Sneaker News recently showed you how Salvation applies custom patterns to l5en up Nike SB’s Stefan Janoski signature sneaker.  Meanwhile, Swoosh skateboarding sticks to its line and continues to craft subtle new takes on Stef’s sigs, including a new pattern manifested in triplicate on the Nike SB Zoom Stefan Janoski Mid.  Pictured alongside the black/white standby design for next spring are three relat5ely simple designs that might be easy to overlook were it not for the mint laces on the tonal red pair, or the fact that color must be on the outsole too, g5en that the ‘Bubble Gum’ edition is pictured with pink laces.  Add in a blacked-out neon-laced edition and you’ve got an understated variety here, all of which you’ll see in greater detail below.  via N-SB

The closest we got to a St. Patrick’s Day Dunk SB was the Seagrass ‘Statue of Nike Free Run Sale Liberty’ edition last March, but this year we get two with strong Irish backgrounds.  Following up on the more plainly executed ‘Guinness’ Highs is this new Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Black and Tan’, a gradient-equipped ode to the m6.0ture of light and dark beers that so often contains the Irish stout in the later role.  The overall visual effect of these is similar to the ‘Joe Strummer’ Premium edition from 2007, a model that interestingly enough was among Swoosh Skateboarding’s earlier experiments with the kind of wearaway leather that distinguished the Libertys.  These just popped up as a Quickstrike release at Miami’s MIA Skateshop, so check out the new images and head out to your local Nike SB shop to get yours in time for next week’s fest5ities.

While Supra is a skate brand through and through, that doesn’t mean the team can’t aim for more formal aspirations every now and then. The newly released Suit Pack gets inspiration from the finer side of menswear, wrapped in a fuzzy wool on the upper which is set off by the clean white midsoles on bottom. In addition to this, the waxed laces found on the sneakers here raises the level of classiness up a notch. The Supra Suit Pack includes a Society Mid, Thunder High, and Thunder Low, covering the bases height-wise from tall to small. Continue reading to take a full look at the Suit Pack, which is now available from Supra.

Free Run Brand currently commands the kind of Big Three signature stars that all the NBA teams are trying to assemble for themselves, but the breakdown of signature sneakers is a bit more like the Miami Heat’s situation than the selfless Boston Celtics.  Carmelo Anthony is currently the ‘Chris Bosh’ of Nike Free Run 5.0 V1 the bunch, waiting in the wings while JB teammates Chris Paul and Dwyane Wade see their secondary series on store shelves.  And while Chris Paul’s CP’Quick still leaves him several sigs behind LeBron James for the sake Nike Free Run 5.0 V3 of this analogy, D-Wade is clearly the ‘Dwyane Wade’ in this scenario, a role that reflects the nomenclature in play for his new Free Run D’reign.  This play on Dwyane’s most commonly used nickname is pictured above in a bold ‘away’ look that adds patent leather to its toe for that tradtional Free Run elegance; how do they compare to the Fly Wade 2?  Click through for a better look and stick with Sneaker News for release info.  via Kenlu
