After the OG ‘Aqua’ edition blessed select retailers in April, it’s time for a new adidas Originals ZX 8000 colorway. These make use of a familiar navy/maize pairing, but it’s made fresh by way of the soft blue shade at work on the ZX8000′s signature ribbed underlay. The soft tan midsole is the absolute perfect color to balance out everything that’s happening up top, so click through to take a closer look at this design’s understated brilliance and grab a pair from stores like Size?

Solebox is no stranger to crafting their own colorups for Saucony shoes. As a matter of fact, they’re no stranger to the Saucony Shadow 5000, having already worked with the model once before in 2013 via their “Three Brothers Pack”. This next joint on the way from them looks be a bit of a darker affair, with the color pushed onto the insides via the super bright lining. There’s no word yet on a specific theme surrounding the sneaker, but as well all know the Solebox team loves to tell stories with their releases, so expect more on that soon. Hit the jump for more on the Solebox x Saucony Shadow 5000 and give us your predictions in the comments.

LunarLon is Nike’s cutting edge cushioning technology, and everybody has their favorites in each category. As far as Nike Running goes, the LunarGlide is an annual institution and has given rise to multiple offspring, but some would argue that there’s no finer Lunar runner than the Glide’s upmarket counterpart. The Nike LunarEclipse+ 4 is the latest iteration, and brings back the pronounced heel counter and side panel reinforcements that makes this line distinct. Both have been altered by lightweight improvements in the form of cutouts and Dynamic Flywire, respectively, and you can see a whole slew of mens and womens colorways after the jump. Stick with Sneaker News for release info; with the LunarEclipse 3 having arrived this spring, a first quarter 2014 drop seems likely.

The New Balance 890v3 has released in no shortage of neck-breaking colorways since debuting last year. This 9oz REVlite-cushioned third revision to the NB890 comes forward today with a style that from the second you see it, you’re likely to think ‘South Beach’. There’s more overlap with the Nike LeBron series as the midsole takes on a faceted, jewel-like graphic, but a quick glance at the heel or insole reveals these are in fact the ‘Tokyo’ 890s. Check them out up close after the jump, then grab yours at shops like SNS.

Nike is synonymous with its Air Max running series. And while New Balance or Asics heritage releases might have the tightest correlation with suede and mesh atop time-tested wedge soles, it’s not like Beaverton just came up with the most influential line of running sneakers out of thin air. Models like the Nike Air Solstice predate the Tinker Hatfield era, and Nike Sportswear is doing a great job of giving these veterans the spotlight they deserve with premium builds like this latest Quickstrike. Let us know how this Court Blue Solstice compares to the ‘Reflective’ QSes that hit last year, and stick with Sneaker News for release info.

One positive side effect of being a sneakerhead is learning about global cultures through various themes applied to new releases. This latest Reebok Insta Pump Fury is a perfect example, and it is timed just right with a US release right between Mother’s and Father’s Days. The koi print Insta Pump Fury is inspired by Japan’s Children’s Day, whose dad-black and mom-red traditional coloring is applied in tribute to the creators of new life. These hit a couple weeks back in Japan but now a select few stateside shops have limited numbers, so check them out below and if you like what you see, act fast to get yous from stores like Feature.

We’ve seen bits and pieces, and now Puma unveils its Fall/Winter 2013 lookbook with even more goods to come. We’ll start with the Puma Trinomic XT1 Plus making its triumphant return after 23 years in original 1990 colorways. In a trend that extends through these previews, the XT1 is complimented by a run of apparel featuring the namesake triangular logo. Puma’s Macht’s Mit Qualitat premium drops keep coming in both classic sneaker and clothing form, and the same is true for the Slipstream vintage baller. The Progressive Running category doesn’t have any clothing options here today, but there are a variety of models and colorways on display. Last but certainly not least is an apparel-only capsule from the legendary artist and NY graffiti OG Todd ‘REAS’ James, and you can see the entire FW13 lookbook in more photos below.
