This upcoming colorway of the Nike Womens Air Max 1 offers plenty of flavor. Modeled after 80’s ski jackets, this old school color combination of alabaster and dragon red, along with pink side panels and a purple mud guard is definitely vibrant. These sneakers use a combination of leather, suede and nylon.

These shoes are available now for pre-order at Kix-Files for $120 USD. They will be shipped on November 14th.

This is a new design of the Nike Air Max 90 Premium. It has been nicknamed by some stores as the “iD Sample”, because it bears a strong resemblance to the samples you see inside a Nike iD studio all over the world. The shoe upper is deliberately made with a wide mix of materials. Price: £88.99 (€124.59). Wellgosh sells them. Wellgosh calls these sneakers the Nike Air Max 90 Premium Grey.

The shoe upper is made of several shades of grey. The toe box is made of dense mesh material.The toe cap and surrounding mudguard extends to the midsection. The toe box and mudguard are in different shades of grey. The shoe lace region is a separate panel of grey with a pattern of lines on it. The shoe lace is grey to coordinate with the overall look of the sneaker. There are extra sets of shoe lace holes and these are more for a decorative purpose. The midsection is taken up by the high mudguard. The ankle of the shoe has a thick collar made of the same material as the toe box. The back tab at the heel is a piece of leather with the word Nike, and a swoosh. The background has horizontal stripes. The midsole and outsole are in a lighter shade of grey.

Nike seems to be getting all the love these days but Reebok has intensions on changing that Novemeber 8th. Ever since images ofChicago boutique Leaders 1354’s collaboration with Reebok hit the web they became an instant hit and have been burned into minds all across America. Hopefully this post can provide a little relief to those scorching brains out there.

For their first collab with a sneaker company Leaders chose to create a shoe that means a little something to them. The inspiration for these mutli-colored kicks comes from the Chicago Transit Authority.The transparent sole depicts a map of the subway routes in their represented colors. Those same colors were also used to speckle the grey midsole and laces (red and blue laces also included). This shoe also incorporates a variety of materials from 3M to ostrich. The grey upper helps bring some tranquility to the very busy color way.These will be available November 8th at Leaders1354 along with the matching fitted. Via: Leaders1354

Fresh and Fly Customs created these Nike Air Force Ones recently for a female client. The designer posted these images at this Customsnkr.com blog linked here. As the fall turns into winter, we can all look to the Tropic Air Force Ones as a reminder of the beautiful summer season.

Fresh and Fly kept these Air Force Ones simple per the customer’s request. The background is a mixture of yellow and orange to recreate a tropical sunset. In the foreground on the outside part of the left shoe, the designer added the silhouettes of two palm trees. The outside edge of the right shoe features another silhouetted tree with additional palm trees scattered throughout the remaining space. He also used a small sliver of silhouetted beach to set the scene.

While Fresh and Fly has made more elaborate shoes in the past, the Tropic Air Force Ones show his skill at creating simple customs. The test of a good chef is making a tasty but sparing omelet. If this measure is applied to sneaker artists, the Tropic Air Force Ones and Fresh and Fly would pass with flying colors.

The sixth shoe in the Nike Zoom LeBron series is popping up around the internet in lots of interesting colorways. If you are a fan of all black shoes, here’s one for you.

This Nike Zoom LeBron VI features an all black upper and the King James logo near the ankle. There isn’t much information about these sneakers out yet and no official release date. But look for more versions of this shoe coming soon as NBA season begins this week. Via Sneaker Files.

Nike has been trying an array of new things lately including fusing two different models together to create one and adding new never before seen materials to their classics, which we’ll look at in this post. Releasing this spring is lightly colored nylon Dunk High. This nylon constructed Dunk comes in a predominantly white color way with grey accents on the swoosh and midsole. These are scheduled to hit Nike retailers near you in spring 2009, so keep your eyes peeled. How do you like the new nylon Dunks?
