    Adidas Gil II Zero TS Lightswitch Cust0mize

    Though Gilbert Arenas is sidelined with a knee injury right now, his shoes keep rolling out from Adidas.

    The Adidas Gil II Zero TS Lightswitch Cust0mize launched on Friday. This is one of the 20 different styles from Gil II Zero collection that are being released this season. The Cust0mize features all-white patent leather and comes with a dry erase marker so that you can write words or pictures on the clean white uppers. The heel features Gil’s self-portrait that he draw on the “Impossible is Nothing” TV commerical. These shoes are available at adidas.com for $90. Only 3,000 pairs are being released globally.

    In addition to these shoes, check out the two home/away versions of the TS Lightswitch that also dropped on Black Friday.

    The TS Lightswitch Away shoe comes in a black/sandstorm/white colorway and features graphics from his “Impossible is Nothing” TV spot. It reads “Agent Zero” on the side stripes. The Home shoe features a white/blue/bronze color combination – the Wizards home colors.

  • Custom Adidas Superstar Twos in Plaid

    The Adidas Superstar 2 is a classic shoe that has been worn by rappers, celebrities and average skaters throughout the world. The simplicity of the Superstar 2 design is combined with a relatively low sticker price, at least compared to other skate shoes, for the perfect shoe on city streets. The good people at Sole Brother in Canada have used the Superstar 2 as a canvas for a new street style.

    The bright green tri-stripes and the green lettering on the tongue stand out from the black leather that comes standard with the Superstar 2. A notable adjustment made by Sole Brother is the plaid leather design used to add some class to this retro classic. You can pair these customs with plaid pants, a suit or anything else in your closet that is designed to set you apart.

  • Nike Blazer Spring 2008 Preview

    Nike Blazer Spring 2008 Preview

    Here’s a sneak preview of the Nike Spring 2008 collection. This packages includes Low, High and Super High varieties.

    My favorite is the black High pictured above, which features a combination of black and grey suede for a very stylish look. The white Swoosh, laces and sole contrast the black suede nicely. The Nike label on the tongue and heel are blue with yellow lettering. These shoes are sure to please those looking for something sleek yet still relatively simple.

    I am not fond of the Low at all. This dark blue leather shoe features a rainbow heel and it just doesn’t work well at all. Perhaps this shoe would have been better in suede or a lighter shade of blue.

    The other two pairs of shoes pictured here are a little funky. The black leather shoe has a textured black Swoosh and colorful paint splatters throughout. The final shoe features a patchwork pattern of black, brown and blue leather in and abstract style. I think the brown laces on the black shoes are an interesting touch. But overall, I don’t really love either of these shoes.

    Look for more details to come out in upcoming weeks. These Blazers are expected to be released in March 2008.Thanks to Sneaker News for the photos.

    Converse Holiday '07 Jack Purcell

    The Converse Jack Purcell design has enjoyed a much welcomed return. It first started its comeback campaign about a few months ago.Converse enlisted the help of collaborators to come out with new designs. Its traditional models were also revamped and released.Converse will launch more models soon. These shoes are available at Conope.

    The first picture shows a snow white colorway that is trimmed with a border of gold thread crosses on black. The tongue bears the logo “Jack Purcell” in gold color. Gold is the festive season’s decorative color. It is a beautiful party shoe that will carry the person through any attire.

    This collection has six shoes done in different colorways.Although the basic design has been adhered to, each shoe has individual accents that make it unique.The gold colorway is the most fashionable for this coming Christmas season. The burgundy red colorway is a good fit for Santa Claus when he is in costume. These comfortable sneakers can be worn at work or at play.

    Some of these Jack Purcell sneakers come with different colored shoe laces. The most conservative pair is the olive green one. The shoe laces and colorway match. I like this pair the best.
