Here’s another hot new Nike Air Max 95 colorway, planned for release next year. This pair has been done in a black suede, contrasted with volt on the tongue, laces, outsole, and Max Air unit. They are scheduled to hit stores in January, but you can preorder them now at End.
The Nike Air Force 1 VT lineup continues to grow with this new Premium pack. The Premium, which comes in both low and high top form, has been wrapped in two shades of grey. The majority of the sneaker is made of grey felt material, while the toe area has received dark grey leather. To provide a nice color contrast, white has been used on the tongue, laces, and midsole.

Just a heads up to let you guys know that the Black/Black-Anthracite Nike Total Air Foamposite Max is still available. Released last weekend, this colorway didn’t do quite a well as its Metallic Silver/Black counterpart, but won’t last forever. If you’d like to cop a pair, they are available now at Nike.com, with free shipping as well.
Chris Paul may be the subject of swirling trade rumors, but one thing is for sure, his tenure with Jordan Brand is still going strong. Here’s a look at the Grey/University Blue Jordan CP3.V. The mostly medium grey upper has received university blue on the tongue, heel, and midsole. White laces and a matching tongue logo add little more flavor to the sneaker. There’s no official release date for this colorway yet, but it’s possible they may release when the CP3.V makes its debut in January. Keep checking back for more info on these and other CP3.V releases.
Next year, we can expect at least two more colorways of Nike’s more durable version of the Dunk, the ACG Lava Dunk High Premium. Both done in suede, the first pair has a sand upper, with black laces and a white and brown sole. If you’d like something a little darker, the second color scheme has a charcoal upper, complemented with red laces and a white and grey sole. They won’t release until spring or summer next year, but you can preorder a pair now at Hanon.
Nike’s popular volt color has finally made it to the Zoom Kobe VII starting with this hot new colorway. A volt layer can be seen underneath the sneaker’s mostly black upper, which has been overlaid with a volt swoosh. Dark grey accents have been placed on the heel and sole. The release date for these will be posted as soon as it becomes available

His pro career might be all but over, but during his heyday, Darius Miles was not only known for being a good basketball player, but for rocking the hottest player exclusive Air Jordans as well. Check out this hot pair of Air Jordan IX PEs created for DMiles during his brief stint with the Cleveland Cavaliers. It has the common white upper, surrounded by an incredibly bright orange patent leather. A set of matching orange eyelets and a blue Jumpman on the outsole add the finishing touches. From Phase2.

Take a look at the latest Jordan Big Ups color scheme. The same cool grey made popular by the Air Jordan XIs, has been applied, white black lines and a matching black tongue provide a nice contrast. White laces and a white Jumpman serve as a third color. You can get these now at Eastbay, as well as most major sneaker stores.

Remember the Nike Zoom Flight ’98? Designed for Gary Payton, the sneaker has also been known as “The Glove”. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen these, but according to GP during a signing session with a fan, they are coming back out in October 2012. Gary Payton is expected to get inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame, so it’s no surprise to see a re-release in the works. More to come. For now, check out the video and pics of the originals.
Things were looking pretty bleak for a while, but it looks like we’ll get to watch the NBA on Christmas after all. For LeBron fans, what better way to celebrate than with a pair of “Christmas Day” Nike LeBron IXs? Draped in enough red to make Santa jealous, this pair gets additional color thanks to a white swoosh and a set of green and white laces. Don’t forget about the icy clear sole. There’s no official release date for these yet, but I expect to see them release on either Christmas as an online exclusive or in stores on Saturday, Dec. 26. Stay tuned for more. From Kickz-Lab.

Out of all of the recently popular color schemes to hit multiple Nikes, (Wolf Grey, Volt, etc.) Eggplant is definitely my favorite. I’ve always been a fan of purple, so it suits me perfectly. The Nike Air Max JR is the latest Nike to receive the eggplant treatment. This pair has been wrapped in eggplant, with the exception of the black tongue and black/3M mesh combo. you can cop these now at your local Footlocker.
