    Nike 6.0 BMX Mavrk Low 2

    Nike, the most renowned sportswear brand of the world prepares to release the new Nike 6.0 BMX Mavrk Low 2. Nike 6.0 is a sub brand of Nike focused on actions sport lifestyle such as surf, skates, snowboard etc while Nike SB covers only the world of skateboarding.

    Like the design of original Mavrk Low, the new Nike 6.0 BMX Mavrk Low 2 also uses a simple suede upper on top of a white vulcanized sole. Nike releases this sneaker in several colorways including beautiful ‘Tiffany’ suede. Red suede and grey suede along with other simple colorways will be also available.

    The Nike 6.0 BMX Mavrk Low 2 features ‘Flexi-Wrap’-the latest innovation of Nike. After the creation of Nike Dunk Gyrizo which was a project only for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, Nike realized the need of a BMX specified product. In design the Nike 6.0 Mavrk Low 2 is very similar to Nike SB series. To perfect the design of previously released Mavrk Low Nike and Nike 6.0 introduced vulcanized rubber sole with Phylon midsole for shock absorption. Inspired by Nike Free, the introduction of Flexi-Wrap outsole is the most crucial addition. The concept came when designers realized that the action of paddling is similar to that of walking or running. Basically Flexi-Wrap is a sport specific outsole made of eight articulated pieces while each piece can pivot back or forward individually.  The sole will also appear in other Nike 6.0 line such as Mavrk mid-2, Dunk SE and Brazen.

    Just want to buy a pair of Nike Blazer Mid – Micro Perf Swoosh Pack right now? Nike Blazer Mid – Micro Perf Swoosh Pack.


    Innovation-wise, the Nike Blazer Mid is never left behind. As an iconic model, it does not dwell on its classic design but improves current attributes. In this way, there evolves a distinction between the former release and the latest drop.

    For instance, the originally leather Swoosh has now transformed into micro perforations forming along the side panel. Although not a new feature on Nike sneakers, this is a fresh attribute to the Blazer Mid. Aside from the Swoosh that has been modified the lace panels also receive woven detailing that adds points to become a superb-looking piece. The woven trait does not end up there but continues to appear on the toe box and tongue. Leather mudguard is used though for a tougher support.

    Nike drops this unique pack in yellow/black and brown/white colorways. If you love the perforated Swoosh effect, you can cop a pair that can be spotted first at China’s NikeStore.

    For over two decades, Super Mario Bros. was the best-selling video game of all time and it was largely responsible for the initial success of the Nintendo Entertainment System. As one of Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka’s most influential early successes, it has inspired many clones, sequels, and spin-offs. The game’s theme music by Koji Kondo is recognized worldwide, even by those who have not played the game, and has been considered a representation for video game music in general.

    After 25 years of entertaining kids and adults alike with Mario and brother Luigi travel through the Mushroom Kingdom in order to rescue Princess Toadstool from the antagonist Bowser, Nintendo finally celebrates success by tying-up with Converse for a special project called the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star x Super Mario Bros. This brings two pairs of the legendary Chucks in black and white colorways with upper printed with images of the original 8-bit Mario occupying the entire canvas. The Converse Chuck Taylor All Star patch flaunts along the lower side of the collar with eyelets that are done up in silver. Traditional durable Converse sole is applied.

    This duo will land on the shelves in Japan on July, and expect it to go on sale.
