Sneaker News Weekly Rewind: 1/28 – 2/3

Weekly Rewind 2 3

February is upon us, and that means the Black History Month Collection by Nike is unveiled. In it is the Nike Basketball signature trio, the Nike Sportswear trio (Air Max 1, Blazer, Air Force 1), and the Huarache Free 2012. This week also shed light on a number of release dates of Air Jordans that are set for a Summer arrival. The Nike LeBron 9 ‘Swingman’ release a bit earlier than expected overseas, while the Kobe VII ‘Iridescent’ raised some eyebrows as well. We finally caught a viewing of the Nike Zoom KD IV ‘All-Star/Galaxy’, and pics of two early prototype samples had some buzz of their own going. NBA/NCAA Feet brought their heat as usual, but it was a recap of the New York Giants and their Air Jordans during Superbowl XLVI Media Day that was the highlight of the week. MJ broke out some Air Jordan 2012 golf shoes while out on the course, and after President Barack Obama made sneaker headlines last week, First Lady Michelle brought out her own kicks during an appearance on The Ellen Show.

After making an appearance as part of the Nike Zoom Rookie, the Nike Air Flight One will make its return in two colorways. The All-Star-specific Air Foamposite One ‘Galaxy’ has a release date as well. Staying on topic of the All-Star Game, adidas Basketball unveiled its All-Star colorways of the adidas adiZero Rose 2.5 and the adiPower Howard. The Dunk High will also be released in a pack, with a removable swoosh being the keynote feature of this All-Star collection. The Nike Lunar Hyperdunk 2012 was also introduced, featuring a combination of Lunar, Hyperfuse, and Flywire. China-based CLOT showed us their latest collaboration with Nike – the Museum Tennis Classic. Finally, a nice crop of Air Jordan custom sneakers made headlines. We’ve got all the top news listed below, so don’t miss out on Sneaker News Weekly Rewind!
