Play Cloths follows up its last collaborative release with Saucony with this new set of Shadow 5000s dubbed the “Cotton Candy Pack”. Built with lux suede uppers and featuring the iconic starry perforated toe-boxes, Play Cloths’ latest rendition of the Saucony Shadow 5000 is defined by three distinct pastel colors that represent the fluffy sweets often see at carnivals, street fairs, and other summer-time family outings. All three feature tonal uppers of Dream Blue, Coral Almond, and Mimosa with white midsoles, gum outsoles, special inner linings, and the aforementioned star detailing at the toe-box, laying out the perfect “summer shoe” vibe. The Play Cloths x Saucony Shadow 5000 “Cotton Candy Pack” will release in limited numbers in the coming weeks – first exclusively for users of the Swaag iPhone App (download for free and be first in line to cop) followed by a later release at select retailers, so enjoy the exclusive gallery below and stay tuned for a firm release date.

What started as a set of lowtops has expanded into highs, and now five of the Nike Air Force 1 ‘Blazer’ colorways are set to release this Saturday, May 18th. Each pair is done up with a supple suede upper in tonal colorways, finishing up a model that borrows colors from original 1970s Blazers. They skip the fat belly Swoosh, but the intent is clear thanks to suede being relatively uncommon on general releases of the Nike Air Force 1 (plus the vintage-style tongue tags). Have a closer look at the five pairs after the jump and get ready for a whole handful of styles on Saturday as several colorways have already begun to hit retailers like Oneness.

The Reebok Answer 1 will release on May 24th. The retro of the sneaker will make its debut in this, a black and gold colorway that we’ve definitely seen elsewhere in the Reebok retro category as of late. The sneaker comes right after the Reebok DMX Run’s bringback, wearing a similar DMX-tuned system across the bottom. Stick with us through to click for a 360 view of the Reebok Answer 1 and keep in mind that CNCPTS up in Boston will be one of the select retailers carrying this pair come the May 24th release date.

Elena Delle Donne is a battle tested scoring machine the Chicago Sky were happy to select with the second pick in April’s WNBA Draft. Delle Donne officially became a Nike athlete last week, and it looks like she’s already enjoying the spoils. In a WNBA YouTube video from a few days ago, we see the Delaware grad rocking a colorway somewhere between her new team the Sky and their Chicago Bulls counterparts on the forthcoming Nike Hyperdunk 2013. This recap of a conditioning workout gives several crisp views of the pronounced heel that presumably wraps the back of the foot in LunarLon. Check out the full clip after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for more Hyperdunk 2013 details including a release date.

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.

Jeremy Scott seems focused on topping his own outlandish creations with each successive adidas Originals pair he whips up.

See both Jeremy Scott x adidas Originals JS Bear “Glitter” versions after the jump and check in with us for release info.

Ewing Athletics is a brand that obviously owes quite a bit to the NYC area, as that’s where Pat himself spent the lion’s share of his NBA career. And yet they’ve proven that they can move units beyond just the blue and orange stuff, with plenty of colorways well outside those lines doing wonders for the Ewing 33 Hi. It looks like they’re planning the same for the Ewing Focus Retro, a pair that’s shown here in a black/red/grey combination. Stay with us after the jump to see the full photos of the upcoming colorway and watch for this Ewing Focus retro to hit stores for Summer 2013.
