NIKE KD 6 “NYC 66″ – TOTAL ORANGE | RELEASE INFO

The “NYC 66″ title of this upcoming Nike KD 6 is a dead giveaway in terms of the shoe’s inspiration: the August 2011 debut of Kevin Durant at New York City’s Rucker Park, in which the OKC All-Star drained nine of eleven threes, on his way to a 66-point scoring barrage. The low-top kicks are rendered in eye-catching orange throughout the Flywire-infused upper and Zoom-equipped midsole, along with hits of contrast armory slate at the Swoosh, KD logo and outsole. Check out the detailed looks below, and expect the kicks to hit select Nike Basketball retailers like Sneaker Lounge starting August 17th.

Release Date: August 17th, 2013 (Saturday)

AIR JORDAN 4 – “FEAR” | RELEASE DATE

Ready your wallets because the next item from the Jordan Brand is nearing its much-anticipated release. After a couple months of preview shots – including ours here – and build-up, the Air Jordan 4 “Fear” will be hitting stores beginning August 24 in a distinctly tonal black and grey colorway. They’ve definitely picked-up a unique thematic that is not typical for the court-tuned silhouette, but they are actually inspired by the uncertainties that Jordan had while first beginning his rise to greatness before then instilling plenty of the feeling in his opponents as he reached his prime. White overlays and hints of speckles around the midsole complete the look, topped off with a large hangtag. Find more looks below and get ready for this “Stealth Oreo” in just a couple weeks’ time.

Nike LeBron 11 “Parachute Gold”

As audiences prepare for the release of Nike’s eleventh LeBron James silhouette, here we find a new colorway of the anticipated upcoming sneaker. Dubbed the “Parachute Gold” version, this rendition sees the angular sneaker executed with a primarily dark olive upper, and detailed with hints of tonal grey and red. Gold plating makes up the outer layer of the shoe, which divides the upper from the tiffany blue outsole. While the release date for the sneaker has not been officially stated, it’s probably safe to assume the shoe will release with the first round of LeBron 11‘s come October 12. Buyers may look to set aside a budget for the sneaker’s suggested retail price, hinted to be around $200 USD.

AIR JORDAN V RETRO – “BEL AIR”

Before Will Smith fought against zombies, explored a post-apocalyptic world, and policed the galaxy’s alien population, he held down Bel Air, often in a pair of an all-red Air Jordan 5′s. As a nod to the classic sitcom, the Jordan Brand has scheduled the release of a Fresh Prince-inspired design that features the colorways seen on the show’s intro and on more than a few pairs of Smith’s Hammer pants. While the upper is a Cool Grey with a Court Purple midsole, a vibrant mixture of pink and neon give the sneaker a very colorful and unique pattern that is sure to stand-out. The inner liner, Jumpman on the tongue and heel, and #23 also pick-up the theme, with the inside decked-out with the same vibrant pattern. Plenty of extra preview photos are after the click, which should be more than enough to entice you to cop when they drop this October. Until then keep chillin’ out, maxin’, and relaxin’.

Signed off with “23″ detailing at the heel of the shoe, the Cement/Pink-Raspberry colorway will be available at Jordan Brand stockists like Sneaker Politics come August 10 for $115 USD.

REEBOK CLASSIC – PUMP PAY DIRT | AVAILABLE NOW

 

Reebok is out to prove that new doesn’t necessarily mean better with the re-release of their first-ever Pump-infused cross-trainer, the Pump Pay Dirt. The drop comes as the NFL season is just starting to heat-up, as players don their pads for some inter-team hardknocks, just as they were back in 1992. But, just because they may be tuned and tough enough for wear by the top players on the gridiron with an armor-like cage around the upper, a mid-foot strap, and a rugged midsole, these also pack enough style for the street thanks to its mixture of white, grey, and blue colorway. The Classic Pump technology also provides a custom fit for either scenario in addition to the tonal strap and laces. Available now in very limited numbers at select retailer, like Jimmy Jazz, Villa, DTLR, Pickyourshoes.com, City Gear, andReebok.com for $110 so act now before they go back in the vault.

Release Date: August 2, 2013 (Today)

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE X JORDAN BRAND – AIR JORDAN III “LEGENDS OF THE SUMMER – UNIVERSITY RED

Justin Timberlake‘s special collaboration with the Jordan Brand resulted in a very limited edition set of kicks, including an all University Red pair of Air Jordan III’s that he wore during his “Legends of the Summer” tour. It took them a while, but a set has finally appeared online for sale via eBay in impeccable condition with seemingly no marks on their pebbled leather and suede upper or the smooth and glossy leather on the toe and heel. A white inner lining adds a strong contrast to the look, but the addition of a “Suit and Tie” inspired insole that commemorates the track performed with Jay Z, who joined him on the tour, really makes these a special buy. See more looks at the Air Jordan III “Legends of the Summer” after the click because they were already snatched up and we won’t see them again until their wider retail release later this year.
