With photos from Vince Tsang of On and Beyond, take a look at the 1 of 1, Marcus Troy x Nike Bespoke Air Force 1. Created by blogger Troy in early December, the sneakers use an array of premium materials including a Kevlar toe cap, Waterproof Denim uppers, Rubberized Leather tongue, Turquoise Suede underlay, Metallic silver patent leather tabs and Loopwheeler cotton lining. The shoe itself was partially inspired by the Bun B Space Jam-inspired Air Force 1 (a previous Bespoke release). Head over to MarcusTroy.com to find out more about the process behind this creation.

We’ve seen these Nike Foamposite One kicks on the feet of Wale (who we just interviewed last week), and now we get some detailed shots of what will surely be a widely popular release. Many Nike fans revere this model as one of the great releases in Nike Basketball’s rich history. The bold shape and design that are synonymous with the Foamposite one are made even more evident on this model in metallic copper, which gleams and showcases the contours of the foam material featured on the upper. Clear, icy soles are kept in tact, and the black on the heel, lace area, tongue and midfoot is a nice way to mute the gleam of the copper color. More information on this shoe is coming soon, so stick with Freshness fore more updates.

Case in point is the adidas Highrise, a bold, inspired hi-top that is guaranteed to turn heads next year with its effortless street stylings and range of great color make ups. The full grain, premium leather upper is neatly contrasted with a snake emboss on the ankle collar and around the toe-box and eye-stays while the forefoot and heel straps carry through the urban feel of the model. With the 3-Stripes perforated and subtle branding aside from the over-sized Trefoil on the tongue, the adidas Highrise is destined to become another understated classic. It looks to drop in January 2010, at all adidas Originals stores and select retailers. For those of you lucky enough to be in The UK, France, Germany or The Netherlands, the kicks are now available at Shop.adidas.com.

Our friends over at Sneaker News have posted new detailed images of the most anticipated sneaker release of this Holiday 2009 Season, the Air Jordan XI “Space Jam”. The Air Jordan XI “Space Jam” gained notoriety after Michael Jordan wore them in the movie, Space Jam, and has gone onto become one of the most sought after shoes by sneakerheads and Jordan fans alike. The shoes will be officially released on December 23rd, a couple days before Christmas and will come in a special packaging that includes a newly designed box and two shoe trees to help keep the original form of the shoes. Additionally Sneaker News has created new wallpaper of the Space Jam Jordan’s that is available now, here.

Nike today introduced this superb revision of the Air Force 1 High 08 in metallic silver and hyper blue colorway. The all-silver upper sits on a white sole whilst the and ankle strap and AIR logo, on the mid-sole, get the hyper blue treatment. Sneakerheads will agree, shit doesn’t get hotter than this…

The anticipation is almost over, it looks like the Nike SB Dunk High Premium “Gucci” colorway will be released in a matter of weeks here in the US while our friends over in Korea have already released and sold out of them! These are not to be confused with the DJ Clark Kent x Nike Sportswear Rivals Pack Dunk High Supreme Spark that was a part of the Holiday 2009 Nike Sportswear Collection. These SB Dunk’s are similar to the pair that Nike SB worked on with Girl Skateboards back in 2005 that eventually got scrapped because of various reasons. Nike SB however is not forgetting those who worked on the shoe by placing a “RESN” tongue tab on the 2009 version which is an ode to Girl Skateboard’s Sam Smyth, who used to spray paint that when he was a part of the IBC crew in San Francisco.
