Nike <3's Neon... So Do We!

I like the shoe, but hate the laces! Suede and patent leather = cool!
These will be out soon in the U.S :)
They do remind me of the Clark Kent 112 Pack that was recently released.

The Result Of Nike + Bowel Movements.

You may call this chocolate, or even Maple. I call it shit!
Bad Nike... bad!
Coming soon..

Nike Dunk SB Low 'Gold Rail'

Upcoming Dunk Low nicknamed 'Gold Rail', inspired by the Flinders Street Station in Melbourne. Definitely does not give off that "Gold" look, but still pretty nice colorway. I wish one of the blue was darker to give it more contrast. Rumors say this will only release in Melbourne, but others are saying it is coming to the states! We'll see come October.
I love blue, but i'm not sure how I feel about these, must see in person! More suede!

September Brings Us Mooncake And Kicks!

Seems like China has been getting a lot of play with Nike, to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in September, Nike released three shoes (Air Max 1, Blazer, Terminator). Mooncake + Rabbits = Awesome!

I personally like the Air Max 1, and MAYBE I can mess with the Blazer. I love gold, it's the closest I'll ever get to it!

Now, on to the eye-candy:

Yuck Terminators!

Rabbit!

Lips Juicy Enough To Kick!

Ladies! This exclusive Reebok x Married To The Mob x Colette collabo is releasing this weekend at Alife. Supposedly the only store in North America to carry these Freestyles, which are limited to 300 pairs worldwide. If ya'll are diggin' the big lips plastered all over the sneaker, then get your cupid on!
They are very loud indeed, reminds me of a very Valentine-y type of colorway. Don't sleep on these exclusives though!

Shoe Goo: An Adhesive Which Extends The Life Of A Shoe!

This just released in Japan, Nike Dunk Hi Premium SB 'Shoe Goo'. Nobody has even heard or seen these before, they just released out of nowhere and under the radar. I wonder how Nike managed to do that, being that usually all shoes that release have been talked about or have had sample pictures leaked. These remind me of a more subtle Mork-N-Mindys; no flashy chrome mid-section. My taste for these are bitter, I don't like too much red on my shoes! I know many people who DO like the red, so these will definitely be a good release (as if most sb's aren't...)
I must admit, though, the middle section does have some interesting denim-ish material, and the clear mid-sole is a nice touch!

The Sun Tans More Than Our Skin!

Here is an interesting collabo with solebox and asics. Not only does it have a very nice purple colorway, similar to the purple pigeons, it has the ability to change colors based on sunlight!
The upper/midsole is sensitive to the Sun, and will turn the white into purple. asics has been coming out with some fresh kicks and collabos, I can't wait to see who else will utilize this color-changing chameleon-esque type of material. My only gripe about this shoe is the billboard style advertisement of "solebox" on the heel of the shoe, other than that, this shoe is sure to be a star!
Release date is set for August 23rd.

Kan The Louis Vuitton Don

Apparently Mr. West is collaborating with LV to create a Mens shoe line! After showing off his exclusive Air Yeezy's during the Grammy's and his Glow In The Dark Tour, he will soon be sharing his love for kicks to the high-end market. I can't wait to see what this collabo will produce, I just hope it will have some creativity to it, rather than just LV LV LV LV LV all over the shoe like the famous print on the bags. I guess I know why he calls himself the "Louis Vuitton Don." Let's see if we will spot men wearing his shoe and an LV man-purse to match!
I will post pictures of the actual shoes whenever I find them first!

Do Not Pass [the production of this] Go!

Go straight to Jail, on the 'short line railroad'. This shoe is the ultimate abomination of collaborations. Monopoly, Monopoly... oh how I used to love this never-ending game, or at least it felt that way. I remember not trusting the banker with all the cash, and trying to buy up every single property I landed on.

From Board Game to sneaker, who would have thought? Reebok just lost some points from me though, although they never had much from me to begin with, this just confirmed why!
With Nike releasing more meaningful inspiring shoes, like the recent BMX Pack, or the Olympic Packs, Reebok just took another step back.
What would be interesting is if the shoe could open up flat, with a secret compartment for the board pieces/dice, then we could have a party (minus the smell of feet!)

Haiku:
Reebok, How could you?
Monopoly on a shoe?
Ugly, Ugly, Ug!

Dunk Xchange

Dunk Xchange is an event that takes place in different cities and attracts sneakerheads from all over to stop by. It's basically a sneaker convention (mainly based on Nike Dunks and Jordans) where people buy / sell / trade kicks. It's always a fun time to go at least once to check out all the crazy old school or new school designs, and also to drool over some exclusives you may never get! I might be stopping by with a couple pairs of shoes to sell :D

Anyone else down?
