Reebok has supplemented the OG ES 22 colorways with quite a variety of colorways like this new Excellent Red colorway that just hit stores. It shares a similar color-scheme to the Sixers-inspired colorways put forth by Packer Shoes in their design of the Questions, but Iverson and his physique was always better suited for the hardwood and not the gridiron (he’d need a lot of practice for that). This clean colorway just became available at Finishline so take a look and let us know what you think.

Since the first pairs dropped in mid 2011, Nike Sportswear has treated their entire History of Air running lineage as well as basketball cornerstones Air Force 1 and Dunk to the Hyperfuse treatment. Conspicuous by its absence in that capsule was the original Swoosh basketball sneaker, a design of which we’re reminded upon seeing the new Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Pro Fusion Mid. In truth closer to the Pro Leather or Chuck Taylor-descendant Star Player than the classic All Star, the CTAS Pro Fusion reads like a Blazer High Hyperfuse thanks to the featherweight, super-breathable welded upper and the layered effects common to Fuse builds. Let us know which of the first three colorways looks best after you’ve seen them all below, then grab yours from Converse retailers like Finish Line.

Although the Reebok ES 22 model hasn’t had nearly the same amount of success as its basketball brethren in the Question, these new colorways will certainly conjure the ticks of nostalgia from older sneakerheads who loved all-things-turf in the 90s. This new Grey/Navy colorway remixes that honorable Dallas Cowboys color-coding with a sick translucent outsole. Tough for Reebok to lose their NFL rights this season, but will we see the ES 22 on the feet of any NBA players, now that Reebok Classics is acting as the pacemaker for Reebok Basketball (we’re sure these will be just fine to hoop in)? Finishline has these available now so check out the images below.

The last Nike Air Max 2006 Leather profiled here on Sneaker News featured a colorway we naturally associated with the Swoosh-supported University of Oregon Ducks. This latest edition shows that not all green and yellow sneakers have to fit that mold, though the earthy shades on display in this Cargo Khaki and Canyon Gold mix indeed a natural reflection of the Pacific Northwest. The most organic and arguably versatile style we’ve seen since the AM2006 returned in the casual Leather build earlier this year is depicted further after the jump and available now at FinishLine.

adidas AG has seen its basketball divisions decimated by injuries in the past year, with Three Stripes losing Derrick Rose and Dwight Howard for long periods and Reebok losing their key star when John Wall went down with a bad knee. Wall recently expressed some fear that he might not make it back for the entire season, and with the Wizards continuing to struggle in his absence, this new Reebok Zig Escape might be the brightest point of the 2012-13 schedule. Check out its sort of digi-camo look reminiscent of the recent UNC Carrier Classic designs after the jump, and if you like what you see, you can grab yours at RBK retailers like Finish Line.

Foot Locker has tagged the period from next Monday through Saturday the #WeekOfGreatness in honor of the tremendous collection of heat that’ll pass through their doors those six days. FL’s biggest remaining competitor in the mall retail market has notable plans of its own this week, including the launch of an exclusive pack featuring the traditional Black(out) Friday colorup with just a little twist. This new Nike Air Flight 89 represents the ‘Total Blackout Pack’, a FinishLine-exclusive six-pack that adds subtle speckling and red accents to otherwise stealthy tonal black builds. The colorway and that midsole detailing furthers the connection this model shares with Class of ’89 peer Air Jordan IV (whose legendary ‘Bred’ OG hits on Friday), and you can see more photos after the jump below.
