Check out this preview of Nike Sportswear’s upcoming Winter 2010 releases. There are a lot of familiar siholouettes being revamped in new colorways, as well as some interesting risks being taken on Nike’s part. As usual, there’s something for just about every sneaker addict. From a pair of fleece-lined, blue and black high tops to some cushy, red slip-ons, there’s a little bit of everything here.
Kind of looking forward to winter…

A few days ago, I posted pictures of the lavender Air Jordan II Retros designed by creative powerhouse, Vashtie Kola. Here’s a more detailed look at the shoe from Extra Butter, a boutique in Long Island, New York. The shoes release this Saturday, October 2, but the shop was able to get their hands on an advance pair to give us a better look at the shoe.
Check it out.

The holidays are coming. Never mind the fact that Halloween, Thanksgiving, or even Columbus Day hasn’t rolled around yet. A few stores have begun to string up Christmas lights, and now we are given a look at two new colorways for Nike Toki ND this holiday season.
Now available in red and black with gold accents, as well as an awesome grape, the shoes have suede uppers and hiking-boot-esque laces.
Very simple, but very nice.

Air Jordan‘s new Flight 45s are dope as hell. It’s the first hybrid shoe that I’ve actually been into, with a perfect use of color (the teal and red detailing goes so hard) and a sleek silhouette. The shoes also come with a translucent Jumpman tag fastened in one of the eyelets, a teal Jumpman along the heel and a Jordan strap along the upper.
Not too much, not too little. These will be classic.

San Francisco-brand Huf just released it’s Fall 2010 Collection, featuring a variety of subtle colorways including blue, olive green, cream, red and black. Not so sure about the stars around the some of them, but overall, it’s worth a look.

Giuliano Fujiwara is a more than 20-year-old Japanese label that is based out of Milan. I’ve been seeing their Spring/Summer 2010 sneakers posted all over the blogs for the past few days, and I’m intrigued by the shoe pictured on the thumb.
While I actually do like them (a fact that perplexes me), they remind me of Michael J. Fox’s futuristic (sorry, I had to) shoes from Back to the Future.
C’mon, you can’t tell me that these….

don’t remind you of these…

Exactly.
But I digress…check out the rest of the Spring/Summer 2010 sneaker …

I’ve never really understood America’s fascination with Bruce Springsteen. Completely before my time, even if his band still does tours…
Anyways, Nike is coming out with a Nike SB Dunk Hi to pay homage to Bruce Springsteen. Drawing inspiration from Springsteen’s Born in the USA album, the shoes have the colors of the American flag along the ankle, and a combination of leather and denim along the upper.

Here’s a peek at the Spring/Summer 2010 Redfoot sneakers from Crooks & Castles. The mid-top, canvas sneakers come in three ultra-neutral colorways: black, beige and white.

I’m liking these.

Remember those copper, Nike Air Foamposite One’s that DC-native, Wale, posted twitpics of a while back? According to Sneaker Files, there’s now an actual release date.
They’re set to come out on February 13th, 2010. Which means that not only will men all over DC rejoice (ya’ll love foamposite like I love pistachios—with a lust that cannot be explained), but will undoubtedly result in a few domestic disputes between DC sneakerheads and their girlfriends.
Ex. “What you mean, Rashad? You ain’t buy me nothin for Valentine’s Day because you spent all your …

In light of the fact that almost 45% of my posts circle around sneakers, one would think that I’d own more than three pairs. Strangely enough, this isn’t the case. I always seem to find a reason to leave them on the rack-too clunky, too girly, too manly-any excuse I can find to scamper away to go look for some boots or flats.
However, Philadelphia’s own UBIQ has teamed up with Japenese brand FAWKES on a version of their Grace MD, and I’m actually interested.  They come in two different colorways, …
