We have given you some coverage regarding the Jordan Blasé Mid. Which seems to be a dressed up sneaker created by Jordan Brand for a subtle look as opposed to bright colors and details. These Blasé Mids surely get some design inspiration from the Prada Americas Cup sneaker, although they do not totally rip the design like we have seen by some other sneaker brands out there. These Jordan Blasé Mids are created with the aging sneaker head in mind. They will definitely go well with more mature outfits, while still allowing you to have a pair of jays on your feet. If you are interested in copping a pair they are available now through Wish.

While Fila might not exactly be taking the footwear game by storm these days, some of us remember a time when the brand was putting out some of the freshest gear around. Back in the eighties and early nineties, Fila was a streetwear favorite long before the term “streetwear” really even existed. Known for their simple styles and Italian flavor, Fila shoes and sweatsuits were a hot commodity. Recently the brand decided to bring back some of their classic styles in traditional OG color schemes, along with some matching apparel that really stirs up the Fila nostalgia. In addition to classic sneaker models like the Original Classic Tennis and Fitness, Fila has also come correct with some fresh gear that also throws it back to the good old days. Keep reading after the jump to take a look a look at the Fila Classics line featuring multiple colorways of two different sneaker models, bubble jackets and vests, and of course, those extra-dope velour sweatsuits. If you’re about ready to rep Fila again, you can find all this and more at PackerShoes.

Gourmet is back with another collection of standouts for the end of twenty-ought-nine.  These dudes clearly realized that the winter weather is ‘not for nothin’ and equipped most of this set with generous helpings of horse hair.  This furry ‘fabric’ finds smooth leather compliments on all but one, where the caramel leather is left to shine on its own.  Take a look at the whole spread after the jump and cop yours today from Woei.  via SF

The new adidas Originals Plants Pack has quite an interesting theme.  At first glance, this quintet is just a bunch of white (patent) leather sneakers of varying heights.  Upon closer inspection, you’ll notice a flower-ized Trefoil logo in green on the tongue and a brown outsole that symbolizes the Earth’s soil.  It’s a bit of a stretch, really, but then again, you can wear these with pretty much anything.  Stick with Sneaker News for updates on the release for Plants Pack editions of the Nizza Hi, Samba, Forum Mid, Stan Smith 80s and the Superstar 80s will hit retailers soon.  via Openers

The Nike Talache Mid combines a nice blend of sophisticated style and innovative comfort. This latest edition takes the model in a classy new direction using rich Sail-colored pebbled leather on the upper with a subtle Beige checker pattern wrapping the heel and moving forward all around the lower part of the upper. A Black stripe separates the upper from the White vulcanized midsole with additional hits of Black scattered around the design. While the White on White look might seem a little out of place now as we move into the winter weather, these beauties will be ready for some warm weather stylin’ this coming spring when they hit select Nike retailers.

Stockholm, Sweden’s SneakersNStuff (say that five times fast) has found its way onto alot of sneaker collaborations this year.  Their latest teamup is with adidas on the appropriately named Stockholm lowtop.  It comes in a grey suede that’s so knappy you might be tempted to peel a bit of it off.  Gold leaf printing makes it obvious that this was a labour of love while blue and yellow leather accents rep for the motherland.  Stick with Sneaker News for more updates on this collab.  via SF

Chicago’s The Cool Kids seem to be big Nike supporters, but even they’d have to concede these are a good match for your ‘Philly Eagle Randall Cunningham jersey number twelve’.  Dude was one of the most electric QBs ever, certainly among the greats to perform at the now (thankfully) defunct Philidelphia Veteran’s Stadium.  The ‘Nest of Death’ witnessed Michael Irvin’s neck broken by its thinly padded concrete floor (forget the ‘Astroturf’) while the fans cheered (?!), so you know there’s going to be some competition for these Ubiq-designed limited edition releases of two leather Clyde lowtops and mesh upper-ed Mids.  Celebrate the 700 level’s 32 years of mayhem and cop these at select Puma retailers before next Sunday’s huge game against hated rivals the Dallas Cowboys (and right after another World Series victory?).

Paris is widely regarded as the fashion capital of the world, so as part of their opening at the ‘Librarie’, Nike Sportswear employed local dyemakers 180g to freshen up some of their lifestyle models.  Tonal editions of the Flytop, Tennis Classic, and newcomer Nike Flash look quite sophisticated.  Meanwhile, what looks to be a nylon Dunk High in bright turquoise compliments a range of electrically-hewn NSW garb and implies we’ll see a brighter side of this collection, possibly come spring.  As for now, the more conservative joints will be dropping next Thursday, November 5th at 180g, with additional pairs to sell at NikeParis.
