With all these amazing headlines dropping this week, Sneaker News is ready to close out the month of December with a bang. Four outstanding Air Jordan Retros were confirmed for 2013, while some new LeBrons and KDs were given firm release dates. The ‘Phoenix Suns’ colorway of the Air Foamposite One was revealed while the ‘Fighter Jets’ got a confirmed release date (and a price jump). Nike Sportswear closed out the AF1-XXX celebration with the Future of Force event at Barclays, the Zoom Revis jumped on the ‘Cool Grey’ boat, and the Zoom Flight 95 paid tribute to Jason Kidd in four team-based colorways. The Roshe is poised for another successful year as it attack graphic prints, and Japan’s mastermind teams up with the Dunk High for an amazing duo of releases.
Reebok made plenty of headlines with Packer Shoes’ sequel to the Question, a special Anniversary release of Fieg’s Selvedge Denims dropped, and adidas hit us with some more ‘classic’ Jeremy Scott joints like the Camo bear and another Wings 1.0. Ball and Buck hits us with another New Balance 574, Vans teams up with hip-hop/skate artist Lupe Fiasco, and the Nike SB Dunk High gets some shine with Classics Revisited. Mache Customs makes the headlines again with his sick Air Jordan IVs made for The Game, and Sneaker Con hits Charlotte, NC for the first time. Peep Sneaker News Weekly Rewind in its entirety and get caught up with the one and only source for the best Sneaker News on the planet!
