Lebron VII "MVP" WILL release!

We have heard about the Nike Air Max Lebron VII "MVP" kicks before but now it is being said that they will actually release sometime this year!

Some of you may know, that even though I own a pair of VIIs, I am not the biggest Lebron fan (even less of one now that he didn't join my boys in CHICAGO) but I do like his sneakers! As much as I may dislike him, I can't deny that he is now in the same category as Jordan, Magic and Wilt Chamberlain! We can separate him from the rest due to his honorary "MVP" sneakers!


MVP on the inside ankle of each shoe as well as "Witness History" across the back of both shoes! 
White leather back, fleece mid with White Flywire, with Gold on the NIKE Swoosh!
Gold also ties in to the MVP, "Witness History" as well as in some stitching!
The Crimson can be sen along the sole, laces and inner lining.


To honor his back-to-back MVP awards, on the inside of each Crimson tongue, there is '08-09' and '09-10' as well as the MVP Trophy, stitched in Gold. 




These kicks are set to be released this year, but a date has yet to be set!



NIKE + LIVESTRONG



Last month, Nike and Lance Armstrong's LIVESTRONG Foundation got together and released two sneaker, one Low Nike Sweet Classic for the men and one Nike Sweet Classic High for the ladies. They both brought Hope on the Tongue tag and on the Low, a repeat Bicycle pattern on the sole.
















Before deciding exactly which designs and which Sweet Classic they wold release, Nike and LIVESTRONG played around with a few ideas. One of the sample shoes, that is actually never set to be release, has been put on eBay! The shoe is a White Classic High with Yellow, Black and some Grey accents.

White Canvas on the entire upper of the shoe.
Black NIKE which seems to be patent leather (But also just looks like "paint").
Grey tied in on the heel and tongue tag.
Yellow accents around the White Rubber sole, Nike on the heel, LIVESTRONG tag on the ankle as well as the tongue border!


This "Sample" design is actually NEVER set for release, which is sad to me because I think they are the best pair!
This pair is currently available on eBay in a size 9.5 with a starting bid of $60!

A Few Pairs of Supras!

Supra Pilot "Grey Waxed Fleece"
All Grey, even lace eyes and laces, other than the White Sole.
Fleece, expected to drop in the Fall!



Supra "Belay"
To some, a Slimmed down Cuban, the Belay is Low-Cut, casual slip-on!
Seersucker and Grey Waxed Fleece on top and the Black/Grey Suede and Cabernet Patent Leather/Reptile Print on the bottom.
Set to be released in the Fall!

Similar, in fabric build, the Supra NS Cutler, is set to be released!




Supra TK Society "Keffiyeh" Customs
Fresh & Fly Customs
Inspired by a headdress traditionally worm by Arab men, the color choice was taken from the Palestinian Army uniform, Avacado Green and Black.
F&F added Infrared accents on the back.
Available in Size 10 through the F&F Webstore for $130.

Vans Crayola Collection

Here is a little look into the collection!! Some Slip-On, some Lace-Up, some with crayons drawn on them! All in all, a cute collection!



Nike Air Max 24-7s

This colorful pair of 24-7s is a Kid Style. 
White and Silver Mesh and Synthetic Leather upper.
Spring color lace loops make these POP!
Deep Pink NIKE and 360* air sole.



This is also a Kids Style kick.
Released after the colorful pair above, Nike wanted kids to have a more subtle color choice.
Similar to the Rainbow 24-7, these also have the White and Silver Mesh/Synthetic Leather upper.
A Single secondary color of University Blue is found on the NIKE, Lace Loops and 360* Air Sole.



This is a Men's pair set to be released as part of the Fall/Holiday Collection of 2010. 
Mostly black leather upper with some patent leather along the mudguard. 
Silver is seen on the top of the mudguard, heelguard and in the 360* air sole.
White accents are seen in the NIKE, tongue and lace loops.
Reaching stores in the next few weeks but are available through pre-order on eBay.



Air Jordan 7 Olympic

For the Love of the Game



Unlike the rest of the "For the Love of the Game" pack, the Olympic has stayed true to its OG colorway and not draped in University Blue. 
The Gold Heart shaped basketball is the only detail that separates these from the OG pair and ties the entire collection together. 
US release is dates are blurry right now but I will keep my eyes open for them!




Nike Air Force 1 Glass Blue


This is a Womans AF1 High in a "Glass Blue."
Leather and Ballistic Mesh combine for comfort on this shoe.
Perfect offset for the Blue sole, Air, and NIKE.
I haven't bought a pair of AF1s (other than a few pairs of Fusions) in a good 3 years, but I have to admit I like this "Glass Blue" a lot and just might have to cop these in the next few weeks.
