Firstly apologies as after we posted a round up last week the date of the liberty release at Offspring got pushed back to coincide with the Nike release. Hope those looking to cop ’em managed to scoop.

Ok let’s start this weeks round of releases with some more World Cup themed Nike Silhouettes dropping in colourways inspired by the respective countries. THE AIR MAX 90 ‘Rio’ AIR MAX 95 ‘London’ AIR MAX MOTION ‘Rio” These are dropping TODAY. You should be able to find these at retailers such as Size? and Footpatrol as well as other major Nike retailers

Both sides of the atlantic will see the release today of the NIKE BASKETBALL ELITE series HERO Collection featuring KOBE IX ELITE, LEBRON XI ELITE, KD VI ELITE silhouettes scheduled to be releasing through Nike.com and Footlocker.com and Footlocker.eu .

Although we covered the stateside retro or reissue of the ADIDAS APS after almost three decades in the last couple of weeks, we now see a UK release via way of the Adidas website scheduled for a release on Saturday 10th May.

Next NIKE SB STEFAN JANOSKI Lunar, that’s right, I guess it was only a matter of time before the Jansoki got the Lunar midsole treatment as with a lot of the Nike silhouettes in the past couple years. This will certainly make for a nice lightweight summer kick, as for the practicalities I will leave that for the skaters among you to decide. Available at all good SB retailers such as Noteshop scheduled for 10th May.

Would you adam and eve it we have 3 more Jordan Brand releases this week. AIR JORDAN 2 RETRO DARK CONCORD “Blending different elements from beloved Air Jordan models, the Air Jordan 2 Retro ‘Dark Concord’ takes Elephant print from the Air Jordan 3, Dark Concord from the Air Jordan 11 and a subtle splatter print from the Air Jordan 4”. Also we see the release of AIR JORDAN 1 RETRO ’86 DARK CONCORD “A Dark Concord colorway puts the stamp of the Air Jordan 11 on Air Jordan 2 elements, including the Wings logo and molded heel counter, which mix in with the classic Air Jordan 1 silhouette” Just for the ladies and  you lucky small footers exclusive AIR JORDAN 6 RETRO TURBO GREEN AND VOLT. “The Air Jordan 6 Retro features a Black and Turbo Green upper, pops of Volt on the midsole and lace toggle and an icy sole to complete the look”. All 3 currently scheduled to be released on May 10 on Nike.com (8am BST/9am CET).

More for the skaters and SB heads the NIKE SB COLLECTION HACKY SACK. The latest colourways of the Zoom Stefan Janoski, Nike Eric Koston and Dunk High and Low Premium SB from Nike Skateboarding starts with a hacky sack-esque print. Nike SB designers came across a piece of fabric that reminded them of the woven footbags (hacky sack) that were popular during the 1980s (I still mess with them now personally) launching 10th May on Nike.com as well as through other major Nike retailers.

Until next time….Bad JuJu
