For the past couple years, the South Beach colorway has all the rage. Nike has tried to please us by releasing as many sneakers as possible with the theme, but they can’t do them all. That’s where sneaker customizers like Ecentrik Artistry come in. Starting off with what looks to be a pair of Military Air Jordan IVs and applying the popular theme, they’ve created the masterpiece shown below. It has a soft grey upper with black netting, matched with blue and hot pink accents. A pair of pink laces completes the theme. If you’d like to get your hands on a pair, visit Ecentrik’s web site.

Many of you probably thought it would never happen, but Nike SB has finally given the Nike Dunk High SB the Doernbecher treatment.

They will release on November 30 along with the Doernbecher Air Jordan 9 Retro.
We get a detailed look at the Nike Zoom Kobe VIII with this upcoming Black/Yellow color scheme. For the new model, Nike has opted to reduce weight once again, going with a LunarLon sole option, while keeping a similar heel support to the Kobe VII. The Kobe “Shozoku” tongue logo has been updated with black mamba engulfing it. As you can see, this pair has a camo-like color scheme, with various shades of yellow covering the black upper. A grey swoosh provides a nice contrast. Much is still unknown about the Kobe VII and its available options, but stay tuned for more on these.

Someone at Nike must really like Transformers. Over the years, we’ve seen a number of Megatron-themed releases like the Nike Air Max CB ’94 and the Zoom Flight Club, and the list grows once again thanks to the new Megatron-themed Nike Air Flyposite colorway. This pair, however, takes inspiration from not only our favorite evil Deception, but also NFL wide receiver Calvin Johnson, who happens to have the nickname “Megatron”. There’s no word yet on whether this sneaker will see a public release or not, but stay tuned.
Yesterday I posted the new release date for the upcoming “Stealth” Nike Air Foamposite One, and today it seems that the Polarized Pink Foams have also received a release date revision. Originally planned to release on 11/23/2012, it seems that they will instead release two days earlier, dropping on 11/21. Yes, the 23rd is a Wednesday, which should come as a relief, as it means you won’t have to fight the Black Friday crowds to get a pair. If you’d like to play it safe and get your pair early, they are available now through eBay seller shiguy.
