HUF x (PRODUCT) Red x Converse Skidgrip



We’ve already seen the charitable (PRODUCT) Red project join forces with Converse for Lupe Fiasco’s black leather Chuck Taylors and now the two brands will be teaming up again, this time bringing in renowned Cali skate shop, HUF to be their third collaborator. For the latest installment, it will be the Converse Skidgrip getting the (PRODUCT) Red treatment, sticking with the black/red/white color scheme. The HUF “H” covers the black canvas upper with an all-over print and an additional HUF logo tab is included on the side of the midsole. Release info for these is still unknown, but we’ll be sure to keep you posted. Via ASVP.

Nike SB Dunk Mid - Green Bay Packers


NFL training camps will open in just a couple of weeks, so the timing of the kicks pictured above is perfect. The Nike SB Dunk Mid appears above in a palette borrowed from the NFC Central’s Green Bay Packers. Just like the Denver Broncos SB Dunk Lows from back in 2003, these stay true to the team colours by adding white and golden yellow accents to a very dark green upper. These should be available stateside soon and you can grab them today from Shelter. via Colmilludo

Air Jordan 1 Retro High - Black - Shadow Grey - White - September ‘09



This Air Jordan 1 Retro High was part of the Air Jordan 1 fall 2009 preview that we gave you a few weeks back, and now we have some detailed images to admire. This version uses a Black full-grain leather upper with sections of Shadow Grey Elephant print on the toe box, Swoosh and rear panel and matching Grey accents on the tongue branding and laces. The kicks are then finished off by a White midsole and Black outsole, helping to give these kicks a classic look with some nice subtle flavor courtesy of the faint Elephant pattern. Expect these to hit Jordan retailers some time in September, and in the meantime, you can check out a bunch of nice closeups after the jump. Via FootLockerUnlocked.
