We’ve been seeing previews of this model off and on since this past May

We’ve been seeing previews of this model off and on since this past May, but those Sneaker News readers with memories sharp enough to remember that initial preview will also recall that they’ve always been slated for a spring 2012 debut. So though it feels like an eteity since we first laid eyes upon the Nike Air Max Barkley, it’s actually arr5ing about a week earlier than we could have expected. This first colorway seems appropriate with its mostly white build adding Old Royal and Gym Red hits in honor of Sir Charles’ early years with the Philadelphia 76ers, the team with whom Chuck built his rebellious public persona and eaed the nickname ‘The Round Mound of Rebound’. The Air Max Barkley, like Charles in his earlier days, is decidedly sleeker than the Air Max2 CB ’94 silo upon which it was based, and you’ll find them at select Nike Sportswear retailers like Premier.

It’s hard to come up Nike Free Run 5.0 V2 with a better canvas for a sneaker collaboration (and a fairly low key one, at that) than a couple of silhouettes with the most minimal of branding.  And that’s exactly what Stussy has chosen in the Nike Sea Star, a design that strongly resembles the CONS Skate version, but whose unique camo ripstop colorway juxtaposing a black version with luxurious caramel accents is unlike those we’ve seen to Nike Free 7.0 this point.  And the same goes with Stussy’s Elm LS, a recent introduction to Nike’s skateboarding lineup that drops its embossed side panel Star and Chevron for a stamp featuring one of the most famous signatures in streetwear.  Click through to see how all three incorporate a camo footbed and look for yours arr5ing now at top Nike stockists like Premier.

 

The Hundreds’ Footware Collection has been building momentum and expanding its offerings for about four years now, their latest collection the most impress5e yet in terms of both breadth and presentation.  This new lookbook depicting models ranging from the standby Hundreds Valenzuela to the new Riley hightop continues to offer simple yet stylish nods to the heritage of American athletic footwear, and it seems like all of them have been crafted in suede for that soft yet slightly rugged look.  Click through to see more from the Johnson, Scully and others, and look for these at The Hundreds flagship locations and select retailers, and if you want to see the entire lookbook for yourself, click here.
