Reminder (Air Jordan 2009 S23 Drop Tomorrow)

So we are on the eve of the the limited edition color in the Jordan 2009 to drop. Even with all the crazy mixed reviews about them this color is clean. Not many black on black shoes that are fly. I am officially putting my stamp on this one though. Hope you saved you pennies....this particular pair is going to hit you for $230!

Jordan Retro 1 Hi Pewter Follow up pics....

I have had a couple emails in respects to this particular color on the Jordan 1 that will now release in Feb for sure. Mid Dec of last year I reported a 4 different colors of the retro 1. Now here are some detail pics that may have Jordan heads waiting for this one to drop and put a hold on the Black and now Max Orange 1 that will release within the same month. Retail is still $110. Check it....

Nike Air Trainer III's

Early this week I posted the blk/orange color in the trainer 3 and now we see 2 more additional colors to soon hit shops. Look for these 2 out of the several that we all may see before the end of the year is up. I am really diggin the blue boys. NICE!

Nike Air Digs WMNS Retro

So for $78 bucks ladies can cash in on a pretty cool looking retro. Looks very similar to a Nike Trainer, it was real popular back in the 90's and made for volleyball players. Hence the name "Dig." This time Nike is only bringing back the shoes strictly for the ladies but don't be surprised if you see some fellas trying to rock em as well. Both colors will be available next month. Check back for more pictures......

Nike Air Pegasus

So this is a combo of Nike ACG and the wildwood hybrid. Nice mix with premium leathers and tough nylon makes for a very durable shoe. I am on this ACG kick with the weather being so jacked here in Mi this year. Keep the other kicks on ice till spring/summer but still remain fresh/dry and warm this winter with these. Purchase these now @ Nike.com and other retailers.......

Give it a caption!

Came across this photo and wanted to put it out there to those that are creative enough to make a caption for this. LOL. Let's hear em. 0h yeah, some of the shoes are dope though.

Air Force 1 Low Green/Elephant Print

Right in time for St. Patty day for those headz here in the states. The low top is already released at stores overseas but will come out here (U.S. on March 7) Peep the elephant print on these.

Nike Womens Air Max 90 - Abyss/Volt

Said it before and I will say it again.....NIKE IS BRINGING OUT ALL THE FLY RETRO COLORS FOR 09!! Ladies you get graced with this Abyss/Volt colorway which is shockingly dope! The neon on this is just right and you already know dudes are going to try to cop a pair. Available now at select retailers.

Jordan Retro 1 Midnight Release@ Burn Rubber Detroit

So one of the flyest stores in the world (Yes, the world craig) is doing a midnight release on the "Tribe Called Quest" Retro 1 High this Friday (technically Sat Morning) I know there are some mixed thoughts about the shoe but believe me...the pictures that have been floating around do it no justice. The design pattern and quality materials were put together surprisingly well. So if you are in Detroit this weekend make sure to swing by and grab a pair. These will go fast! Limited quantities. Don't forget to grab that Fresh tee that they have to go with them!

P.S. Tell them that "Blinded by the Jumpman" sent you to receive that 1% discount! LOL.

Nike Playmakers Offical Vid pt3

What up to my man Money Maze over there at KATC.com always doing big things. This event went down last month featuring Nike Air Force 1's in New York. If I was not working I would have really like to have gotten a chance to roll down there. I really don't even like air ones like that any more but after seeing what Mayor and Clark Kent were showing off could change my mind.....LOL. Check it!

Nike Air Tailwind 92 Retro

Non OG color on these but Nike does not let us down with what color they come up with. The speckled midsole stands out the most with nice combination of wht, blk, and hit of blue mesh on top of it. Tailwind 2 is most def a nice running shoe or even simply light on the feet for everyday wear. This color should be available at most retailers now!

Eggplant Nike Foamposite Pro

No matter if you are a new/old sneakerhead then you should know about the "Eggplant" that are coming within the next week. Most boutiques and low key spot have already popped up with them in their inventory if not already sold out. I am really digging the clear sole and purple color on them. Will def have to add this to the collection with the blk, wht/blk, blue, and the silver one that I already have....come on Feb!

Nike Penny 2 Black/Red

I saw these a couple months back and actually like the color that they twisted on this pair. They are dubbed the "Miami Heat" Penny's. I am always a sucker for a cool looking black/red color shoe. Be looking for these to pop up at a local retailer near you!

Quick Strike Huarache Burst releases

So as we continue to move further into 09 we see that Nike is keeping the whole retro hybrid theme rolling. The Huarache/Air Max Burst is not new to the hybrid game...in fact Nike is re releasing this shoe with a few minor adjustments.

