10/25/10 Sneaker Yap's Outfit of the Day
Nike LeBron 8 - Black/White-Sport Red-Metallic Gold
While all the hype around the LeBron 8 is focused on the recently released "South Beach" colorway, we now have a closer look at what LeBron will be wearing on court for the Miami Heat. Perfect for any of of the three Miami Heat uniforms, this latest LeBron 8 arrives in a classic black, white and sport red color scheme. A black nubuck is used on the toe area, and also takes place on the side panels and ankle area. Creating the Miami Heat-inspired look, sport red is used on the tongue, Swoosh border, 360 Air unit and other areas throughout. White also joins in on the fun, working on the Swoosh and midsole wit the help of some sport red speckle.
You can pick up this all new colorway of the Nike LeBron 8 at Nike Basketball retailers Nationwide beginning October 26th.

Nike Air Foamposite One - Dark Neon Royal/White-Black
After waiting months for a look at the official 2011 "Penny" Foamposite One release, we've gotten sets of images on two consecutive days. However, the sneaker community never gets tired of laying their eyes on this blue-shelled beauty. Made popular by Penny Hardaway in 1997, the "Penny" Foams gained instant popularity due to eye-catching royal blue colorway and "futuristic" technology. The shoe made a return 10 years later, and didn't miss a beat, instantly selling out everywhere. Nike decided not to make the masses wait another 10 years, opting to bring the classic back early next year. Who WON'T be trying to pick up a pair on release day?
Kicks-Crew is selling a few sizes early if you'd like to secure your pair early.
Color: Dark Neon Royal/White-Black
Style: 314996-500

Nike Air More Uptempo - Dark Obsidian/Orange-White
Set to make a return this Holiday season, the Air More Uptempo has been one of the most recognizable shoes Nike Basketball has ever created. Arriving a bit early, we have this all new colorway that would be perfect for a Denver Broncos or even a Charlotte Bobcats jersey. The all new colorway arrives in a dark obsidian nubuck upper, with white piping outlining the "AIR" side panels. White is also seen on the toe and tongue Swoosh, and continues along the midsole below. Minimal hits of orange are also seen, working the full length Air unit and other areas throughout.
Pick these up today over at Finish Line where a full size run is available.

Nike Air More Uptempo “Olympic” Re-Release
Not much information is available yet, but it appears that we will see a Nike Air More Uptempo “Olympic” release date in the near future. The shoe of course features a navy/white colorway, inspired by Scottie Pippen’s stint on the Dream Team, and the Pip’s Olympic number, eight. It apparently will be a House of Hoops exclusive and is one of those releases. You know, the ones that sell out the second the doors open.

Nike SB Dunk Mid Black/White-Gumsole
This is about as classic as it gets; the Nike SB Dunk Mid Black/White-Gumsole, which should be arriving at SB retailers any day now. This shoe has three major things going for it: a classic black/white colorway, the always-tight gumsole and the strapless mid silhouette. (That version with the strap is questionable … at best.) Look for these at SB retailers now.

Air Jordan 13 "Flint"
A certifiable classic, the “Flints” have only been brought back one time since their OG release. Flint Grey is in place along the mudguard, midsole and surrounding the beloved Jumpman hologram. Meanwhile, the 3M-backed quarter panel is likely French Blue, though we’re still waiting on an official color code confirmation, similar to the“Powder” AJ9 vs. University Blue AJ9 situation earlier this year. This year has already brought us a number of anticipated retro releases from Jordan Brand. Will you be one of the first in line to grab a pair of these come their release?Yours Truly
