Here is a new style being released from Nike Sportswear in Spring 2010 for both men and women, the Nike Huarache Dance Low. The basic silhouette seems like a cross between the original Huarache and a Nike Court Force. There is a wide array of materials used for these, both natural and synthetic.  These Huarache Dance Lows boast leather, neoprene, perforated suede and patent leather uppers that are ideal for comfort and flexibility, which all sit on a rubber midsole and outsole similar to the sole of the Nike Court Force. Keep reading after the jump for a look at all the upcoming Spring 2010 colorways and thanks to Shoeniverse for the pics.”

Back in June, we gave you an early sneak peek of the new updated version of the classic Air Trainer SC, and now we bring you a look at another upcoming colorway. The Air Trainer SC 2010 takes the basic design of the original SC model and equips it with some new Nike technology like Flywire and a Free sole, as well as a large visible Air unit in the heel. This version sports a combination of White mesh and Black patent leather on the upper, with a White midsole and some subtle Varsity Red accents. There is no word yet on specific release details, but it seems safe to assume that these will drop alongside some of the other new Trainer SC 2010 colorways some time this coming spring. Via NT.

So you remember how upon seeing the Spring 2010 Air Jordan Flight 23s, we mentioned how they’d been gone for a while, save a hybridized version rollin’ on a AJ1 sole?  Enter the Air Jordan Flight 1, which seems to be the most appropriate name for a sneaker that brings the AJIV flare back to ‘85.  This pair takes the mashup design a bit further, incorporating the Cleveland colourway that’s central to the Sixty Plus and the collection it spawned, plus an Air Jordan VII-like tongue.  Jordan Brand slated these for a November release, so we’ll keep you posted for the US side of things, and you can get them a bit early from Kinstor.

Style: 372704-144
Color: White/Midnight Navy-Ceramic

Apparently, in boxing, the answer is ‘Yes’ when the question posed reads: ‘Is it the shoes?’  To be honest, there’s alot more behind Manny Pacquiao’s unprecedented seventh world championship in as many weight classes, but we did see him training in a pair of Nike Trainer 1 x 360s.  They’re pretty much the same as the ‘Philippines’ Trainer 1 that sold out immediatly upon hitting NikeStore this Saturday, but instead of a Free/Air setup, this sole goes with the Air Max 360 cushioning unit.  No word yet on their release, but if Pac-Man keeps winning gold there will just have to be more kicks, so stick with Sneaker News for updates.  via SC

When it comes to Jordan Brand and the Air Jordan series, the ‘icons’ that might first come to mind are, of course, the Jumpman, and probably the OG ‘Wings’ logo (not to mention frozen moments after jumpers in Cleveland and SLC).  Strange, then, to see a sneaker dubbed Air Jordan Icons when they’re derived from two shoes that MJ never wore on an NBA floor.  This lifestyle fusion model is essentially a pairing of the dope computerized embroidery on the Air Jordan XX3 (23) with the AJXX’s tooling and IPS (Independent Podular Suspension) system.  Expect this pair in March of next year.  via SC

Maybe they are taking the whole 2012 thing seriously, cos with only three years left ’till the supposed end of the world, Jordan Brand is emptying their vaults of highly sought-after heat.  It already started this holiday season with all the Air Jordan XI and XII retros, and January’s Air Jordan VI (6) release points to no end in sight.  Somewhere along this timeline we’ll find the above pictured Air Jordan Spiz’ikes at retailers.

One mixes ‘cement’ and ‘grape’ base colourways, much like the cement/true blue/fire red thing that happens on the ‘Fresh Since 1985′ joints that are also slated for early ‘10.  As for the black joints, call them ’stealth’ and you’ll immediately recognize the connection to the most popular pair of Air Jordan XXs (laser-etched nubuck is both quintessentially ’stealth’ and a dead giveaway).  Take a closer look at both of these 2010 Spizike releases after the jump.  via Warped

The releases of Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers editions of the Air Jordan Sixty Plus leaves just the ‘D’ in the ABCs of unstoppable scoring.  Enter the Detroit Pistons edition, making the Motor City look as good as possible in this backhanded souvenir.  Blue contrast stitching looks perfect against soft nubuck, while speckled sections of midsole tie in the silver, blue and red all found on the tongue.  They’re dropping next month, so stick with Sneaker News for updates.

For sneakerheads, the Spiz’ike typically tends to be a matter of black and white  – you do or don’t like it.  But for others it could be grey matter depending on the individual colorway of each release.  But it seems this pair has been getting love all around, after all it’s a combo of 3 fan favorites of the Air Jordan 3 – White/Cement, True Blues and Fire Reds.

Most descriptions and images you may have seen have revealed the Mike/Mars lace locks or the “Did You Know” print on the inner lining.  But another gem unseen to many is the insole, which graphically depicts the title of this colorway.  Found on the red insoles is a print of the typical Mars Blackmon image, honing in on the famous marketing campaign that Nike took a huge risk on to promote the AJ3, and later on the next few succeeding Jordans.  The text below it is unique, though, from other Jordan graphics.  “Fresh Since 1985″ is simply recognizing the beginnings of the Air Jordan dynasty, making athletic footwear apart of pop culture and fashion.  Though pairs have been popping up for sale, these don’t officially release til January.  For those willing to wait, enjoy another look with these new images.  And if you really look staring at them, consider getting the wallpaper found at our new Sneaker Wallpaper feature.
