Updated (Availalble Now): Nike Air Diamond Turf Black/White-Teal

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 08:32:00 -0400

Updated: No need to wait until next year, as select retailers are reporting that they received shipments of this colorway today and they are on sale for $105.

The Nike Air Diamond Turf in the original colorway hit store shelves earlier this month and were pretty much gone by the end of that same weekend. If you were not one of the few lucky enough to grab a pair, Nike has a little something up their sleeve that may make up for it.

The Nike Air Diamond Turf in a Black/White-Teal has been spotted on the streets and gives us hope a release in the near future. The shoe feature black nubuck to dominate the upper with white leather pieces just above the mudguard and on the strap. The black sole, which features hints of teal in the front and the back, easily bleeds into the black mudguard. Teal accents are seen throughout the upper including the Nike branding on the heel and tongue. No official release date has been confirmed, but word is that they will hit the streets in Spring 2011.

Fri, 23 Jul 2010 07:00:00 -0400

While the Nike Air Max 90 Infrared is set for a Saturday release most people are not even thinking about any other color ways of the sneaker but rest assured that isn’t the only trick up Nike’s sleeve. This sample version is not set for any particular release date at all but is definitely worthy of your attention.

The shoe is done in mainly brown on its leather and mesh upper with hits of black to break things up just a bit. The shoe also hosts a blue swoosh and white midsole to give the shoe an ounce of pizzaz and make the overall color scheme work. Via cigar0330

Nike SB Dunk High "Civil"

Fri, 09 Jul 2010 20:47:00 -0400

It’s always fun when a retailer themselves are the ones behind designing a shoe. They are essentially the bridge between the brands and the consumers so they know what moves and more importantly what their audience likes. So seeing this Rhode Island skate shop named Civil designed Dunk is nice.

With a color way that almost feels like the Air Jordan 1 (I) Alpha – Tinker Hatfield Edition the lack of orange is the only thing that is of exception to this. Outsole and off white canvas/suede upper is what gives off most of that impression though. This is a very clean color way that ironically will probably be kinda hard to keep clean. Regardless these are set to drop next month to select Nike SB accounts. Via N-SB.