The first color is the blk/red which reminds heads of the Bred Jordan XI. Black mesh upper with patent, white midsole, and red translucent sole. Going to be a very light shoe overall once release with a nice snug fit. The top portion where the laces are almost remind me of the Air Kukini that released over 10 years ago. Check out the cool grey color as well. Of course they have release to our brothers and sisters in the east and will make their way to the states soon. This will be a nice summer shoe to kick around in.

SMU Air Jordan 2009 House of Hoops Release???

So I got this pictures from the fellas over at SneakrAddicts. The minute that I saw this I thought about the wack DADA code M shoe that dropped back in the day. LOL. So is the Jordan 2009 coming with a mp3 speaker set up in it? HAHAHAHA. Easy pass on these...



Here go these wack Dada code M I was talking about....

Martin Louie The King.....

Nike Womes Air Flightposite 1

With Nike trying to keep the playing field even they finally felt it was time to put a fligtposite out there for the ladies. While there is not too much going on with this one with the exception of the pink hit on the swoosh and the shank plate. I am curious to see if the ladies would want to rock this out and about or actually play ball in em. They are amazing shoes to hoop in, I know from experience minus the pink. LOL. Either way I think it's cool to give the ladies a shot at these.

Air Jordan 7 Low

Az and I were talking about this today. From the sample pictures below from Jordan Brand the shoes might have some potential. While I love the Jordan 7 this might be kinda dope if I see it in another color. Let's face it...this is not the citrus 11 patent low top by far."The Greatest low top in the world" according to Az.. Lol. Let me know what you think of these....

Kanye West LV video hit!

Sorry if I keep hittin you with Kanye news but this hair style is still cracking me up man. LV shoes are def made known in this brief interview that they did with Kanye. If you have been following the blog I posted pictures before with some pictures from this event. Check the vid.

PF Flyers Velcro Strap Sneaker

Come on now... How many more Chucks/Puma/Supra/Reebok/Yeezy/T-3/Creative Rec/ whatever whatever is going to come out??? This is the velcro strap sneaker from PF Flyers. Seems as if everybody is trying to hop on that ban wagon and make this $ for 09. Won't be in the jumpman collection that is for sure! Pure wackness! Let's get more creative here and step outside of what everybody else is doing.

Kanye Red LV Sneakers @ Pairs Fashion Show.

These are some pictures of Kanye rocking his soon to be on the market LV sneakers. This was shot in Pairs where a fashion show was going down and The Moment leaked a couple of the pictures last night. Still not understanding what's going down with Kanye hair though. LOL. Must be nice to have money is all that I am saying.

Kanye West Louis for Vuitton Sneaker - Nude Colorway

Dubbed as the "Nude" colorway for the Kanye new LV sneaker dropping very soon. Like the color still hate the $500 tag that it's going to have. Hypebeast get ready.

Kobe "If you really want it"

Reminds me of the old school Jordan commercials. Gotta Love Nike! Check it out.

Updates on Jordan Retro 1 Infrared....

So as we countdown a week from today when the retro 1 which was suppose to be Infrared but now being changed at the last minutes of production to "Max Orange" instead. I know, I know....Teek this is the brand that you support so much why the change. Jordan Brand for you! Let me know!

Nike Terminator Hi White/Italy Blue

While I have always loved the old school feel/look of the Air Terminator this color might not have been the best choice. Don't get me wrong, the color combo is clean but I don't see too many dudes rocking the baby blues like that any more. LOL. Unless they are some patent 11's but that is a whole other story! (Blinded)

Update for Kanye West x Louis Vuitton Shoe

Much different from the earlier pictures that I posted with Kanye holding his all white version of the shoe. Still set to release sometime this June they show off 1 of 5 different styles that will drop from the Louis Vuitton Don. While I am still a fan of the music, he is not showing me anything to special with these.



PARIS — Marc Jacobs and the Louis Vuitton men’s studio director Paul Helbers have some design competition this season. Kanye West, who was sitting front row at the Vuitton show, has designed a line of five LV sneakers. Only one design, above, was featured in the show — a monochromatic midtop with no frills, save for a quilted flap in the back, all the easier to tuck pants into. “The inspiration came from a jacket with a huge collar in the movie ‘Dune,’ ” West says. “Most sneakers focus on the tongue, so I wanted to do something different.” West knows whereof he speaks: he says he has no idea how many shoes he owns, but he does know that he routinely needs to send shipments off to storage. The LV-meets-Kanye kicks will be available at Louis Vuitton stores in June.
