We’ve seen Bape release their own boots before, but never with such a Western influence than these Bape Space Soldiers. The Bape Space Soldier Boot combines the old cowboy boot style with modern Japanese style, to make some boots that appeal to many a few. The Space Soldiers come in two colorways: tan and black, using suede and leather, respectively. Check out the subtle camo print at the back and let us know if you’re feeling these out-of-this-world boot release from Bape.

Although we know very little information known about the new Nike Hyperdunk Low models we’ve seen popping up over the last couple of months, the one thing we are counting on is the low-top version of the popular performance sneaker making its way into storefronts by early-mid 2010. Of the many scans and samples spotted, the latest is this low version of the exclusive Kobe Bryant Snake Pool PE Hyperdunk.  No news on any drop dates, but if the release is as limited as its predecessor’s, you might have a tough time getting your hands on a pair. Collectors can try their luck with Marquee Sole’s limited Men’s US 8.5 stock.

In June of this year we brought you a look at the Air Jordan I Retro Mid Ruff N Tuff – Quai 54, which only released abroad. Despite no stateside release, many sneakerheads showed the AJ I a lot of love because of things such as the laser print on the inner lining. Well, there is now a preview shot of another Air Jordan I retro that dons laser print and is reportedly dropping in 2010. Seen here, the Air Jordan I comes in a white upper/midsole with a laser pattern on the mid panel, black suede on the heel, red suede near the ankle lining, and red patent leather where the Air Jordan wings logo is located. What are your thoughts on this possible 2010 release by team Jordan Brand of the Air Jordan I retro? Is the mix of materials used on the silhouette a positive or negative in your mind? Let us know what you’re thinking after the jump.

We here at SneakerFiles kicked off September by bringing our readers word of an online History of Flight database that you can check out on the Jumpman23 website. A similar project is now on display at New York City’s famous NikeTown location where every Air Jordan- except for the still unreleased AJ2010- that is a part of Michael Jordan’s signature series (AJ I through AJ2009) is shown in a white/red/sunset colorway that has not been seen before, although it is bound to remind many of us of the white/fire red – sunset – dark cinder women’s Air Jordan V retroed three years ago. For those of you who either won’t have a chance to visit the store or don’t sense that they would ever get tired of the eye candy, check us out after the jump for pictures of this collection that have now surfaced on the internet. Which, if any, of the Air Jordan sneakers on display at NikeTown would you most want Jordan Brand to release?
