Nike heats things up with this brand new Fire Red/Peach-White Nike Blazer VNTG High. Wrapped in a bright Fire Red suede, a a peach leather swoosh provides a nice contrast, white white laces and a matching midsole do the rest. You can grab these now at Size?
Just updated the Air Jordan Release Dates with a few new dates. By now you probably have already heard, but just to add to the hype (sorry, everyone keeps asking) the Air Jordan XI Black/Red-White “Breds” have been confirmed for release during the holidays. There’s no official release date yet, but I’m guessing the Saturday before Christmas (12/22). Bred IV are scheduled for release on Black Friday (11/23). If you forget to mark your calendars, don’t forget these dates will remain saved in the Air Jordan Release Dates section.

Check out this fresh New Balance pack, created as a collaboration between Sneakersnstuff and Milkcrate Athletics. The pack includes two different colorways, both very different in style. The first colorway is perfect for Easter, using a bright pastel color palette, which includes blue, lavender, pink, yellow and white. If you’re looking for something a little more subtle, then the alternate pair might suit you tastes. It has a mostly grey upper, with white on the toe box and ankle area. Both sneakers have been wrapped primarily in suede, and come with an SNS hangtag. You can cop either pair now at Titolo for EUR 149.35, or $199.29.
Someone at Nike must really be into Sprite. Last year, they gave us the Nike Air Max Lebron 8 v2 “Sprite” and this year there’s an entire pack. My favorite from the pack are these Nike Air Diamond Turf IIs. They’ve received a mostly grey upper with white and black accents, with a hint of blue. Gold has been used to embroider the tongue logo. The “Sprite Pack” was released in stores today, and also includes the Nike Air Griffey Fury and Sprite Nomo.

Looking for a hot new gum-soled sneaker? Then Nike’s new “Gum Toe” Dunk ACs just might suit your needs. Two colorways have been created, giving the option of either Khaki or Navy uppers. The toe area of the sneaker has been done in gum, while white has been used for the rest. Boot eyelets add the finishing touches. No word on U.S. availability, but they are expected to release online at Titolo in May.
The Nike LeBron 9 Miami Nights were without a doubt pure hotness, but they didn’t garner nearly the same amount of attention as the Nike Air Max LeBron 8 v2 Lows. A beautiful color scheme, but they were just lacking in the flair department. Mache Customs realized this, and by putting their talents to work, has applied last year’s Miami Nights theme to the Nike LeBron 9. The results are well, amazing. Using the Mangos as a base, the upper looks right at home with the hot pink, turquoise and black pattern. We’ll probably never see these from Nike, but if you’d like to get your hand on the Miami Nights 2.0, they are available now at Mache Custom Kicks.

This month, we get a fresh colorway of the rarely-released Nike Air Max NM. This time a black and red color scheme has been chosen, joined with white accents and a matching white and black sole. You can get these now at NK and on eBay as well.

In addition to the Black/Metallic Gold “Away” colorway, Nike will also release a White/Metallic Gold “Home” version of the Nike LeBron 9 Elite. Instead of black, a mostly white upper has been used, matched with black carbon fiber and accents. The Metallic Gold swoosh remains. Just like the Away version, the Homes will release on April 28 as well. If you are planning to grab both pairs, better get your cash ready, retail is $250.00.

Capitalizing on the successful releases earlier this year, Nike gives us a fresh new Nike Air Flow colorway. This time, a beautiful bluish woven material has been used on the toe and tongue areas, matched with Grey and Magenta and action red accents. A white midsole completes the look. You can get these now at your local stores, as well as online at Nikestore.

It seems that custom Grape 5s have been all the rage lately. Last week, we got a look a pair of low top Grape V customs, and now thanks to RUDNES, we get a glimpse what an all-black pair of grapes could look like. While the Grape and Emerald green accents remain unharmed, the usually white leather upper has been dyed black, as well as the netting. Jordan Brand, if you’re reading this, make these happen. NOW.

Last month, we got a first look at the Metallic Silver/White Nike Air Max 90 Current VT LSR, which were scheduled for release sometime this summer. It appears that they have already began to arrive at some online retailers such as RMK. Using Nike’s Vac Technology, a metallic silver upper has been used, finished off with a white swoosh and a matching outsole. A definite head turner.

We’ve seen the Air Jordan 2012 in a number of radical color schemes so far, but no Jordan model is complete without receiving the classic black and red look. For the Air Jordan 2012 A, the upper has been mainly done in black patent leather and suede, while a red tongue and a matching Jumpman finish off the sneaker. You can get your hands on these on Wednesday, April 4, retailing for $180. If you’d like to get a pair early, they are available now on eBay. Here’s a direct link to the listings.

Can’t find the Nike All Court 2 colorway you want? Now you can make your own! The Nike All Court 2 has joined Nike’s iD lineup. You can choose between canvas or suede, in a variety of colors. Currently, there’s a number of pastel colors available, perfect for making a nice Easter design. Here’s a direct link to the site.
If the upcoming “South Beach” LeBron IX Elite posted yesterday was too bright for you, then perhaps this Black/Metallic Gold Elite colorway will suite your tastes. Created to match the Miami Heat away uniform, they have a mostly black upper, with a bit of bling added thanks to a metallic gold swoosh and matching accents. A pair of blakc and metallic gold laces have also been used to keep the theme going. You won’t have to wait as long to get your hands on these, either- they are scheduled to hit stores on April 28, retailing for $250.

Earlier in the year, we got a look at the Ghost Grey New Balance 574 Classic. Here’s another look at that release, as well as an all-new navy colorway. Just like the Ghost Greys, they have received a mostly suede upper, with mesh on the potentially “get sweaty” areas. You can cop these now at most New Balance Concept stores. From Sole Movement.
