Supra just shipped this latest purple/brown colorway of the Vaider, so expect it in West Coast shops this weekend, and on the East Coast early next week. According to the company site, the shoe has:

* High top upper with a vulcanized sole
* Extra heel protection molded into comfortable high memory polyurethane insole
* SupraFoam® midsole providing entire foot impact resistance, optimal shoe flex, and board feel
* New metal sliding tongue logo
* Ankle support
* PU leather lining
* BK mesh sock liner

All of that makes them comfortable, and skateable, but we all know you’re buying them because of Jay-Z.

adidas Tobacco (black)

The adidas Tobacco was lost in the adidas archives for a bit, and for Spring, the three stripes is bringing it back slimmed up, and subtle. These kicks just dropped, and are perfect for just about anything, even more so if you’re trying to rock sneakers with some fashion-ed up stuff. The first colorway of the adidas Tobacco is out now, in limited distribution. Look for them at adidas Originals Stores (that’s where we grabbed these), or higher-end boutiques that stock the three. Tone it down, homies, and look for a gray/gray/gray March 1st.

Very nice, very classy. Hit the jump for the detail shots, or hit eBay if you are the Jay-Z size 10.5 - these just went on sale.

Divided Footwear for H&M

We’ve been a little harsh in the past when talking about garmento produced sneaker takeoffs, but we have to give props to Divided for these recession-friendly Gold mid-tops. Stocked in H&M stores around the country right now, the Lanvin-esque fashion shoes, clock in at a measly $25. Yeah, we’re not kidding $24.90. Even if you wear them once, they’ll be worth the investment. Check detailed shots that would make Paris fashion-week goers cop below…

Nike Sportswear GTS ‘09 Canvas

The swoosh is king here in sneaker land, and the daily influx of $100+ kicks can be daunting. Not that you’re going to buy every pair, but sometimes its nice to see a pair of sneakers that you can cop with the money you save on taking a night off at the bar or by downgrading your restaurant choice on a date with your girl.

These Nike Sportswear GTS ‘09 Canvas are a perfect spring sneaker, and they come in at the perfect price: $55! How sick is that? I can feel these on my feet and the warmth of Spring already. Well, not really, it’s actually brick ass cold outside, but I just cued up a beach screensaver on the ‘ol MacBook. Hit the jump for detail shots of these bangers, and check nikesportswear.com for retailers if you want to cop them. These just hit stores, so full size runs should be in stock this weekend.
