The original Reese Forbes-designed ‘Wheat’ Nike Dunk SB Low Pro introduced a Timberland vibe that was replicated in 2006 with a cord laced Mid that might have more fully realized the inspiration. The new release above takes that Mid’s silhouette and chocolate brown toe to its logical conclusion. The rich brown suede upper allows the construction boot laces to really pop.
Jeff Staple didn’t even need a booth this year to make one of the biggest statements at the recent Bread and Butter tradeshow. He was seen roaming around in an all white version of the “Pigeon” New Balance 575’s that he designed a while back. If you remember, the original version had a dark grey upper, so as soon as people spotted these, speculation began over whether or not they were just a sample or would eventually be released.
Last week, we gave you a peek at the latest collaboration between Mita Sneakers and Asics. With several tempting classic running options to choose from, it was the Gel Lyte Speed that was selected to be the subject of this project. The shoe has been given its wildest look yet, using a muted grey/white upper that is contrasted by a variety of vibrant color accents.

Adding an Air Force 1 sole is fine, but let’s not forget that the Nike SB Dunk Low has a mighty legacy all its own. This latest edition has a bunch of earthy tones just in time for fall. They range from black and brown to several tones of green. Brighter notes of orange and yellow tie in the theme and make us wonder if it’s too early to grab the rake. There are also rumors that these are the Toxic Avenger Dunk SB that’s been redesigned several times
Recently Nike and the Penny Signature series released the second colorway of the 1/2 cent (black/metallic). But in September 2009 House of Hoops will shelve the 3rd colorway of the prestigious shoe with a reverse Metallic/black colorway. If the third installment sells anywhere near the original blue/black colorway then Nike and Penny will boast yet another success.
Jordan Brand athlete Ray Allen was recently spotted at the American Century Golf Championships in Lake Tahoe flaunting yet another perk of his enviable footwear alliance. Ray was showing off his swing all day in a pair of Air Jordan XII Low golf cleats that appear to have taken their colorway from the OG Taxi design.
We gave you a peek at this upcoming Nike SB Dunk release last week, but at the time, the inspiration behind the shoe had still not been revealed. Now it appears that these kicks have been created to pay tribute to Will Ferrell’s beloved character from the 2004 comedy, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy. The Red suede upper is a nod to Burgundy’s name and his sweet newsman anchor suit.
