The Nike Zoom Soldier IV has started to hit retailers in the white/black/red colorway.

However, the USA version will be dropping soon this fall season. The white upper is accented with a dot pattern that makes patriotic references such as starts and stripes. The dark obsidian midsole houses Nike’s Zoom Air in the forefoot and an Air Max bag in the heel. Red accents are used on parts of the shoe including the Swoosh border, L23 logo, heel stripe and Air Bag.

Are you excited for this classic colorway to drop or are the Zoom Soldier IVs at the bottom of your must have list?

Next up in the Air Jordan Fusion Line which meshes a numbered Air Jordan model with an Air Force One (1) is the Air Jordan Fusion IV (4). Up to now, we have not seen too many detailed pictures of the sneaker, and some key changes have definitely been made since we originally previewed the sneaker earlier in the year. As most sneakerheads can tell by first glance, this AJF4 is inspired by the “Military Blue” Air Jordan IV (4). Featuring a white upper with neutral grey accents and a military blue Air Force 1 sole, this pair is extremely similar to the Air Jordan 4 that released in 2006. The Air Jordan Fusion IV (4) series is set to debut in the coming months, so be sure to stay tuned for updates.

Earlier today, Kobe Bryant and his fellow Los Angeles Lakers came to Quicken Loans Arena to take on the Cleveland Cavaliers. Though Kobe Bryant was reported to be ill and needed intravenous fluids at halftime, his Lakers pulled through with a 101-91 victory with notable performances from Odom and Gasol. Though the game was exciting, the true excitement was brought while sneakerheads compared the two supertars’ sneaker choices. Lebron James showed up with a new Fairfax Nike Zoom Lebron VI (6), while Kobe started the game with the Carpe Diem Nike Zoom Kobe IV (4) and switched to the Venom KBIV at the quarter break. Even though Bryant’s sneaker switch is quite an interesting topic, most sneakerheads stared in awe at what James was rocking. This is our first look at the Fairfax colorway of the Zoom Lebron VI and it looks quite promising.

Now the choice is yours. Who do you think won the sneaker matchup—Kobe Bryant or Lebron James? Check out detailed pictures of both pairs after the ‘jump!’ Pictures via Yahoo.

Five months have passed since the USA “Redeem Team” took home the gold medal in the Summer Olympics in Bejing, but we are now getting a first look at an Air Jordan IV made exclusively for Carmelo Anthony in celebration of the win. This AJ4 is extremely unique to say the least and would most definitely sell like hotcakes if it was ever released.  Featuring delicate laser print on top of a navy blue leather base, this pair sports an elegant, yet stylish feel. Also yielding red wing tips, a white midsole, a red outsole, and white netting, these sneakers are obviously inspired by the typical USA colors of red, white, and blue. Sorry to break your dreams, but these will most likely never be released and these pictures are as close as you will ever get to holding them.

Jordan Brand began releasing fusions in 2008 and it is becoming quite obvious that they will continue their newest trend throughout this new year. The latest product of this “love it or hate it” Force Fusion line is the Air Jordan Force Fusion IV which merges characteristics of the Air Jordan 4 with the classic body and midsole of the Air Force 1. This pair is inspired by the AJ4 and any fan of the Jordan numbered line will quickly realize the resemblance. Featuring wings, netting, a shoe lace region, and a back heel tab reminiscent of the Air Jordan IV, this pair will will hit home with the AF1 fans through the use of the classic toebox and midsole which includes Nike’s patented clear air bubble. Another key aspect of this sneaker which we have not seen before is the placement of a Nike Swoosh behind the netting on the upper.

After the jump, you can check out larger pictures of three colorways of the Air Jordan Force Fusion IV which are all derived from popular Air Jordan IV colorways. The first of these colorways comes from the Fire Red Air Jordan IV and features a white upper with red and black accents. The second is inspired by the Military AJ4 and yields a white upper with blue accents and a cream midsole. The third and final colorway takes inspiration from the “Bred” Air Jordan 4 and comes with a black base accented by a partially red outsole and a grey midsole. Please remember that none of these colorways are confirmed by Jordan Brand, but the odds of these releasing in the upcoming months are high. From what we hear, these will be begin releasing in early July of 2009, but be sure to stay tuned for updates. Via NT.
