Nike Air Hoop Structure - Grey - Metallic Silver - White - November ‘09




We have already shown you two upcoming colorways of Nike’s highly anticipated Air Hoop Structure and now we bring you a look at a third version of this intriguing creation. In what seems like an unlikely move, Nike has transformed their Air Structure Triax ‘91 running shoe into a functional basketball high-top. As stated in previous posts, aside from the obvious Air Structure Triax ingredients, this sneaker also seems to borrow a few subtle touches from the Air Jordan VI, with the protruding ankle bubble right at the top of that list. This colorway uses a dark grey upper with white and metallic silver accents, as well as a translucent section of the outsole towards the front of the shoe. Look for these to hit select Nike retailers some time in November and in the meantime, stay tuned for more information on the Air Hoop Structure as it comes. Via FootLockerUnlocked.

Orchard Street x Reebok Fuze 1.0 - Summer 2009


Orchard Street’s affair with Reebok continues with this strappy new lovechild. The Orchard Street x Reebok Fuze 1.0 appears here in an interesting icey green design. They feature straps in lieu of lower eyelets and the laces begin above the velcro. These same straps are repeated on the heel. This is presumably an aesthetic choice, although it might also aide in the fit. They also look to have a nice patterned lining, but we’ll have to wait for more pics to be sure. These are set to drop this summer, so stick with Sneaker News for more. via HS

Nike Dunk High Premium - White - Black - Neon Orange - Fall 2009


With the Blazer taking the lead on Nike releases of late, the Dunk is currently occupying an unfamiliar backseat. While we’re not sure of the exact ratio of releases for the future, joints like these are sure to earn the Dunk its share of shine. These joints only have three colours, but still have alot to offer. The white side panels offer a more dense perforations than the similarly coloured toes, while a cris-crossing stitch pattern on the black rear quarter/heel area adds texture. Throw in neon orange accent and these make for an interesting look. Expect them to drop during the Fall 2009 season. via HS

adidas Women’s Attitude White Patent




The popular adidas high-top basketball offering the Attitude drops in this latest colorway for the ladies. A white patent leather dominates the upper of the shoe as it intermixes with royal blue on the outsole, tongue and pipping. Little patterned details are seen on the Trefoil heel logo and along the heel portion. Available now at Grip.
