One Of The More Stranger Colors.

On the way to a record third Dunk Contest title victory, Nate Robinson sported some Nike Air Max Hyperizes in the New York Knicks’ white, orange and blue. That marked the official debut of the revamped basketball shoe, and was one of the first few colorways we had seen. Now we’re getting a look a release-ready version of this special Hyperize, which is set to release in June of this year.

Silver leather is slathered all over the toe and midfoot areas and looks to be reflective, similar to the material used on the Hyperdunk “Kobe Bryant x Aston Martin DB9″ we saw yesterday. The midsole, heel cup and tongue are all done in a similar silver color. To contrast the simple build, Volt appears on the outsole and tongue accents. The Hyperize is one of the best performing sneakers to date. With the added bonus of the full-length Air Max, can they get even better?

ALIFE

The Alife Public is now available overseas in two new colorways. The boat shoe is dressed similarly to the Chuck Naval Leather, as the two silhouettes share many design cues.

Two pairs have been designed. The first uses black leather for the upper, which has a design similar to the Vans Era. The other pair is done with white, instead. On the liner and around the collar of both pairs, tan leather is in place. Both also utilize a white sole with a red heel. On the upper, “AL 1999″ is written in white script font along the quarter panels.

Nike SB's

Yesterday, we notified you of Nike adding the“Formal” Pack to its NikeiD options for the Dunkmodel. However, if you rather find a fresh release rather than making your own, we have just spotted a very nice Dunk that is now available at select retailers including Flatspot.

This particular SB Dunk features a very classy, subtle colorway to say the least. Its beige and dark chocolate colored base is comprised of suede and leather. It also possesses some nice contrasting attributes such as a silver swoosh, red inner lining, a white midsole with beige stitching and a dark chocolate outsole. As stated earlier, you can now purchase this SB Dunk at Flatspot. Click here to view additional photos.

Spring Time Fresh

In January, we alerted you to two GT-II colorways that Asics had in the works for a spring release. We are now able to inform you that they have begun to surface at retailers. Each color-up is bright-one is orange and the other purple. Mesh and nubuck are interspersed with one another to cover the uppers. Lastly, each shoe sports crazy color blocking on the bottom of the outsole.

Flip the post for plenty of pictures of each shoe and head to Hanon or other Asics accounts to grab either pair.

Lagoon-colored accents are seen on the side panels (Half Cab branding) and the line design just above the aforementioned sole. Other features include monochromatic shoelaces and a black inner lining.

Crazy Face Vs. Cute Face.

Bossip reports:

Nicki Minaj started out talking to FADER Magazine about her Beam Me Up Scotty mixtape track, “Itty Bitty Piggy” and ended by revealing the secret behind her funny facial expressions.

“That’s the craziest one I’ve written yet. I sound like a Martian. I just really didn’t give a d*mn, just being crazy as I could possibly be…I don’t know where I fit in the spectrum of rap yet, I think now I’m kind of proving myself, but before, people thought I was more of a sex symbol or wannabe sex symbol. Now they’re seeing. That’s why I make the goofiest faces, I don’t want people to think I’m up here trying to be cute. I’m trying to entertain, and entertaining is more than exuding sex appeal. I don’t think that’s fun. I don’t find it fun watching someone trying to be sexy. It’s wack. I’m trying to just show my true personality, and I think that means more than anything else. I think when personality is at the forefront, its not about male or female, its just about, who is this weird character?”

SUPREME is coming!

Seen in its 2010 Spring/Summer collection, Supreme has put its nunchucks into live action by setting up a demonstration at the famous Anderson’s Martial Arts Academy in New York. Check out the video for the full action.

Nike Hyperdunk “Kobe Bryant x Aston Martin DB9″

Roughly two years, the Nike Hyperdunk made its official debut. It has since become one of the most populars basketball sneakers ever, so it’s only fitting that one of the more popular viral videos ever was used to promote it. To pay tribute to the internet phenomenon featuring Kobe leaping over an Aston Martin, Nike has designed a limited run of 500 Hyperdunks.

