Earlier today we gave you guys a better look at the up coming Nike Zoom Kobe VI ‘Grinch’, and it looks like Nike isnt the only brand doing a Grinch theme. Converse is releasing a Dr. Seuss collection with a total of 8 pairs of chucks , designed with a certain Grinch inspired theme. The classic shoe features graphics from the infamous Christmas flick, featuring characters like Max the dog, Cindy Lou Who and the evil Grinch himself. The collection includes pairs for both men and women, and of course children. These should be available sometime soon at Converse retailers, but you can also check out the Converse website. You can see the whole collection after the jump.

Here is a nice look at the KD3 ‘Home’ colorway.

A white synthetic base on the upper with black details such as the laces, branding and outsole make this pair pretty simple. Add in some OCK orange to the inner liner and Swoosh border and now you have yourself a clean colorway ready for the hardwood.

Take a look after the jump and let us know what you think.

A couple of weeks ago we saw the Air Jordan 2010 “Silver Anniversary” go on sale from select Jordan Brand retailers including House of Hoops locations nationwide. But not until today did many of us see, hear or even picture this: a 3M laser version of the Air Jordan 2010. Pictured here is that exact Jordan Brand design. This Air Jordan 2010 sample is decked out in not only 3M material but also a laser pattern. While this design remains only that- a sample- you can check out some more images of it after the jump. And make sure to keep up with us for your sneaker information because EVERY shoe starts out as a sample, and Jordan Brand has been known to make some questionable release decisions as of late.

This Black Friday marks the release date of not only the “flint grey” Air Jordan XIII but also the retro premio “Bin 23″ Air Jordan VII.

Just yesterday we got out first look at a green Nike Zoom Kobe VI nicknamed by some the “Grinch” and by others as simply the “Christmas” pair. Now we’ve come across some more high-quality images of this upcoming Nike Basketball release. It is likely that these will release around the time of the NBA’s now annual “Christmas day double header,” which Kobe Bryant has often been a part of. Let us know how you feel about this colorway after taking this second look at it.

This holiday season, Nike surely plans to get in the holiday spirit- even with some of its Nike Basketball designs such as the “Grinch” Nike Zoom Kobe VI. But for those of you who want a more traditional Nike silhouette, the brand has prepared the Nike Dunk high pictured here covered in burgundy canvas, a slightly speckled sole, and black lining. These have dropped as part of the brand’s holiday 2010 collection and can now be purchased from several Nike retailers worldwide.

Last month we saw the Vans team draw from inspiration provided by traditional Mexican material by way of a couple of “Mexican Blanket” sneaker releases. Now the brand seems to have returned to the proverbial well. Pictured here is yet another “Mexican Blanket” Vans Slip-On and Sk8 Hi, this time sporting a predominantly pink color palette with white soles. Certain Vans retailers already have these in stock, but which “Mexican Blanket” pack do you think looks better?

By now we should all know Mike Bibby has quite a collection of player exclusives, thats the good thing about being signed with Jordan Brand. This Air Jordan XIII at first glance may have seem to released back in 2005, but take a second look and you will see the Bibby’s Team Dime/10 logo on both tongues, and a red jumpman and ‘Jordan’ insignia instead of pink. Much like the Air Jordan XIII low that dropped a couple years back, this pair features a white leather upper, with a baby blue suede mid sole that continues along the side of the shoe and heel. These Mike Bibby Air Jordan XIII player exclusives are up for grabs thanks to ebay seller markadim. For a better look at the shoe, check after the jump and let us know what you think about these PE.
