Disney x adidas Originals Superstar II ‘Mickey X’



Even if you think you have outgrown cartoons you have got to admit that this is just flat out cool. Disney and adidas have teamed up to bring us the Mickey X which is a Mickey Mouse themed Superstar II with a style that is anything but childish. The sneaker features a Black leather upper with White crossbones with Mickey’s hands and feet at the tips. The tongues depict a scowling Mickey head while if you flip to the insoles you can see him strutting his stuff from left to right sneakers. These are available now at select retailers in limited numbers.

Air Jordan X Retro – White – Varsity Red – Steel Grey



The Air Jordan X released in 1995 in a variety of team-oriented colorways that allowed some of the NBA's other squads to garner some attention while Michael Jordan was away from the Bulls. The Kings, Knicks, Magic and Sonics all got AJXs along with a variety of Chicago-style colorups, but only the Bulls colorways were retroed when the AJX returned a decade later. Instead of those 'PEs', we got a few new colorways including the white, Varsity Red and Steel Grey edition that served as an alternate 'home' look to the white, black and True Red OGs. Turns out there were also some differences between the '05s and a sample version that never hit retail, notable details including the sockliner color, eyestay material and outsole Jumpman.

Nike LeBron 8 V2 ‘Graffiti’



It turns out that Connor Burns' handiwork won't be the only Nike LeBron 8 V/2 to feature the street art aesthetic, as DJ Steph Floss has shown the world the latest in a long line of V/2 heat. The 'Graffiti' LeBron 8 V2s were also spotted at another all-star game of sorts, a Monday night tip where the Melo League squad somehow overcame Kevin Durant's 59 points for the Goodman League all-stars.

Nike Air Foamposite Pro ‘Dark Pine’ – Releasing Next Weekend



Here's a sneaker that folks have been foaming at the mouth for ever since photos first surfaced. The Nike Air Foamposite Pro 'Dark Pine' is just what Penny fans have been waiting for, something a bit more versatile to rock as Fall comes around. No shiny metallic hues or glowing greens and blues here, just a low contrast colorway with a hit of blue via the signature icy soles. Judging by the huge response these have been generating online for months now, we don't advise sleeping in on the September 2nd release date. Be on the lookout for the Nike Air Foamposite Pro in Dark Pine at NSW retailers like Millennium and if you want to avoid that release date anxiety then grab a pair early on eBay.

Star Wars + adidas Originals Superstar 2.0 Hockey



While the Star Wars x adidas Originals collaboration may have died down a bit from when the team-up was first hitting shelves, the saga continues here as adidas is bringing it back after the initial string of releases, apparently taking a page out of the George Lucas playbook. The adidas Originals Superstar 2.0 shown here is inspired by the ice planet Hoth, manifsted in the cool mixture of blues and whites on the upper and the icy soles on bottom. These sneakers rep the Rebel Alliance side of things, with the Alliance logo on the soles and the obvious L. Skywalker logo hit on the heel.
