A model that’s sometimes overlooked thanks to high profile Dunk SB releases and notable signature drops, the Nike SB Zoom Bruin for September will garner some extra attention with this simple yet sick colorway. They’re crafted in Binary Blue suede, a single color as has been the case for basically every Bruin we’ve seen, but these stand out for their use of a slightly frayed denim-style material in a the warm Ginger shade for the Swoosh and foxing stripe. As we’ve seen countless times with dark rinse denim and khaki pants, these two colors can pair with almost anything, and together, they offer quite a few possibilities as we move into the cold weather months. Have a closer look at these after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for updates on all Nike SB release dates. via Kasina

Despite swimsuit season coming to an end, New Balance is still set on losing some weight. Contending with the likes of Nike Free in the featherlight runners category comes the New Balance 890 Rev Lite, tipping the scales at a mere 9.7 ounces. Of course what’s on the outside is just as important to a sneaker’s success, so here we have two Japan exclusive colorways that turn the color on full blast, one coming in a mixture that spans the whole rainbow and the other dipped in a nice solar red. Check out both pairs of the New Balance 890 Rev Lite after the jump and grab them now at West NYC.

The ’Un-Plum’ Dunk High SB just released a short while ago, and while that colorway was inspired by one of the pre-SB Dunk Low Pro B colorways, this new look from Nike Six is also separated by a couple degrees. Imagine red laces and Swooshes on this new Nike 6.0 WMNS Dunk High and you’ll see exactly what we mean, this purple and grey Dunk High for ladies adding a bit of extra pizzazz thanks to the silver-leaning base layer along with croc-like texturing on the suede overlay. Click in to see some more images, let us know how these rank against the other recent Dunk High 6.0s for women and look for these at retailers like Extra Butter.

The selective roster of Jordan Brand athletes is filled with young superstar talent with unparalleled potential. Andruw Jones is one of those professional athletes that could be described in that way, as he reached a peak at an unusually young age and maintained that status with his outfield defense and his powerful bat. He was once described as the next Ken Griffey Jr., as Jones possessed all the tools of an elite player and began a stretch of ten straight Gold Glove awards at the age 21. Things didn’t go so well for Jones after he left Atlanta, but his tenure as a Brave is enough to deem Jones of the best defensive outfielders of all time, and his 418 career home-runs could spell out a Hall-of-Fame bid. These Air Jordan XII PEs were issued to Jones in 2004, and here we finally got a look at these PEs in game-worn and autographed form. Check out the extra shots below and if you’re interested in adding these to a rare Air Jordan PE collection, check out the auction from nd4speed83 on eBay.

While there’s still a gang of must have SB’s set to drop before the year’s end (with the Entourages at the top of that list) it’s never too soon to set your sights on the future. With that in mind, we have an extensive look at the Spring 2012 collection from Nike SB, ranging from Dunks to more functionally oriented skate shoes like the various Koston and P-Rod offerings. On the Dunk side of things Nike SB is dead set on carrying on with the strapless version of the Nike SB Mids, with the re-released ‘Grip Tape’ Nike SB Dunk Mids being perhaps the last time we’ll see that form of support on a pair of SB’s. Other releases in the dunk range include a familiar looking colorway in the Un-Tiffany’s, a flip on the highly sought after Tiffany SB’s from 2005. The other Dunk Low previewed here is something totally new, with a bone grey pebbled leather on the upper paired with a reptile green swoosh in faux-snakeskin. For the newer models we’ve got a look at a few P-Rod colorways as well as Janoski Mids and Koston 1′s. Take a full look at all these and more after the jump and let us know which ones you’ll be making room for in your spring rotation. Via n-sb.org

Things have really been heating up for the Nike LeBron 9, with its official release date creeping up right around the corner. We’ve been giving you previews of these for a minute, and their recent official unveiling was soon followed by the exciting news that they would be available on Nike iD. So with Nike pulling out all the stops you had to know there were gonna be exclusive colorways too, the first of which we’ve been privy to being the Nike LeBron 9 ‘China’. This release, also known as the ‘Fire Lion’ due to the heel tab sporting the Chinese character for “fire” and the blue flame upper, will only be available in China beginning on October 1st. Continue reading for a thorough, detailed preview of the Nike LeBron ‘China’ and let us know how these rank amongst the other Nike LeBron 9′s we’ve seen so far.

Given all the other upcoming releases we’ve seen bearing the Aztec imagery (Air Max 90s, Dunk Lows, Air Max 1′s) it was only a matter of time before we got a Nike Dunk High as well. This version has perhaps the most minimal use of the Aztec print, seen only on the back end of the sneaker towards the ankle. Color-wise the shoes in the Aztec Pack continue to be unique from one another, this one going for a gold swoosh and a dark brick red for the leather sections on the upper. Continue reading for a full look at the Nike Dunk High ‘Aztec’ and stick with us for release info.

The first Air Jordan III ‘Flip’ got its name from switching the distribution of tumbled leather and Elephant print, but what happens when you go meta and change the script again? The ’Black Flip’ Air Jordan 3 doesn’t reverse its black sections to everywhere else on the shoe, but rather opts for a tonally dark take on the 2007 design that remains to this day one of the boldest Air Jordan Legacy releases. Will these be able to contend with the OG ‘Black Cement’ for most sought-after colorway for the remainder of 2011? Let us know what you think and check out some new photos by clicking on the jump below. via Osneaker

As the Nike SB Zoom Koston 1 is a sneaker still in its infancy, there are still so many go-to colorways we’ve yet to see show up on this shoe. Already branching out the Nike SB tributes like the ‘Tiffany’ Nike SB Zoom Koston 1, Koston’s signature still has a lot of ground to cover on the basics. The above black and white joints first previewed here are a great start, spiced up ever so slightly by the red shade of pimento. The materials here are consistent with other Koston releases, sticking to the standard suede. Continue reading for a full look at this Nike SB Zoom Koston 1 and grab a pair now from Flatspot.

Chris Paul is one name we’ll hear a lot during this NBA season. Will he get traded? Where will he sign once he becomes a free agent? Is there another Big Three in the works? A move to the Big Apple will certainly bring the Jordan CP3 signature line to a different level, just as the Jordan Melo signature line did when Carmelo switched coasts and joined the Knicks in February. As of now, a fifth signature is scheduled to drop while the Jordan CP 2′Quick holds down the fort in the meantime, but let’s take a look back to 2009 when the Jordan CP3.III was in the spotlight; this unreleased sample colorway has a ‘Silver Anniversary’ jist to it, with a full 3M-reflective upper and the historical Jordan graphic print on the upper. Take another look below and let us know where you think Chris Paul will end up at the end of the 2012 season, and to cop this sample pair of kicks, hit up tsm_2010 on eBay.
