Here’s another one of those ‘almost-LIVESTRONG’ palettes, which looks quite good on the Nike Air Max 90.  We know that young sneakerheads need some dope exclusives, but can’t help but be a little jealous about how well the neon yellow sections compliment a selection of greys that has some history with Jeff Staple.  Then again, the toebox and ankle area are enhanced with a textured nylon.  Cop a pair for your little one and light up their holiday with neon.  Available from Shaolin8 on eBay.

We’ve seen plenty of photos of the five or so Air Jordan VI Retros slated for 2010 releases, but they’re not using up all the heat.  Peep this Boys and Girls collection from Jordan Brand’s 2010 lineup, including this dinner-mint-delicious Air Jordan Spiz’ike just for girls.  The little ladies also get a pink AJ6 Retro, along with two different pink-and-shrinked True Flights.

The boys’ side of things picks up with another True Flight, this time in white and black with red touches.  It looks like the Flight 45 Highs we showed you last week will get a GS run, so stick with Sneaker News for updates if it happens to be excluded from a full size release.  Jordan All Day and Classic 91s both debut with variations on the Bulls colours, while the Jordan 1 Fund and CP3.III are both blacked-out.  This set wraps up with the March release of the Jordan Heat Check 2 sandal, and you can view photos of all of these Jordan Brand sneakers for kids after the jump.  via SC

Don’t you just love seeing a kid pass by rocking a dope pair on their feet?  Or for you older cats out there, you know you can’t help but make sure your youngin’s stride is rite.  Nike’s knows they can’t leave out the smaller feet of the globe, in this case making a grade school Very Berry pack.  The Air Max 90 and Blazer get black nubuck contrasted with a tonal flannel for the upper, while the accents take on the (rasp)berry colors.  Subtle gold accents can be found for that additional youthful flare.  Now available at most Nike retailers, but you can also try your luck on eBay.  Photos via shaolin8

Paul Pierce is an NBA Finals MVP and has emerged into one of the games premier clutch performers, but he’s still not in that Kobe-LeBron conversation.  The 8-time All Star and all around tough dude (11 stabbing wounds but 0 missed games in 2000!?) has been vaulted into elite company, joining LBJ and Kobe with his own Nike Air Force 1 in GS sizes.  These go with a green, white and black palette reminiscent of the Cs’ alternate jerseys, adding the ‘P2′ logo on the rear quarter panel.  They’ll be available for your little sneakerheads soon.

You know how the Air Jordan 1 has been beefed up, strapped up and coloured in every shade of the rainbow?  Expect that same treatment for little sneakerheads too with the Air Jordan J Man.  It’s basically an elastic strapped AJ1 Low that slips on without the Phat tongue that we’ve grown accustomed to.  This one goes with a simple white-on-black colourway that adds some spice in the form of tonal elephant print on the toebox, tongue and heel.  Cop a pair for your youngster today from NikeStore.

‘Plethora’ is one of those words that is literally used incorrectly more than in the intended way.  With the Nike Zoom Kobe IV colourways, though, we really do have an overabundance.  There have been nearly as many blocking patterns as games over the past year for the hardest working man in basketball and now the LA Lakers’ purple and gold has spilled over onto these Nike Air Force 1 Lows.  Apparently there was only a little of each hue to go around, since these are limited to a GS-sized run, but the Kobe signature-laden small sneakers are available now from ID4Shoes on eBay.

We see alot of Air Jordan 1s in various forms, draped in alot of different colourways these days.  The grade school sizes often feature some of the crazier product, including the Air Jordan 1 High Strap GS pictured above.  It rides the line between grey and metallic silver with a sort of weathered application of the metallic panels.  Blue laces and other accents finish off the icey cool look.  Cop yours at JB retailers like Millennium Shoes.

Late last month, we gave you a look at a new GS version of the Air Force 1 Low that was inspired by LeBron James, using his logos and team colors in the design. Now we turn our attention to another pair made for Nike Basketball’s other golden boy, Kobe Bryant. Like the LeBron edition, this is also a kids-only release which will no doubt enrage a good amount of Kobe and Laker fans that would love a crack at this super-fresh Lakers colorway. The shoe sports a crisp Maize/White/Purple color scheme complete with personalized Kobe touches like his logo, signature and number, making these a must-have for young Kobe fans. Check out some detailed pics after the jump and stay tuned for specific release info. Via Kenlu.
