We’re not a site usually known for leaking images of unreleased products but when we caught a glimpse of this NON-PRODUCTION sample Clarks Wallabee fashioned from Barbour fabrics… well how could we not show it. We caution you again – this is not in production and there are no plans for it to show up in your local shops. It is  pipe dream status with the interior patterned check, leather piping, and leather heel appliqué. We can only dream a little… (via frankthebutcher)

Anybody sick of the Reebok Pump yet? Surely you haven’t seen enough color ways or models of the shoe that caused quite a stir upon its release and went on to blaze trails with its innovative pump to fit technology. Well hopefully the answer to that question is no and you are feasting your eyes on the Aerobic Lite and AXT Plus. Both shoes are primarily white with shades of blue and red accenting. Any guesses on which are for guys and which are for gals? That shouldn’t be hard to figure out at all. At anyrate they will be dropping soon so crack those piggy banks if you wanna cop.

If you are fortunate enough to have a House of Hoops location near you you are definitely privy to some cool releases. The Maryland HOH just released a special color way of the Air Bakin and while those are far more elusive than the OG’s, finding the red/black probably wasn’t easy either. Nike has decided to release the Dennis Rodman popularized model in its OG colorway at select retailers so collectors can rest a little easier. Now its just finding out who has them. We know one spot that does…  Extra Butter

The SB Zoom Stefan Janoski  lends itself to a more casual design so seeing a sneak peak of this off white leather edition just kinda plays off of what is already good with the shoe. The leather upper is fully perforated for breathabliity and the swoosh is embroidered in a contrasting white. We have seen 3 drops from Janoski  in the past week, looks like his shoe may be the real one to watch next year. What do we think about them overall? Via NiceKicks

We have been posting these  up one by one for a few days now and the time has come to unveil the full drop. Nike’s City Pack is a tribute to a few metropolis’ across the country by way of Blazers and Big Nikes. The colors borrow from the local teams and a the spirit of each city being represented. These are in stores now and surely some of you are reppin your town already with em. Via TheShoeGame

We talked about the black/volt variation of this shoe back in June and while the release date seemed a ways of then December is right around the corner and it appears that another speckled shoe has been spotted. Now appearing in varsity red with royal blue along for the ride the Dotty Dunk Pack looks to a very promising release. Check the detailed shots below and then check your local retailers for availability. Via Sneakerfreaker

Man rotating gifs are pretty damn awesome. For those of us who are easily amused its like watching a very short movie. The shoes you see were put together for the homie Manny Pacquiao and are aptly titled the Lights Out Trainer 1’s. As you can see they glow but once you get past that you get to the more minute details like the embroidery, laser graphics and illustrations. Nike went all out on the design of the packaging also and sealed the sweat deal with a tee to match. Too bad they aren’t dropping stateside. Via KC31.

Saucony roughs up to help you prevent scuffs. The typically lightweight runner with the bulky sole jumps out the box in three lively colorways that make very good use of accenting colors. We have seen these color ways applied to other shoes this season but they translate very well to this design. So this begs the question, what’s your favorite? Via SneakerFreaker

How about a brief history lesson: British rocker Malcolm McLaren launched Duck Rock in 1983 which gave birth the the infamous World Famous Supreme Team. Now that we’ve made that clear lets figure out just how that fits into the dayglow Vans V-79’s we have featured. It looks like Supreme has decided to pay homage to this seminal cultural figure by way of these 3 neon shoes. Via SneakerFreaker

The Footscape is one of those shoes that love it or hate it you gotta admit the design is pretty groundbreaking. And who can front on comfort? Nobody, thats who. So seeing them with a flywire upper means that the groundbreaking shoe continues to break ground. As if it couldn’t be anymore lightweight or flexible the shoe with the barefoot feel comes new and improved with a Livestrong cosign. Bravo Nike. Via x-kicks

The Onitsuka TIger isn’t seen that often around these parts so it should be no surprise that when they are featured they are a Danish exclusive. Sneaker boutique Wood Wood linked up with the shoe manufacturer for a limited run of the X-Calibur done up in muted mesh mixed with grey suede’s and topped off by an embroidered club on the heel. Chances are if you want these eBay will be your friend but they are available at Sneakersnstuff.

New Balance are in the business of giving you more than enough blue suede shoes to choose from than you can possibly imagine. The 996 Royal Blue is composed of many materials and features tons of monochromatic details like a script embossed ‘New Balance’ heel cap. These are available now. Via Nicekicks

Entertainers get shoes made in their honor all the time so its cool to see an entertainer use their collaboration to pay homage to another and do something a little different. DJ Cassidy linked up with Rockport for his own signature boat shoe and while it may just look like a flambouyant shoe the reasoning behind its design makes it exceptional. The shoe has an elastic binding to hold it on your foot enabling it to be worn laceless which is homage to Run DMC and if thats not enough the shoes colorway was derived from Micheal Jacksons outfit in the Billie Jean video that was a red bow tie and pink socks.  A limited edition of 50 pieces represents the number of years the King of Pop was with us and they will be available soon at NYC’s Blue & Cream.

Supra and Steve Aoki are linking up one a pair of Strapped sneakers. The Wildlife Strapped has all the goodness that you would expect from the popular shoe except this time the buckled up upper is printed in a wild animal pattern. The contrasting white sole rounds this one out nicely and the red lining is simply awesome. If you are in Los Angeles on August 18th drop by the launch party at Factory 413 where Benji Madden & Laser Beam will be DJing and Mr. Aoki himself will make a gues appearance.Via Hypebeast
