NIke SB January releases



Nike SB drops a few new kicks from their January release early, probably to make it under a few Christmas trees.

First up, is the "anthracite" Dunk High. A charcoal body with a matte olive midsole atop a black outsole, make for a shoe that is must have for someone who like the darker shades in their footwear.



The “Squadron Blue” Dunk Low features Zoom Air cushioning. Its deep navy nubuck with grey accents make for a wicked combo that whispers to be worn on a daily basis..

Nike SB Dunk Low: Black & Tan


This sneaker is pissing off a lot of Irish decendants... Nike named the sneaker after the drink made by mixing stout and pale ale, usually Guinness and Harp or Bass, in a pint glass; or so they thought..

Black & Tans was also the nickname for the Royal Irish Constabulary Reserve Force who used uncompromising measures to enforce British 'Home Rule' in Ireland - and were deeply unpopular as a result.



Regardless of the insensitivity of Nike; the shoe is still a dope looking shoe and is a nice change from a green themed sneaker for St Patrick's day..

Reebok Pump Omni Lite: Hero Green



I always loved the Reebok Pump. It doesn't get much ice time these days with slimmer shoes taking more of a starting limeup these days. But I still love the look and comfort of these..

Nike SB Dunk High Clay/Black-White



2011 isn't behind usjust yet; but I've aready got a few must haves for 2012. Even though dunks an't in my rotation as often as they were; they are still found on my feet occasionally and will always be a favorite of mine.

These SB dunk Highs are no exception. The subtle shades and simplicity of the shoe is what makes it so dope. As I get get older I find myself tonig down the wardrobe and flashiness.



These drop in January and will definitely be on The Wish List.

Nike SB P-Rod 5 Mid Black/Red



As skaters move away from the bulky skate shoe to sleeker models, companys need to adjust. Nike & P-Rod trim the fat; resulting in the P-Rod 5



The 5 Mid adds a bit more beef but still stays stealth. The black/red colorway always works, as seen here..



I'd switch the laces for red or white and then these would be on my feet on the regular..

Adidas x Star Wars Fall 2011 Footwear



The collab between Adidas & Star Wars continues this fall with some very detailed pieces that pay tribute to the classic film, its iconic characters & locations.







This fall's collection features some very detailed pieces along with some pieces that are quite simple.





Its not easy to please sneakerheads or fan boys. I think this years collection can make both groups happy and provides fodder for chats in bothe fan circles/forums
