Bodega x Saucony Elite G9 Shadow 6 & G9 Shadow 5
Bodega and Saucony have been working together for years creating different color schemes for Saucony's models and have been continuously pushing the limits of sneaker design. Bodega has taken the Elite G9 Shadow 6 and Elite G9 Shadow 5 models and gave them a simplistic suede material but very nice colorways with an "outdoorsy" feel. This collection is now available in limited quantities at very select retailers.
Air Jordan 1 "Royal Blue Python" (Custom)
JBF Customs is back with another fire customization. If you remember back to November of 2012, JBF took the Bred 4 and gave it a Python look by giving the upper a snakeskin texture with lambskin accents; one of the best customs of the year. Now, he's back and he's doing the same with the Royal Blue 1's. JBF is keeping this custom batch in only 3 pairs and have already been set with a price tag of $800 a pair

Air Jordan 3 "Black Cement" ('88 Retro)
Over the last couple of years, a lot of Jordan fans (mostly the younger ones) would complain about the Jumpman logo and it's excessive labeling on the retros instead of the classic "Nike Air" logo from the 90's. I guess JB heard their prayers and have finally answered by releasing the retro 3 with the Nike Air logo on the back. The first release was in the form of the White Cement 3, but unlike the normal retro that retails for $160, this one sold for $200. Yeah ... that's what you guys get for complaining. But, despite the retail increase, it still sold fairly well so JB is planning to repeat with the Black Cement. A release date has not been determined yet but we'll fill you guys in once we discover more news.

After taking a little bit of a hiatus, Ronnie Fieg & ASICS have finished yet another amazing collaboration. Straying away from the usual Gel Lyte 3 model, and instead using the GT-II, Ronnie Fieg uses his traditional suede material and gives this GT-II a "Phoenix Sun"-like makeover. Featuring a deep purple upper with orange accents, this pair of ASICS is already creating a huge buzz in the sneaker game. Stay tuned for release information.
Moncler (Spring/Summer 2013 Collection)
Even though being a strong brand well known for their winter releases/collections, Moncler has developed a new line for the Spring and Summer seasons to show everyone how versatile they can be with their designing ideals. Here is a preview of some lightweight outerwear that consist of some very eclectic designs. Enjoy.
Nike Zoom Stefan Janoski "Neo Turquoise"
If you're looking for a release from the normal pair of sneakers but don't want to go all the way "professional" with a pair of oxfords, then the Nike Zoom Stefan Janoski might be right up your alley. These are like Nike's version of the classic boat shoe, for lack of a better term. These specific ones come in a turquoise and white colorway featuring an upper made of canvas and an outsole made of rubber. These are available now at Concepts, in-store and on their website.
New Balance 1300 "Orange/Yellow"
These have been on and off the radar since the Summer of 2012. Similar to the Day Tripper pack, this 1300 features a color scheme that's either going to make or break the sneaker; but New Balance has a knack for taking crazy colors and syncing them so well that they create a workable colorway. These 1300's feature a copper orange upper with mustard yellow accents. Expect these to hit New Balance retailers some time soon.

Nike SB "Concord" Dunk Low
One of the most popular Nike SB releases of the past few years was definitely the "Space Jam" Dunk. After the very successful return of the Space Jam retro 11 in 2009, Nike SB decided to emulate that shoe and put the same features on a low top Dunk. The idea was so successful, they're going to repeat the same design but in the form of the Concord 11; a low top Dunk with a mix of white mesh and black patent leather on the upper and a translucent outsole. Sounds great to me.
