Nike Sportswear Air Footscape Woven Chukka Motion Zebra

2011-08-11T10:03:00.000-07:00

It’s been a while, but I’m back! When I saw these, I had to post it. These new kicks from the King of Kicks aka Nike is taking sneaker fashion to another level. I never thought I would show any kicks that involve a “zebra” print, but whether you like them or not, they are unique, and that is the goal of this blog.

At first glance, you may think they are Gucci or LV kicks, but if you look closer, the sportiness of these kicks starts to show itself. I’m not sure I would get them, but for the animal print lovers out there, These are for you. These go for $260 at http://www.kicks-crew.com/products_details.php?pid=2545&cat1=8&cat2=46.

Nice Shoes for Racing - Shift Racing Kicker

2011-05-16T14:55:00.001-07:00

Here we go again with another fresh set of kicks. Because the NBA season is winding down and it seems like the BULLS will be back on top again, hopefully. I want to show you guys some nice sneakers from Shift Racing. As a motorcycle rider myself, I feel there is a lack of slick kicks out there in the market. Even with Brand Jordan in the mix, there has not been much to be excited about. I have finally found some nice ones here. These are called the KICKER, from Shift Racing. These kicks give a nice street feel to them while providing the supported needed for the rider. The urban design provides style while the high top styling gives comfort and protection. Very nice. You can get them here at my favorite online cycle store: http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/1/36/25078/ITEM/Shift-Racing-Kicker-Shoes.aspx

NBA Christmas Sneakers 2010 - Lebron James

2010-12-18T09:54:00.000-08:00

I am back with another NBA Christmas special edition sneaker find. The popularity of Lebron James seems to be two-sided, some people hate him, and other still love him - mostly in Miami. But anyways, Since I showed you the Kobe version of the Christmas kicks, it is only fitting that I show you Lebron's Airmax Christmas edition. To be honest, I'm not really feelin' these kicks. Nothing special here besides the "aftermarket" green laces that provides that Christmas spirit. The overall Airmax look is sleek, but the designers should have added some green accents on the actual shoe instead of just adding the green laces. My vote is for Kobe's version. What about yours?

Lakers Fans Unite!

As a Lakers fan living in San Diego, I don't often get to watch games in person, but I wanted to design a shirt that you guys and girls can wear to the game in style. The 24 means hours in the day, and ready means the Lakers are always ready to battle. Snatch one of these up and rep for L.A. with style. Wear it to the Lakers and Heat Christmas game if you are one of those lucky people who are going. Until next time.

Here is the design:

NBA KICKS Christmas Edition - Dwyane Wade

2010-12-14T16:18:00.000-08:00

Wut up wut up, back again with another edition of NBA Christmas special edition kicks. I have to admit I made this one up because I was inspired by the Kobe kicks. The D Wade Jordans in my opinion are instant classics, so I created a mock version of what his Christmas kicks would look like. The lime green sets it off pretty nicely. I thought the middle circle is a bit plain so I added the classic Jordan logo on it. Let me know what you guys and girls think. Peace for now, I'll be back with real kicks later.

NBA KICKS Christmas Edition - Kobe Bryant

2010-12-14T15:32:00.000-08:00

Happy holidays everyone! It is that time again, shopping for and getting useless gifts. But don't worry, for the holiday season, I'm sending out some suggestions that you can put on your Christmas list. NBA stars are known to sport special sneakers for the holidays or the All-Star game, and I thought I would show you guys some that I found.

This one here below is pretty freaking sweet! The Black Mamba (aka Kobe Bryant) Christmas kicks. I love the green color as well as the snake skin look. I believe these are about $250, so you better start saving now. I'll post more as I find them. Late!

New Lebron James Logo Unveiled

2010-09-21T14:45:00.000-07:00

What's going on everyone! It has been a crazy off season with all these big name trades. Props to the "B Squad" winning the world championship. Does Shaq really think he can win another championship with the Celtics? Talking about jumping his big ass on the bandwagon. Anyways, as a designer, I love doing new logos and this would be the perfect time to unveil my new Lebron James logo with the number 6. After all, his number and team changed, which makes his current 23 logo obsolete. Well, here is my take on the new logo. let me know what you guys think. I have been busy, but I'll be back to review some new kicks soon. Peace for now.

