Throughout the past couple of weeks we have been featuring all sorts of previews and pictures of the Pumps part of Reebok Pump 20th Anniversary Collection, also known simply as Pump20. Each of the 20 Pumps in the collection all feature some very unique and stylish designs and do to the hype surrounding them a few other Pump styles have released other the radar, such as this Reebok Pump Omni Lite designed in collaboration with X-LARGE.
The sneakers are not part of the Pump20 collection, however they are still another tribute to the 20years since the Pump technology has been introduced. For the collaboration with X-LARGE on the Pump Omni Lite the duo went with a white and black colorway which features mostly white leather on the front half and lace area of the sneakers with black leather and black nubuck holding down the mid section and heel area. The plastic pieces on the upper have a gradient effect which goes from white to black making the sneakers appear as if the whole upper has a gradient design. XL and Reebok branding on both included on the heel section of the shoes with XL in a dark shade of blue and Reebok in an eye catching light blue.
If your a true Pump fanatic, such as DJ Senatore, the worlds largest Reebok Pump collector with over 160+ pairs, and your not just caught up in the hype of the whole Pump20 campaign, you can pick up these Pumps now through X-LARGE. If your interested in just checking em out, well then click here to peep the pics.

Within the coming weeks Nike will be dropping two brand new colorways of the Court Force as part of their Holiday 2009 collection. Each of the two sneakers use three-tone colorways with one pair in grey/black/red and the other in white/black/blue. A grid pattern which has been included into the Court Force in the past is seen around the ankle of shoes. The grey/black/red pair in my opinion is pretty dope, i could do without the grid pattern but the general color scheme reminds me of the Yeti Nike Dunks.
Click here to check out a solo shot of each sneaker and watch for both to hit select Nike retailers soon.

Chien-Ming Wang, the Tawian pitcher for the NY Yankees is a well known sneaker enthusiasts who has personally had the chance to collaborate with Nike in the past. In their efforts to promote the Trainer 1 to the worlds greatest athletes Nike has hooked Wang up with his very own PE model. The sneakers feature you usually Yankees-esque colorway of navy blue and white with accents of silver on the mid section of the upper breaking up the color. The heel section sports a traditional NY Yankees pinstripe design with Chinese characters printed on the heel in navy blue.
To other understanding the Chien-Ming Wang x Nike Trainer 1 PE will not be releasing to the public at this time so for now just click here to enjoy the pics.

We never presented to you detailed photos of the Atmos x Reebok Pump 20 so if your still interested in getting a closer look at the sneakers here they are. As we previously reported Atmos dressed up their edition of the Pumps using a black leather base with purple accents on the plastic pieces on the upper and on a section of the mid-sole which eventually fades to white towards the front of the shoes. Further use of white is used on the red of the mid-sole and in the form of a speckle design on the Pump unit, release value unit and on a portion of the mid-sole and heel cap. Included with each pair is three set of laces; white, purple and neon green, with the usual Pump keychain tag in purple.
The Atmos x Reebok Pump 20 will officially be releasing in just a few hours on Saturday, November 21st, 2009 at Atmos Tokyo. Click here now to check out the detailed shots.

How ironic is this. I just so happen to be wearing a Commonwealth fitted, at the time in which im presenting to you some photos of the Commonwealth x Reebok Pumps.
These buttery soft Pumps feature a suede upper in light grey with silver 3M on the tongue and tongue box. A darker shade of grey appears on the heel cap and a portion of the mid-sole with the rest of the sole unit in white. As for accent colors there really are now within the upper besides for the various shades of greys and silver creating bit of a contrast. The accenting colors actually come in the form of 4 pairs of shoe laces which allow you to mix and match to your desired color choice. Finishing off the shoes is a C’MON hit on the release value and a Commonwealth Pump keychain tag.
To celebrate the release of the Commonwealth x Reebok Pump there will be a release event held tomorrow, November 19th, 2009 at the Commonwealth Norfolk location. Music will be provided by producer L.E.S. (Illmatic, Nastradamus, etc.) Drinks and hors’ dourves will be served and Commonwealth will be handing out raffle tickets for free giveaways. In addition with every purchase of the Pump20 Commonealth will be giving away Commonwealth Pump 20 tees.
