So after getting some shots of the Nike SB-MX apparel, we’ve found out what the tease was all about - a four pack of shoes consisting of two Dunks and two Blazers. Images have been floating around for a little while, but now we’ve begun to get the story behind the designs as well as some idea as to a release date. Above is the centerpiece of the pack, inspired by the 24 karat gold Trickstar bike. Supposedly these are limited to 600 pairs, although without some sort of hand numbering, I’m skeptical about those estimates. Check out shots of the rest of the lineup and more info after the jump.

We’ve all been waiting for this shoe to finally drop and now it’s finally out. Yes, Tradition just received the upgraded version of the Infrared Air Max 90 called the Air Max 90 Current. Check them out after the jump.

File this one under bands who should have broken up a long time ago trying to stay relevant. After a couple really terrible albums that appealed to your chubby goth little sister, Alkaline Trio appear to be opting out of the Hot Topic crowd and moving down the mall to Pac Sun with appearances on The Hills and this new collaboration with Nike’s exxxxxxxxtreme lifestyle 6.0 division for landlocked dudes buying surf gear at a chain store. No confirmation as to whether or not these will be packaged with black nail polish and bottled angst, but check out some more photos below.

Once again back it’s the incredible! Fulfilling the dreams of countless collectors, Nike will be issuing a retro release of the Air Penny II. This shoe has been near the top of my personal Holy Grail list for quite some time. Epitomizing that golden era of 90’s basketball shoes, the shots below suggest that this new release will stay pretty true to the original.

So lately Jordan has teamed up with Nike and been droppin’ these hybrid kicks mixed of Jordans and Air Force 1’s. Here we have the AJ3 fusions in the white cement and the black cement that will be dropping this September for all you kiddies in school just in time for Fall semester. Check out the photos after the jump.

Once in a while, it’s nice to find out about a shoe at it’s actual release. Months of anticipation for a hyped up pair can often lead to either a) a somewhat empty “ok, now what?” feeling when you finally snag your pair or b) the inevitable disappointment of missing out on them due to inflated prices and demand. So with all of that said, I’m pretty amped on these checkered Half Cabs that just dropped at In4mation.

DJ Clark Kent, that dude who basically lives at the Nike ID studio has started to give back to e sneaker community. Literally. Just recently, dude was giving away pairs of the three shoes that make up his 112 Pack. As in giving away. For free. He even kicked off his size 13’s when the folks at Vinnie’s Styles had run out. Didn’t make it? Well check out the images below, courtesy of Sneakernews and get your wallet ready for a July release.

I’ve long been a champion of the Dunk. Even as it’s become the hip thing to be “soooo over” this shoe, I still feel that it’s been reinvented by so many different groups and is such a perfect designer’s canvas that the shoe will remain relevant much longer than anyone wants to admit. Don’t fool yourself, you’re not over the Swoosh just yet. Just look at these Vandal inspired Dunks.

First we get the return of the Koston I, and now, as if that wasn’t enough, Etnies and In4mation are resurrecting the timeless Sal 23. As everyone begins to scale back to simplicity, what better time to release a classic understated shoe hearkening back to a very special time in skateboarding? Two colorways are set to drop this weekend and we have some more shots for you just a click away.

Nike SB has yet another hot sneaker that will be hitting their retailers soon. While collecting inspirations from different things. The Nike SB designers chose to design this one off of one of my favorite beers… New Castle Beer.
