Air Jordan VI Lakers

Air Jordan VI Lakers
These Air Jordan VI Lakers edition comes in a mix of black nubuck leather and black suede. The rest of the shoe is actually very tonal, with only using white in the heel tab,in the Jordan Jumpman, and in the translucent white mid sole. The Lakers accents though comes in the stitching throughout the entire sneaker. The mix of yellow and purple stitching, in my opinion is not that great, but the color scheme is great. There’s no actual release date as of yet, but Marqueesole has a few pairs available now.

Air Jordan 16.5 – Black/Varsity Maize/Red

Air Jordan 165  BlackVarsity MaizeRed

These aren’t quite the PEs seen on the feet of Dwyane Wade. Yet, they’re as close as you can get to the shoes on Flash’s feet without spending some egregious amount of money. Save for the “Flash 3″ emblazoned tongue, these Black/Varsity Maize/Red Air Jordan 16.5s bear the same make-up that Wade has used this season.
Somewhat surprisingly, the 16.5 has received complimentary reviews both performance-wise and aesthetically-a grace that is not often lent to non-numbered Jordans. You can grab these now at Finish Line for $125.

Nike Vandal Club Purple/White-Black

Nike Vandal Club PurpleWhiteBlack

At the end of December, Nike unleashed the Vandal Hi Vintage “Neon Nylon” Pack in which many of you did not like because of the dirty, worn out look they possessed. On the contrary, Nike has just released a very clean-looking Vandal at select retailers such as LTD.
First off, this particular Vandal was designed solely for the women this time. However, we’re sure some of you guys will be looking for this shoe as well. This Vandal owns a similar color scheme to the Nike Vandal “Screwed Up” that was supposed to be a tribute to Houston, Tx. It is smothered in club purple leather with black piping and white accents seen throughout the base. Yet, its most glaring attributes can be found on the toe area and midfoot where black/grey animal print-like pattern is visible. To finish it off, this Vandal is complimented with a white midsole and a club purple outsole. Guys, are you jealous? Click here to view more photos.

Nike Blazer Hi

Nike Blazer Hi

Nike has concocted a new Blazer colorway that will leave some with the Air Jordan XI “Space Jams” on their minds. This Blazer Hi has an all-black upper and sits atop a white sole. A blue trim separates the upper and midsole and pushes the overall shoe towards a likeness of the Space Jams.
Without characteristics such as an icy sole and patent leather, these are most definitely not Space Jams. They do, however, possess qualities that the Space Jams lack. They’re currently available and relatively cheap with a price tag of $78. Scoop them now at Premium Laces.