What do you think Nike?

Lebron James is Going to Miami

2010-07-08T13:25:00.001-07:00

It was Steven A. Smith, who I would consider the most trustworthy NBA insider who broke the news about James heading to Miami with D Wade and Bosh. There has been much speculation in where all three of these dudes are going. So far so good for Steven A, he is 2 for2, headed for a perfect 3 for 3.

If you think about it, James has the best chance to win in Miami, if that is what he wants. Through all the breakdown of the salary crap, oops I mean cap, Miami can sign all three players to a max contract of 16.6 mil/yr.

What topped it all off is that Yahoo reported that James is having party in Miami right after the "announcement". If that doesn't give it away, I don't know what else will. But does that make the Heat favorites to beat the Lakers next year? Maybe, we will see.

ps: If I'm wrong about this, my bad!

Not a bad look

No Laces Necessary

2010-03-11T14:15:00.000-08:00

Wut up, I'm back! Sorry for being gone for so long. But I'm back with a new and fresh pair of kicks. These new Nike Blazer AC Highs are the cleanest kicks I have seen since.... I can't remember. But i really dig the straps which is really trendy right now. The shiny leather is definitely an attention grabber and the overall look deviates from the classic Blazer and brings in a new look. Check back soon for a new find. Get them at Sneakerhead.com. Good look

Dwayne Wade Air Jordan 2010 - An Instant Classic

2010-01-15T17:53:00.000-08:00

I was waiting for the day that D Wade made the switch from Converse to Brand Jordan. It is about time. Throughout the years, Wade proved that he is a star among stars, even having a taste of the gold trophy. It is pretty obvious why he made the switch, $. Plus he knew that the 23 brand have great looking, yet functional kicks. Air Jordan 2010, which is set to debut at All-Star weekend, these will be flying off the shelves. It starts with a very sleek and slim design, which automatically improves speed, and the mid-top still provides good protection for the ankles. They have an overall modern yet sporty appeal.

Zoom Kobe 4 Rings Special Kicks

2009-10-28T14:03:00.000-07:00

Last night during the Lakers opening night, it was a great ring celebration capped off by a win over the Clippers. However, the kicks that Kobe was wearing really caught my eye and I'm sure many or yours as well. These Zoom Kobe's are the 4 Rings special edition. These are freakin' nice. Great color combination with an aggressive look. I'm not sure if they are on sale yet, but I found a website where you can pre-order. Thanks to KixFiles.com.

Comeback Special: Air Penny 1/2 Cent

2009-10-19T11:33:00.000-07:00

Just when I thought the classic Air Penny could not get better, it just did. The Nike Air Penny 1/2 Cent kicks is a combination of classic style and contemporary design. The popular Air Max bubble remained in the shoe but the foam composite body adds a new element while reducing weight, a perfect combination. These kicks are not due to release until late this month, but they have been spotted around town.

Nice Touch on a Classic

2009-10-14T10:31:00.000-07:00

It has been a minute, but I'm back with a new fresh kick. There is nothing better than a nice clean pair of kicks. But these Nike Blazer joints I found add a nice touch to a clean classic. I personally own a pair of Blazers and I love them. The only thing is that you have to widen the laces quite a bit to get into them because of the narrow design of the kicks. Besides that, they are great for causal wear as well as date night. Back to these Blazers, the nice graphics that are incorporated into the heel really adds a nice element to these kicks. Peace for now.

Lamar Odom "Married?"

2009-09-28T14:31:00.000-07:00

Usually when people get married, it is a happy and memorable time, but this "thing" with that Kardashian girl is just weird. I'm definitely not here to hate, but why is LO marring this chick? If he is truly in love with her, than I fully support him, but if there are other reasons like getting into the entertainment spotlight or getting a reality show, then that is just stupid. It will be interesting where this goes. I would not be surprised to see LO in those dumbass gossip magazines soon. I just hope it does not affect his game on the court. Check back for updates to this madness.

Get Readay for B-Ball Season

2009-09-24T13:20:00.000-07:00

The basketball season is just about a month away. It is time to start looking for that pair of season sneaks that will be the foundation to your championship run. I have to say that Eastbay is the best place to get the sneaks you want in the colors you need. The pair I'm showcasing today is the Nike Hypermax. I have a pair of these and they are extremely comfortable as well as stylish. I know we always worry about ankles, but these have the ankle support you need without restricting your crossover dribble or the drive to the lane. Two words, " Game Time!".

