Brands have been using holidays (large and small) as inspiration for certain sneaker colorways and models. adidas, for example, recently prepared a Superstar II in which to celebrate Christmas. But the shoes pictured here are perhaps a part of a holiday still far away. We bring you shots of a Nike Court Force and Vandal that are rumored as being part of 2010’s Valentine’s Day collection. Both shoes come in a high-top model, with the Court Force upper consisting of both patent leather and plaid. Moreover, the Court Force has a heart sketched onto the tongue- a good indication of the holiday it might be released during. The Vandal also consists of a plaid patterning on both the mid panels and the toe box, with a touch of patent leather lining. If these are in fact part of Nike’s Valentine’s Day collection next year, they definitely stray from the conventional pink/red/white colorways, but is that necessarily a bad thing? How do you sneakerheads feel with respect to these two pairs of Nike sneakers?

With all the love Nike is showing the ladies by way of the Dunk High Skinny and Air Force 1 High, for example, this shouldn’t surprise you. The Nike Court Force High has also joined the female bandwagon with the pair pictured here, which gets its nickname from the grid pattern that can be seen on some of the upper’s panels. The rest of the shoe comes in a royal blue/black colorway with white midsole and black shoe laces. Having been released by certain overseas retailers, expect these to hit stateside soon as well. For now, you can enjoy more pix after the jump.

Some of the more recent news involving the Nike Court Force came way back in the beginning of summer when a very clean royal blue/black colorway was applied to the shoe and reminded us many of the unforgettable royal blue/black Air Jordan I’s. Well, the shoe is back, times two, as part of a Nike Egypt Pack. One pair seems to sport pearlized material that makes the predominantly red upper pop out. It is inspired by the Egyptian Scarabeus beetle- pictured on the tongue. The second pair draws inspiration from the Egyptian Eye of Horus- also pictured on the tongue of this pair that comes in a predominantly white base with gold, vibrant green, and hot red accents. Dropping at select in-store Nike retailers, some online ones already have these two pairs of Nike Court Force’s in stock.

Just last week we reported on a Cradle Rock Low Supreme pack that released throughout Asia and looked pretty difficult to get a hold of. BUT- thank you, Nike. SneakerFiles brings you the following update: this Friday, September 18th, 2009, the pack will be available for purchase at Nike House of Hoops location in the U.S. With Japan (red), China (green), the Philippines (blue), and a best friend of mine’s homeland of Thailand (yellow/tan) receiving praise through this collection, those who live here but are from anyone of those places (or even just like them/their colorways) can try and cop a pair without jumping on a flight out of here. Lastly, many forget or don’t know that Steve Nash had a collaborative hand in this release. Which country’s do you guys think looks best?

With the plethora of mens sneaker releases from Nike, it is quite impressive that they never fail to impress their female fans as well. This time around, Nike has designed a pack composed of an Air Max Light and a Court Force High. Both pairs’ color schemes are inspired by the Miami Dolphins, and thus feature white upper with orange, blue, and gold accents. Though a NFL team is not a typical inspiration for a womens sneaker, Nike is known for their unique designs. The Nike Womens Miami Dolphins Pack is set to release in the Winter of 2009, so be sure to stay tuned for updates.