Reflective silver leather is used on the toe and midfoot areas, similar to the car in the video. The Flywire quarter panels don a darker grey color. Red leather is used for the liner, and the underside of the tongue includes a patch with Bryant’s signature on it. The tongue logo features a carbon fiber-look emblem with the Aston Martin wings and the Lakers’ guard’s name. These will release later this Spring, but you can grab a pair now at OSneaker.

Kanye West: - Coldest Winter

KANYE WEST "Coldest Winter" Directed by: NABIL "ITUNES link below" from nabil elderkin on Vimeo.

VIDEO AVAILABLE ON ITUNES: http://itunes.apple.com/us/video/coldest-winter/id355707021

Acclaimed director Nabil Elderkin helmed the visual for one of Kanye West’s most personal records “Coldest Winter” off of his 2008 effort “808s & Heartbreak”. According to Elderkin the visual has been of his greatest challenges so far since the right visual medium had to be chosen without Kanye who did not partake in the editing process. For his general approach to the concept Elderkin also had to take the artist’s emotional background into account:

“It’s pretty minimalistic. It’s slow and very visual. I just wanted to catch the vibe of the song and not get too literal. Because the lyrics are very close to Kanye and go much deeper than the video goes, obviously hearing the song you know it’s very emotional.”

‘Ye approved the result and even unleashed a revamped version of the track to accompany the “haunting” visual. Check it out.

Vans....

Vans Classics will release of a few of the Vans, well, classics in a new material treatment for their Spring lineup. 3 separate silhouettes are included in the “Chambray” Pack, and all should hit retailers sometime in March.
The Sk8-Hi makes an appearance in black chambray, with matching canvas helping out on the heel, toe and midfoot areas. An Old Skool has been given the same material and color treatment, including the white contrast stitching. A blue Old Skool was also created, while an Era rounds out the pack. That shoe utilizes canvas on the toe and heel as well, with the pack’s namesake textile filling in elsewhere.

Nike Structure...

Towards the end of 2009, we showed you this Air Structure Triax ‘91 and told you to look out for it at the beginning of this year. Those of you that commented stated that it was a very fresh colorway. If you are one of those who took a liking to this sneaker, it is now available at Standard for $108.
This Air Structure Triax ‘91, which seems to feature a colorway that has been seen on a Nike Air 180, is ideal for the spring season. The predominately white leather and mesh base is complimented by green blade accents on the top laceholders, sole and tongue/heel panel branding. It also possesses a royal blue outsole giving it a nice color contrast to say the least. As stated earlier, you can purchase a pair now at Standard.

UNDFTD x Converse.

UNDFTD posted a follow-up featuring a femme fatale in their sneakers after the successful release of the Converse Poorman Weapon. In these photos, she is also sporting their MA-1 Flight Jacket-another piece in the overall collection.
This spread is another great presentation of UNDFTD product to stand alongside their earlier helicopter lookbook. Flip the post for more photos.

Vans Era - Ripstop

A new make-up of the Vans Era has hit End. This particular shoe combines both ripstop on the toe and heel and canvas on the mid panel. The combination of these materials ensures a durable shoe as well as a pleasing textural contrast. As for color, the upper is tonal and employs a muted palette of grays and beiges.
Finishing touches on the shoe include metal eyelets, gray laces, and yellow stitching in the lining. Click the jump to have a few looks at the shoe as well as a macro shot revealing the contrast between the ripstop and canvas sections.

The green color way is so clean, I like a lot.

We have not reached it yet but Spring does shine around the corner. As the winter-to-spring seasonal change progresses, we can all expect sneakers to lower their cuts and brighten their colors. The Nike Sweet Classic SL is an exemplar of these adjustments.

Two colorways of the shoe are available and both feature base-white uppers with bright (green or red) accenting colors. Both colorways are available at Kasina. Soon enough you’ll be able to let your ankles breathe and watch the sun reflect off your icy whites. Click the jump for a look at the red colorway.
