Air Jordan 3 ‘Black Flip’ New Images

The Air Jordan 3 ‘Black Flip’ has recently become one of the more sought after Jordan Brand releases. Its fast ascension can be attributed to it’s flipped upper that is composed of Black tumbled leather and Black elephant print being swapped out for one another and here you can get a much better look at the shoe. The use of Metallic Silver is also a major selling point as it punctuates the look by lining the outsole and hitting the branding. We still don’t know when these will be available but Osneaker has a pair available if you want them first.

Nike SB Dunk High ‘Cigar’ – Full Package

There was a 'Space Jam'-inspired Dunk Low SB released earlier this summer, but would the model above be an even stronger association with Michael Jordan? From the various title celebrations to just getting swamped by paparazzi on a regular day out as per the usual for any global celebrity, MJ is quite often seen with a cigar in his mouth, and this new Nike SB Dunk High 'Cigar' designed by Todd Bratrud in conjunction with the Skatepark of Tampa manages to nail the aesthetic on the packaging and the shoe itself. Much has been made of the 'Ybor City' Dunk High SB's rich, earthy suede tones, and now we get our best look yet at the cigar box-inspired packaging, along with details about the Tampa campout. Click through for a closer look from N-SB and let us know how these rank as we continue to see more frequent and intricate special edition packaging.

CELEBRITY SNEAKER ROCKERS: LeBron James – Nike LeBron 8 ‘Miami Nights’

LeBron James' relationship with the Boys & Girls' Club of America has been well documented, as his 'Decision' special during the Summer of 2010 was made to benefit and raise funds for the national youth-oriented organization that was founded in 1860. The members of the Kendall Boys & Girls Club were already celebrating a revamped outdoor park thanks to a $15,000 donation from the Sprite Spark Parks Project, but the event became even better as Miami Heat superstar LeBron James stopped by to shoot hoops, sign autographs, and to speak on his own childhood experiences and the importance of parks to his youth. LeBron attended the event wearing the Nike LeBron 8 'Miami Nights', a sneaker that recently released exclusively at NikeTown Miami.

CELEBRITY SNEAKER ROCKERS: Kanye West – Air Jordan 1 ‘Bred’

Since Kanye West jumped into the pop-culture limelight, he has been considered to be most noted celebrity sneakerheads on the planet. He has his own Nike shoe for cryin' out loud, and he's got his own line of high-end sneakers with Louis Vuitton! That's not one, but two accomplishments that aren't likely to be duplicated by anyone else, and it's no wonder that Kanye has been a fashion trendsetter for the younger generation for years. Kanye West was recently spotted while attending a fashion show in London, wearing a conventionally 'un'-fashionable outfit of a white t-shirt, ripped jeans, and sneakers; what we're more interested in is the Black/Red Air Jordan 1 he had on.

Nike Lunar Hypergamer – Camo / Action Red

Nike’s latest basketball sneaker has set quite a precedent with its lightweight upper and highly cushioned Lunar outsole. The shoe is sure to make as big a splash off court as it will on also with Nike thinking up kick ass color combos like this Camo and Action Red model. The stylized basketball sneaker features an Action Red translucent outsole in compliment to its Teal laces and Camo upper. Unfortunately these are Samples but hopefully comparable models will be hitting shelves at a later date.

Nike Air Trainer SC II Deep Burgundy

A throw back from the 1990s, the Air Trainer SC II features a nubuck and leather mixed upper with black accents on the branding and the liner. Additional hits of white add contrast to the classic silhouette over the outsole and parts of the tongue.

Jordan Spiz’ike ‘Knicks’ – Orange

The only thing resembling criticism we've seen on the New York Knicks-inspired pairs of Jordan Spiz'ikes that Spike Lee himself showed off months ago as a presumed exclusive, is that the blue nubuck pair could maybe do with a bit of extra orange to even out the Big Apple colorway. Well, how's this for some more orange?! Built with more leather and just a hint of nubuck along the mudguard area, this orange Spizike is blocked identically to the blue joints, yet feels like a harder contrast and would probably do well with a release date around the end of October. The official drop isn't set in stone as of yet, but we'd expect these as a Holiday 2011 release, which means you better take an extra job wrapping presents or something to make sure you can get all the goodies on tap for what's looking like the most quality-rich Christmas season a sneakerhead's ever seen. Have a look at more shots of these orange Knicks Spiz'ikes. via Air-Randy

Air Jordan XII – Dwyane Wade Heat Home PE

This Air Jordan XII Dwyane Wade PE was spotted on Agent D3's feet in early 2010 after leaving Converse to sign with the Jumpman, their red-on-white look a direct takeoff on Michael Jordan's 1996-97 regular season away defaults.

Nike Air Foamposite One Sole Collector Las Vegas

We have already seen the Sole Collector’s versions of the Nike Air Max Penny 1 and the Nike Air Max Penny II that are set to release this upcoming Saturday and now we finally get a glance at the third pair. This Nike Air Foamposite One Sole Collector will also be releasing as a part of the event and it is definitely bound to turn a few heads. With its Dull Black foam upper and Royal Blue lace plate this model is hard not to fall in love with. The Copper Penny logo on the tongue is also a great visual pun. These will be limited and as of now only available at the Niketown Las Vegas release.

Nike LeBron 9 ‘China’

After getting a peak at the Nike Lebron 9 Miami we know that the sneaker can be blocked nicely but we still haven’t really seen the shoe in that colorway in its entirety. We do however get a really good look at the next in line. The China colorway of the sneaker features an upper that is awash with Neptune Blue and Current Blue along with hits of Total Orange. No word has been given yet as to their release.
