Air Jordan 5 "Grapes" (Possible Release Info.)

In 2012, so far, we have seen some, pretty good to eye popping, releases from sneaker brands and it's fair to say that 2013 will be no different. One rumored release of 2013 was the Grape 5. The Grape 5 was originally released in 2006 and was rumored to be released as a pack with the Laney 5's for the summer of 2009 but the release never happened. Sources now tell us that since 2013 will be the 23rd anniversary of the Air Jordan 5, the Grape 5 will in fact be releasing. Once more info. surfaces, we'll be sure to put you on.

La MJC x UNDFTD x Colette x New Balance 1500 "UCLA"

This is going to be one of the more unique collaborations that we've seen in a long time. La MJC is teaming up with Colette, Undefeated Clothing, and New Balance to create a new sneaker. They first used the NB MT580 model for one of them and will be using eccentric colors on a 1500 for the second one. A post of the MT580 is already on this blog and features many different technologies with a red, navy blue, and white finish. This 1500 has a lot of bright colors, a speckled midsole, and even a leopard print insole and accent. They've been dubbed the UCLA's.

Nike Air Foamposite "Stealth"

With the Air Penny line making a firm uproar in the sneaker game, a new foamposite with an unfamiliar look is on the horizon. With a lot of the past foamposite releases, the past themes were either "metallic" or "electro" but now we're seeing something a little different. These stealths offer a clear translucent sole with an all black non-glossy upper. A VERY clean, simple, yet great look. A rumored release date is Black Friday but it has not been confirmed yet. We'll let you guys know once we catch OFFICIAL word.

Nike and Sole Collector have collaborated on the highly anticipated Galaxy version of the Nike Zoom Rookie's.

Domo Genesis x No Idols

I originally wasn't a huge fan of Odd Future's music but, as a fan of hip hop, I'm not cool with being close minded to rap artists without giving their music a chance. So I looked into them a bit and found an extreme liking for Domo Genesis. His latest mixtape, No Idols, features some simple collaborations from mostly Earl Sweatshirt, The Alchemist, and Action Bronson but has VERY hot beats and lyrical content like no other. Check it out, especially the already-fans of Odd Future.

Nike Air Foamposite One "Polarized Pink"

2012 has been a great year, so far, for the Foamposite series. With releases like the Galaxies, Paranormans, and the upcoming Crimson Pros, the Air Penny line is continuing to leave its mark on the sneaker game. This new color scheme is damn sure going to turn a few heads and spark some controversy. Nike is coming out with, not a metallic, but POLARIZED pink version of the Foamposite. There's not too much of a difference between Polarized and Metallic when it comes to these foams but they were still very well done. Release date set for November and will retail for $220.

Nike Air Foamposite "Paranorman"

Since December of 2011, we have seen our fair share, maybe more than hoped for, of over hyped releases with not enough quantities to meet the demand. Concord 11's, Galaxies, etc. the list goes on. Now, we have another blockbuster foamposite on the rise. Nike is dedicating a foamposite to the new upcoming movie Paranorman. Only 800 pairs have been made and you have to enter a contest in order to have a chance to get the pair. With past releases that have had less quantities to meet the demand, we've seen MANY acts of violence as a result. I guess Nike using a contest is to help slow that down. Either that, or to make this release like the Caroline Dunks that came out some time ago.
