Reebok Pump Omni Lite “Kubrick” Pack

Stanley Kubrick was one of the greatest directors of his time. His forethought and attention to detail were things of legend. To pay tribute to this genius of a director, Reebok has put together the Pump Omni Lite “Kubrick” Pack.

The pack celebrates two of Kubrick’s biggest movie, “2001: A Space Odyssey” and “Full Metal Jacket.” The “2001″ pair sport a black patent leather upper that that is interrupted by a fully perforated leather toe box. The interior is painted red and it matches the red colored computer chip graphic on the ankle collar and on the tongue. The pair also includes a key chain with a red dot in a homage to HAL, the computer system in the movie. The second pair, replaces the patent leather with a tan leather and uses a white leather in the toe box. The ankle collar is subsequently decorated with a camouflage print that includes a “peace” sign, an obvious inspiration from the movie.

Jordan Brand’s Exclusive Fabulous 23 Party – All-Star Weekend 2010

During All-Star weekend, Jordan and a few of his friends came together to celebrate the Jordan Brand at the exclusive Fabulous 23 Party. As hard as it is to believe, the brand has been around for 25 years. Oddly enough, the brand has been around longer than some of its athletes. In addition to Team Jordan athletes Dwayne Wade, Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony, and Josh Howard, Jordan was joined by Cedric the Entertainer, Robin Thicke, Vivica A. Fox, Common, Russell Simmons and Spike Lee.

Caviar Cartel x SSUR x DC Preview

Looking to drop this Fall, DC has put together a two shoe collaboration with SSUR x Caviar Cartel. The shoes were spotted at the Project/Magic trade show going on in Las Vegas.

Both pairs use nubuck as the primary material for the upper in an either red or black colorway. Both pairs are also adorned with the words “Caviar Cartel” on the lateral ankle side in matching colors. The heel of each outsole sports an air pocket and they both sport the SSUR logo on the heel. According to tradition, the red colorway represents the Soviet Russian heritage of artist SSUR, while the black represents the black market trade of caviar. Look for both shoes later this year.

Air Jordan VI Motorsports – Elephant Print

Did you get your Air Jordan VI Motorsports? If the answer is yes we are willing to wager that you don’t have them with a lazer etched elephant print upper so feast your eyes on these puppies.

Those of you who were lucky enough to be at the Air Jordan 23/25 experience had the opportunity to lazer anything you chose. One attendee had the foresight to take his Motorsport VI’s and get the upper done to match that cool elephant print lining on the inside. The cool thing about it is that the etching matches the smoke grey outsole. What do you guys think? Via TSG

Vans Classics – Chambray Pack

Finally, the Era silhouette sports a blue design, while a matching Old Skool colorways was also created. Look for the pack to hit retailers in March

Video: DJ Khaled and Greg Street x Copper Foamposites

DJ Greg Street caught DJ Khaled in footlocker buying some shoes that everyone could get, and decided it would be best if he hooked him up with a pair of the Copper Foamposites. In the video he kinda puts Khaled on blast and Mr. WE GOIN IN, makes sure he sets the record straight. LOL

Nike Air Max 90 Preview

The Air Max 90 will be popping up in a few great color ways this year and in what seems to be a running theme (no pun intended) on the site we have a few cool pairs for the ladies.

Here we see them in two color ways including navy leather with pink accents and white leather white suede with turquoise touches. The navy pair is a combo of leather an mesh with very slight pink accenting along the lining and tongue meanwhile the white suede pair has a black suede mudguard to counter the blue design elements. Look for these to release sooner than later. Via Sneaker Freaker

Nike Air Max 95 Neon – Spring 2010 Release Information

The classic colorway in the timeless silhouette is scheduled to hit Nike retailers on February 27, 2010. Hopefully the quality of these lives up to past designs, as Nike has seemed to be disappointing us with the quality of the shoe in recently released designs. Stay tuned in for detailed pictures.

Nike Air Penny II “Atlantic Blue” Restock

For those of you who missed the boat on the Atlantic Blue Air Penny II’s looks like the ship has docked again. The shoes are being spotted at Foot Lockers as well as Footaction. This by no means should make you dilly dally on picking up a pair as they will probably be going just as quick as they came. So if you got the cash to cop and this was on your must have list now is the chance.

Nike Air Max 1 White/Julep-Grey

The Nike Air Max 1 looks great no matter how you cut it. The model is built to house any color way you throw at it and this one is done for the ladies in a fresh yet feminine color up.

Done in White/Julep-Grey the shoes look perfect for those days where we get spring showers. The Julep mudguard and swoosh play perfectly against the grey and yellow accents. Orange is also along for the ride in form of logo embroidery and lace eyelets. No word on when these hit the states but if you want em now hit up.

