If only Michael Jordan tried skating instead of a swing-and-miss baseball career, he’d probably be rocking these Supra Cruizer’s. The low-profile sneaker that’s full of skate-tech has been known to resemble iconic Jordans, and for Supra’s Spring 08 collection look out for this make-up that garners inspiration from the Grape Vs.

No hard release date yet, but expect specialty Supra retailers, including Factory 413 to stock them for about $70, once they do drop.

This February, Vans will continue the Bad Brains collaboration that it originally put together with the help of Supreme last spring. The updated line will go into broader release, with a series of T shirts and three footwear models: a ‘46 LE, a Sk-8 Hi LE, and a Chukka Boot LX.

Bad Brains, if you don’t know, isn’t new. They came up in the Washington D.C. hardcore scene, and made spots like NYC’s CBGBs famous. Meet any lost child of the 80s or 90s and they’ll tell you that Bad Brains saved their life. If you don’t want to ask, or don’t want to sit through an hour of muddled explanations, check out the Wikipedia. Or, if you know, and you’re down, petitition Obama to have them play his inauguration here.

Check the jump for the full announcement and get ready and wait. February is further away than you think.
