Nike Vandal High GS - Batman Inspired



Last week, we showed you a look at a Superman-inspired Air Classic BW and it appears that Nike isn’t finished paying tribute to some of our favorite superheroes. Obviously, you can’t have a Superman shoe without a pair of Batman kicks too. For the Batman edition, Nike chose to use the Vandal High, decking it out in an official Caped Crusader colorway. The shoe features a dark grey upper with black leather piping around the edges and a section of shiny black patent covering the entire heel panel. To finish off the Batman color scheme, there are some minimal yellow accents on the ankle strap and tongue label, as well as the contrast stitching on the midsole and the outline around the Swoosh. Unfortunately, these will only be available in boys’ sizes, so if you have kids or very small feet, you can pre-order a pair now on eBay.

Reebok Pump Omni Lite - 7 Deadly Sins Pack





There are seven deadly sins, but if you’re releasing a pack of shoes with those as the inspiration, you can’t divide them up evenly. So, here we see the first three of Reebok’s Pump Omni Lite 7 Deadly Sins pack: electric yellow, purple and azure. These tonal releases represent greed, pride and sloth, respectively. Each has a mix of suede, leather and a striped material that looks to be corderoy on the upper. The other sinful sneakers are set to drop in August and September, but EastWest Worldwide has these three in stock now.

Nike Air Max 90 - Cool Grey - Hyper Blue




Nike continues to keep coming up with fresh looks for the classic Air Max 90 model. This pair uses a combination of suede and mesh on the Cool Grey upper with some contrasting White touches on the Swoosh and eyelet panels. Additional White hits can be found on the tongue, lining and laces and a striking Hyper Blue hue covers the midsole and a few other choice spots. These kicks have a real crisp look that arguably has the beloved shoe looking as good as ever. If you’re feeling these, you can scoop up a pair now on eBay. Via 95Soleman.
