    This shoe is released on August 9. Firmament will sell them.

    Nike has collaborated with Japan’s fleece specialist, Loopwheeler, to design this Blazer High. The entire shoe upper is in Loopwheeler fleece. The purple Nike Swoosh looks attractive as an accent. The shoe lace holes are set into reinforced black leather. The shoe lace is black and the long row of lacing makes the shoe look good. The tongue is in the same grey color as the rest of the shoe upper. There is a blacked colored Nike tag with a blue colored “Nike” at the tip.

    There is another black leather accent and that is at the midsole of the shoe. A short, narrow strip of leather adds one detail to the sneaker. The thick midsole is continued down to the outsole. Both the midsole and outsole are white colored. The outsole has a dense View More Photos/Info

    Seen being worn by Team Jordan Brand member Carmelo Anthony is this pair of Air Force Jordan 20 White/Navy colorway. The shoes are low-cut and feature the design of the Jordan 20 on the sides. The simple colors blend well together, creating a shoe that is very sleek yet stylish. For those who hated the ankle strap of the Air Jordan 20s, these pairs will be a relief. These are definitely one of the best among the Air Force Jordan fusions that we know can be pretty out there. No information about the release are available as of now so stay tuned.

    By on August 10th, 2008 | 2 Comments2 Comments Comments

    Krazy Bear Kicks created a pair of Nike Vandals for an upcoming display at San Diego’s Milo Shoes and Gallery. This gallery promotes sneaker collections from local, regional and national designers to tourists and shoe aficionados. Readers need to know this background to understand the design elements used by Krazy Bear to create these Nike Vandals.

    It was clear that the designer was using these customs as a medium to show off his painting, drawing and composition skills. The gray elephant skin print used on the toe box and heel show Krazy Bear’s preference for simple touches. Flashes of color are displayed with the red flames and electric blue panel beneath the Nike swoosh. This submission by Krazy Bear Kicks goes a long way toward showing the designer’s skills and philosophy on shoe design.

    New Balance M1300UK Limited Edition - #1

    This limited edition pack of the New Balance M1300UK features three colorways that are nice choices for fall. These shoes combine mesh, suede and a crackle midsole for a unique look.

    The three versions include: bordeaux/green, blue/yellow and military green/orange. It’s interesting that they use a neon color trim paired with the more subtle muted base colors.

    These shoes will be relased at Mita and other online shops on August 22nd. My favorite pair is the blue because it’s a little more lively than the other two selections. Via High Snobiety.

  • Nike at Rock, Paper, Scissors: August Heat Wave

    Nike Air Max 90 Red Ostrich
    Rock, Paper, Scissors just got in those sick Nike Air Max 90 Black/Red Ostrich Leather sneakers we showed you before. We weren’t sure where to grab the Air Max 90’s because it was speculated that it was an Asia-only release, but thank the Nike Gods (or the Goddess Nike?) that they’re here stateside. They also got in the Nike Blazer High USA Olympics from the Nike Olympics Pack. Both are pure heat from Nike and it’s refreshing to see that Nike’s still coming with great colorways for classic sneakers, among many not-so-great colorways that they put out. $92.
