Alife Summer 2009 Footwear Collection

As the warm weather approaches, Alife has dropped a fresh new batch of kicks guaranteed to spice up your spring sneaker rotation. We previewed the parachute nylon Everybody Mids last week, but there is apparently much more in store from the cutting edge label. The new collection features some of your old favorites back in nice new colorways. The Everybody High is back with some crisp new looks, featuring two new Americas and a black version with a gum midsole. All three are graced with some interesting patterned laces. Also included in the latest roster are new dark grey and red colorways of the Chukka with solid colored uppers and clean white midsoles. The collection is rounded out by royal blue versions of the Chaser and Shell Toe, as well as a red colorway of the Public Outrage. No matter what your preference may be, they are all in stock now at Standard.

Nike Air Trainer III - Grey - Black - Red

The timing is interesting. Having seen the first Air Trainer II in about eight months earlier today, Nike is dropping a new edition of the subsequent model. The Nike Air Trainer III is back in a colourway that just can’t go wrong: grey, black and red with a touch of white. These also feature an interesting geometrical pattern on the lining that peeks out just a bit around the ankle. If you like the retro high-tech look done up in a classic palette, cop these now on eBay. Photos: 95Soleman

Nike SB Air Trainer II TW

Another new release from Nike SB with the release of the Air Trainer II TW, a model that has seen little limelight since first bursting onto the scene through a Supreme collaboration back in 2007. The mostly black colorway features subtle light-pink highlights on various branded portions of the shoe including tongue, forefoot strap, heel and outsole. Available now at South Korean retailer, Choko.

Nike Air Trainer 1 Premium QK | Red/White Stripes

Matching the recent striped releases of the Air Footscape Woven Tier Zero and other Nike releases, comes the Nike Air Trainer 1 Premium Quickstrike. The sneaker features a red/white striped upper and a nice button closing on the strap. The Swoosh comes in white, all other details, such as Nike logo embroidery on the strap, mid-sole accents and eyelets come in red.

The Nike Air Trainer 1 Premium QK “Striped” will be released on April 25th at Atmos.

adidas 3Way Project Drop 2 | Goodfoot, DQM, Huf, Undefeated

The second group of the adidas 3Way Project is about to be released and the group is about as strong as it could be. The following sneakers were designed by Goodfoot, DQM, Huf and Undefeated. Rather than the first time around, where each store designed one shoe and all of them one collective shoe, the second group worked on four collective sneakers, consisting of the Stan Smith, Nizza Hi, Forum Mid and Samab. The pack is overall very minimalistic and if you take the Forum Mid out of the equation consists of very subtle and easy to wear sneakers, featuring suede and fleece uppers.

The Forum Mid will only be released at the four involved retailers, where as the other three sneakers will also be available at other Consortium retailers around the globe. The sneakers will be released some time in May.
