Nike Womens Lunartrainer +

Ladies if you don't know...now you know!! 4 real. Looking for a fly shoe and it's crazy comfortable then this is definitely it. So ladies, if your shoe size is a 9 or bigger than you might not like these. Not to knock my big foot ladies but I just want to warn you because of the way that the sole is constructed. It starts out being narrow at the toe then bows out pretty wide due to it being created for performance first and fashion second.

If you can get past that then you will not be disappointed in it's comfort that's for sure. This shoe integrates Nike Lunar foam or Lunarlite technology which gives off that nice memory foam feel cushioning. Nike is going to bring out plenty colors for you to chose from so just remember that we told you not to sleep! LOL. 4 real though....





Kanye West Appreciation video

So you can almost expect that throughout the week I am going to be reporting on the continued aftermath for the Yeezy. This time Mr.West is shooting a quick vid showing his appreciation for everybody that copped. Seems that he is having a good time chillin on a boat in the sun....heck of a lot better than this snow we have been having over the last couple days. Check it...


APPRECIATION SHOUT OUT FROM HAWAII from kwest on Vimeo.

Dallas Penn Strkines again...WHERE ARE YOU YEEZY pt1 & pt2

WHERE ARE YOU YEZZY??? LOL Dallas Penn is a clown. Thought I would follow this one up with the release to the Yeezy. Take about 20 min and sit back and watch these 2 vidz. They are funny as hell.



Air Yeezy (Beyond the Hype) Video

This was kinda fly. Unlike others I know SoleSurvivor held off and trying to grab a pair in this color but does not mean we aren't looking to grab one of the other 2 to be released. Again, does not matter if they are going to be Hyperstrike, Friends/Family etc....if we like....then we will cop!! LOL. Check out the video and some of the response from the people that grabbed a pair!

Reebok Pump Omni Lite Royal Navy White Orange

If you are a fan of the old school Reebok then you will like the Omni Lite freaked out in what I call the Knicks colorway. These are going to hit Reebok accounts this week but scheduled to release in Japan on the 11th then here in the US thereafter. Keep it locked.

Nike 2009 Fall/Winter Sample Pics

Couple things to remember when viewing....These are just samples so at any given moment before their release Nike can change them at the last minute so don't get too attached. Second, those are not Jordan Retro 1's in the Og colors towards the bottom. LOL. That was just for my people wondering. These are just a taste of what is to still come from Nike. Which ones do you like?????















Nike Air Woven (White/ Light Melon

First we show you "Mint" now there is "Melon." If you have not noticed by now Nike does not fall from staying within the same theme when certain shoes release. Another banger for the ladies with a white/Orange(Melon) color for summer. Ladies be extra careful with these because once you get that white mesh dirty watch out!!! So in other words...keep em clean! LOL. Enjoy





Nike Air Woven Black/Mint

So ladies comment and let me know what you think about Nike Ladies woven line up. This pair was suppose to drop early May but have hit certain accounts already. Black and mint woven upper, white midsole, and frosted mint out sole. So SWEET....GET IT? OK, that was wack but the shoe is cold. Let me know.


Nike Dunk High (White, Dark Obsidian Woven)

Yesterday we showed you the white/green low top version of the dunk woven. If you are not a green/white kind of person then you might like these. Clean cut dunk and another nice color selection to off set the woven mid panel. This color will be out shortly after the green joints drop. Select Nike accounts only will receive the hook up on these.



Fame City x Mita Sneakers x New Balance 575 Trail Runners

New Balance gettin it in with our friends overseas again... If you are expecting these to hit the states then you are mistaken. LOL. Another Japan exclusive and New Balance 575 canvas to paint them on. Super FLY!!!


Atmos x New Balance CM996 Rainbow

Atmos is a Japanese sneaker boutique that hooked up with New Balance and came up with this colorful creation. I am starting to respect the New Balance brand more and more. Like Nike they focus on performance first but never don't forget the streets either when trying to get the streets attention. These are only available overseas and may never hit the U.S. in this color.



Air Jordan 1 (GS) Icy Pack

These are 1 of 3 I believe to release from Jordan Brand for kids. I know that my daughter will be rocking a pair as soon as I can get a hold of some. They are suppose to be out within the next couple weeks and other colors will pop up soon. All patent leather upper with a pink translucent sole makes for a colorful shoe. These should retail for about $49.99 on up once they hit. Gotta keep the youth FRESH!!

Nike 1/2 Half Cent Silver

So the first color way was sold out just as quickly as this Yeezy went. Amongst the Blk/Green pair and Blk/Blk pair that Nike is going to release later this year you will have a chance to get these. This color was inspired by the Tim Duncan Total Foamposite that they released back in the day. I really like these and once we get other shots of them I will put them up for you. For now check em out.

Nike Womens Air Max Light (Medium Grey Magnet, Light Melon)

Nike is keeping the ladies fresh again for this summer with a classic. Suede and mesh uppers and the color hits being A-1, you all can expect to drop a cool $125 once the release here in the states. Check em out!

Nike Hyperize "Sydney Deane" Edition

So let me break down with what we have here. Nike is getting the concept from this shoe from the movie "White Men Can't Jump!" Wesley Snips character in the movie played as Sydney Dean..whose colors on the hat, shorts, and color tank tops he wore resemble the colors used on the shoe. I for one think this is dope! It was smart to tie in this shoe because it is a spin off of their old (Hyper Dunk) add that got pulled late last year due to some people taking personal offense and legal issues about the campaign. (side bar) Check my youtube post and get educated further on that! Start viewing at 1:36 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgdZgUQcyKk

People are not understanding why Nike chose to do this vs bring back some Force/Flight shoe from back then but that's not what they had in mind. The HyperDunk/Fly Wire technology is Nike main focus right now and has proven successful amongst other innovation ideas in place. These should be available sometime this summer and no set price as of yet. Check out the insoles of the shoes....It quotes and line from the movie that Wesley would say to Woody about Jimmy Hendrix and his music.."You can listen to Jimmi but you can't hear em."




Nike Dunk Green/White Woven

So I know Ro is not a big fan of woven material period. I have to say that you are seeing the whole woven, presto, light aqua sock phase coming back in the picture. Below are a pair of Dunks that will hit select Nike retailers soon. Very clean choice to match up the green/white together....throw together the woven mid panel and it's MONEY!! GET it???? LOL. Enjoy.
