Amongst the brand new Jordan Brand models in the works for July 2013 is the Jordan Phase 23 Hoops II. The original Jordan Phase 23 Hoops was a model born back in 2011, so it’s a little bit strange to see the peripheral b-ball shoe show up with a sequel after so long. This new design gets rid of most of the perforations that gripped the upper of the last iterations, offering up some much cleaner paneling across the tumbled leather sections. See more below and watch for the Jordan Phase 23 Hoops II to show up a couple months from now.

A first teaser of the upcoming Packer Shoes x Reebok Kamikaze II revealed a dope concept that circled around the NBA All-Star Game in 1996, when Shawn Kemp represented the Seattle Sonics as an All-Star during the event in San Antonio. Today, some new teaser shots of the upcoming release have been revealed, with the two-toned grey upper paired with an incredible combination of orange, aqua blue, and dark pink tones on the midsole and altered pepper logos of the shoes. While a release date hasn’t been finalized just yet, we do know that the wait won’t be too long, so stay tuned to Sneaker News for a firm release date and check out the extra teaser shots below.

Jordan Brand’s summer plans are starting to take shape. Those plans include a couple of Air Jordan 1 Mid styles, this pair here being one of them that we’ve not spotted before. The sneaker is a black and red affair, but ends up looking pretty different from the likes of the “Banned” Air Jordan 1 goes as far as precedents are concerned. Consumers have been spoiled this year with the “Nike Air” stuff on the AJ1, so can the model still move units without? Give us your thoughts and check out the official images of this Air Jordan 1 Mid after the jump.

Lucas Puig’s adidas Skateboarding signature model has been in circulation for almost a year now, and here’s the most ‘adidas’ colorway to date. The Brand with the Three Stripes is synonymous with royal blue as contrasted by white, and these adidas Skate Lucas Pros are just that. They connect further with the adidas tennis legacy with gold branding, literally a classic foil versus the cutting edge SPRINTSKIN construction. Stick with Sneaker News for release info and let us know which adidas rider has the best footwear at the moment.

After the awesome true-to-OG styles of the Nike Air Trainer SC II High that hit stores back in 2011, the model has come back around for 2013 in a set of nowhere-near-OG styles. That’s a good thing in this case, as it’s cool to see the models get some NFL inspiration as made possible by Nike’s contract with the league. Get a full look at the Nike Air Trainer SC II High NFL joints right after the jump, available in “Dolphins”, “Jaguars”, and “Vikings” colorways and watch for them at NSW accounts like Sneaker Politics as they report a release for tomorrow, May 24th.

Here’s another Knit iteration of the Nike Air Footscape Woven Chukka. In these styles, Nike Sportswear runs one contrasting ribbon around the entire shoe, in this case, a Melon Tint strip. This element and the olive weaving around it buffers the Deep Smoke upper/murky blue sole combination’s contrast. The Footscape series tends to be quite polarizing, but those who are down will recognize the brilliance demonstrated in more photos after the jump. Let us know how these compare to the recent Poison Green drop and stay tuned because the US release can’t be too far off.
