Back in January of this year, you saw a Sneek Peek into the retro Nike Air Current. Much like its father, the Nike Air Flow, it seems to be following well in it’s footsteps to becoming another great retro. A better retro? Maybe, but since it comes from a similar mould, one would be at ease to surely think it will be just as good. Well, above you see the other two color-ways from this photo. This now completes seeing all four in real life and now puts to rest “Are they all coming out?”. Looking at the shape and materials will most likely put a smile on fans faces. Even though they look thicker than the OG, I actually think it’s a welcome. At the moment there really isn’t much in the negative to say about them…

No other release information is available at the moment, but seeing them at the recent New York Nike event means they may be coming very soon. In always trying to give you the most accurate color reproduction, I have gone ahead and edited the white balance in these. The brown is suppose to be all black, and not this off brown or anthracite color shown here. In any case, I’m sure a lot of cult followers of this model are very excited about these. Now the question is, “Which ones will be a TZ release”. I’ll take all four BTW.

Finally, we get another Sneek Peek to Solebox’s next collaboration with ASICS. First seen and described by me in November’s Sneek Peek, it pretty much lives to what I said. The new thing coming into play is the orange based solebox logo laces included with the blue pair. Definitely gives it a bold pop to the overall shoe’s color blocking. Also, note the PERF toe-box. Something most collaborations have been including and favoring over the mesh counter part these days; Hanon, Patta, etc. No other INFO in regards to this stellar shoe and it’s release, nor is there any new photos of the SAGA partner…

The next release from Ronnie Fieg and his ever growing catalog of ASICS collabs is this, some what, salmon colored GTll. It was first fully seen when Theophilus London tweeted an image of them and the response was mixed in the community. Yesterday, another image released by Ronnie himself on his instagram received 489 likes. That image was the one above, but cropped. So for your viewing pleasure, I have included the full image. No other details available….

J.Crew doesn’t seem to be putting any hault on their 1400 collaboration with New Balance. Last year they introduced six new colors to the model. This doesn’t include their Classic Pine and Navy color-ways from 2010 which puts it at eight different C/W’s to choose from. In 2012 we get two more added to the ever growing catalog in the colors Cranberry and Blue Sky. Hues perfect for the coming Spring that give you that POP on your feet. You can actually purchase these now in certain sizes (Some are shipping in February). Price is the same at $130.00 + $8.95 shipping. Check out a few more images until I receive the Cranberry pair…

As we get closer to the official date for the launch of Burn Rubber’s New Balance MT580 ”Workforce” pack, a video is released. It’s a small trailer nod to what the shoes are based on. You can also read an interview here that has Rick Williams explaining the story behind the concept of the shoes a bit further. Enjoy…

Back in October 2011, Hikmet of Solebox released some on-foot images of this Saucony Shadow 5000 pack. It was right after Solebox’s “Three Brothers” launch. Many thought it was just images of those colored-up in photoshop. Well, guess they were wrong because here are one of two top view images of both color-ways. No info yet as to what is the deal with them, but if you live near Solebox the samples are there for your viewing pleasure. Check out the second image and a third that shows the gum bottom of the Pink Devil pair…

The new year is already being rev-uped by New Balance as they introduce a new custom shoe to their online palette. It’s non other than the durable and high-mileage trainer, the New Balance US993. The heritage silhouette, originally released in 1980, is a renowned model around the world. Still used today as a trainer, its no surprise that it makes it’s debut as a custom shoe…

On this introduction to the New Balance US993C, you’ll get to play with twenty four different colors (one new hue), four materials and panels galore. If you already played with the NB574C, than you know what to expect from the colors available (For those that don’t know, you can check out the list below). There is only one new color added by the name of Peacoat. It can only be applied to the throat stay and heel tab overlay. In the material department, you can make-up your custom NB993US from suede, 3M reflect and a new leather added in the form of nubuck. Exciting to see nubuck, but you are limited to only using it on the vamp accent, tongue tag, heel tab, and heel tab overlay. One other point is that the nubuck is only accessible with six colors and the N logo can only be applied with nine colors. Also, the actual N stays grey and is unchangeable no matter what color you choose to make the logo base. The 3M reflect is on two areas of the shoe, the heel tab overlay and the throat stay. They can be applied with either Black or Grey. The two last options you are given to change on the shoe, are the speed lace (front ankle plastic lace holes) in six different hues and the tongue overlay in sixteen hues. The midsole stays as the classic and generic colors of Grey and White.

The shoes are now ready to build at shopnewbalance.com. The cost is $174.95 with free shipping and takes anywhere from ONLY, 4 to 8 business days to arrive at your place of residency. Take your time if you decide to make one, its’s a difficult one to color block. I’ll be giving it a try, but it’ll be a while before I actually order one. I want to play around with it for a few weeks. Enjoy!
