Jordan Brand’s newest training silhouette, the Pre-Game XT has hit shelves, including Nike Store. The Alpha Trunner excited many readers with its crossover appeal. Will this hoops-specific trainer do the same?

Black suede and mesh combine on the upper to make for a breathable, lightweight build. The Varsity Red stripes along the midfoot not only make for a utilitarian look, but also serve as lace hoops for the matching red laces. The Jumpman along the side and the outsole use the same Varsity Red hue.

Reebok has released a slew of Pump Omni Lite and Insta Pump Fury colorways over the years; however, this “Respect” Pack, which includes a new colorway of each model, is one of the better sneaker groupings from Reebok in awhile. The color scheme of both sneakers pays tribute to Michael Chang’s Court Victory Pumps.

The Insta Pump Fury  comes in an intriguing yellow construction with a green checkerboard pattern throughout the midfoot area. The same pattern is seen on the Pump Omni Lite’s side panels and inner side of the tongue. Look for this Reebok “Respect” Pack to hit stateside Reebok retailers soon.

With the coveted Nike Air Max 1 White/Varsity Royal releasing last month and the Nike Air Max 90 Infrared set to release later this month, there is no doubt that Nike has been, and will be, bringing the ‘heat’ when it comes to the Air Max line.

This pair, found via eBay, is an unreleased sample of the Air Max 1 featuring colors, patterns, and materials we rarely see. The pair features white mesh on the toe box and black leather around the entire shoe. In addition to the uneven black and white striped print used on the side panels, a purple inner liner, purple outsole, and silver Swoosh are also used to grab attention. A grey midsole, along with black laces, finish off the shoe. It is unknown why Nike didn’t released this pair of Nike Air Max 1s, but for the price they sold for on eBay, maybe Nike should reconsider.

Nike Air Diamond Fury – Ken Griffey Jr. Ken Griffey Jr. was given his first signature shoe, the Nike Air Griffey Max 1, for the 1996 season, but the year prior came one of the greatest moments in his career.

During the 1995 season, Ken Griffey Jr., Derek Jeter, and several other premier Nike athletes wore the Nike Air Diamond Fury in the big leagues, but Griffey was given a special colorway complete with his number stitched to the side and an unmistakeable “JR” logo hit on the tongue. With the recent success of the Air Griffey Max 1 and Swingman Remix, can’t say that I would complain if these made their way out of retirement.  What are your thoughts?

Two Dynasty Highs have been spotted overseas in this very bright “Multi Dot” Pack, which uses about every color in Nike’s  available palette.

Both shoes show multicolor dotted patterns on their respective quarter panels. The first pair uses black patent leather on the toe and midfoot, while white leather fills out the toe box and ankle. The second shoe flips those two colors, and its dotted section uses heavy amounts of blue and green dots.

This month, Bespoke Nike Air Force 1 creations have made an appearance nearly every week. This week is no exception as we bring to you a very simple, yet eye catching colorway of the Bespoke AF1 designed by Gerald Morales.

These particular Air Force 1 has been constructed using a two-toned denim upper. As the pictures below illustrate, a lighter denim is used on the side panels, while a more distinguished darker denim is used throughout the toe box and heel. Black is used as a secondary color on the midsole, tongue, swoosh, and inner lining. Finally, a use of gold on the lace eyelets, stitching, and branding add accents to this inherently dark shoe. Lastly, the shoe pays tribute to the 21 Mercer Nike Store with a 21M embroidered on the heel tab.

The highly-anticipated Air Jordan 9 “Citrus”, a sneaker many of you have coveted since early spring, made its way to retailers today. However, the “Citrus” colorway is not the only new Air Jordan 9  on the market currently.

With that said, Jordan Brand recently released another Air Jordan 9 in a white/turquoise/lemon-metallic silver color scheme. If you’re feeling this Air Jordan 9, don’t get your hopes up too much as this particular colorway is only available in kid sizes. It contains a primarily white leather base with lemon and turquoise accents in the form of the laces, inner lining and Jordan branding. Lastly, a  metallic silver midsole offsets the entire base. Now available at Extra Butter among other retailers.

The Air Jordan 2010 may be the weapon of choice for All-Star Dwayne Wade, but opinions and sales have been less than favorable for the shoe overall. Jordan teamed up with Undertow, a Portland trio of artists, to create an aquatic themed colorway for an auction supporting charity.

The Undertow x Air Jordan 2010 collaboration features a white leather upper. Light blue highlights are used on the laces, footbed, heel, and outsole. The forefoot, heel, and inner liner make use of a white and grey pebble pattern that seems to be symbolic of sea pebbles that are found on the bottom of the ocean. “Undertow” branding can be seen on the laces, near the lace eyelets, and on the insole.

With only one pair being produced of this very limited shoe, would this be a colorway of the Air Jordan 2010 that you would be interested in?

The Nike Zoom Hyperfuse has been seen on the court a number of time this NBA offseason, though it’s yet to hit stores. With Summer hoops season fast approaching, Nike is set to roll out a plethora of colorways of this lightweight sneaker, as seen the five color-ups here.

Two make use the paint splatter ankle that we’ve seen on previous models, including the pair designed for the World Basketball Championships this Summer. Bright green and red are available with this design. Also seen is a deep purple shoe that will look to capture the love consistently shown for “Eggplant” Nikes. Finally, white and obsidian, and black and red are paired on the final two. More colorways are sure to appear soon, meaning this sneaker could stretch well in to the next time we see more of our favorite NBA super stars.

The Air Jordan One6One7 has made a number of Kicks On Court appearances on the feet of Mike Bibby, but not much else been seen of the low top .5 sneaker. For Fall, at least two more colorways are scheduled to release.

Both utilize black patent leather heels and toes, as well as leather uppers. The first pair uses a white base and midsole, and relies on a clear outsole, giving a “Concord”-esque quality to them. Check out our previous look at these of this one for more looks. The other pair replaces all of the above’s white areas with black, though it still relies on a white backing for its clear outsole. Both will hit shelves this Fall, just in time for the 2010-2011 hoops season.
