It’s not too often we see sneakers that take inspiration from the authorities, but this is one clean exception. Created by JWDanklefs for the “Kickin’ it at the Border” sneaker event in Laredo, TX this Saturday, this pair of Air Jordan IIIs is designed after our very own U.S. Border Patrol. Wrapped in beautiful dark green suede and leather, a black and white midsole hints that this pair originally began as a pair of Stealth 3s. The blue and yellow Border Patrol logo graces the tongue to complete the theme.

For those of you who just can’t get enough Elephant Print, Jordan Brand has finally come to the rescue. This planned Air Jordan 5 colorway has received the famous pattern from head to toe with the exception of a few graphics. As you can see, this pair appears to use the same Emerald Green seen on the Grape Vs on both the tongue logo and midsole. Apparently, these are planned for a release later this year. Keep checking back for more on these in the near future.

It’s been a long time coming, but Reebok has finally decided to bring back the Answer IV. The Reebok Question may be Iverson’s most popular sneaker, the Reebok Answer IV represents the peak of Allen Iverson’s career. Wearing the IVs during the 2000-01 NBA season, A.I. led the league in scoring with 31.1. ppg and led the Philadelphia 76ers to the NBA Finals. They lost 4-1, but Iverson really showed the world that he was more than just a crossover-king. This white and black model is the first colorway to release, but expect to see more releases in the near future. You can get these now at Oneness and Finishline.

Check out this all-new, very unusual colorway of the Nike Zoom Soldier VI. Instead of one of the commonly-seen color schemes, the folks at Nike chose to use a earth-toned palette for this new design.

If you’re a child of the 80s, then you probably remember Freddy Krueger quite well. The movies are quite laughable now, but for many kids (including myself), they caused endless nightmares. Now Freddy has returned to haunt sneakerheads in the form of this pair of Air Jordan 5 customs created by DeJesus. This pair has a white and black upper, splattered with both blood and flesh patterns on the side, front, and laces. A black and red stripe pattern has been placed on the toe box area, representing Freddy’s infamous striped shirt. These are a little scary, but they’d be awesome in any collection.

We sure have seen a lot of Pine Green releases lately. First, we got the Pine Green Nike Air Max 95+ BB, yesterday it was the Nike Huarache Free Run, and today we got a look at the upcoming Black/Pine Green Nike Air Max Express. Unlike the those releases, however, this Air Force 1 model throws subtlety out of the window, making Pine Green the dominant color. With the exception of a white and black swoosh and white laces, the entire upper of this sneaker has been covered in pine, including the strap. A white and green sole completes the theme. You can get these neck breakers now at Rock City Kicks.

Crawfish? Kind of an odd theme, isn’t it? This sneaker actually gives tribute to MJ’s Johnny Kilroy disguise, in which he secretly played for the Crawfish in the comeback retirement videos. The sneaker has a white leather and dark red suede upper, finished off with yellow on the sock liner, heel tab, and outsole. It’s still unknown to whether this is another upcoming Johnny Kilroy AJ9 release or just a promo, but stay tuned. From CK.

Only Nike could succeed in creating a brand new old school sneaker using new school technology. The end result? The Nike Air Max Express. When we first got a look at this sneaker, only catalog scans were available. Now we finally have a few detailed images of what looks to be the first four colorways in the Nike Air Max Express lineup. As you can see, the sneaker utilizes details that were made popular on the Nike Diamond Zoom Turf, CB 94, mixed with a hint of Griffey JR. From from front to back, the colorways are as follows: Hot Punch/Game Royal-Cool Grey, Black/Pine Green, Sport Red/Black, and Total Orange/Dark Grey-Imperial Purple. All four colorways will officially release on August 11, retailing for $155. These dates have been stored in the Nike Release Dates section as a reminder. From EB.
