Supra Assault Fall 2010
Four new colorways of the Supra Assault are now shipping to retailers worldwide. Pictured above is the well-named Cabernet Patent option. Grey Waxed Fleece, Black/Grey Fullgrain/Suede and Navy Seersucker models will also be arriving at Supra dealers within the week.
Nike Air Max Uptempo 97 – Black – Metallic Silver – Varsity Red
Nike recently released an OG colorway in the Nike Air Max Uptempo 97, and since, we’ve seen a cranberry version release, and now he have detailed pictures of yet another colorway slated to release in the near future. Black leather and nubuck finds itself being invaded by metallic silver TPU teardrops on the sole that lead us down to a similar colored air sole. While varsity red is used pretty sparingly it’s definitely very necessary to the design as it as the appropriate amount of pop. Stay tuned in for more information on their release as it arises.
Nike Air Foamposite Pro “Pearl Available Friday, September 3rd
It can easily be said that they Foamposites has reigned supreme in the last 12 months. From the “Foamposite” Nike Air Force 1, to the “Cough Drop” Nike Air Foamposite, to the “Copper” Nike Air Foamposite, people have been waiting in line to snatch up a pair. However, it looks like Nike saved the best for last, as the Nike Air Foamposite Pro “Pearl is set to hit shelves at Nike Sportswear retailers on Friday, September 3rd, 2010. Originally released last year at House of Hoops locations, this time there are a few more available to snatch up. So are you getting the “Pro Pearls” or are you burned out on the Foamposite craze?
Adidas Originals by Originals Jeremy Scott JS Wings “Reflective”
We take a detailed look at the latest release from the adidas Originals by Originals Jeremy Scott Collection. The popular JS Wings mid top sneaker comes in an all silver reflective color way with silver metallic embroidery details.
Nike Twilight Runner Dark Obsidian/White-Yellow
The Nike Twilight Runner is really solidifying itself as one of the years better runners. Weather or not us stateside are taking advantage we are sure it’s tearing up the international market.
This one is done with a white leather base and navy nubuck snaking its way across it. Spurts of grey and yellow are also spotted but their use of the coloring is totally appropriate and well done. Tasteful and very well played is how these go over and hopefully they will make their way across the pond to us soon.
Nike Air Max 95 Anthracite/Metallic Silver
Nike’s Air Max 95 is making yet another appearance on a sneaker rack near you. The retro runner has long since been accepted as a crowd favorite and this colorway is sure to please the hungry masses.
This time the sneaker finds its way to retail in an Anthracite/Metallic Silver colorway that gives the shoes normal gradient upper a bit more pop than usual. That metallic silver on the top layer really leaps out at you and it also peaks out in the branding and the visible air sole. The use of black on the midsole also helps to achieve this effect.
Nike Dunk High – Midnight Navy /White
The Nike Dunk is a classic design that we have seen redone time after time and we never tire of looking at it. So seeing it draped in Midnight Navy and White is just fine by us.
Nubuck and leather make this sneaker a pretty good look by engulfing the better part of the sneaker including the outsole. A hexagonal underlay is found on the ankle of the sneaker and the grey laces and midsole make for a great segue to the white swoosh’s grand entrance in the grand scheme of things.
size? x Nike Sportswear Blazer – Orange Colorway
A while back we previewed the size? x Nike Sportswear Blazer Pack, which is part of the size? 10th anniversary celebrations and consisted of a black and a white colorway of the high top sneaker with orange accents. Today we preview the 3rd colorway of the pack, which is an all orange suede version of the sneaker, with white Swoosh and sole, as well as size? logo hits on the heel and inner sole.
