New Kicks On The Blog - Online Magazine for the Sneaker Culture

Here is a first look at some recently surfaced photos of an upcoming Nike Dunk SB Mid Premium that takes inspiration from what some might consider the greatest invention ever - the television. Taking this concept, the sneaker consists of a simple black/grey/light green colorway using a combination of suede and what looks to be leather behind the Swoosh. For those interested, these are expected to release in the first quarter of 2009.

The Nike Skateboarding team is at it again for 2009, this time with the Nike Dunk SB Low Premium.

This upcoming Nike Dunk SB Low gets a Marge Simpson like colorway similar to a previously released high version. These kicks get a unique crackled leather on the toebox area, and side panel. A mix of light colors include blue, green, and yellow, all sit a top a khaki colored sole. With the Marge and Homer Dunks that have dropped in the past we can only wonder what inspired these kicks.

With the help of Nike’s design team, UK-based designer Carri Mundane created this latest Nike retro sneaker labeled the Nike Blazer Hi Premium “Cassette Playa”. Obviously, this one-of-a-kind sneaker inhibits some rare, unique colors on the upper.

Originally created for the aforementioned designer’s 2008 Spring/Summer runway show, this sneaker is just now releasing due to remastering purposes. It features a peach leather upper with a turquoise blue heel tab. It is also complimented with a purple midsole.

If you are feeling the Nike Blazer Hi Premium “Cassette Playa”, they will be available at the Nike Sportswear 1948 store at Bateman’s Row, Shoreditch and other select Nike Sportswear retailers.

The closer we get to 2009, the more previews we get of what exactly is dropping next year. Most recently, we get a sneak peak of a Nike Air Force 1 Low Premium in a “Grey/Red” colorway. While the shoe consists of only two colors, it is covered in a myriad of textured leather including embossed alligator print around the back of the upper, textured and soft leather and a smooth leather all around and on top of the toe. The red comes in on a nubuck swoosh, laces and the bottom of the sole. Look for these to drop sometime in 2009, hopefully sooner than later.

You remember the beautiful Nike WMNS Blazer Mid Premium from the year long Zodiac story that we saw a number of Nike WMNS shoes inspired by. This Nike Blazer unfortunately is the last of the Zodiac story for this year and it is inspired by the Capricorn. As a result of being a Premium shoe, this Nike Blazer “Capricorn” features an all over Elephant Print on the upper of the shoe that if titled at certain angles will show various hints of Baby Blue. We believe that in addition to the Gray laces seen in the picture above there will also be a pack of Baby Blue laces in the box that matches the accented Elephant Print. You can pick these Nike WMNS Blazer Premium’s up at select Nike retailers now.

Although the pics are surfacing just as the holiday buying season begins and the colors evoke a Christmas theme, these Nike Dunk SB Hi Premium aren’t affiliated with St. Nick. Instead, they’re releasing around next Easter, April 9, 2008 according to SneakerNews, who’ve dubbed these “Soda Cup“. They posted the pic on their blog along with this release date so that we can all get excited. The rich red upper has suede on the toe and rear panel/wing and perforated leather toebox, tongue, side panel and sole. A white swoosh, heel and midsole, green laces and brown lining give all that red a nice balance. We will keep you posted as more pics surface.

Nike Skateboarding made Nike Dunks for Marge and Homer Simpson, what’s to say they aren’t going to do the same for Family Guy. Here is a new pair of Premium SBs slated for 2009 release that bare the name “Quagmire” because the rear panel/wing and side panel are a bright red with yellow embroidered stars just like the shirt worn by the sex-crazed character on Fox. At first glance, this might look like a patriotic pack, so we’ll keep an eye on these to see exactly when the Nike Dunk SB Hi Premium “Quagmire” drop.

One of the shoes we didn’t show you in the Nike SB November 2008 Collection is this Nike Dunk SB Low Premium “Mosquito” that comes in Vanilla, Vermillon Red, and Black Frost featuring a dope speckeled midsole not to mention an insole that has a mosquito on it. Although at this time we’re not quite sure where the story or inspiration for this shoe started from, it’s still a dope Nike Dunk SB Low that offers up some new vibrant colors that we most likely wouldn’t see from other footwear departments in Nike. One of the other parts of this shoe is the contrast stitching on the Dunk Low’s upper that brings back memories of some Nike Dunk SB Low classics.