Talkin' SHMACK

2009-09-17T11:04:00.000-07:00

I'm back! I have been a bit busy doing some design work and I finally got a chance to showcase a new shoe. These below are called "Remmington Chukka" from SHMACK. When I first saw these, they caught my eye right away. I usually don't like kicks with patterns on them but these are really fresh. The nice upper pattern with the cleanness of the white sole creates a perfect combination. Sweet!

Hybrid Kicks of the Day (Timberland MBRS CKKA)

2009-09-14T11:44:00.000-07:00

Getting Creative

2009-09-10T09:04:00.000-07:00

Ever since I saw the first pair of Creative Recreation sneaks, I knew I would feature them more than once. Here I am again to show you guys another fresh design from CR. I just love how they incorporate the strap in a stylish way without it looking like an old man's shoes. This pair is called "Dicoco". Great pattern design with the shiny leather kind of reminds me of the MJ 11's. These are definitely fresh. Props to Sneakerhead.com. Got some designing to do. Peace for now.

Ballin' on a Budget II

2009-09-08T10:50:00.000-07:00

A while back, I made a post called Ballin' on a Budget, the best kicks under $20. Since then, people have been asking me to post more sneaks like that because, as we all know, most nice kicks don't come cheap. I am going to make this a weekly thing if I can find some. This is not just about finding any shoes under $20, but they have to be nice too.

This week I'm featuring a pair of Pony "City Wings". When we talk about b-ball sneaks, we usually don't think of Pony, even though they were the premiere kicks back in the old school days. These are a pair of sleek b-ball shoes that come in a wide variety of color-ways to match your team colors. Only $20 at Eastbay, my favorite sneak shop.

Get Alife

2009-09-04T09:19:00.000-07:00

No, I'm serious, get Alife. These tight NY based sneaks company comes out with some fresh kicks. I first featured them a while ago, but had to come back to it because the variety of nice styles just keep coming. Today, I'm featuring the "Everybody High" model. These are a bit different from the traditional sneaker designs and uses the plad pattern really well not to mention the nice colors.
Enjoy!

Gotta Have it Sneaks of the Day

2009-09-02T08:59:00.000-07:00

I hate to over-saturate this blog with MJ's all day, but I have to pay tribute to these classic Air Jordan 1 Hall of Fame Edition. These special kicks actually comes in a set of 3 different sneakers, but I chose this one because they look the best and it truly pays tribute to the classic Air Jordan 1's with some great designs to spice it up. Great casual sneaks or if you really want to impress suckas, sport them next time you play some pick-up ball. (Not recommended) These kicks will be a great collector's item for years to come.

Reppin' Reeboks

2009-08-31T11:24:00.001-07:00

Just when I thought Reeboks were on their way down, they surprise me again. You can say that Reebok has always been Nike's little brother in terms of sneaker design and sales. It seems as if Reebok is always trying to catch up with Nike with new kick designs. Nike has dominated the market for some time now, and I want to take this time to give Reebok some props and get you guys wearing them again. Check these out below. they are called "EX O FIT BASQUIAT". They are designed by graffiti artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. These kicks have a throwback look with a street, graffiti style designs. I usually don't like busy designs on shoes, but this pair just works.

Eastbay Pick of the Day

2009-08-27T12:44:00.000-07:00

There is no explanation here except these are a pair of styled up classic MJ 12's. Sported by Melo a couple years back, these kicks have always been a favorite of many ShoeNuts. The black on university blue combo creates a sleek look. You can even play with these outdoors and it won't get that dirty because it is mainly black. Lace these on and it might improve your fade away jumpers.

Catch These if You Can

2009-08-24T13:01:00.000-07:00

The days of low top, ugly-ass Puma kicks are no more. The old school Pumas were never my taste. Their sneaks were always too skinny and flat with minimum style. After doing some research, I found a pair of Puma's that actually look nice. These kicks are called "Roader Hi Prep School" and feature a high top canvas structure with a checkered design which would look clean with your Argyle sweater.

