May 1 · Nike Air Yeezy - Black Pink - Release Reminder + Store List
By now the Nike Air Yeezy has been discussed to death, so we won’t bore you with more of the same information that you’ve been reading about these kicks since they first started appearing on sneaker sites several months ago. What we have for you instead is much more important. Whether you missed out on the Zen Grey pair that dropped a few weeks ago or you are determined to cop them all, you may want to pay close attention after the jump to the select list of stores that will have the Yeezy’s in stock tomorrow. In many cases, you may already be too late, but if you are in the area of any of these shops, it may be worth your while to give it a shot. Happy hunting to all.



A few weeks back, we gave you a sneak peek at the new Air Rejuven8 summer colorways and now that they have begun to pop up in some stores, we finally have a close-up look at both of these striking colorways. The Air Rejuven8 made a big splash over at the Beijing Olympics last summer and now Nike will keep the momentum rolling with some colorful limited edition running options for the summer. One pair features a bright orange hue at the toe that gradually transforms into a vibrant yellow as it moves back towards the heel. The upper cage covers a navy blue sock liner and is met at the base of the midsole with a navy stripe that runs along the top edge of the Nike Free sole. The other pair features a simpler upper with a more subtle gradient grey color scheme with a black sock liner and accents and a bright yellow Free sole. Both pairs definitely have their own charm and can be found right now at Mita.

New Balance WRC576P Tonal Pack


New Balance has this interesting pack set to release in December. The New Balance WRC576 Tonal Pack comes in three distinct colorways using a combination of tonal colors and a variety of materials in each. These shoes are another fusion of a running shoe and a boot with a mixture of patent leather, suede, nylon and premium leather.
The three versions are different only in the main color used - black, green and cobalt blue. The black version is the most laidback, while you can definitely add some color to your wardrobe by rocking either the green or blue version. All three have a white midsole, which provides some stark contrast.

Adidas Originals Stan Smith Weave


With white-on-white being on the hottest color schemes, Adidas is offering those who like the white-on-white look two slick versions of the Stan Smith model. What makes these sneakers stand out is the weave pattern used on the side panels that adds some texture and flavor. Overall, these shoes are some of the cleanest releases we’ve seen from Adidas in a while.

Vans Vault Avalanche Hiking Boots




If you are looking for a unique boot with a wintery look, check out these Vans Vault Avalanche hiking boots. These boots are part of the 2008 Vans Vault Holiday collection and can help your wardrobe get into the holiday spirit.
The most interesting aspect about these boots is the plaid wool that is used throughout the boots. It gives them a really outdoorsy appeal. Also, the black and white shoelaces add to the festive nature of these kicks. You can pick up these durable and interesting hiking boots now at Flauge.

Scooby Doo Dunks


In preparation of his upcoming Scooby Doo Dunks, D@ Prince Customs has posted the first version of the shoes at the Nike Talk thread linked here. The designer has been busy in recent months with customs based on other cartoons including Winnie the Pooh and Dora the Explorer. His sophomore approach with Scooby Doo imagery is going to need to be extraordinary to surpass what he has done with these Dunks.

The left shoe is painted with the words Scooby Doo in purple and orange lettering similar to the opening sequence of the cartoon. The right shoe shows Scooby in action, looking back with fear as a ghost or zombie chases the gang. D@ Prince Customs added his crown logo behind Scooby’s image while writing out D@ Prince Customs on the left heel.

My favorite part of the original Scooby Doo Dunks was the “SD” lace lock designed to look like Scooby’s collar tag. I will write with an update once D@ Prince has made his second version of the shoes but his skills are pretty clear with these custom Dunks.
