Crooks & Castles x Vans Fremont
While hipsters will stick with Eras and Authentics, the hood will be all over this Crooks & Castles x Vans collabo that just became available. This Gucci-colored Fremont High marks the first mash-up between the Crooks and the veteran skate brand, and with the hype machine behind them expect them to sell out quickly. Be one of the first ones to score a pair for $85, by clicking HERE.

Supra NS Skytop Burgundy
Supra seems to flood the market just as much as Lil Wayne these days; probably the reason why the two get along so well. Yesterday we reminded you to check for the Purple/Brown Vaiders, but if shiny patent leather is what you’re into, lock down this Burgundy Pack.
The set of three consists of a Strapped, Trinity, and Muska’s Skytop. Factory 413’s e-commerce shop has them now, with prices clocking in at $164 (Skytop), $168 (Trinity) and $172 (Strapped). Decisions, decisions, choose your favorite and get it HERE. Hit the jump for images of the other two sneakers from the pack.

etnies Plus Tribute
We don’t know a whole lot about this release, but the etnies Plus Tribute is looking like an April delivery to boutique accounts. The Plus line is usually a little questionable (it’s the line where they let the designers go nuts), but this new silhouette seems like a perfect balance of etnies styling and elevated thinking. Hit the jump for bigger photos, we’ll update with info when we get it.

Nike Air Trainer III LE (Light Charcoal/Volt)
Nike always seems to hit hard, so we’re not going to try making projections as far as “what they’re doing for spring.” What we can tell you though, is that this Air Trainer III LE will be part of a pack dropping in early April for $110 at the 21 Mercer Flagship in NY, nikesportswear.com, and other Quickstrike accounts across the U.S.
Volt is the colorway first seen on the Lunar Racers from last summer. Bo knows ballistics, and those neon hits are going to light up your life. Hit the jump for detail shots of these Springtime bangers, and check back here in a month or so for the rest of the pack when it gets a little closer to drop time.

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.

adidas Forum MID NBA All Star Weekend EASTSIDE Promo Edition
All-Star weekend is in effect everyone, and the sate of Arizona can now be declared a war zone. If you’re crazy enough to go down there, and connected enough to get invited to an East Coast adidas gifting suite, check these Forum Mids that are getting gifted to VIPs. Instead of going to crazy person route, a la Nike’s AF1s, adidas decided to go cool guy with it, keeping the flash subtle.
These Forums feature embroidery on the sneakers, snakeskin velcro strap, and a subtle white 3M on the toe cap and the lace holes to give it a little hit in the light or a lot of hit in a nightclub. 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.

DC x Agnes B. Double Label™ Project
DC Shoes is teaming up with French fashion label Agnes B. as part of its ongoing Double Label™ Project series of footwear collaborations. This shoe is set to drop on March 15th at Agnes B. stores and online at dcshoes.com for $130. An installation at the Agnes B. flagships is in the works, probably for some time closer to April 1. If a pearly/metallic blue sneaker is a bit much, look for it to drop in a khaki and black colorway at the same time.
Hit the jump for detail shots, the leather on this puppy is buttery!

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.
