Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past few months, you’ve noticed that the Jordan fusions/hybrids/mash-ups are getting a lot better. Tomorrow, JB drops two new colorways (hit the jump for the other one) of the Jordan Sixty Plus, a sneaker that pieces together the five sneakers that Michael wore in games when he scored more than 60 points. Yup, although it looks like the Jordan V, cues from the Jordan I, II and VII are also present. Check for the sneakers to hit general release stores tomorrow morning, and also be sure to read our interview with Justin Taylor, the man responsible for designing the sneaker.

Are you still one of those people who say “no one wears Bape anymore”? Get over it. Nigo’s brand still kills it, and by re-releasing classics that established themselves as a powerhouse they’ve got everyone paying attention again. This “Bapesta OR” style hit the stores a couple weeks back, but just became available online. With an attention to details like faux-ostrich skin leather, we’re giving them the Complex co-sign. Check for this colorway and two more HERE for $225.

The release date for these dark navy patent leather Jordan 1s were sketchy on JB’s website, but apparently the sneakers have been trickling into overseas retailers. Don’t be surprised if you see celebrities pairing these with a suit on the red carpet, and the youngins wearing them to the prom and graduation. They’ll hit U.S retailers in a few weeks, but scoop them now HERE for $187.

This winter, expect to see Vans crank out a lot of Chukka Boots, some even lined with fur to keep your feet warm. Before the make-ups with the fur insides hit the shelves, look out for this Vapor Blue Chukka that has finally made its way to stores in the U.S. You can cop the sneaker for a reasonable $60, and if you’re really feeling the color, check for the Era that’s done up the same way. Available now.

After a couple Disney and Adult Swim collaborations, etnies Plus gets more serious with two new colorways of the Jameson model.

If you’ve always wanted to stretch the deck shoe trend past the summer months, Pointer’s got you covered with its Taylor silo. Sure it doesn’t have the same D.N.A as a normal shoe you’d hit the high seas wearing, but this mid-top finds itself right in the middle of winter boot and top-sider. Expect these to drop in a few weeks when Pointer’s fall/winter collection starts hitting stores.

White-on-white sneakers might be tough for us New Yorkers, but in Cali and other warm weather states, Creative Recreation kills it all year long. Although the O.G’s of cleaned-up sneakers pump out new silos every season, the Cesario is their oldie but goodie style. And if you do live New York, pack these for the mid-November Miami weekend getaway.
