Puma Clyde Green and Grey Suede




Perhaps the most attention-grabbing Puma Clyde’s of the recent past came in the form of the Africa and Raps pairs. Now, Puma has toned it down and instead added suede uppers to these pairs of Clyde’s that come in green and grey. Both pairs sport entirely white soles and the Puma brand name is put on the side by the shoe laces in a nice touch of gold. These are both available now from certain Puma retailers.

Michael Lau x Nike SB Stefan Janoski



It seems like everybody’s on tour in Asia this summer, including Hong Kong’s own Michael Lau. Wooden character figurines are at the center of his ‘Gardener Tenth’ Exhibition, each a collaboration with a well-known name in the streetwear game. The most notable addition isn’t a toy, but instead this Nike SB Stefan Janoski. It’s done in a lighter wood grain than his Nike SB Dunk from a couple years back and looks dope with a white sole and laces. These will drop on October 3rd to end the exhibitions so stick with Sneaker News for updates. via HB

Vans Authentic LX – Spring 2010




"Straight from the Spring 2010 Vault collection, pictures of two inventive models of the Authentic have made their way onto the web. Class meets classic as the timeless sneaker appears to feature an all leather upper under standard white laces. In both Brown and Violet, the colorways bring a subtle element of formality I’ve never seen from any other leather Vans model. Slated to release in February of next year, I can’t wait to see more pictures."

Vans Chukka Low – Fall 2009



Vans is providing quite the line up for this year’s Fall 2009 collection. On top of the handful of CA 46 colorways we mentioned yesterday, come fall they plan on releasing a set of Chukka Lows, kin to the familiar Vans Chukka Boot. Using a relatively simple color pallet, Vans continues to build on their reputation of providing that comfortably classic feel in a variety of different packages. In particular, the navy and white horizontal stripe colorway brings something out of me — and I don’t just mean my wallet.

Nike Sportswear Air Zoom Tiempo – Superted



"Cycling is a family affair for Superted. Riding around London with his dad and brother, Ted entered his first charity ride at nine years old, doing thirty miles on a 20 inch wheel, five gear mountain bike. With the miles and contests came lots of broken bike parts. Ted discovered a curiosity for repairing not only his bike, but others as well, and took a gig as a mechanic at age 16.

Dabbling in skateboarding and BMX, Superted soon started riding a fixed gear bike and adapted his old tricks to his new bike. He hooked up with Fixed Gear London, and loves the camaraderie of so many cyclists coming from so many different backgrounds within the movement. Still in London, Ted has his own workshop for building and repairing frames. He is working on a number of projects including the development of some new parts. He loves everything about bikes and hopes to ride for the rest of his life. Ted’s colorway of the Nike Air Zoom Tiempo with Nike Sportswear will be available in the US in Fall 2009."

Nike Air Max 90 – Yellow Crocskin




Crocodile skin is in; even in yellow. Nike has unleashed another crocskin model in the form of the Nike Air Max 90. Here we have a very close look at the sample model, as the shoe uses premium yellow croc material to offset the white midsole and black outsole. This shoe definitely stands out more than your typical Italian crocodile leather dress shoe. Be on the lookout for these babies as they stand in sample form.
