Nike HyperMax NFW McFly (Glow in the Dark)

So we have been reporting one of the most anticipated release of this McFly colorway of the HyperMax. Now Nike has release information that the blue accents on this shoe actually glow in the dark which make for an even cooler effect. I personally like the shoe just by the color way alone...but by Nike adding this into the mix makes things even hotter. I guess with this is as close to a Yeezy thay most of you all will get without having to pay a ridiculous amount. Remember that when the do decide to drop expect quantities to be limited and not every shop is going to carry them. Get your funds ready!!




Aficionado Yeezy Release Video

So I know that it's been approaching now almost a week since the Net/Net Yeezy released so I thought I might show you all how Aficionado got down with their Yeezy release. The thing I can respect is from the video they everybody looked like they had a good time! I respect how they ran things so check out the vid when you get a sec!

Nike Hypermax - August 2009 Release

Every time I see this shoe I just can't wait till we get closer to it's release. This pair actually has the Flywire technology embedded on the upper of the shoe! Lately all the ones that we have previewed have the "No Flywire" of NFW on the top portion of the shoe. It's mainly for performance first but with all the fly colors that are dropping don't be surprised to see heads with these on the street!

Nike Zoom Kobe Bryant IV (4) Philly

To pay tribute to Kobe's birthplace, Nike designed the "Philly" Nike Zoom Kobe IV. The Philly Nike ZKIV features a patriotic upper of Red, White, and Blue with reflective stars around the ankle collar. The footbed features Kobe's a "8-23-78" graphic of Kobe's birthday and the star pattern as well.

Cool looking color and surprised none of you Kobe fans out there did this color from the Nike iD that was available to you a while back. I expect to see at least 2 more colors in this shoe before the playoff are over! No word yet on when they will release!

Meet Sonny “Air Max 95 King” Guerra

Here is a quick follow up video to those Air Max 95 tattoo pictures we showed you the other day. 808 Sonny show some of his collection.

Never too late! Tan Yeezy line review @ Burn Rubber

Super lazy on not getting this footage of a line of people here in Mi for the Air Yeezy release last week. Some of those heads out there had been camped out as early as that Mon before the Sat release! Dedication...

Nike Air Yeezy Net/Net on NikeStore.com

So if you missed it then you slept hardcore! Last night NDC (Nike.com) release about 50+ pair of the Yeezy's! The net/net color that we previewed last week and rumor has it even the blk/pink pair as well. Certain orders got canceled for those people that tried to order multiple pair. Shot out to those lucky few that were able to grab a pair! Some say that Nike decided to do something unannounced due to yesterday being Mr. West B-Day!

Nike Air Hoop Structure | More Spring 2010 Colorways

The Nike Air Hoop Structure is the Nike Air Structure Triax transformed into a performance Basketball sneaker. You should start to see 2 of the several colors start to hit select shops this summer. When I first heard of the concept I was pretty much against it...but after seeing more pictures in different colors it's starting to grow on me.


Nike Hypermax NFW Hits Overseas | McFly Tennis Ball Blue and Red Colorways

We featured these bad boys early last month so if you missed it then you should start becoming a follower of the site now! (plug) Four colorways are available now including the McFly, the Tennis Ball, a Red Colorway, and a Blue colorway. They have only popped up in stores overseas and no official word on when they will hit the U.S. They are still nice to look at for now. Can't wait!





Nike Air 3 (Kevin Garnett KG 3 Retro) Spring 2010 Colorways

Dubbed the Nike Air 3 this time around because Kevin Garnett is with adidas, these will drop in several colors once they hit the streets. I hope Nike stays true to it's OG comfort throughout the mesh upper and the back visible air unit. Curious to see what retail price on these are going to be.


Nike Flightposite II (2) Kevin Garnett to Return | Spring 2010

What's up ya'll. So it was only a matter of time before I knew Nike had this one coming. I mean with all the flight/foam/penny/1/2cent etc shoes that have dropped over the last year now these come as no surprise. I personally passed on these way back in the day! The upper suede like toe box material use to get dirty as hell really quick. Besides that they were not the best looking shoe it was very heavy.

Compared to the first flightposite there is no comparison in my eyes. This once made for a pretty cool indoor hooping shoe back in the day and came out in about 7-10 different colors. Those of you who like them will have to wait a cool year before the actual release. Don't be surprised if you see the House of Hoops show up with these around Dec time frame. You heard it hear first!

*Late Pass....Cincinnati "Got Heat" Sneaker Showcase

So the should have gone up like 3 days ago when I was told about it. Big Shout out to my dude that owns Corporate...Matt! So while I will be helping Detroit get there game on to host a show very similar to this in the near future *hint, hint* we can only sit back and give major props to some of these cats truly bringing heat to the game! Young kids sit back and take notice, old heads get ready to roll down memory lane. Get your popcorn together and make sure not to disturb the show with bathroom breaks! LOL. Thanks again to Matt for taking time to record the footage and help putting that show together for the streets!















Sooooo...Is this taking it too far????

We all by now have seen some sneaker heads with tattoo of a Jumpman, a Nike swoosh etc. Sonny “Air Max 95 King” Guerra is from Hawaii and loves his Air Max 95's...so much that he got his entire foot tattoo to resemble one! Talk about a love for your kicks! Sonny owns just over 150 pair of Air Max 95's and won the Sole Collector competition in Seattle a while back. I wonder if he entered in his feet as another pair for the competition? LOL...check it out. Leave comments on this one!

Nike MVPs - Kobe & LeBron (Lil Dez Finals)

Waiting for D-Howard kool-aid smile to come jumping right on in...Still pretty funny!

Nike Air Maxim 1 in Original Air Max 1 Colors

I am patiently waiting till next month for these to drop. Not only does Nike take the Air Max 1 platform and utilize the Nike Free Sole, Flywire, and makes the upper completely translucent. Even though I know most heads prefer the mesh on the toe box I actually prefer the leather or in this case a whole other material that won't get dirty as quick!





Nike Air Max 1 Safari Pack - Fall 2009 - New Photos

We actually showed you a preview of a couple different colors earlier this year for Nike fall 2009 preview. Rumor has it that the purple, and the wht/royal colors may drop well before summer is up! Keep it locked but for now we can only wait around.




Nike Zoom Kobe Bryant IV NBA Finals Edition | Detail Pics

I know that those Orlando catz out there can't stand this post! LOL. GO LAKERS! Anyway we though we would preview the supposed last color that Kobe will rock for the finals....

The Nike Zoom Kobe IV Finals edition features inspiration from the 2008-09 season including:

GOLD ACCENTS representing the quest for the NBA Championship trophy.

CONCORD is used to provide energy to a colorway that traditionally features varsity purple.

GRAPHICS on the collar and vamp feature milestones and amazing stats that helped Kobe reach the Finals.


No exact word on if these will release to the public. If I had to guess it will more than likely be a House of Hoop release. Stay tuned.
