This Nike Air Jordan III Retro looks like it belongs alongside this year’s Jordan Motorsports pack (the first to be released to retail, in the six year series), but is actually from 2006. It has hand written numbering on the outer heel (count/count) and a single digit on the inner heel that might represent different componentry. Doesn’t really matter, though, since you are not going to wear them anyway. This size 9 sample is available for your collection on eBay.

When it warms up this spring, get yourself ready with this new Nike Dunk High Premium. Up close, the tri-coloured gingham upper is plain ot see, but from afar, the colours sorta blend into a melty blob of Paas. It is a fresh look for the upcoming warm weather, so the white Swoosh and midsole are appropriate, and the gum outsole is doing quite well on spring 2010 Nikes. These won’t be hidden for long, so stick with NewKicksOnTheBlog for updates.

Here are some extra images of a Premium output of the Nike Dunk High SB, set to drop in Spring/Summer of 2010. These would look familiar if you happened to read one of the Nike SB 2010 Preview reports. The colorful Coogi sweater-like graphic is actually wool material, something Nike SB seldom uses, so consider that an added incentive to pick up a pair. We are sure an announcement regarding the availability will be made soon so stay with NewKicksOnTheBlog for the update.

Love them or hate them, the Nike Air Jordan 2010 will be on the way in the near future in a variety of colorways. Now we get our first look at another upcoming colorway. This pair sports a Black patent/nubuck upper with splashes of University Blue on the midsole, branding, lining and contrast stitching. No word yet on a release for these, but it wouldn’t be surprising to seem them on the feet of UNC players as well as Denver Nugget and Jordan Brand player, Carmelo Anthony.

The Nike Rivalry Pack has generated a ton of hype, and rightfully so; designs were exclusive to hip-hop’s heaviest hitters, and who better than DJ Premier, who’s hit some of the biggest hip-hop grand slams, would fit this category? We have only seen raw sketches of the shoe, but check out these images to see a plethora of personal DJ Premier details. Premier’s logo on the outer toe guard, his stage name branded on the rear heels, and a clear ice gum-sole that acts as a window to a clever graphic of 1s and 2s are some of the accessories on Premier’s contribution to the Nike Rivalry Pack. This limited pair Nike Air Force 1 Low are set to drop in tandem with the Nike Dunk High Premium “DJ AM” on January 9th at select Nike Retailers.

Air Jordan Silver Anniversary releases notwithstanding, there is never been a more appropriate metallic sneaker than the Nike Foamposite One in the new copper colourway. Penny Hardaway’s only non-”Air Penny” signature simply needed to be released in his namesake metallic hue, and here is our best look at it yet. In about a dozen super closeup photos, you will get a good sense for how dope the Dirty Copper foam looks against a scored ankle collar and icey translucent outsole.
