  • Nike Skateboarding January 2009 Releases
    By on January 11th, 2009 | No Comments Comments

    Nike Skateboarding January releases are an exciting collection. There is a wide range of colors to cater to every taste. Please look for these shoes at Nike to buy them.

    The Nike Zoom Air Veloce releases offer a simple black/white colorway and a white/black/red colorway. The black/white shoe has a suede upper. The swoosh is leather. The back of the heel is covered in netting fabric. The collar of the ankle has a thick fabric. Its partner in black/white/red has similar features. The red accents make the white upper look brighter.

    Nike P-Rod 2 has a black forest and lemon drop colorway. This offers the traits of the Paul Rodriguez signature shoe. The black forest green is a good color for spring. The lemon yellow portion has a pattern on its leather to make it look textured.

    The Premium Blazer has a purple colorway with black Nike swoosh. The leather is “grainy” in appearance and outstanding on the plain purple suede.

    The “Twin Peaks” Dunk Hi is all black with minimal accents. I like the embroidered figure as the best feature on the shoe. The seams are outlined in green thread to highlight the portions. (Images)

    Air Jordan 2009: The Review
    In New York, Michael Jordan speaks himself that the Air Jordan 2009 is a new beginning and legacy. If this was to be named Air Jordan XX4 then it would overshadow the number 23 for Air Jordan XX3. This was designed by Jason Mayden whom was inspired by Fencing in conceptualizing the shoe. For the upper he made overall design contours of the foot more evident that gives superior responsiveness and quick reaction time with maximum support. Pleating on a satin upper reinforces the durable construction of the shoe for a floor lockdown grip. The Achilles tendon is hugged by various foam inserts in the heel area. It’s also breathable to make the moisture wick due to the special liner in the shoe. For the midsole, the heel employs cutting edge Articulated Propulsion Technology that makes the athlete have a way to propel forward with stunning explosiveness. The split heel allows further flexibility in moving to various positions at one time. The Carbon fiber plate, TPU (Thermo Plastic Urethane), and Articulated forefoot Zoom Air unit cushions foot to maximize comfort. The outsole grooves fit with the grooves of the foot for further traction.