Nike Air Penny III – Eggplant – White – June 2010

Penny Hardaway has had some great sneakers and luckily Nike has seen fit to make them some great reissues. The foam friendly kicks have had us all raving and there’s no reason why the reaction to this Eggplant Penny III should be any different.

The shoe is coming thru power packed with the famed Eggplant purple upper in tow. With white leather holding down the rest of the upper these are all set to drop later this year. These will be at Foot Locker on June 18th and while we aren’t sure if that means house of hoops exclusive we are sure that it means you should drop by and pick up a pair.

Nike Air Max Griffey 1 – Grey / Marina Blue – Metallic Silver – Release Information

The Nike Air Max Griffey 1 saw a few colorways release in 2009, and hopefully a few more will come about this year. We already know bout one colorway, which is shown here from a few different angles. The Nike Air Max Griffey 1 shown here sports a predominantly grey upper constructed from nubuck, along with grey leather inserts and a metallic silver Nike swoosh. Highlighting the design are the marina blue accents seen on the tongue logo, shoe lacing eyelets, and air sole unit. Look for them to release Saturday, February 20, 2010 at select Nike accounts including Footlocker’s House of Hoops.

Nike Air Max 1 “Try-On”

For those of us wondering what exactly the “Try-On” series is about over at Nike they represent the shoes that you can try on prior to designing your own at the Nike iD studio.

The shoe is done in a tonal grey upper thanks to the mesh and nubuck used throughout while splattered suede accents touch the forefoot, heel and ankle eyelet. Slight 3M accenting can be found on the swoosh and ankle collaring to make this shoe simple as ever but largely effective while its at it.

Nike Air Pippen White/Black/Metallic Silver

It was almost a year ago today when we let the world know that we wanted them to bring back the Nike Air Pippen. It took a while, but they heard us and now you will see the retro hit the store shelves on May 7th, 2010. We have seen lots of hybrids of this shoe, but I am glad they are just giving it to us straight. (Pause)

Based in an all white leather upper, pieces of metallic silver are found on the Nike and Pippen logos on the toebox, tongue, and heel. The outsole is all black and broken up by a circular pattern on the forefoot, while an air unit window sits at the heel.

Nike Air Max 95 Black/Blue

This year the "Air Max 95" series have been releasing a quite few color ways! If you're an "Orlando Magic" fan, im pretty sure you're going to love these. The color ways are quite similar to the "Air Penny Edition!" These aren't available in the states yet, but you can get your pair at JD Sports.

Vans Vault Mountain Edition New Arrival

Vans are a brand that are heavily associated with California. Be it the bay or L.A. nothing says left coast like the vulcanized sneakers. And if you just happen to be in L.A. looks like Proper has a few new styles of the Mountain Edtions.

Coming in either black or maroon both shoes are made of suede with a midfoot strap. As far as complimenting materials the black finds solace in a tonal leather meanwhile the jarring salmon shakes things up on the maroon pair. Both pair however have a white vulc sole. Look for them now at Proper

Nike SB Mid Dunks "Donatello"

This may look like the Donatello that some of you are familiar with but they are definitely not. These are the sample version of the shoes and feature one minor difference in detail.

The retail version of these shoes had a brown tumbled leather side panel and these have a white tumbled leather panel. The rest of the shoe remains intact with brown suede complimenting the lime green swoosh, toe and lining. Purple plays a great accent to the entire design while white adds the perfect amount of flair. Via SoleRhythm

COPPER FOAMPOST DELAY

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but since it’s our job to keep you up to date with the latest info we regret to inform you that the Copper Foamposite One has been put on indefinite delay.

The rumor mill is swirling with tales of Penny renegotiating his contract, the planned date conflicting with the Jordan 2010 and even snowstorms affecting the planned release date. Regardless to why the only thing that we can say for a fact is that the shoes will not be in stores on the 13th as planned. When we get more information regarding when they are set to drop we ill update you. Via SneakerObsession

Nike Air Max 1 - White / Columbia Blue - Grey

Nike Sportswear is kicking off 2010 in style, as they’ve already previewed plenty of hot designs, but we have one more to add to the list. Shown here is a new colorway in the classic Nike Air Max 1 silhouette. The shoe sports a combination of grey and Columbia blue nubuck, as well as white mesh inserts for ventilation. Finishing off the design is an orange hue which can be seen on the tongue tag, top lacing eyelet, and air max bubble. They have started to arrive at overseas retailers such as End, but should be headed stateside soon.

Air Jordan 1 High Future Sole

D’Wayne Edwards and Jordan Brand put together a limited run of these Air Jordan 1 Highs for their Friends and Family. In fact, according to SC, only 55 pairs were made. The tan/white colorway is accented with a red outsole as well as black laces and interior lining. In addition to the Jordan logo, the Future Sole logo is also imprinted on the lateral heel. I need to become Friends or Family with somebody.
