    Alife Holiday 2007 Footwear Collection

    Alife just released their Holiday Footwear Collection at their stores in New York, Los Angeles and Vancouver, as well as at American Rag, Barneys, Bloomingdales, Fred Segal, Conveyor and Commonwealth.

    This Holiday collection includes the Ski Pack, Lumberjack Pack and Rain Pack.

    The Ski Pack features two version of the Everybody Flood, one in brown and one in off-white. I particularly like the brown edition (pictured above), which you can wear instead of a brown boot.

    The Lumberjack Pack also features two shoes – an Everybody Low and an Everybody High. These shoes are in a red and black flannel. The Lumberjack Pack looks perfect for the cold winter.

    The fifth shoe in the collection is the shiny yellow Everybody High Rain Pack. This slick looking shoe reminds you of a rain boot. The bright yellow is contrasted by sleek black.These are my favorite shoes in the collection, though they are definitely too bright for everyday wear.

    Nike Air Classic BW Black/Red

    The Nike Air Classic BW Black/Red is a new release. It is available at Nike stores and pickyourshoes. The cost is around $80 per pair.

    The sneaker upper has regular black leather and textured black leather. The Nike swoosh has shiny, red leather. This red accent can also be found in the inner lining of the sneaker and the outer sole. The outer sole is made of carbon rubber.

    The traditional Max Air cushion in the heel can be seen. The Air Max logo appears at the heel of the shoe. The heel has perforated leather. I think this is more for creativity in design than a practical use. This shoe has the current trendy style and maintains the classic shape of the Nike Air Classic BW.

    I like the color combination of red/black/white. Basically, black is the classic color to use for shoes because it is easy to mix and match. If the entire sneaker was black, it would look slightly boring so the Nike designers have introduced red to bring life into the black colorway.

    At the top of the shoe lacing, there is a special shoe lace lock in red color. I like this touch too. All these little details make the shoe look very good.

    Nike Air Max 90 iD VIP - Infrared Patent

    Bridge Footwear has re-emerged with a great inventory of very exclusive sneakers. The website had been out of the loop for a couple months, but now they are back with some hot selections.

    This shoe pictured here is the very exclusive Nike Air Max 90 Infrared Patent. So exclusive that you will not see it sold anywhere else except for Bridge Footwear.

    This sneaker features infrared patent all over with very few touches of black trim and a black sole. I really like the red hot look of these shoes. If you want to get a one-of-a-kind shoe and be a real standout, these kicks are a great choice. At $1500 for the pair, you better break out your piggy bank.

  • Go Pack Go with Custom AF1s

    I have mentioned several times over the last few months that I am a resident of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. You may not know that I am a huge Green Bay Packers fan going back to the terrible teams of the mid-1980s. I was just at the Packers-Raiders game, came home and found these awesome AF1s from the King of Sneakers that warmed my frozen heart.

    The green/gold colorway is not necessarily the most appealing to those outside of the Packers sphere of influence. I love the giant G placed on the toe box of each shoe, giving any self-respecting Packers fan a way to show off their fandom to all. The excess of yellow paint used on the rest of the shoe is punctuated briefly by lines of green paint.

    This pair of customs from King of Sneakers is outstanding for its craftsmanship and creativity. The only problem lies with the iconic colors of the Green Bay Packers. The green and gold does not translate to shoes that well though I am a traditionalist and certainly don’t want to see the Pack change their colors. King of Sneakers did a great job here celebrating one of the historic franchises in the NFL.
