful signature line with Nike and a successful Retro push over the recent years, and the upcoming Air Max Griffey Fury – a hybrid of Nike’s new-age tech with the Air Diamond Fury – is a sign of many great things to come for Ken Griffey’s kicks. Check out the detailed gallery of the upcoming ‘Freshwater’ colorway of the Nike Air Max Griffey Fury and let us know what you think of the design. via RMK.

In 2011, the Hyperfuse technology has been ubiquitous, showing up on just about every sneaker imaginable from Nike. From Air Maxes to Air Force 1′s to Dunks, it seems like no sneaker was spared in the revolution. Here we have the model meant to carry the flag for this futuristic material-the Nike Zoom Hyperfuse 2011 Low. This low cut version from the forefront of Nike Basketball allows for a more responsive sneaker, with extra room for movement with the ankle padding of the high version gone. Four new tonal colorways of the Nike Zoom Hyperfuse 2011 Low just hit NikeStore, and we’ve got a full look at each of them after the jump. Check out the full images and let us know which ones you will be copping.

There’s a factory on West Main Street in Lousiville, Kentucky that takes in a ton of lumber and spits out the world’s most famous wooden baseball bats. When you visit the Louisville Slugger plant, you’re immediately struck by the 68,000lb bat at its entrance, though you’re much more likely to leave with a scale replica or maybe a keepsake like the keychain dangling from this new collaborative sneaker. The Louisville Slugger x PRO-Keds Royal applies leather lacing to a rich brown leather upper for a look that’s closer to a glove than a bat; is it still a home run?

Once a sneaker has reached iconic status, there’s not much you can do to radically change its appearance. In the case of the Nike Dunk High AC, in which Nike Sportswear removed the baskeball-ready outsole and replaced it with a simpler auto-claved version, the sneaker is still very much a Nike Dunk. NSW then replaced the swoosh with the bellied variety seen on vintage blazers, but still, the heart of shoe remains. Sneaker News showed you these two upcoming Nike Dunk High AC colorways before, and these detailed images of both the Bronze and Black colorways proves that the Nike Dunk, even 25+ years after its creation and with a few revisions, is still one of the most heralded sneakers of all time. We’ve got detailed shots for you after the jump so take a look and watch for these to hit select Nike Sportswear retailers soon. via Dunk.

Sneaker restocks or delayed releases account for some of the pleasantly surprising gems in the sneaker game. Out of nowhere, a popular sneaker that has long since released pops up for sale without any real explanation of how or why the repletion occurred. Online retailer Eastbay has been one of primary culprits of this trend, with sneakers like the Air Jordan XI Cool Grey and the Nike Zoom Hyperdunk 2011 Blake Griffin popping up for sale weeks (and in the Cool Grey XI’s case, months) after the release. The same can be said for the Nike Trainer 1.3 ‘Letterman’, a special edition version of the new Trainer 1.3 that Sneaker News gave you a first look on. These sold out rather quickly when they dropped at Nikestore and Niketown retailers, but luckily, Eastbay strikes again with a full size run. Head to Eastbay for yours, or snag a pair on eBay.

To this point in history, Nike Basketball’s Hyperdunk and Hyperfuse series had remained options 1a and 1b for peformance-minded ballers around the world, but only on the rarest of occasions have they been blended. The upcoming LeBron 9 packs them in with carbon fiber too, but they’re not the onlyupcoming release with Fuse and Flywire thanks to the new Nike Zoom Hyperforce. A model whose name implies they’re reinforced for the bullies on the low block, the Hyperforce does indeed emphasize its ankle support, yet offers a lightweight and breathable package for the best of all possible worlds.

The Dunk Low SB ‘Space Jam’ was among 2011′s biggest sneaker releases, but when it came time to reprise the most recent Air Jordan XI Retro release, Nike Sportswear took the reigns from the skate division. The result was this new Nike Dunk High in Midnight Fog, a pair that because of its tonal grey nylon and suede upper, was previewed as a ‘Cool Grey’ edition. This shade is a bit darker in most lighting, though that doesn’t alter the fact that a grey sneaker with white laces is probably the single most versatile look you could find.