MJ x 2 - Legends Collide

2009-08-21T15:06:00.000-07:00

I came into this post with an intention of showcasing my favorite Jordan's of the day, but when I saw these, I just had to pay some tribute to the other MJ, Michael Jackson. As soon as I saw these, I fell in love with them. These are a pair of MJ 1's fused with a little King of Pop Flavor. These unique kicks features an image of the two MJ's playing ball in the Jam video. The overall design of the shoe is nicely done and overpowered by useless patterns and images. Mad props to whoever came up with this design.

Classic Meets Luxury, a Great Combination

2009-08-20T08:41:00.000-07:00

What do you get when you mix street and luxury? In terms of sneakers, you get the Nike Air Force 1 LUX '07 Masterpiece Crocodile Edition. Only this shoe deserves such a long name and a price tag of $1000. These AF1 Crocs combines the street style of the classic Air Force One sneakers with the elegant and sophisticated touch of crocodile leather design. These limited edition sneaks features an authentic crocodile leather upper, 18k gold plated accents, and it is made in Italy so you know it is good quality and not some kid in his garage using watercolor paint to customize his kicks. I have to admit, when I first saw it, I wasn't diggin' it that much, but the more I look at it, the more I love it. If you want a pair, you better have a hefty bank account because I have seen these kicks sell for $1000 and up. Start saving shoenuts! I found several website that sell these, but Fightclubla.com has the cheapest at $875. Be careful of fake ass rip offs that sell for one or two hundred dollars, they look cheap and fake.

So Fresh n' So Clean

2009-08-19T10:26:00.001-07:00

As a ShoeNut, I'm always on the lookout for new shoe companies that are not in the mainstream and showcasing their designs. After some late night browsing (for shoes of course), I found a company called CREATIVE RECREATION based in Los Angeles. It is not often that I like every sneaker that a company puts out, but this one comes close. Their use of colors, patterns, and Velcro straps takes sneakers to the next level. From high top to low top, there is something interesting about every single one of their sneakers. I decided to feature one that is my favorite among all the other favorites called "Cesario". My eyes lit up as I saw this pair. These high tops feature a toe strap that is not often seen, but done well here along with a intricate design pattern on the side. This is truly a work of art. I found these at Sneakerhead.com. This website sells some pretty nice and original as well as retro b-ball kicks. Props to Sneakerhead.com.

London's Track Star - Walsh Bolton

2009-08-19T09:05:00.000-07:00

Every once in a while, I get companies asking me to review and showcase their sneakers. I would not do it most of the time because I did not like their designs. I did not want to do it just to do it. Plus, I do not get paid for it so I only want to feature shoes that I like and I think you guys might like. I came across a London based company that offers nice running sneakers. The company is called "WALSH BOLTON LONDON". The structure of their sneaks reminds me of Saucony's, which are really comfortable. One thing that really drew me to their style is their variety of color combos. Most of the color choices works well with the style of the shoes and it is not ridiculously weird. If you enjoy a jog or run from time to time, check these out.

Shiekh.com Pick of the Day

2009-08-18T15:16:00.000-07:00

As I have mentioned before, I sometimes browse mall store websites (Footlocker, Finish Line...) for shoes that are easier to find, yet still original and fresh. One store I often visit is Shiekh. (looks like Shrek) From the time they opened several years ago, I have noticed that they carry shoes that are not in other stores such as Footlocker. Today, I checked out their website to find several pairs of nice sneaks that are worth mentioning. But when I had to choose, I went with these below. These are called Vlado "Aristocrat". Besides the crazy, but not stupid color combination, I think these kicks are very unique in the design. The double strap works well with the high top design. The Fat top strap gives it a sleek and aggressive look. This may be an acquired taste!

Ballin on a Budget - Best Bball kicks under $20

2009-08-18T09:42:00.000-07:00

Ever since I can remember, the best b-ball kicks are usually in the $100 and up club. I did not grow up rich so I only got MJ's every couple of years for a special present. With the economy in the state that it is, you don't have to buy super expensive kicks to ball in. I have searched the net for the best looking shoe under $20 and here is my pick. This pair below is the Adidas NBA Bounce Artillery II. These kicks has the style and the "Bounce technology" to match. I found these from Eastbay.com, which is one of the websites I visit most for good sneaks at a great price. I was just looking around and expecting to find a pair of flip flop sandals for $20, but I found these Adidas that caught my eye, and they're only $20. Game on!

