    Exclusive’ />

    Finishline just released two new exclusive colorways of the Air Jordan Flight 23.

    The grey version takes its color inspiration from the grey Air Jordan IX and the white edition from the Air Jordan
    VIII.

    The Air Jordan Flight 23 offers full grain leather combined with some synthetics in the midfoot and heel for breathability. I really love the grey colorway and think it should definitely get some attention.

    Grab either of these colorways at Finishline now for $117.99.

    Admiral Royal Navy

    I know everyone is mad about plaid this year, but I don’t see the appeal in these particular plaid shoes that will release later this year from Admiral.

    The Admiral Royal Navy is a high top sneaker that is secured like a double breasted suit with two vertical rows of buttons. I’m not sure who would want to take the time to button up these shoes, when they aren’t very good looking. What do you think?

    They come in two colorways – both plaid of course. One features a blue toe and the other a green toe. These are expected to hit the shelves in September.Via Hypebeast.

  • Custom Nikes Modeled after Jordan VII Raptors

    These custom Nike SBs were created by an amateur designer whose friend was not keen on the yellow fade underneath the swoosh. You can check out the original shoes after this post for comparison’s sake. I think that the switch from yellow to purple underneath the swoosh alters the appearance of the shoe in a negative way.

    I understand that bright yellow is not the favorite color for many sneaker fans. The problem with changing from a contrasting color to a matching color under the swoosh is that the shoe’s signature mark is lost. Another layer of purple paint will turn the back half of these shoes into a big mess.

    The designer wanted to model these shoes after the Jordan VII Raptors but I think he missed the mark. There is something to be said for keeping a shoe with garish colors intact if the alternative is creating a mess. I hope that the designer who posted this on Nike Talk improves on his work in the future by thinking about the reasoning behind the manufacturer’s colorways and designs.
