Foot Patrol is one of London’s premier sneaker sources, and over the past year-plus, they’ve co-signed a series of underappreciated models. From the classic Reebok Workout to two different LCS Eclats and the Asics Gel Saga II, Foot Patrol has used their global recognition to shine some extra light on overshadowed gems. FP played a role in last year’s Converse Pro Leather resurrection as well, and today we see a similar two-pack of 1970s basketball high and lowtops in the Foot Patrol x Pony Topstar. These two seek to unite the NYC and LDN basketball scenes with your choice of grey suedes featuring triple lace options, all with both city names inscribed. The Foot Patrol Topstars’ release date is set for July 20th, so have a closer look and stick with Sneaker News for the latest.

Having recently presented itself in boot form, the Vans OTW Bedford reaches back for a more traditional infusion with this latest release. The ‘Tribe’ Bedford is a grey canvas build with just a hint of mint green peeking out from the sockliner and outsole. We haven’t seen any of the OTW Collection offering a Van Doren series drop, but thanks to this pair’s patterned innards, they share some common ground with those OG reissue prints. Check out more images after the jump, then grab your ‘Tribe’ Bedfords straight from Vans.

This latest off-road runner from Nike doesn’t have All Conditions Gear branding, but it appears physically equipped for just that. The Nike Zoom Terra Kiger takes its name from its cushioning platform, the earthy series responsible for classics like the Humara and Sertig, and a breed of Mustang horse native to Oregon. In this way, we see the Zoom Terra Kiger as a US counterpart to the Wildhorse that may never release here, so check out the rugged Sticky Rubber-soled style after the jump, then grab yours from NikeStore.

This year we got snakeskin on a retail pair of Jordans via the Air Jordan XI Low, but for some that just wasn’t enough thanks to the GS status. Serving up another reptilian look is this Air Jordan XI joint from the likes of Snaphigh. Utilizing the “Bred” colorway as a base, the pair strips out the patent leather from the Eleven equation in favor of a beautiful looking python panels.

The majority of the Nike Free based sneakers are low cut, as the technology was very much made with runners in mind. Extending the treatment up the leg a little bit is this, an alternate version of the Nike Free Trainer 3.0 that goes all mid on us. The extra bit of height isn’t the only head turning detail on this sample version-there’s also a good dosage of reflective material to give them a bit more of a boost. Continue reading to see this Nike Free Trainer 3.0 Mid sample and then add them to your collection courtesy of k.dooley-j.english on eBay.

The release of the Air Jordan V “Melo” would be quite a way to top things of for that silhouette in 2013. Of course we can’t really confirm or deny such a thing at this point, but the fact that they’re popping up in places besides the feet of Anthony himself kind of suggests that they’re on their way. This time around there’s an on-feet set to gaze at, one that kind of makes you feel warm inside at the thought of someone getting their hands on something this crazy and actually rocking it right away. Continue reading to get more on-feet looks at the Air Jordan V “Melo” and stay with us for more info on the story as it develops.

Nas has been on his festival grind as of late, taking a trip down to Tennessee for Bonnaroo after rocking the Big Apple a couple weekends back at Governor’s Ball. He kept things very NY for the latter show, completing his cypher with some suede Timbs on his feet. Bonnaroo saw him switching things up with some Jordans-the Air Jordan VIII “Bugs” to be exact. Continue reading to see Nas on stage in the Air Jordan VIII and keep in mind that there’s another pair on the way soon in the form of the “Playoffs” colorway.