Skate with Swag

2009-08-17T14:28:00.001-07:00

Believe it or not, I used to skateboard for a couple of years back in the day. I have always liked skate shoes because they were always so comfortable. I quit skating after spraining both my ankles multiple times. From then on, I stuck with what I did best, which was breaking people's ankles on the b-ball court. I still enjoy a pair of nice skate shoes from time to time and I found a pair of fresh ones I know you guys will like. These are called "DOUBLE LIFE PROJECT X SIXPACK" by DC, probably the best skate shoe maker out there today. I love the street look to these and the great design that goes along with it. I wouldn't recommend skating in these because they are so nice, but if you do, the mid top design will allow for ankle support which is what you need most out of skate shoes. So Nice!

Customizing a Classic (Air Force 1's)

2009-08-17T12:36:00.000-07:00

There have been many attempts by people customizing a pair of Nike Air Force 1's. I have to be honest; most of these designs are probably not going to be picked up by Nike. However, I have found a few pairs that deserve some attention. I really believe that good designs are simple, yet stylish and not overwhelming with nasty color combos and amateur graphics. These AF1's I found from Solebrother.com demonstrate that if you put hard work and some design sense into it, you too can customize your own sneakers.

Too Cool for School

2009-08-15T07:32:00.000-07:00

I believe school is just around the corner. I don't know because I haven't been in school for a few years now. (I'm 25) I miss those days where I would get a fresh new pair of sneakers for back to school. My mom would take me to Footlocker and I would usually get a pair of some white kicks. There is no better feeling than sporting a new fresh pair of white sneakers. No, maybe there is a few things better! If you are in school or even out of school, I found a pair of sneaks I know all of you guys will love. It is called "King" from Royal Elastics. These are some freaking nice slip on kick with a brown and beige combo that is not to be missed. Damn, I want those!

Euro Sneaker of the Day

2009-08-14T09:33:00.001-07:00

When it comes to fashion, NY is second to none when it comes to the latest trends in fashion, even though some of it questionable. After backpacking through Europe last year, I found tons of sweet sneakers that are not available in the U.S. Most of these shoes contain bright greens and yellows contrasting with other bright colors which make most of them look like clown shoes, but when a pair is designed well, I have to show it to you guys.

This pair is the latest I found from a NY company called "Alife". I have never heard of this company before, but when I saw these shoes, I had to get them, unfortunately, they are sold out. I found this pair from a European site called Sneakershop.dk. There are others in this website, but none really worth mentioning. When I find more, I will share them with you guys. Later.

Stylin' on the Football Field

2009-08-14T08:56:00.000-07:00

I know that everyone is excited for the football season to start. I know I am. Whether you are playing at the high school or college level, you want to step on the field with style. It is not that easy to find a pair of stylish cleats, but I did some research and found my top football cleats you should considering buying.

VICK to Philly

2009-08-14T08:14:00.000-07:00

I woke up this morning and turn on my clock radio to am570 as I always do. Stumbling to get a fresh towel, I heard the news, " Vick has signed with the Eagles". I thought to myself, cool! I know there are people out there that think he should not get a second chance, but personally I think the crime fit his punishment. He grew up thinking dog fighting was OK, so he had no idea of the outrage it can cause. I think that now he has wasted a couple years of his life, I think he truly now understands the depth of his crime. I will not say that he has changed, but hopefully he will take advantage of this great second chance with the help of Tony Dungy, and go out in the field and do what he does best. However, if he gets committed of another crime, it doesn't matter what it is, he should be banned for life. "That's all I have to say about that." - Forrest Gump.

Style Points for Adidas

2009-08-13T16:40:00.000-07:00

I don't know about you, but when I hear the word "Addidas", I think of the three stripe shell toe kicks that everyone in elementary school was wearing. In terms of "style", Addidas does not usually jump into one's head. However, after doing some shoe research, I have found a few Addidas sneakers that are worth taking a second look, like the one I found below called "Ciero". This shoe looks simple, yet stylish, which is the best kind in my opinion. The red accents on the black shoe creates a nice look to this shoe. I found this one at Zappos.com.

