The sneaker once again comes as a Frankenstein design-pulling from the likes of a handful of classic Air Jordan models from the past (Specifically ones that Spike Lee was involved in the promotion of). Get a more complete look at the black/grape ice/white Jordan Son of Mars Low (Release date April 27th) via the official images waiting for you after the jump.. 1 on 5 isn’t exactly an ideal basketball matchup (even Michael Jordan himself needed guys like Jud Buechler to have his back), but this new?Sacramento Kings-leaning Air Flight 89?has those odds seeming just about perfect (until the Military Blue IVs touch down, anyway). Check them out in greater detail after the jump and stick with Sneaker News for more info on this House of Hoops release.

First and foremost – we’re happy to hear that Kevin Ware’s surgery was a success. Terrible news for a young kid to go down with such a horrific injury, so we wish him and his family the best. The upcoming Air Huarache retros are the latest example where purist sneakerheads are happier with the classic form than recent Free-soled remixes, but if you’ve been following Sneaker News this year, you realize that?Nike Sportswear’s barefoot-mimicking lifestyle efforts?are?indisputably?crushing it from the other end of the timeline. From the all-new Inneva Woven to fresh Free Runs 2 and 3 at the same time and the Footscape Motion Chukkas, NSW’s grasp on stylish and functional footwear is further affirmed with the all new Nike Free Forward Moc+. After the regional release that went down last weekend, the Nike SB Dunk Low “Finally” from the FTC team is heading for a wider retail release this Saturday, June 1st. The shoe has a very “Plum” feel to it, a palette that began as a Nike Dunk Low only to later transition onto the Nike SB Dunk High.
These will be given out on a first-come first-served basis so you’d better not slack on this releases because you’ll be muttering What the (another four-letter word) after these disappear quickly from stores shelves. Another view of the socks below, so take a look and let us know if this is the best Kobe release of the year!. Foamposite mania will take a minor turn in the road as we Nike Sportswear pauses the One/Pro releases and re-introduces the Nike Total Foamposite Max on the final day of the Fall 2011 season. The Nike Air Total Foamposite Max was one of Tim Duncan’s signature shoes back when Nike employed up-and-coming superstar big-men Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett, and by the time the shoe was retroed in 2005, Duncan had already parted ways with the Swoosh and joined the three-stripes campaign. With Nike Sportswear’s constantly expanding range of casually-oriented sneakers pushing their way into all corners of the sneakerhead culture, a few models are bound to be overshadowed and perhaps even forgotten. ?It hasn’t been too terribly long since the?Nike Toki?released in a new colorway, but it would indeed take something special from this vulc-soled chukka midtop sneaker to get it back atop the Swoosh lifestyle rankings.
