John Kim 
You may have your 2011 sneaker pick-up calendar already figured out, but remember that not all sneakers have solid release dates! Some great releases may fall under the radar, so the Sneaker News Weekly Buyer’s Guide puts a spotlight on those kicks that deserve attention (mainly because they just became available in stores). Some big releases occurred this week, like the release of the Air Force 1 High Hyperfuse in three colorways (though just one is available) as well as the Air Jordan 1 Phat in the familiar white/navy colorway. A great set of Supra skate shoes also became available in a navy blue ‘Old School’ motif as well. Check out the rest of this week’s best releases below and sharpen your sneaker rotation with any one of the selections below!
