Recently, a very popular colorway of the Air Jordan VI released that was nicknamed the “Oreo” due to the splattered pattern along the midsole and heel. But another highly anticipated Air Jordan VI colorway has been on the horizon for a while- black/varsity purple-white-varsity maize, which has been nicknamed the “Lakers” pair due mostly to the purple and yellow accents. Although the “Lakers” Air Jordan VI isn’t due to release until May 15th of this year, you can now purchase it early from UpTempoAir at a $170 price tag for adult sizes. Is this the best Air Jordan VI colorway of 2010?

New Balance 576 has been very much active this year. There were the France 576, the collaboration between Whix and Mita, and the Bionic Project 576. Here is a unique New Balance 576 that has very simple colorway and great texture overall material.
Each pair has an upper that is multi-textured and a color combination of grey and navy blue. It has a base in navy color which is made out of suede material including the heel and toe area. The midfoot section is in leather and the toe box and collar is in mesh. It has grey accents all over like on the logo of New Balance and also the heel.
This then gives the shoe a nice color contrast. This is also available in a reverse colorway which the base is in dark grey and the upper is in light grey. But all are made in white midsole plus a black outsole.

Still familiar with Nike’s Mad Jibe? Then for all the Mad Jibe fans out there, here comes another colorway to be introduced for the model. This is basically in red colorway, in all its entirety, quite the same with the previous burgundy colorway which was introduced last winter.
The upper section of it has altered panels between the full grain type and the perforated leather. But still, it remains in wholly red. It has eyelets in metal and the laceloops are in D-ring which gives a pretty looking accent to the leather. The sole has a white color for its midsole and it has a very interesting gum outsole. You can start expecting these to hit the Nike retailers’ store very soon.
These could be very plain looking but this would definitely make a lot of Nike Mad Jibe fans go gaga and crazy. Welcome Back Nike Mad Jibe.. this time in red!

Ever since i have started writing about sneakers, i have always expressed by hate for the Air Jordan Spiz’ike. Yes, there pretty successful, but Im one of those people who can’t stand to look at them. The Grape Spiz’ike we saw a while back just added to the hate i had against the Spiz’ike. But this Black/White/Infrared colorway of the Air Jordan Spiz’ike isn’t really that bad. I didn’t like it at first, but they eventually grew on me. This Spiz’ike features one of the most loved colorways by Jordan heads, Infrared. We got the release date of May 8th a while back, but these are available a little. You can pick up a pair at West or like always, eBay is also an option.
Summer is not far, which is sending sneakerheads on the hunt for shoes that are ready for the warm weather. Well this is your lucky day as we see a Nike Dunk High Premium that is certainly ready for the summer. This latest Nike Dunk High comes in a Red/Navy/White colorway. The sneaker features a eye-catching upper as it is covered with popping red canvas. Navy blue is added to the design and is placed on the inner lining, shoe laces, and tongue tag. White contrast stitching is used throughout the sneaker while the Nike Swoosh comes in a dark shade of red. Nike finishes the design off with a clean white midsole and a classic gum outsole. These are a sample, but expect these to drop in the coming months.
It seems as if we see a new colorway of the Nike Air Max 90 everyday. But the Air Max 90 is really loved by sneakerheads, so all these colorways are probably making everyone happy. Take a look at this Nike Air Max 90 as it comes in a fresh Anthracite/Cool Mint/Dark Grey colorway.
Overall, the sneaker carries a pretty simple look. The shoe sports a upper made mostly of anthracite and grey suede while mesh is used on the collar area and toe box. A nice cool mint is placed on Nike Swoosh, inner lining, tongue tag, and part of the outsole. This Air Max 90 is finished off with a dark grey midsole and outsole. This Air Max 90 draws a very nice appeal to me. What does it do for you? Look for these to release at retailers sometime soon. Via Nicekicks.
Most would really agree that Nike’s World Cup Collection is one of the best of the best this 2010 in the world of sneakers. But here goes PUMA with some edge as they pay tribute also to the World Cup creating the entirely new silhouette and calling it as Puma JB2010.
JB2010 means Johannesburg, 2010, the place in South Africa where the huge event will take place. These two shoes has a leather finish with the familiar World Cup color schemes of green, yellow and red. The white shoe presents Ghana while the black pair gives tribute to Cameroon. The print of lion head is imprinted on the heel part while the Ghana JB2010 has big, black star.
Much applause for Puma for creating more options for World Cup inspired designs for sneakers. So which one do you like? The white pair or the black pair? Which seems stronger in appeal?
