Nike Air Flight Falcon – White/Grey-Silver

Joe — Sun, 21 Mar 2010 02:52:20 +0000

The Air Flight Family is pleased to welcome a new member to the family, the Nike Air Flight Falcon. The Falcon appears as a younger generation of the Air Flight 89. The layout of the paneling throughout the upper screams out Air Flight 89, and if you give it a good look you’ll also notice some elements taken from the Air Flight Lite. If you can’t see the Air Flight Lite in the upper you always got the “Flight F” logo on the tongue which is the same as that used on the Flight Lite. To launch the Air Flight Falcon Nike’s released a perfect Spring colorway of White/Grey/Silver with the two darker colors adding some nice contrast to a pure white base.

If you can dig it this bird is ready to fly nationwide through Finish Line for a price of $88.

Joe — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 12:10:18 +0000

We still got about a week and a half left in March but as usual some of next month’s Nike SB releases are already starting to arrive at retailers overseas, giving us a glimpse of what’s to come in the weeks to follow.

Available now at Flatspot are four of the upcoming Nike SB April 2010 Releases. From top to bottom, left to right, you have a two SB Blazers, a SB Dunk Low and an SB Classic.

The first of the SB Blazer’s features a Matte Silver/Midnight Navy color scheme with suede throughout the base of the upper and snakeskin leather on the Swoosh and heel tab. The second of the Blazer’s comes in Black/Light Graphite and ditches the snakeskin leather for a solid suede upper. The SB Dunk Low in Obsidian/Team Red also sports buttery smooth suede on the upper, as does the SB Classic in Army Green which features perforated detailing and a leather Swoosh.

This is only a portion of the Nike SB April 2010 Releases, we’ll keep you posted on the rest of the collection when further details and images become available. For a closer look at each of these four click here.

Joe — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 01:39:12 +0000

After a slight hiatus the Nike RT1 High has returned for 2010 and has seen quite a nice comeback so far in these 3 short months. Nike’s given us an RT1 High for almost every month so far. A Beige/Red model released in January, followed by a Dark Grey/White version in February. A by-month was taken this month but for April the RT1 High hits retailers once again.

For the month of April Nike presents us with a White/Lime RT1 High. The solid white upper, which is constructed from a combination of smooth leather and perforated leather, sits above a pure black mid-sole and a lime outsole. The color accents are very limited but with a bright color like lime on a white base that’s all you really need to get the job done and the eyeballs looking. Kicks/Hi has the sneakers in stock now and additional retailers should be getting them in a few weeks.

Nike Air Max LeBron VII “112 Edition”

Joe — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 00:56:04 +0000

Having all the right connections, in all the right places, is such a beautiful thing. Sneaker connoisseur DJ Clark Kent, who holds a lot of weight in the game and acts as a consultant for brands, is one such person who has the hook ups many of us can only dream about. Not only does Kent get kicks on the regular, but Nike’s handed him the wand numerous times and allowed him to work his magic on various releases, the most popular being the 112 Pack. The pack originally released in 2008 as a three-pack with an Air Force 1 Low, Air Max 1 and Air Trainer 1, followed by a Hyperdunk and Air Force 25.

While the 112 Pack may have come to an end for the general public the same can’t be said for Clark and his closest friends. Once again, one of the perk of having all the right connections in all the right places. Expanding upon his 112 Pack, DJ Clark Kent and Nike put together an extremely limited Air Max LeBron VII for Clark to distribute to his friends and family. The sneakers feature a black nubuck upper, 3M trim, plenty of neon yellow accents and cement print around the ankle. DJ Clark Kent’s 112 logo is fixed to the tongue.

According to TSG, who’s the one that supplied us all with these photos, the sneakers are limited to less then 24 pairs and are not expected to ever hit retail. As sad as that may be it’s unfortunately the truth and straight from the source, so just click here to enjoy the photos and be happy at the fact we atleast got a chance to see em.

Nike Air Trainer SC – White/Navy-Grey-Black

Joe — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 01:47:23 +0000

While the Air Trainer SC 2010 releases are generating a lot of buzz let’s not forget about the sneakers that started it all, the original Air Trainer SC. The shoes which were once the signature trainers of Bo Jackson released throughout 2009 in a number of colorways and Nike still has a few more left to deliver before they call it quits and keep the flow of SC 2010 models going strong.

Arriving at retailers now, such as Finish Line, is this White/Navy-Grey-Black Air Trainer SC. White full-grain leather is used throughout the base of the sneakers with grey along the mudguard. Navy accents appear on the plastic lace loops, on the top portion of the tongue and on a section of the mid-sole with a touch of black alongside the toe and on the upper most lace loops. At 20 years old the Air Trainer SC, with it’s classic styling of yesterday, remains a classic and a top seller in the Nike trainer catalog

If you’re looking to pick up a pair you can do so through Finish Line for $105.

