The updated Nike Lunar Force 1 has been met with a great deal of praise. Replacing the usual AF1 sole with a lightweight Lunarlon one creates a new feel, and a seamless hyperfuse upper decreases the weight even further. Today, we see the upper of the modified classic bathed in dark obsidian, and resting atop a fading green-to-volt  midsole. This quickstrike colorway is available in limited quantities at select Nike Sportswear retailers, including Sneakersnstuff.

Spoken word scores the newest video clip for the Nike Black History Month campaign. Music by 9th Wonder and a cameo by Kevin Durant appear in this web film, driving home the #BeBoldBeTrue theme. Check it out below.

In early November, Jerry Stackhouse surprised many with his inspired play and his footwear. For the 2012-2013 NBA season, he returned to the court in the FILA Stackhouse, a shoe that FILA first laced Stackhouse with in 1995. Up to this point, we have seen him wear a mainly black version for road games and a predominately white version for home games. Yet, in last night’s win against the Timberwolves, Jerry opted to debut the “Camo” FILA Stackhouse. The “Camo” Stackhouse, which surfaced on the site a little over a week ago, owns a mostly grey upper with camouflage hints on the outsole. No word on when or if the “Camo” Stackhouse will release, however multiple colorways of the Stackhouse Retro will hit retailers on March 15, 2013. View these kicks plus more, worn by DeMar DeRozan, Nate Robinson, Kobe Bryant, Tony Wroten and others, in today’s edition of Kicks On Court.

Veteran skateboarder John Cardiel goes to work on two Vans silhouettes for this Vans Classics Pack. The pack consists of the Sk8-Mid & Era Pro, the former in brown leather and the latter in a black / brown suede and canvas combination.

The Sk-8 mid with its rough and aged leather is easily the standout piece here. It features corded laces threaded through metal eyelets and oozes ruggedness. Comfort, of course is a given.

The Vans Era is sturdy and a looker in its own right with a gold button sitting pretty close to the tongue. It features similar corded laces. Both designs rest on a white midsole.
