The Jordan Brand has hit us with many designs in the past and here we have a big change in their style. This pair of Air Jordan II’s features a brown leather upper with the 23 on the side as a wax stamp seal. They didn’t stop there though as they added faux-snakeskin which adds the finishing touch to this pair of what you could call dress Jordan shoes.
They also went as far as complimenting the packaging as they have included a wooden shoe tree as well as a card note that is sealed with a wax stamp. The packaging definitely adds to the style of this pair of Jordans and would make for a nice pick up.

Nike iD has been around for many years, but today, they’ve added one of the best options in a while, the Nike Trainer 1 Unleashed in both mid and low cuts. It all started with being able to make what ever color we wanted to the kicks on Nike iD, then it moved on to changing materials used in the shoe, and now we finally get to chose different aspects of the sneakers to be changed completely. What I mean by that is the construction of the shoes themselves being able to be changed, and the Trainer 1 is the best sneaker to show off the aspect.
What you want your shoe to look like never had the same meaning, with this addition of the Nike Trainer 1 Unleashed, we’re available to choose either the DiamondFLX sole of the beloved Trainer 1, or the full on Air Max 360 sole. That’s not enough for you? Well, another option is to have or completely remove the forefoot strap of the original shoe, as well as using patent leather, nubuck, synthetic leather, or mesh accents. As always, you get to chose every single colorway to your liking, so make sure to check out both styles we came up with below. Make your own pair now at Nike iD.

Last year, Nike released their Nike Dunk High AC which attracted many fans, and being released as a Tier Zero, they were nearly impossible to find. Nike has released yet another pair, and once again, they seem to be in limited quantities, in the Nike Dunk High AC Black/White/Pine Green.
Last years releases featured an all gray and an all black pairs, and this new edition takes it one step forward combining black and white, with small hints of pine green. The upper comes just like the rest of the AC releases, this time using black canvas. The white accents come in the laces, the Nike Swoosh, and in the vulcanized sole. The pine green accents come in a pinstripe above the sole, and in what seems to be a green and white Patta x Nike tongue tag logo. Like stated before, these are available now through Patta.

This Medium Gray edition Nike Dunks are a very close match to the fan titled “Un-Iron” pair of SB Dunks sharing the same details, except the grays are noticeably different. Just like the “Un-Iron” pair, these share the same all gray upper, except this gray is more of a creamy shade of gray. Hard to explain, but you will definitely notice it in the pics below. The rest of the shoe gets a Varsity Red Nike Swoosh, Varsity Red mid sole, and a Varsity Red tongue tag. The final color used is the Old Navy, seen in the sole, the laces, and in the tongue tag. These have become available at select Nike retailers World Wide, so make sure to check your local store for availability.
