New from Brand Jordan, the Campus Chukka creates a more prescribed appeal rather than a sporty look. With an anthracite suede upper, the chukka would be perfect for either a formal or casual garb, and the White/Black midsole remains a neutral accent. The Jordan Campus Chukka will be released on the 1^st of June at selected Brand Jordan retailers.

S4 of Sole Creations created the Alpha Kappa Alpha Adidas Superstar II for his girlfriend. The Alpha Kappa Alpha Superstar II celebrate her membership in the noted sorority back in 2001. I found these photos at the Sole Creations Customsnkr.com blog linked here.

The Alpha Kappa Alpha Adidas Superstar II are covered in inside jokes and personal references that are delightful to view. The left heel features “Alpha Kappa Alpha” in black cursive lettering and the sorority’s founding date (1908) set against a pink backdrop. The right exterior features block lettering that says “AKAtude” to represent the sorority’s attitude.

The interior side of the left heel has the year 2001 printed in pink to represent the wearer’s first year of membership. S4 added inside elements like an exaggerated “Skee!” call and a pinkie held up in the air for his girlfriend’s benefit. I love the pink and green checkerboard pattern on the tongue that tops off these custom Adidas Superstar II. As graduation season comes and goes, we will think about our own school experiences. The Alpha Kappa Alpha Adidas Superstar II may reference a single person’s experiences but they represent our memories of the best times at school.
