2009 might very well go down in sneaker history as the year of the hybrid, despite all the splashes made by Nike Dunk’s and Air Max 95’s. Well, here is yet another mash-up brought to you by Nike. The Nike Vunk pictured here draws cues from the Nike Dunk and applies it to the tongue, toe box, and sole. It also draws cues from the Nike Air Max 95, as seen on the mid panel and heel. Although these will only fit those of you who have (comparatively) small feet, no one should be surprised if Nike drops more of these in men’s sizes. These can be scooped up online now.

Just last week we informed you of a Nike Dunk High to be released in a Black/Sail colorway. Well, we’ve already come across what looks like that sneaker’s twin brother- the Nike Dunk High in a similar Obsidian/Sail colorway. This dunk sports the same “sail” colorway on the upper, but contains dark obsidian nylon material on the toe box, side panels, and inner lining. Moreover, this version’s sole is white, has a dark blue Nike check, dark blue laces, and still sits atop a bubble gum outsole. Expect these to drop at Nike retailers in February of 2010.

Last year, the world famous Nike brand celebrated three storied NCAA basketball programs with the release of the Dunk Rivalry Pack. In said pack, three different colorways were beautifully executed to pay homage to Big East powerhouses Georgetown & Syracuse as well as the ACC’s monster UNC squad. Thanks to fellow sneaker aficionados, speculation can now begin to run rampant regarding what seems to be Nike’s next “rivarly” collection.

It seems as though, this time around, Nike has in mind to use the world-renowned Nike Air Force 1 as well as the Nike Dunk to celebrate a different rivalry. From what we can tell so far, each shoe in the collection will sport some amount of snake skin, represent either the East or West (as represented on the tongue), and celebrate a specific sport (as represented through the head of a cartoon character that can be found inside each shoe). There are also rumors that certain big-name DJ’s like Clark Kent and sneaker icons like Eddie Cruz will have their input on any number of shoes that release as a part of what seems to shaping up as an “East vs. West Rivalry Pack.” We will make sure to update the world as more information becomes available. Until that time, which pictured sneaker peaks your interest the most? Much more after the jump.

For sneakerheads all over, learning of an upcoming release for the first time usually provides a measure of excitement- regardless even of whether or not we end up liking what we see. The Nike Dunk has become such a mainstay in the sneaker world that the aforementioned situation almost always applies to this sneaker model. Well, Nike follows up news of an ostentatious Metallic Pack with news of yet another Nike Dunk Hi. The Dunk pictured here is made up of a multicolored upper and base, nylon material, leather Nike check, and “bubble gum” bottom. These are sure to induce anyone walking by you to look at least twice. This model will release in January at House of Hoops and other select Nike retailers, so you can’t say you didn’t have enough time to save up.

As we were recently reminded, Nike releases seemingly continue to be influenced by the iconic, fictional Japanese Ultraman character. Well, pictured here is a Nike Dunk Low that sports a metallic silver similar to that found on Ultraman’s suit. Accented with red near the heel, toebox, and lace holes, this color scheme might resemble the hero’s trademark color combination more than any Nike release drawing comparisons to Ultraman’s outfit. For those of you eager to hold your very own pair of these Dunk Low’s, eBay should have you covered.

Nike Sportswear shops are restocking three classic Nike Dunk colorways starting in January 2010 at select locations worldwide. The Retro will return in white/varsity blue, white/varsity red, and white/varsity orange and feature mesh and textured leather middle panels. There’s no word yet on how much these will yield at retail, but expect to see the Nike Dunk at select Nike Sportswear locations early next year.

As the seasons change, so too might Nike be ringing in the Fall months with more conservative- although still stylish- colorways. Set to drop this new Tier Zero pack very soon, Nike shakes things up with a less traditional, all-white sole that seems to be made of a rubber material. Furthermore, each shoe consists of a single, solid color canvas base and leather swoosh. Nike is no stranger to the solid color shoe, but putting it all on top of a white sole could very well have been the added component that’ll drive so many necks to turn. Be sure to keep up with your local Nike retailers as these two pairs of Nike Dunk Highs become available nationwide. Check out more pics after the jump.
