Back to the grind...

Happy New Year, folks. Lets kick things off with Brand Jordan. JB is celebrating their 25th (silver anniversary) in 2010, so watch for sig shoes 1-23 to drop in white/silver colorways. Here are two of the retro models dropping sometime soon...

Onto Bron Bron. He's been rocking the China VII lately, but here is a glimpse of the Dunkman VII dropping this spring...

While the gunmetal/green colorways tend to be the most popular for Bron's sig shoes and Soldiers, Jason Petrie has stated they are moving towards something different (per ISS):

"Sometimes you just gotta change the status quo guys. We were tired of grey/green, it was time for a fresh take! The dunkman is about the green, not the gray, and the story and reason behind using black made much more sense than just using gray for the sake of it being a real "dunkman" colorway. Dunkman is about an attitude, the gray may be back at some point, but now is your chance to own something that is different from every other lebron shoe. And once you hear the story of why the shoe is black, you will see that grey would have made no sense. Be happy you even got a dunkman color at all, it was a fight to get them in the line!"

Onto Mamba....dropping next week, Away Colorways of the Kobe V...

^ I'm really looking forward to those...

And 2010 looks like the year of the Air Max mash-ups. These aren't too shabby, but I will reserve judgement till I see in person.

Nike Zoom Don (dropping fall 2010)

A hybrid of the classic Spiridon and what appears to be a AJ XIII-ish midsole. This follows in line with the 2009 release of the Air "Hoop" Structure.

And for model I am really anticpating....the Air Max 24-7. Basically, it contains a AM 95/97 hybrid upper with what looks like a 360 2009 sole. Watch for these in the spring or early summer:
