    The Nike Air Trainer 2 SB August 2008 is scheduled for release in the month of August. These shoes are sold at LTD for 13,800 Yen each pair.

    The toe box is in blue, perforated leather. The densely perforated leather would give some ventilation to the wearer. The toe box is surrounded by a mudguard. The toe box ends with a strap across. This shoe strap is fastened by velco and is black with Nike printed in blue.

    Right below this strap is the black colored reinforcement for the midsole. The tongue is black colored and so is the shoe lace. The shoe lace holes are done on black colored panels. These panels reinforce the frame of the shoe around the midsection. The center of the midsection has blue plastic netting over its black section. Over the blue nets, the blue Nike swoosh is attached to View More Photos/Info

  • Sonic vs. Knuckles Air Force Ones
    By on August 16th, 2008 | 2 Comments2 Comments Comments

    D@ Prince Customs has created a pair of Nike Air Force Ones to honor the main characters of the Sonic the Hedgehog video game series. The designer placed the blue spiky-haired Spike on the left shoe and his red haired rival Knuckles on the right shoe. These characters first faced off in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 as competitors with a healthy respect for one another.

    There are a few small touches used by D@ Prince Customs that complete the sneaker’s video game theme. The checkerboard pattern that is found in every Sonic game, comic book and cartoon runs from the heel to the collar strap. The designer added the name “Jamal” in Sega lettering as a subtle way to brand his shoes.

    I found these photos from the first post by D@ Prince Customs on Nike Talk linked here. Readers who are interested in procuring a pair of custom sneakers View More Photos/Info

    Adidas X Kendo ZX 800 - AZX Project - #1

    As the AZX Project continues, taking the “K” spot is this release for the ladies. We’ve seen a lot of hot women’s shoes in 2008 so far and these are another good choice.

    Collaborating with Kendo, a women’s sneaker shop in L.A., Adidas created this grey suede version of the ZX 800. These shoes combine grey suede with a bright purple heel and midsole for a nice look. Silver mesh is also used on the toe box, tongue and side panels. Additionally, gold metallic stripes and aqua blue accents liven up this shoe. The combination of colors and textures create sweet results. Via Sneaker Freaker.

    The Hundreds x Gravis Lowdown Blackbox Sneaker - #1

    The Hundreds and Gravis teamed up on this collaboration. The result is a Lowdown Blackbox sneaker that looks ultra clean. If you want to pick up a pair for yourself, head over to Flauge right now.

    When you first glance at these kicks, it might appear as if it is another white-on-white release. However, a closer look and you’ll see some lime green used around the bottom of the shoe and around the ankles. A black logo tag for The Hundreds is located on the lower heel. Overall, the clean look of these shoes is impressive and the unique design will make it a sought after pair of sneakers. Via High Snobiety.

  • Nike Air Revaderchi Fall 2008 – grey & white colorways.
    By on August 15th, 2008 | No Comments Comments

    Images are found: here.

    The Nike Air Revaderchi Fall 2008 has two colorways. These shoes will be released in the Fall.

    The grey colorway has purple accents. The main body is made of fabric while the panels are from leather. The toe box is small as it is hemmed in by a toe cap and a mudguard. This guard extends right back to the base of the heel. It is then overlapped by a panel that forms a cap over the base of the heel. This panel has some fancy design details like a hole where a purple strap can be threaded through and pulled to the other side of the shoe. This purple strap looks good against the grey background of the shoe. There is a black collar around the ankle. This collar is in turn trimmed by a lining of purple colored border. The midsole has thick, dense black and grey colored dots. The outsole is black, with rough, gripping treads.

  • KJax Nike Dunks
    By on August 15th, 2008 | 29 Comments29 Comments Comments

    KJax’s sophomore effort at custom sneaker designing was posted recently on the Nike Talk thread linked here. These custom Nike Dunks received a good reception from the sneaker fans and posters at Nike Talk. I agree with their approval of KJax’s custom Dunks and hope he continues making great designs in the future.

    The theme of KJax’s latest custom is the process of creating a pair of hot sneakers. KJax added a cartoon of a designer with a can of spray paint on both heels. The cartoon designer has wreaked havoc on the Dunks with blue paint sprayed around the swoosh and lighter colors painted on the heel.

    KJax added his name in yellow paint just above the outsoles on both shoes to make his name known to sneaker fans. The designer has made his presence known so the yellow “KJax” painted on both shoes is merely a formality.
