Here are some sample pics of the Supra NS 2008 fall and winter collection. The pack will be available at select retailers next week with the rest of the collection will be released in mid-August. See more sample pics after the jump.

Here is one of the sneakers in the Nike SB August sneaker line up. It features a magenta and Light Poison Green colorway with black accents. Look for this hot new colorway at a Nike SB retailer next month.

It seems like everyone in the United States has already seen The Dark Knight judging by last weekend’s box office sales. I found a pair of Chuck Taylor customs that make my wait for The Dark Knight easier to handle. Sweatshop Clothing has created a special pair of these familiar canvas kicks based on Heath Ledger’s character, The Joker.

The ominous phrase “Why so serious?” that appears in the trailer and promotional materials is written in red paint just above the outsole. An outstanding image of Ledger’s deranged Joker is placed just below the collars on both shoes. Sweatshop Clothing took great care to make Ledger’s likeness realistic to capture The Joker’s ability to terrorize without making a move.

The designer completed the Joker effect by adding spades, jacks, hearts and diamonds similar to the joker card that inspired Ledger’s character. I cannot wait to see this movie now that I have seen such a great representation by Sweatshop Clothing. You can see additional pictures as well as other projects by Sweatshop Clothing at the designer’s MySpace page linked here.

Two new colorways of the Adidas Roster Mid are available now at Overkill. The first is a blue and beige colorway, while the second is the Mark Gonzales edition.

The blue version features a dark blue leather upper, complemented with light blue and beige details. The stripes and other accents are in light blue, while the rest of the shoe uses a light beige and medium beige suede. Though they use several shades, these shoes are a little drab for my taste. They are priced at $131.05 USD).

The Mark Gonzales edition is completely different. It features a white leather upper combined with silver patent leather, black stripes and other black accents.The Mark Gonzales logo and character (a fly skateboard ghost) are embossed on the black leather ankles. These shoes are $154.21 USD at Overkill.

The Nike Fall 2008 Dunk Lows are cool. This collection was designed for autumn. So far, there are two colorways. These sneakers are sold at Proper.

Let’s look at the white/brown/darkbrown colorway. The toe box is in small checks that alternate between brown and dark brown checks. The tongue is dark brown and so is the shoe lace. The thick, broad shoe lace makes the look seem warm and comfortable. The midsection is white and has a strap extended up from the base of the heel. There are 4 holes on the end of the strap and these are nice as decorative details. The inner lining of the shoe is white to keep the shoe looking bright. The swoosh is light brown. Half of the midsole is black, while the lower half of the midsole is white. The outsole is white.

The other colorway is black/ brown/ beige. The toe box and mudguard are black. The main body is made of heavy knit textile. The tongue is black and has a blue colored tag. The swoosh is dark brown. The midsole is half black and half dark brown. The outsole is dark brown. I like the cool colors in this dark colorway.

This pair costs about 14,000 Yen and is sold at Mita.

The toe box has tiny perforations. Both the toe box and mudguard are made of suede. The midsection is made of smooth leather that has the number 8 embossed on it. This number denotes the day the Beijing Olympics starts; August 8, 2008.The pattern of 8 is rather discreet and looks very classy.

Over the midsection, the Nike swoosh is attached. The base of the heel has a strap that extends up to help form the last pair of shoe lace holes for the shoe. This is made of suede. The anklet of the shoe is made of knitted wear.

The shoe lace and tongue are in the same deep dark color as the main body of the shoe. I like the clean, standard color look of this sneaker. The midsole and outsole are white in color to provide a clean look for the shoe.

The outsole had concentric circles at the front and a half oval shape of treads at the heel. I like the rich mix of materials used in this shoe.

The shoe’s design and color would make it suitable for use anywhere. I like the use of the black color and the various types of leather for the shoe. The mixture of suede and smooth leather is interesting.
