Nike SB Dunk Mid Black/Aquamarine

Nike SB Dunk Mid BlackAquamarine
Lately we’ve been seeing a lot of SB Dunk releases from Nike. I’m not complaining though, I’m just stating the facts. I’m a huge fan of the Dunks so I’m actually very excited to see another pair release, especially with the colors we’re seeing today. Something that will get sneaker heads excited is the removal of the strap which is really just used for support.
The dunks support a black upper which is made up of leather and suede. Accents found on the sneaker come to us in aquamarine and white. The aqua is found on the laces and on the tongue accenting the black very well. All of this is of course sitting on a black sole. Look for these to release at SB accounts, including Premier.

As of tomorrow you will be able to pick up a pair of these for yourself as the release date has been set for tomorrow, July 31st. The thing about this though is that it has been said for Canada but I do believe that the US and Canada are generally on the same page with release dates.

Air Jordan Fusion 4 “Laser” Detailed Photos

Air Jordan Fusion 4 8220Laser8221 Detailed Photos
Today Air Jordan has decided to give us a better look at their Air Jordan Fusion 4 “Laser.” Now, let’s be honest none of us here are a fan of the Fusions, which is why I question Jordan Brand on why they keep releasing them. Many people feel like JB has degraded their own sneaker by ruining such a classic sneaker by making it into a fusion. What do you think?
Either way Jordan Brand is still going to release these fusions. The upper comes to us in laser nubuck, which we saw a lot of when the Six Rings released a couple of months ago. Jordan Brand did chose a decent colorway which included black, red, and white but then ruined it with the thick mid-sole which is found in blue. Look for these to release in a couple of months. Detailed pictures are available after the jump.

The Nike Air Max Uptempo III is returning in a big way this year as the Air Max Uptempo 97. The first colorway, an OG look, hit shelves only a month or so ago. Now this colorway has begun arriving at select retailers, including Politics.
Foamposite-esque red covers the entire upper, while a black midsole and semi-translucent outsole provide support. Also in place is a full-length Max Air unit that paved the way for the newer version we saw most recently on the Air Max LeBron VII.