Nike Air Max Hyperize – Black/Royal-White

Joe — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 22:54:32 +0000

The Nike Hyperize just got a whole lot better. The lightweight basketball sneakers were lucky enough to be chosen as the model to help introduce a Air Max 360 sole unit into the hyper-family. As if the Hyperize wasn’t already one of the most desirable sneakers to play in the addition of the Air Max 360 sole unit is sure to put them head and shoulders above it’s counterparts. Imagine the comfort of the Hyperize infused with the cushioning of the full-length Air Max 360 unit in the Lebron VII. It’s a recipe for one of the greatest basketball sneakers of all times.

You may have seen some images of the Nike Air Max Hyperize floating around over the past 3-4 months as they started to arrive at retailers across the pond. Well now it’s official, the sneakers have just landed in the States. The first colorway to arrive at distributors consists of black patent leather wrapped around royal blue flywire. White accents the Swoosh and royal blue jumps back into action on the mesh tongue and within the Air Max 360 sole unit. Seen across the tongue tag is a graphic of a basketball net with a dotted line across it and a pair of scissors above it to signify a team cutting down the net, a moment which is historic during the NCAA Final Four.

If you’re interested in giving the Nike Air Max Hyperize a test run you can grab this Black/Royal-White pair now through Finish Line for $145.

Nike SB “Larry Perkins” Release Date Moved Back

Joe — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 02:45:37 +0000

Premier has just gotten the word from Nike SB that the Nike SB Dunk “Larry Perkins” has been moved back to a later date. We are well aware some distributors are already selling the sneakers, and have been for about a week or so, but according to what Nike SB wants retailers who will be stocking the sneakers will not be releasing them until this coming Saturday, March 20th.

If you recall we’ve caught quite a few previews of these sneakers over the months. At the time we were all calling them the Chirping Bird SB Dunks due to a mechanism inside the tongue which made the sound of a bird when you squeezed it. However, now that the release is nearing further details about the design and theme have surfaced and we’re now learning the whole chirping bird idea has been squashed.

According to AtlantaGotSole, “Larry Perkins is a fictitious character from about 5 years ago. This character was a self proclaimed “Best and most under rated skateboarder alive” he did a bunch of prank calls and fake skate interviews for Big Brother (owned at the time by Larry Flint publications).” AtlantaGotSole is also reporting that the chirping bird noise has been replaced with a ringing telephone sound effect – a reference to the prank calls made by Larry to various skate companies and magazines.

If you’re planning on trying to get yourself a pair of these hit up your local Nike SB retailer to see if they’ll be available in your area come this Saturday. This is a Quickstrike for the month of March, so not every Nike SB distributor will be getting them.

Nike Vandal Hi – Red/White-Black

Joe — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 21:35:17 +0000

Just the other day we were mentioning how the Nike Vandal has seen a rise in popularity as of late. With both eye-catching and subtle colorways being released in the high and low top silhouette, the classic basketball sneakers have defiantly caught the attention of consumers. Not to mention it helps when new version’s keep arriving at retailers, one right after the other with hardly a pause inbetween.

In addition to the Grey/Black-Red Vandal we showed you a few days ago Nike also released this Red/White-Black colorway on the high top silhouette. Giving off an old school Chicago Bulls vibe the Vandal Hi features a leather upper in a combination of red and white with just the right touches of black around the Swoosh, on the lace eyelets and on the heel panel which holds the removable velcro strap in red and white.

Visit your local Nike retailer now to check on availability in you’re area or grab yourself a pair now through Finish Line for $75.

Joe — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 00:01:38 +0000

Following up on some very successful releases in 2009 the Nike Air Flight Condor High returns this year hoping to make the same splash it did in ‘09. Nike’s put together a few new colorways of the Condor High which they plan to drop throughout the year and from what we’ve seen in previews they’ll all be worth taking a look at when the time comes.

For now though let’s dip into this White/Black-Blue version which is the first of the Air Flight Condor High’s to release this year. The base of the upper features white leather on the toe-box, mid-panel and ankle, black nubuck around the toe, on the wing panel and along the top of the tongue, and blue patent leather on the heel panel which includes NIKE embroidered in black. Additional accents of blue appear on a portion of the mid-sole, on the plastic lace loops, and on a small piece of trim along the toe while a silver leather Nike Swoosh adds a little extra pop.

The sneakers are available now at select Nike retailers, such as DrJays, for $100.
