The group at New Jersey Skateshop, the masterminds behind the recent ‘Toxic Dunk’ are at it yet again with SB to create this sample above set to release on the 4th of July, 2010. More information will be released in the next few months.
Before they rocked navy blue, red and white, the Atlanta Hawks used to rock a palette that used yellow instead of blue. Perhaps memories of performances like the one that inspired the above pictured Air Jordans (and maybe those hilarious graphic jerseys from the early ’90s) are what inspired the team to adopt a new look. This Air Jordan 60+ is a not so subtle reminder of one of the many times MJ got the best of the A’s home team. They go with a black upper and yellow stitching just like the Air Jordan 1 Retro Phat Premier that makes up the other half of this backhanded tribute. These should be dropping next month, so F.A.D.E.D. will keep you updated.
Whats good F.A.D.E.D. nation?
Supra’s most popular look, the Skytop, will be released in a number of colorways that use premium materials in the upcoming months. Here is a look at three different colorways of the Supra Skytop that are scheduled to drop sometime in the Holidays of 2009. The three colorways include a Red leather and Black patent leather pair, a Dark Grey heavy canvas pair, and a solid Black canvas pair. If you’re looking to add a pair of Skytop’s to your collection, any one of these three might be the perfect pair. Check out more picks after the jump.

Who is a fan of New Balances??
(crickets)
Lets not get silly, but New Balances have the capabilites of making one F.A.D.E.D. Most people diss 'em but NB doesn't get enough credit for the attractive styles that they create. Below are three new pairs of unreleased New Balances that could possibly catch the eye of a New Balance hater.
The SNKRFRKR x New Balance 850 ‘Skippy’ captures all of that Melbourne culture. We see the green and yellow that frequent the Australian national team’s jerseys, balanced out with black, white and gold
An eighteen year old shoe graces the cover of SneakerFreaker’s 16th release. To be completely accurate, it’s only on one of four collectors covers, but the SNKRFRKR x New Balance 850 ‘Skippy’ captures all of that Melbourne flavour. We see the green and yellow that frequent the Australian national team’s jerseys, balanced out with black, white and gold. No word yet on a release date with these, so we’ll keep you posted.
As the Jordan Brand continues to commemorate Michael Jordan's 60 point performances, the latest memory is honoring MJ's 61 point game against the Detroit Pistons on March 4th, 1987. These consist of a cement color effect on the blue and grey portion of these ones. There is also a red portion in the front part of the shoe with the same effect...probably one of the nicer releases from the 60+ point collection.
As a broadcast design project for Bezalel Academy of Art and Design, the Israel-base graphic designer ELNA created an mix medium short, intended to be a commercial for Nike Israel. Along with animated sequences, the short film also included live action shots of 3 pairs of Nike Dunk low & high, all customized by ELNA. In order to coordinate with the film’s animation, each of the Dunks were outfitted in bold strokes, playful shapes and vibrant colors. No words yet on whether the sneakers will be available for the general public.
Sorry people, it's been a couple days but I'm back at it with a little update on some things you should be posted on.
If you're a fan of cute shoes, these are it. The MVPuppets campaign during the 2009 NBA playoffs became very popular among us whether we're basketball fans or not. Everybody has had to seen at least one commercial with Lil Dez, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James being portrayed as puppets. Funny stuff.
Those who remember the classic movie Space Jam (1996), will most likely be a fan of these…
ese shoes were originally seen on Jordan’s feet in the Space Jam movie and it will be dropping as a limited quickstrike release. The combination leather, patent leather and nylon makes the shoe attractive along with the lite blue Jumpman and clear/blue soles.
In celebration of Villa’s 20th anniversary of operation, they’ve collaborated with Jay-Z, Udi Avshalom from Training Camp NYC and Stash to create the commemorative R+ Americana Boot. These boots run from $200 and they will only be released in two colors…black and brown. These boots were tested on construction grounds for durability and they passed the test (who cares) so that shows how dependable they are.
Now $200 for what looks like basic boots is a little suspect to some people. But if you were 
to ask me, I do like the style of these boots. What attracts me the most is the R+ symbol on the tongue and the thick soles. Not a lot of people are fans of these boots, but generally everything Hov touches, blows up. I mean, I’d sport these JUST because of the fact that Jay-Z had a say-so in the design of the boots.
The R+ Americana Boots will be released on September 15, 2009 and there will only be 54 pairs available throughout the world (why?). Stay posted with these so that you can reserve your exclusive pair.
Sup F.A.D.E.D. ppl,
I just gotta little information that I wanna share with you guys real quick...
The latest pairs of shoes that I've been eyeballing lately are the white, blue and black Jordan VII's 60+. I peeped these out while I was roaming thru sneakernews.com a couple weeks ago and I kinda been stuck on them since.
