Sneakerheads are some of the most fanatical collectors, obsessing over the smallest variances in colors, materials, shape and even packaging. Earlier this week we showed comparison shots of the Air Jordan 3 “Black Flip”, a pair that has garnered a slew of attention ranging from basketball enthusiasts to sneaker fanatics. Today, we get a close up look of the Air Jordan 14 “Last Shot”, a pair set to release later this December, in a side-by-side comparison photo shoot with the OG pair as well as the retro pair. Each pair features unique differences. See if you can spot what’s different on this year’s release.

Just want to buy a pair of Asics GT II Navy/Lime right now? Asics GT II Navy/Lime.

Asics is one of those brands that is right up there at the forefront of things in the sneaker world, but in all honesty it doesn’t seem like they want to be. They seem to enjoy the amount of fame and success that they have and on top of that the Asics fans tend to be very loyal indeed. We don’t get to see all that many Asics releases compared to a lot of the other sneaker brands out there, so when we do see one, usually we get very excited. Today we are going to be looking at the latest shoe to be released from them, this is the new Asics GT II in Navy and Lime.

This is the classic silhouette that we have all come to know and love and we have to say that this navy blue and lime colorway is a really good fit for this shoe.

Just want to buy a pair of Vans California Mid Skool 77 Hiker right now? Vans California Mid Skool 77 Hiker.

We all know Vans as the skateboard brand that has really got it all going on, and we definitely love their skateboarding shoes, but we also appreciate it when they are able to branch out just a bit. It is when they leave their comfort zone that we are able to see what they have really gotten hidden up their sleeve. Vans doesn’t kid themselves and try to create basketball shoes or other types that are really far out from what they know how to do, but they do create some really nice shoes with slightly different styles. We are going to take a look at an example of one today with this new Vans California Mid Skool 77 Hiker.

You can tell just by looking at it that this shoe was meant to be rough and rugged. Leather and nubuck are used across the uppers of the shoe.

Just want to buy a pair of Nike SB Vulc-Rod Mulberry right now? Nike SB Vulc-Rod Mulberry.

Nike SB has had a huge amount of success in a relatively short amount of time within the skateboarding community. This can be attributed to a number of different things, probably first and foremost to their great shoes matched up with great colorways. Another thing that has been huge for them is all of the different signature shoes that they have started to release with some of the really big name skaters out there. They have even started creating some hybrid models of the signature shoes like the ones that we are going to be seeing today. This is the new Nike SB Vulc-Rod Mulberry.

This shoe will feature an all suede mulberry upper with a black swoosh on top of a white sole as well. This one might not necessarily appeal to everyone but we can imagine that a whole lot of people will really dig this one.

Just want to buy a pair of Vans California Chukka Boot Nordic Pack right now? Vans California Chukka Boot Nordic Pack.

Vans is just one of those companies that can’t fail. We would say that they have the Midas touch although we all know that the Midas touch is not necessarily a good thing. It seems like though that every shoe that Vans creates manages to become an instant classic in the sneaker world and they seem to do that without very much effort at all. They have recently over the past few years really toned down their sneakers as far as the wild designs but every now and then you get something that is a little out there. We are going to take a look at one of those shoes today with this new Vans California Chukka Boot Nordic Pack.

This pack will be made up of a total of three different sneakers and they feature the sort of pattern that is often seen on Mexican styled blankets and the like.

Just want to buy a pair of Nike SB Blazer Black/Sea Crystal right now? Nike SB Blazer Black/Sea Crystal.

The Nike Blazer has got to be one of our favorite shoes, we have said it time and time again. We just love how the shoe has been able to keep its classic appeal while still adapting slightly to stay relevant throughout the years. Even when the shoe got turned into an SB version, things still didn’t change much for this one as it just kept rolling along with the punches with the same great style that it has become so well known for in the sneaker world. Today we are going to be taking a look at the latest version to be announced, this is the new Nike SB Blazer in Black and Sea Crystal.

Even though this one won’t be available until the Summer of 2012, we know that the fans are already getting excited over it. The colorway is bit different but looks really great here.
