Nike Air Presto – Blue + Black – April 2009

What is the difference between a classic and an old model? The classic can be reshaped and reformed into many new roles and designs, while the old is doomed to disappear into the mists of time as new models come and go.

Nike’s advantage is the loyalty of its fans, and the timeless nature of its designs. When you pick a Nike you know that what you get is more than a one-time curiosity, but a work of art that has the capacity to be reborn under a different name, with a different look, but the same spirit.

With its fluid and aerodynamic design, impressive lines and contours, and simple but effective colorways, the Nike Air Presto – Blue + Black – April 2009 is just another such classic from Nike, reincarnated and reborn from the glory of the past. It’s modern, and a classic at the same time. To claim your own share of this gem, we suggest that you head to atmos sometime this April. Via HighSnobriety.

Air Jordan I Retro High Strap – White – Brown – Black

We just showed you the Easter “Basket” Weave Pack Premier Highs and thanks again to Jason White we are able to bring you this high strap. With all the catalog images that have leaked, this particular model in this color way has never been seen before. HOWEVER, this color way has been used before on an Air Force 1 Low, which interestingly enough featured pretty much the same color blocking and some of the same materials. White pebbled leather upper, Black swoosh and midsole. The big difference maker between these and the “Boxing” Air Force 1’s is the toe box, which is brown. Besides the fact they are scheduled for a fall 2009 release no other background info is available at this time. (more…)

Air Jordan I High Premier – White / Metallic Platinum

And we’ll end this week the same way we started it, by dropping some more Jordan I news. Catalog images of this I first surfaced back in November when we showed you a part 2 to Jordan Brand’s scheduled summer releases. Now you’re able to get a clearer idea with this picture. This Jordan I High Premier will be part of an Easter themed pack. It comes in a metallic white upper with a newly re discovered woven pattern on the toe box and side panels. All which sits on a nice gum bottom. Releasing alongside this Hi in the Easter “Basket” Weave Pack is a Velcro Low with essentially the same concept. Tech info after the jump. VIA: Sneakerfiles

Alpha Omega Air Jordan I High Pack – 2009

About this time last week, we reported on the news of a Jordan 1 High Pack inspired by the 1989 movie, Do The Right Thing. Today we bring you news of another Jordan I High Pack to be released in 2009. It will be called the Alpha Omega Pack. This is the second Alpha Omega pack and the second to feature a Jordan I. Although the Pack was dubbed with an important sounding name, we don’t really know the true story behind them. Both the color ways are from 1985 when the I first released. The Lakers themed color way, made of grand purple, varsity maize, and white, actually comes from a sample that never made in into production. It is one of the rarest Jordan Samples to date. Black and Grey pair will be identical to its 1985 GR version. The Alpha Omega Pack is set to hit shelves in September 2009, stay tuned for more info. VIA: TSG

Air Jordan I Retro High – Infrared


When the first pictures of the highly anticipated Infrared I hit the web it was somewhat hard to see what they really looked like. Nevertheless, everyone wanted to know why they were so shinny, and some even questioned JB’s quality. But thanks to a Kenlu forum member, we now present you with better images. Set to take off early next year the Infrared I features a full Infrared patent leather upper with what looks to be black leather around the toecap, on the side panels and around the heel. Theres still about a month a half to go before release date, giving you undecided minds plenty of time to decide. Tech info after the jump.
