Nike Air Max 1 Black Pack

I just have one question....can you really go wrong with a all black AM1? We are going to go with NO! We showed you quite a few different color variations that Nike has released over the last month or so in the Air Max 1 but keeping things simple sometimes look so clean. These should be at select Nike accounts now so go and check in.

Nike LeBron 8 V2 – ‘Christmas’

The Lebron 8 is making moves in a quick pace just as we expected. Below is the "Christmas" edition that Lebron will be rocking against the LA Lakers on Christmas day. We believe that these look 10 times better than last years version in the 7. Notice the red see through mesh hits were the suede is normally placed at on other versions. DOPE! Stay with us as we get closer to the release for accurate timeframe these will release.





Nike Foamposite One Pewter New Detailed Pics

We showed you some up close shots on these a few weeks back. More pictures will pop up as we continue to be months out from it's actual release. These pewter foams will not release until sometime next spring of 2011. Retail will more than likely continue to be $200 when they drop. Our question to you is do you think these will be as popular as the "copper" foams, or will the sit for a bit like the pearls did this year? Leave comments below.

UA Mirco G Black Ice “Halloween” Edition

Happy Halloween to all the celebrate it! Looks like Under Armor and Brandon Jennings were in the spirit with these 1 of 1 Black Ice "Halloween Edition" Micro G. Does not look like this edition will hit stores anytime soon in this mock up, apparently they were only made for last nights Bucks season opener.



Supra Stacks – Holiday 2010 Colorways

These Supra Stacks are a swing in another direction for the brand. More of a clean, simplistic look rather than the Super Hi tops we normally see from them. The Supra Stacks are now available at select Supra accounts so check in if you like em.



ESPN x Marvel Comics – NBA Team Covers

One of the biggest storytellers of all time has partnered up with ESPN and the NBA to create amazing comic-book covers of NBA teams, playing off of historic Marvel characters; Kobe Bryant as Ironman, Yao Ming as Weapon X, the Celtics as the Fantastic Four (well, five), and LeBron James leaving behind his jersey are just some of the classic Marvel tales that we all grew to love. Check out just a few covers we snagged that were floating around. Some of them are pretty funny yet so true! (Like the Detroit one) #Nolove. HAHA. Enjoy.









Nike Air Max 1 “Dark Army”

Even though we are approaching colder weather conditions here in Detroit we still have a few weeks left to get it in with our AM1's. This colorway is just sick!! Dark Army green suede/mesh upper sitting on a "gum sole," you just can't lose. These have already released at select Nike retailers for $92. Grab a pair if you can find some in your area.




Nike LeBron 8 – ‘Un-China’

If you have not seen the Lebron "China" Edition 8's we previewed last month then scroll on the "Lebron" section to check em out. New pictures have surfaced of the "Un-China" (unofficial name at the moment) with more red color than white around the shoe. Looks like there is white tumbled leather, with patent leather on top near the eyelets. No word yet on it's release date but you know where to go and grab em early if you are looking to pay above retail.
