Today we had our first look at the Nike KD VI “Meteorology”, a sneaker that seems to follow up on the famed “Weatherman” theme that made its debut on the Nike Zoom KD IV. Of course, the Nike Basketball team tends to shy away from using the same theme multiple times, so they have a sort of sequel in the works with this one (Think of “South Beach” vs “Miami Vice” in the LeBron line). As you can see the shoes put on a black and pink colorway, one that’s got all sorts of topographic markings and bizarre little logos along the upper. See more on the Nike KD VI “Meteorology”, release date August 3rd, after the jump and stay tuned to us for some clearer shots of the shoe.

We won’t blame people if they thought that the “Area 72″ version of the Nike Air Force Max 2013 would be the best of that sneaker’s colorways to ever arrive. Those just may have been topped though by this, a much more traditional looking “Grape” take on the slightly remixed shoe. Do you prefer this lowkey version to the wild graphics and glow in the dark treatment found on the aforementioned All-Star release? Tell us in the comments below and keep in mind that the “Grape” version of the Nike Air Force Max 2013 is showing up at stores like Wish in Atlanta now.

Alright so it looks like the Nike Air 180 will be going on an extended safari soon enough. Just yesterday we saw a version of the sneaker that donned the famed “safari” print on its back end, mixing in a colorway that looked nothing like the shoe that said print first arrived on. Doing that once again is this upcoming pair, which goes for white, orange, and green across the upper. Continue reading to see this latest “Safari” remix of the Nike Air 180 and make sure you keep it locked on Sneaker News to get all the pertinent release info for both of these Nike Air Max pairs.

The Air Jordan XI “Concord” with the 45 hit on the back is one of those real rarities of the Air Jordan realm. The original version and the various retros have popped up over the years with that little detail, one obviously pointing the Michael’s comeback number. Shown here is a pair of “Concord” Air Jordan XIs in the possession of one DJ Khaled, a dude who has been known to hang out with Air Jordan heavy hitters like Drake and Lil Wayne. See his pairs after the jump and tell us if this was a curveball in the collection of Khaled.

We got our first look at this latest Vans Sk8-Hi release nearly eleven months ago. There hasn’t been so much as a peep since, which means only today with the retail release do we find that it’s a collaboration with Vans surfer Dane Reynolds. Reynolds’ Sk8-Hi Reissue SF utilizes an aloha print created specifically for Vans Surf, and the collection of pastels accented by earthy greens means they’re good to go with just about anything. Add in the sub-$60 MSRP and these are just too good to pass up, so check them out below then grab a pair from Size?

Sneakers specific tuned for outdoor play are sort of a dying breed at the moment, with not too many of the XDR joints and the like making huge noise here in the US at the moment. The category perhaps reached its peak back in the 90s, when companies were eager to cater to players who didn’t have access to real deal hardwood, a goal that also allowed them to inject some more “street” imagery into the associated campaigns. Helping tell the tale of outdoor basketball sneakers is this piece from Complex, which labels itself as a complete history of streetball sneakers. Did they hit all the key points? Check out some streetball models culled from the history books after the jump and let us know in the comments.
