Halloween in mid-November? Anything’s possible at Foot Locker’s House of Hoops, where a concept catering to hardcore basketball fans and sneakerheads has now expanded to most of the largest US cities. The latest HoH exclusive will have you remembering all the fun you had dressing up in costumes in late October, this new black and Max Orange Nike Zoom Rookie about as close as the Air Penny super-hybrid can get to a jack-o-lantern. They’ll light up the morning as malls across the country open when “Kicksmas comes early” to all House of Hoops locations right around the time the early bird lap-walking crew calls it a day.

Last week Sneaker News gave you a look at a Halloween-esque colorway of the Nike Air Max Uptempo 2 – a Max Orange/Black colorway that was more exhilarating than it was spooky. Featuring the electrified Max Orange on the upper with a black mesh layer and midsole, this new colorway of the mid-90′s Nike Basketball stud is an instant head-turner – and who says you HAVE to wear these for Halloween? It’s got that Highlighter Pack theme to it, and perhaps this is a sign for more neon-ish colorways of Nike Retros arriving in the near future. Like what you see? These are now available at your local House of Hoops, but you can always cop them at the convenience of your computer by getting one now from godblesswkadv on eBay.

As we approach the end of October, NBA Basketball, despite still being a big question mark, is still on our minds. The recent South Florida All-Star Classic reminded us why NBA basketball is the most exciting professional sport to watch, and even the super-realistic NBA 2K12 video game has given us more reason that the 2011-12 NBA Season is worth the wait. Need even more of an NBA fix? Nike Las Vegas just dropped a whole set of Nike Basketball PEs, like the Nike Zoom Hyperfuse 2011 for Russell Westbrook, the Nike Air Max Sweep Thru for Amare Stoudemire, and the Nike Air Max Hyperdunk 2011 for Chris Bosh.
