Another rock-solid week for fans of Jordans, Nike Basketball, Ewing, Nike SB, adidas, Reebok, and more! Starting off – a release date has been confirmed for the Air Jordan IV ‘Thunder’ and the Grape V has been confirmed for 2013. Some more Air Jordan IXs in the ‘Kilroy’ theme have also surfaced. Sneaker News broke the news of the Supreme x Nike Air Force 1, while Golden State Warrior David Lee showed off his Home and Away Hyperposites. Another look at the Zoom KD V along with some nice Nike SB Dunk releases also created some buzz, while an official launch event for the adidas Rose 3 and adidas Rose Apparel line kept the Three Stripes brand in the mix.
Reebok kept it old-school with a Ruff Ryders team-up (remember Swizz’ affiliation with the camp), while some great Asics and New Balance collaborations kept the energy around their classic runners. Celebrity Feet was abuzz thanks to Nate Robinson’s Air Yeezy 2 basketball outings and Teyana Taylor’s impressive Ewings, and a great Evolution of Nike Air feature provided a nice lesson to those unaware of the history of Nike’s most notable technology. We focused on the Air Jordan II for the PE spotlight, but an interesting Air Jordan IV sample from 2006 might’ve stolen the show. Custom kicks were also a hot topic, particularly Mache’s ‘Flux Capacitor’ Mags. Finally, adidas got some love as part of our Classics Revisited feature, as we gave some attention to some of their most memorable releases of the last decade. Weekly Rewind is ready and waiting, so click through below and get caught up with the best Sneaker News on the web.
