Some 13 years into his professional skateboarding career and Nike Free Run 3.0 V2 Brian Anderson is ready for his sig silhouette from the Nike SB folks. Shown here is the upcoming Nike SB Project BA, the debut Swoosh shoe for the skate legend. The sneaker will feature Lunarlon cushioning, like so many others in the same category as of late, and a lightweight suede upper that puts on a bit of branding via a sectioned off overlay on the back half. See more on the Nike SB Project BA in red and white, an apparent Fall 2013 release, after the jump and check back with Sneaker News for more info on release dates and upcoming colorways.

The Nike Air Force Max went to outer space and back, returning with an “Area 72″ colorway in the new seamless “2013″ model of the shoe. Thankfully, the original silhouette of this Nike Free Run 5.0 V2 Barkley was left untouched, but the build structure has been altered to reduce stitching. This new colorway that we’ll unabashedly dub the “Grape” version is one that would’ve been a perfect for back in the day, when shoes were color-blocked with predominately white or black uppers and hits of colors in the same manner seen here. Nike Sportswear retailers like Renarts has these Nike Air Force Max 2013 releases ready to go on May 25th, so check out the extra photos below and let us know what you think.

If the latest Nike Zoom Stefan Janoski looks familiar to you, then you might be a longtime Sneaker News reader.  This new Old Royal and Midnight Navy Janoski lowtop is similar to a Pacific Blue style that hit in 2010, the key difference being this pair opting out of microperforations Air Max 87 Womens on the saddle.  It’s a more uniform look that’s a bit deeper blue than the aforementioned style, so have a closer look after the jump and check back with us for this new style set to arrive shortly.

We recently broke down the inspiration behind the Nike Kobe 8 Mambacurial, noting the ties to the Nike Mercurial Vapor IX that released earlier this year. Basketball fans will have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the international sport with this release – one of Nike’s most impressive concoctions of the year and a certain candidate to make our Top 30 of the year. A release date hasn’t been confirmed and neither has distribution info (a Euro/Asia exclusive?), so if you want to avoid the wait and mystery, get this Kobe 8 now from id4shoes on my stroes.
