Coming soon to a retailer near you is this Nike Blazer Hi dubbed the “Clear Swoosh”. The blazer boast a grunge-like print across the forefoot, side panels, and heel. The print give the already dark silhouette and “spooky” look which is enhanced by a nearly clear Nike Swoosh. A black outsole sits beneath, and the design is completed with nubuck overlays. Look for these to become available in the near future.

Nike ACG is continuing their Fall push with the Nike ACG Escape. The Escape, an ode to getting away from the city, originally debuted in the 90s, and emerges with the same rugged outdoor aesthetic that we are used to. The upper is mixed with leather and mesh, and uses blue and turbo green as accents. The black midsole is spiced up with white speckles, and the outsole is completely monotone. And I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the word “Escape” on the bottom outsole. They will be available at select Nike retailers including Crooked Tongues in October.

Two previously unseen samples colorways of the Nike Air Max 24/7 have started to hit the web. Both pairs wear a finish that sits comfortably between matte and glossy, and slightly resembles a foamposite. The first pair sits in a Black/White-Metallic Gold colorway with metallic gold taking a lead position, while the other pair sits in a Black/White-Blue Spark, with the blue spark taking the lead position on the upper. There is currently no release date, but we heard that you may see these in early 2011.

Reebok is starting to pump (no pun intended) some of their more niche collection for the Fall/Winter with a special editorial in Vice Magazine. The article puts the singer Uffie, in some of the brands latest footwear apparel set to launch this season. Throughout the images we see some colorful takes on some Reebok classics, as well as a few yet to be seen models. While not your typical shoe advertisement, we can see Reebok is looking to expand the brand past just the athletic audience.
