This year Nike introduced the concept of new vintage sneakers with the vintage running series. The series gave classic Nike running shoes new life, but with a clearly worn look. The idea has been such a hit that we then got word that Nike would be continuing the vintage theme and taking it to Basketball with a release of Vandals and Terminator vintage style kicks. Nike has now added the Nike Dunk to the list of basketball kicks getting the worn vintage treatment. Nike is marketing the series of Dunks as the “Be True” The College Colors Program”. The kicks pictured represent the College basketball teams of Michigan University, Syracuse, Iowa State, St, Johns and Kentucky. Also slated to be included in the pack are UNLV, NC Sate, and the University of Arizona. The kicks will release in 2008.
Update: The kicks will release in France on the 7th of January exclusively at Colette and then will receive a much wider release to shops all over the country.

The countdown to the Air Jordan XX3 release is on with the sneaker scheduled to drop in 2008. Low Quality images of the kicks are circulating around the net, with mixed reviews thus far. However the Air Jordan XX3 and the Air Jordan Countdown pack are not the only thing the Jordan Brand has in store for next year for 23rd anniversary of the Air Jordan. A basketball is scheduled for release with a vintage feel, laser etching and Jordan imagery. Look for these in 2008.
For those who would argue that sneakers are like a fine bottle of wine, they must be aged to perfection to be fully enjoyed, Nike has the perfect offering for you. Like this year we saw a range of Nike Vintage Running shoes which mimicked the look of sneakers which have been aged and slightly worn, vintage basketball kicks will be released. Here are some new images of the Nike Terminator, which we previously showed you. In 2008 expect a number of Nike Vandals and Terminators aged vintage style sneakers to release.
