Nike Air Flight 89 â€œBlack Suedeâ€
By SneakerFreak on December 31st, 2007 | No Comments

This Air Flight 89 has a new, remake look. Â Hangtime sells this shoe at the estimated price range between 13,800Yen-15,800Yen.

The shoe upper is in black suede. The other parts of the sneaker are in black leather. The Nike swoosh is a light colored black. The shoe has details in the number of panels. For example, the outline boundary just below the swoosh is a strip of black leather. It looks good as an accent that blends in while showing the detail of the shoe.

As the shoe is all black, the designer has included a very subtle touch of color and function. Light blue reflective strips are added to cross the shoe upper in a naturally flowing line. It resembles the flow of a trickle of water.

Users can expect to take flight with this shoeâ€™s advance technology. The air cushion is exposed and you can peek at it at the side of the upper sole.

I like the suede in the shoe. It helps to add a nice looking touch to a sneaker. I would recommend this shoe for all purposes. Due to its classic color and design, it can be worn for a variety of formal and casual occasions.

A few days ago, we wrote about the Playoffs Edition of these shoes, now we have the first colorway of the Nike Air Jordan Force XII Fusion available – White-Black-Taxi.

These are set to officially drop on next week, but you can get them right now at some select shops as well as on eBay. They are running about $145-$165 a pair. These kicks are a fusion between an Air Force 1 and the Air Jordan XII.

The texture black leather on the toe and stark white leather throughout combine for a nice looking shoe.

Greedy Genius Lumberjack Pack
By SneakerFreak on December 30th, 2007 | No Comments

Like many other shoe companies are doing this winter, Greedy Genius has recently released a Lumberjack Pack featuring colorful plaid that we see in flannel shirts worn by lumberjacks.

Greedy Genius took four of their popular models – Primo, Cool Breeze, Phantom and Paratrooper and dressed them up using different colors of plaid. These shoes combine leather, suede and even touches of snake embossed patent leather to create very interesting shoes.

The Primo version above dubbed “Roho” is my favorite in the pack. The low sneaker combines simple styling with the typical red plaid material. This shoe is available right now at Karmaloop for just $90.

Also in the pack is a red/black high Cool Breeze and the same shoe in grey as well. These shoes retail for about $120.

Another favorite in the pack is the low Phantom called “Blue Foot” which uses black snake embossed patent throughout the blue/white plaid shoe. This good looking sneaker is just $100 at Karmaloop.

You can find these and several other shoes from the Lumberjack Pack right now at Greedy Genius retailers.

Nike AF1 Charcoal/Zest
By SneakerFreak on December 30th, 2007 | No Comments

2007 marks the 25^th anniversary of Air Force One (AF1). This shoe belongs to the new AF1 collection for 2008. It is available in Nike1Love.

This Charcol / Zest AF1 will be officially launched in a few days’ time, in Jan. 2008. It has a charcoal black shoe upper and a zest sole. It imitates the iconic Air Max 95 by using similar colors and looks.

The toe box has perforations. The yellow mid-sole is a very good color as it forms a striking combination with the shoe’s color. I like the grey accents in the Nike swoosh and shoe laces. There are line markers sewn into the shoe upper to show the different panels of the shoe. This is a feature of design that creates the interesting boundaries of the different panels.

The tongue is in bright yellow. It has a ring that the shoe lace can thread through. This is quite a surprise because in the grey shoe laces, this yellow ring / band suddenly pops up for the shoe lace to pass through.

The grey Nike swoosh has yellow thread machined along its outline to accentuate the outline. The heel has a transparent patch where the air cushion is embedded. This is part of the well planned design to show the uniqueness of the Nike shoe.
