Nike Lunar Safari – Fall/Holiday 2012

Nike just keeps hitting us in the head with these hybrid releases and we love it. The infamous Safari is getting it's foundation switched out from the old zoom air to the updated lunarlon technology...a SSD favorite. As always we will keep you up to speed when they drop.

Nike Air Max 97 CVS Soar Blue White

Combination of Fuse and a tight mesh wrap around the whole upper makes this AM97 classic turn some heads. With tons of new runners being introduced almost every other month now the 97 classic still remains a winner. These should be out sometime late summer along with the "solar red' colorway. No word yet on price point.

Mita Sneakers x Nike Air Max+ 95 BB ‘Neo Escape 2.0′

Here we go with a unique classic being only released over seas on the 28th of this month. This AM95 is equipped with a 360 air unit, the new "no sew on" effect on the upper and amazing combinations of blue and grey throughout the upper. Let us know what you think below and we will continue to keep you posted on it's official US release date.

Friday, April 20, 2012


Releasing tomorrow on 4/21 will be the Air Jordan Retro 12 in the Black/White colorway. This colorway is pretty significant in the AJ line up simply because it's the sneaker Michael was making moves in the 97 playoff games. Retail is going to be for $160 so get ready to stack that cheese if you want a pair or 2. Let us know what you think!

Son of Mars "Black/Red"

We seen the release of the white and purple Son of Mars sneaker along with the 'Bordeaux" colorway. This time we see it in the traditional blk/red color. Much better color in our opinion and might even be a cop in the SSD collection. Comment below and let us know what you think! No release date info as of yet but stay tuned.

2011 RUGBY WORLD CUP X NIKE AIR MAX 1 HYPERFUSE “NEW BLOOD”

You all ready for another sneaker that you can't get in the US? Ready, Set, Go....haha. These were introduced to the internetz a little over a month ago. Nike did a mock up of these in limited quantities to commemorate the Rugby World Cup 2011. Take a look at some of the shots below. It will come packages with a special set of "Beats By Dre Headsets" and the shoe itself is done up in black/stealth Hyperfuse material with red "New Blood" in place of the Nike Air on the tongue. The England Rugby ‘NEW BLOOD” Air Max 1 Hyperfuse will be available at Nike’s 1948 store in East London this weekend. Retail will be about $200 US. Let the resale begin!

Nike LeBron 9 Miami

We tried to reserve judgement until we have these sneakers in hand but the newly released colorway pictures make it difficult for us. HA. This "Miami" color is a little different from what we traditionally see from good ol' Lebron camp. No word yet on if/what the release date will be on these. Stay tuned as we keep you up to speed once we find out more. Does this colorway still change your opinion about the shoe?

Nike Zoom Kobe VI (6) Lower Merion

So this past weekend was slow for releases (Thank God) but the Kobe 6 "Lower Merion" did release online and in select stores this past weekend on the 10th. Wanted to thow this out there and ask if the Kobe 6 hype/interest has died down? We personally think that this sneaker is one of the better ones on the Kobe lineup far as comfort and style go. Just like every other signature shoe on the market right now we do think there are quite a few color selections...wait...thats an understatement...more like a saturation of colors is more like it. Did you cop the Kobe Lower Merion this past weekend? Let us know.

Kid Cudi Grabs 4 pair of Nike Air Mags

So we here at SSD are also notorious for grabbing up double, triples, hell maybe even quadruples of one pair of sneaker. Well, as we sit here and bump this "Sound Track 2 My Life" we stumbled across the Cudder himself winning 4 pairs of Nike Mags off eBay not too long ago. Keep in mind that each auction ended a little over $5,000 a pair. Hmmmm...do the math on that one! He announced his winnings on twitter with this statement. "Won 4 pairs of McFly's off Ebay, xmas done came early willllyyyyyy!!!"

Nothing yet on what Cudi plans to do with them but we are sure he will pop up somewhere with them on. Keep in mind this is a sneaker that NIke themselves explains can't but worn but so many times then it's done. Thoughts?

So a few days ago Jordan Brand confirmed that the classic Military Blue retro will hit shelves yet again in summer of 2012. For those of you that can remember it's re-release last year they actually sat on shelves for quite some time after it's release. Our question to you is do you think history will repeat itself in that respect next year? Comment below.

Air Jordan 2011 Hits Nike iD on Aug 16th

In a about a week or so Jordan heads can get pretty excited about the Jordan 2011 hitting NIke iD. Jordan brand is known for mainly bringing out team shoes and hybrid sneakers from their line to Nike iD mainly. This time around they actually hit us with a staple shoe that gets the custom treatment. No official word yet on how much they are exactly going to cost but will keep you updates once we hear more. So what do you think? With this date being so close to the Retro 5's dropping do you have another potential $200+ to drop on these in addition to? Let us know.

AIR JORDAN 11 “CONCORD”

Not that this isn't a big secret or anything but Jordan has officially given the streetz Dec 23rd, 2011 as the date for the re-release of these Jordan 11's. People that have been on this information have been saving that $$ since last year! Take a look at the newly revises box for them and the "concord" insert. The one thing we knew that was going to change was that price tag. Retail on these babies now will be $180. From the OG pair that's a $55 price jump....oh boy! Will you be grabbing a pair this Christmas??

They got pushed back for whatever reason instead of dropping this weekend. Retail will be $150 and we will have the video review/comparison posted on these shortly. Stay tuned.
