Air Jordan XI (GS) – Ice Blue

Air Jordan XI GS 8211 Ice Blue
The recent release of the Air Jordan XI Space Jams was definitely one of the biggest of 2009 and it seems that 2010 is just going to be another great year for Air Jordan XI releases. This pair of Jordan 11’s feature an all white colorway with a very nice ice blue sole.
So far the information that we have is said that these will only be releasing in GS sizes but there is still plenty of time for that to change as a release date hasn’t even been scheduled yet. You can check out some detailed shots below and let us know what you think of these 11’s.

Hitting us with a very nice pair of Air Force 1’s is Marcus Troy. He recently stopped through Nike’s 21 Mercer Space in NY to create his own pair of Nike Air Force 1 Bespokes and I gotta say these would definitely be a nice pair of sneakers to make a retail release but Marcus gets the only pair.
On this pair of Air Forces he combined a couple of materials including kevlar, waterproof denim, suede, leather as well as loopwheeler cotton for the lining. As for the colorway they feature a black, grey and torquoise with “Marcus” and “Troy” on the dubrae’s of the sneaker.

Nike Air Max LeBron VII Cool Gray

Nike Air Max LeBron VII Cool Gray
With 2009 now over, we can finally start looking at what 2010 will bring us, and what better way to do so than with a new edition of the Nike Air Max LeBron VII. The LeBron’s VII, just like last year, will be battling against the Nike Zoom Kobe V throughout the year to see which gets the top Nike spot. Of course we been seeing some colorways for this year already, and here we have the newest in the Nike Air Max LeBrion VII Cool Gray.
This edition of the kicks comes in an all fine leather upper, with the most simpler color palette used in any of the shoes released so far, but that’s definitely not a problem. Cool gray is used in the entire upper, with minimal white accents in the Nike Swoosh out line, the flywire side panels, laces, and mid sole, as well as in the LB23 ankle windows. The air bubble also comes in a cool gray, finishing off the shoes with a white and gray sole. These will release later in the year, but stay tuned for a release date.

Nike Air Force 1 Hi Supreme LE

Nike Air Force 1 Hi Supreme LE
A new year is upon us and what’s a better way to start off a year then releasing a new pair of the Nike Air Force 1 Hi Supreme LE, which is exclusively releasing for the women. We’ve said this before and we’ll say it again, the Nike Air Force 1 is one of the most prestigious Nike sneakers to release till this day and we find it very ironic that Nike has decided to give us a look at these kicks rather then any other Nike sneaker.
The sneaker is some what simple when it comes to the colorway, but when it comes to attention to detail they’ve gone beyond enough. The Air Force 1’s include a black upper, which is accented with black shiny accents throughout the entire sneaker. Small parts of the sneaker is filled in with metallic gold such as the lace lock, tongue tag, and Nike logo which is placed on the back of the sneaker. Finally, to top off the sneaker, Nike has decided to add a canvas strap located on the ankle. More detailed pictures are available after the jump.

The Nike Hyperdunk was a sneaker that has made many sneaker heads go crazy, at one point we would see one Hyperdunk release every week due to it’s popularity. Although we’ve been seeing less and less Hyperdunks, Nike has brought back a pair this time it’s supporting the Low top model, which probably isn’t a fan favorite but still very attractive. If your on the border of purchasing a pair of Hyperdunks or your still contemplating on buying these I’m sure the images after the jump would change your mind.
As stated previously, the Nike Hyperdunk is featured in a Low top model and is a two-toned sneaker. The upper features grey which is made up with nubuck material. The rest of the sneaker is accented with white, spotted mostly on the sole and laces. Other accents on the sneaker are the flywire design, speckled mid-sole, and the work Hyperdunk across the tongue. A great way to start of the New Year is copping a pair of these Hyperdunks. More detailed pictures of the sneaker is available after the jump.

Shoe of the Decade – Nike Air Force 1

Shoe of the Decade  Nike Air Force 1

Over the course of this decade one shoe has become more than just a top seller year in and year out, it has become a staple. First released in 1982, the Nike Air Force 1 was a revolutionary basketball shoe. However, in the 2000’s, the shoe grew to new heights.
Limited runs, special releases, and overseas exclusives made the hunger for this shoe unlike any other. Coming in just three different cuts (low, mid, and high), it was evident that this rather simply constructed shoe had limitless possibilities with endless opportunities for unique color-blocking, upper materials, stitched logos, and even custom labels.
Besides making a main stay on the shoe walls at Foot Lockers in virtually every mall and sneaker boutique in America, the shoe became the canvas of choice for memorable collaborations and hyperstrikes, creating even more energy for the shoe. Nike teamed up with street artists, musicians, DJ’s, athletes, and shop owners to create limited exclusive makeups of the timeless classic.
The best years of the Nike Air Force 1 may be up for debate, but the shoe gained considerable mainstream attention after the release of Nelly’s 2002 single “Air Force Ones” and the shoe’s 25th anniversary in 2007.
The shoe has seen a slight decline in popularity and buzz following the “Year of Air Force Ones”, but it cannot be debated that this shoe was the biggest model of the decade.
