Nike Air Penny II (2) Retro - Atlantic Blue - New Photos
We know that the Nike Air Penny II Retro is on the way in its ‘home’ atlantic blue and white makeup, and now here are a couple more shots. The black and neon green Sole Collector 5th Anniversary joints are unquestionably dope, but you can’t go wrong with the original. These were the first colourway released from Penny Hardaway’s second signature series, back in fall 1996. The blue parts are suede, while a white fin extending from the midsole creates an elegant swooping effect. Still no word on a concrete release date, so stick with Sneaker News for updates. via LDRS1354

Nike Blazer High - Tecmo Bo - Kansas City Royals - Fall ‘09
As we were once told many years ago by the legendary Bo Jackson ad campaign, it appears that there isn’t much that Bo doesn’t know. Nike has recently been paying tribute to Bo left and right with his inclusion in the recent Trainer 1 mania, as well as the upcoming release of the OG Air Trainer SC, the updated Trainer SC 2010 and the Tecmo Bo Los Angeles Raiders edition of the Air Trainer II. Now that football and training have been covered, Nike is paying tribute to the superhuman Bo Jackson’s days as a baseball player for the Kansas City Royals.
This Bo-inspired Blazer High features a light blue/royal blue Royals color scheme with a mesh tongue and a solid blue midsole. The most noteworthy attributes, however, have to be the baseball Tecmo Bo character on the tongue label and the pixelated graphics that appear across the side of the upper. If you are looking at these right now and losing your mind, please note that these kicks are expected to follow the Raiders Trainer II and will hit select retailers some time this fall.
