Nike Air Pegasus 89 Pink/Black

The latest Nike Air Pegasus 89 pink/black colorway will drop into stores on April 1. 21 Mercer Nike Sportswear and other Nike Sportswear retailers will carry this shoe. You can also check the Nike website.

The toe box is white. The surrounding mudguard is grey and it extends to form part of the shoe lace panelling. The first underlying layer of the lace panel is black in color. The shoe lace is bright pink. The inner lining of the shoe is the same color. The double effect of a coordinated lace and lining is good. The label at the tip of the tongue said Nike in black letters. It adheres to the color scheme of black and pink. The midsection of the shoe has an extremely large Nike swoosh. It covers a great deal of the white midsection. The midsole is white and makes a good contrast with the pink outsole. There is a special emphasis on the toe with an extra peach colored pad.

The colors make this shoe look like a women’s shoe. However, the black and white color scheme is also suitable for a wide variety of uses. Some guys may like to try out this fresh colorway too. (Image)

Poison Adidas Stan Smith 2

Hziii Customizations used the mixture of ink colors as inspiration when creating the Poison Adidas Stan Smith 2. The Poison Adidas Stan Smith 2 can also be seen from a darker perspective with the black ink slowly but surely killing or “poisoning” the mint ink. The designer posted the Poison Adidas Stan Smith 2s at the Hziii Customizations Customsnkr.com blog linked here.

The exterior side of both shoes shows the mint color cutting across the black expanse in a thin line. If you imagine dropping some light ink into a dark fluid, you can see what a great job Hziii did with this design. The brush strokes that cut across the black paint may look haphazard but the image moves smoothly as the eye drifts to the toe.

Hziii used a more elaborate design on the interior side of the Poison Adidas Stan Smith 2. We see a broader band of mint green just behind the middle panel, surrounded on both sides by black paint.

Release Reminder: Air Jordan Championship Pack - Phoenix Suns
As we have all come to know by know, Jordan Brand has and will continue to release Championship Packs honoring each of Micheal Jordan’s six championship rings. This time, the focus is on the 1993 NBA Finals when MJ and his Chicago Bulls defeated the Phoenix Suns en route to Jordan’s third championship. Jordan Brand will be paying homage to that ‘92-’93 season by releasing a pair of the Air Jordan Six Rings and two pairs of Air Jordan I (1) Low Phats inspired by the jerseys of the Suns. The Six Rings features a white leather base with orange lasering, an orange midsole, and purple accents. The first AJ1 Low Phat is nicknamed the “home” colorway and has a white base accented by a silver swoosh and an orange midsole. The final Air Jordan 1 Low Phat hosts a black base with purple stitching, an orange midsole, and a white swoosh. All three sneakers are set to drop tomorrow, February 28, 2009.