My Footlocker Pick of the Day (J.Kidd Throwback)

2009-08-13T15:01:00.000-07:00

Every once in a while, I like to browse Footlocker.com for some shoes even though most of the shoes they carry are not that good. But today, I found a pair that is worth mentioning. It seems if there is a theme of bringing back retro shoes these days. These sneakers are the Jason Kidd Nike Air Zoom Flight (many people called them space shoes). I loved these shoes when they came out. they are unique but not too flashy. They are extremely lightweight because the side is mostly made out of foam. The low top design gives you the room to spin baseline or drive the lane. I would definitely recommend these sweet kicks. Good job Nike for bringing them back to the mainstream.

From Shirts to Shoes – Lacoste Does it Right

2009-08-13T14:13:00.002-07:00

There are many clothing companies out there that try their hand at shoes, but often fail. But not Lacoste. If you like the clothing that Lacoste offer, their shoe collection is something not to be overlooked. Similar to their clothing lines, some Lacoste shoes are actully stylish! Even though they do have some “old man” shoes, Lacoste actually have some nice looking kicks. I am always on the net looking for nice feetcovers (shoes) and I found these Lacoste ones called “Observe Hi Silk”. These are a pair of nice shoes that look extremely comfortable and stylish at the same time. I found these at Zappos.com. Check out the Lacoste collection Here!

Killin’ them with Freshness – Jhung Yuro

2009-08-13T14:13:00.001-07:00

I love sneakers of all shapes and sizes. When I’m not crossing foos over and driving to the lane, I enjoy a pair of fresh casual shoes that is unique, but smooth at the same time. I have been a huge fan of Jhung Yuro shoes for quite some time now. I think his designs are simple and unique, but at the same time it has alot of style. There are many styles in his collection that I would get, but haven’t because they are pretty pricy. (average $150 for a pair) But if you got the $, it is definitely worth taking a look. Check out the collection HERE!

NBA NEWS

2009-08-13T14:11:00.000-07:00

Growing up in LA, I have to admit I am a Laker homer. I have watched the lakers since I was 4 years old. I have seen the ups and downs of this team throughout the years. I am extremely happy that the Lakers won and Kobe finally can get the haters off his back. I just have one thing to say:

“Shaq, tell me how Kobe’s ring taste!”.

Now Shaq is trying to hop on Lebron’s crybaby back and win a title. But I know for a fact they will not win. Shaq will just slow the Cavs down just as he did in Phoenix. Moving on,

The Lakers picked up Ron Artest. I love this move. Especially with LO coming back. Essentially the Lakers got rid of Ariza for Artest, which is a no brainer for me. Artest’s intensity on the court is something to be admired. I think he goes “crazy” sometimes because he is so into the game and the passion of the game took over his emotions. That is someone the Lakers definitely need on their squad.

Back to Back in 2010! Catch you guys later.

Throwback to the 90's AIR PENNY 1

2009-08-13T14:10:00.000-07:00

I play tons of basketball in my free time. I am always looking for the best shoes that feel light, comfortable, and allows for maximum maneuverability. But the newest isn’t necessary the best.

The most recent pair of b-ball kicks I got was the Air Penny 1. The original Anfernee Hardaway shoes. These shoes are light, comfortable, and are great for indoor or outdoor play. The low top fit allows you to turn the corner or cross your opponent over with ease. I really like these shoes, but it takes a couple of times to actually mold to your feet. Once you have broken them in, they are awesome. These are kind of hard to come by with the orginial Orlando Magic colors.

I found them here if you want to get them: Buy Air Penny 1

Which is Your Favorite Jordans?

2009-08-13T14:03:00.000-07:00

Any person that likes basketball enjoys a pair of Air Jordans from time to time. Air Jordans and basketball go together like beer and wings. MMM. wings! There are I believe 23 versions of Air Jordans out there, but the latest ones seems to be not the most popular ones. Which is your favorite Jordans? Feel free to add your favorites and explain why. Let me tell you mine. AIR JORDAN 11! Arguably the best MJ kicks ever. Again, when I talk about a good shoe, it is not just about looks. It is about the whole package: Design, Lightness, Fit, and overall comfort. I think this shoe has it all. I had the original white on black, but what I really want is the white on white. SOOO Clean! What do you guys think?
