Now here’s a color scheme you don’t see everyday. This upcoming Air Max 360 BB release has a peach upper, contrasted by a coral red swoosh, and a matching white and coral red sole. Definitely not for everyone, but I’m sure some of you will like it. They are planned for release in May.

Ray Allen is notorious for wearing the hottest player exclusives. Just in the last couple of years, we’ve seen Sugar Ray in an exclusive Air Jordan 2010 colorway, the Jumpman Pro, and who could forget the White and Gold Air Jordan XIs? The list goes on. Here’s a look at a pair of Air Jordan IIs made exclusively for the NBA’s best three-point shooter. Created to be worn during the Celtics’ home games, the IIs, have a mostly white upper with green accents. Ray Allen’s nickname has been embroidered on the side. Pics from Osneaker, who also has this pair available for purchase.

A couple of years ago, we got the Nike Penny 1/2 Cent in a black and green color scheme. Those must have done pretty well, because now we’re getting the Nike Air Penny 1s in a Black/Electric Green colorway as part of the Highlighter Pack. These will be released at House of Hoops locations in May 2011.

I know I’m late and a lot of you have probably already seen these by now, but I just realized that I never posted these. This Spring, Jordan Brand finally plans to give the Air Jordan Vs the Cool Grey treatment. Actually, the official color is Wolf Grey, but I’d say it’s close enough. They have a mostly The Light Graphite/White-Wolf Grey Air Jordan Vs are expected to release on May 14. (5/14/2011). It’s been posted in the Air Jordan Release Dates section in case you guys forget to mark it on your calendar.

Tonight we get a preview of the upcoming colorways of the Jordan CMFT Viz Air 13, a running sneaker obviously inspired by the Air Jordan XIIIs. They’re just renderings, but if these color schemes look anything the pics, these are gonna be definite neckbreakers. Pics from US11.
Custom kick designer Mayor has done it again, this time creating a pair of Nike SB Dunk Force 1s inspired by the highly sought after Supreme Dunk SBs. These are one-offs, so if you were hoping to get a pair, you are completely out of luck.
It’s been a while since we’ve seen gingham fabric on pair of Dunks, but it has finally returned. This time, Nike has pair the popular picnic blanket fabric with an obsidian blue upper, made of leather and nylon. Unlike the 2009 releases, the gingham fabric has been used a lot more sparingly this time, only receiving placement on the heel area. A pair of cerulean blue laces and a blue sole add the finishing touches.
Here’s a first a look at the Air Jordan P.I.T. CQ, one of Jordan Brand’s newest sneakers for 2011. This time, they’ve created a sneaker completed from scratch, which is a relief, considering all of the odd hybrid models we’ve been getting lately. This pair consists of a black upper with white and red accents, and is planned for release this April.
The Nike Air Max Lebron VIII has been out for a while, Nike is isn’t finished with the VIIs yet. Here’s a look at the Nike Air Max Lebron VII P.S. (Post-season). They have an all-black upper, followed by an icy clear sole. Unfortunately, it looks like these will only remain as samples.

This is definitely the year of the Air Jordan III. First we got the White/Cement IIIs, then the Black History Months, the Stealths for kids, and of course the True Blues later this year. Now, here’s a look at another possible colorway. Pics of this new Pearlized sample just surfaced and they are already getting a lot of attention. The entire upper has received a pearlized finish, off-white accents, and matching elephant print. Hopefully I’ll be able to add these to the Air Jordan Release Dates list.

Combining the Air Jordan V with the Air Jordan I, Jordan Brand has created an all-new sneaker, called the Air Jordan 5 Prime. The usual swoosh has been replaced with netting from the Vs. Also notice the eyelets, and of course, the silver 3M reflective tongue. This colorway takes inspiration from the White/Fire Red-Black Air Jordan Vs. No official release date, but stay tuned!

What happens when you cross an old school basketball sneaker with an even older dress shoe design? Answer: The Nike Air Royal “Wingtip” Pack. Inspired by the classic wingtip dress shoe, these sneakers have received perforations along the toes box and sides, including the swoosh. They come in the two colors shows, white and navy, and black and red. As cool as you may think they are, don’t wear them to your next job interview.
I guess all-black shoes must be really popular this year, First the Air Jordan Six Rings, then Air Jordan 2011 “Blackout”, and now Nike gets into the game with the Nike Air Max Penny 1 Ripstop. This time, not even the sole was spared, every part of this sneaker is completely black, from top to bottom. So far, these are just samples, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we get a release date in the near future. What do you guys think?

It’s only been two years since the last release, but True Blue IIIs are already making a return. Luckily, this time they won’t be limited to Asia, instead we will get a general release. Judging from the looks of things, these are super close to the 2009 version. The White/True Blue Air Jordan III will officially be available in June, but right now, you can cop them at Marqueesole.

Sneaker made famous by Sir Charles has returned! The CB34 comes back this time in a wolf grey upper, with red accents and a white midsole. These look just as good as the originals, and more than likely, they will sell just as well. You’ll be able to get your hands on these this April.
