Lebron VI Akron Release
Leading the way on a big weekend of releases is the Lebron VI Akron, at House of Hoops. The shoe drops ahead of the weekend releases on Friday 3/13 (everything else hits Saturday, stay tuned for specifics). This hometown tribute has an upper detailed like an urban mural with an Akron city-scape, which is set off by a very clean white toe-box. With all of the Lebron VI color-ups hitting, this one stands out as a real winner. Detailed shots after the jump, enjoy.

AJ1 Hi blue-sapphire
To compliment the blue accents on the AJ1 Velcro Premiums, these retro Jordan 1 Highs are almost entirely blue-sapphire. Hitting all three House of Hoops stores the same day, 3/14, swing by and pick up a pair to add to your retro collection. Majority of the shoe is covered in an eye-popping blue-sapphire nylon, with a white midsole to break up the blue connection to the outsole. These are completely different from previous AJ1 Hi releases, thanks to the beautiful color and uncommon nylon material, so make sure to cop. Check out additional shots after the jump.
Big Nike Foamposite Hitting House of Hoops This Month
You saw it with the Hyperize Decade Pack, iconic Nike shoes reapplied to different models, and now we have a Big Nike Foamposite hitting House of Hoops locations in the next few weeks. It takes the classic eggplant Foamposite and applies it to a Big Nike silhouette. It has a blacked out midsole and laces, with a grey speckle outsole. The large print Nike on the heel, which is the namesake of the model, is black as well with a grey stroke. For more shots check the Gallery.
AJ1 Velcro Premium Low jetstream/blue
Jordan 1’s are hot in every style and colorway, even if they’re rockin’ Velcro straps. These jetstream/blue premium lows are dropping 3/14 at all three House of Hoops locations. Most shoes can’t pull off Velcro straps without laces, but that’s definitely not the case with these. The upper and toebox are predominantly a jetstream color, appearing as metallic leather, with blue-sapphire accents such as the logos found on the toebox and heel. Overall, they’re simple but the unique straps and metallic appearance make them a must have. More store shots below.
SuperSonics Pack Release Reminder
The SuperSonics edition is the second to last championship series pack to hit select Foot Lockers, Footactions and all three House of Hoops stores tomorrow, 3/14. Each pack represents Jordan’s greatest NBA memories as a Chicago Bull, so make sure to pick up as many as possible. If you happen to miss out on the first four packs, no worries… the last pack, Utah Jazz, is dropping next weekend, 3/28. Each consists of both home and away colorways of the AJ1 Phat Low, with a compliment of a Jordan Six Rings. Check out the gallery for individual shots from each edition.
Nike Zoom Skyposite Amare Stoudemire Coming in December
Performance basketball shoes are getting lighter and lighter, and the new Nike Zoom Skyposite is no exception. This new Amare Stoudemire PE will hit House of Hoops in December. It features a black gradient upper which blends into the purple lunar-lite midsole. The signature Amare Stoudemire “AS” is in purple over the black tongue and laces. For more shots check the Gallery.
Sky Force Mid LE
In April, House of Hoops will have a wht/wht/mts Sky Force Mid LE . The shoe’s upper shines with patent leather, and the laces sparkle like glitter (see Rudy Gay’s childhood basketball). The translucent light blue sole also has some sparkle to it. More shots in the gallery.
Air Griffey Max 1 Release Reminder
As mentioned in January, the Griffey’s were expected to drop sometime in March. They’ll begin hitting select Foot Locker and Footaction locations this week. The wht/water/v.red/blk is only one of two hot color-ups, so you have some variety on the way. Rock a pair of these for now, and when May comes around cop the more vibrant, summer-like vroyal/blk/volt colorway. It’s been almost thirteen years since the sneaker’s original release so make sure to pick up this retro before it’s too late. Stay posted for the May release details, which are right around the corner.
