Nike SB x Supreme – Bruin Collection

The collaboration between Nike and Supreme has been mentioned in these pages before, and we would like to add a few details with these pictures and the news that the pairs will be released on April 16th 2009 at Supreme New York and LA.

What we like most about the model is the slender, lean design that immediately catches the eye with its great conception. The colors blend well, and the attention is directed to creating a conforming masterpiece, rather than causing a revolution in the footwear scene.

The Bruin collection is certainly a valuable addition to anyone’s treasure chest. Just the two names coming together is enough to shake the world of sneakers. And if you have any questions, ask yourself if your eyes really see that well. Via Sneakernews.com

Nike Air Yeezy is about to be released

This revolutionary item from Nike is soon to hit the stores! It will be released on April 4th, Saturday in select Nike stores in the US, including the House of Hoops in Harlem. The Zen Grey and Light Charcoal colorway, we’re told, is the first design to be released.

The price is going to be $215 which is natural for the kind of richness and emotional satisfaction that these shoes will bring to our lives. The mighty design, the unusual colors, and the legendary name of Nike all promise to make this a uniquely succesful release this year.

Well, there are times when changes occur, and there are those when revolutions shake the ground. We believe that the Air Yeezy is a sample of the latter, and if you desire to check, we invite you to the stores for the experience.

A Bathing Ape Bapesta – Sparkly Patent Leather

The word for this pair is…lovely! We cannot think of any other word to characterize this special pair from Bape. Look at the bright patent leather of the upper, covered with a sparkly coat, the translucent speckled sole, and the word to be added to the “lovely” above is brilliant this time.

The brand Bape is associated with flashiness and bravado, and this design surely lives up to that reputation and the Bape name. There’s of course every reason in the world to condemn excess in favor of elegance, but when in the right hands, even such a difficult to handle concept can be concluded in a perfectly harmonious manner. This is what Bape shows us in this design.

Look at the pair again, and sing your favorite song praising beauty and joy. Once you’re done, you can head to the Bape Chapter Store to cope a pair of these. via HB

For those of you unfamiliar with Hiroshi Fujiwara, he’s considered the godfather of Japanese streetwear.  Being the man behind such lines as Levi’s Fenom, Nike’s HTM, and Head Porter, there’s no doubt that the man knows what he’s doing.  His latest collaboration with Nike comes to us in the form of the Footscape model.  This early look of two colorways doesn’t show much, but you can be sure to expect nothing but the best.

Nike Air Force 1 Womens – Pink & White Flowers

Spring time brings us this pink design from Nike which is both pretty and sturdy in a single design. Nike is well known as a designer of footwear for basketball heroes and champions, but we suspect that with this new creation they will win the hearts of beauty queens and supermodels too.

The rear quarter and the heel panel feature a pink texture with white blossoms which give the impression that the ground sprouts flowers where the owner of this pair walks. It is beautiful in a feminine, delicate way, but also strong and reliable, just like the ladies of the modern era expect themselves to be.

It pair is expected to be released at select NSW retailers, and it can also be sought at atmos, even today. It is a perfect gift for the gentle beings in our lives too. So how long are you gonna wait?

Air Jordan Force XIII (AJF 13)

This is a killer. Any and all detractors and critics of the Air Jordan brand will have their eyes gouged out by the dazzle, shine and power of this awesome design from the Air Jordan Team. just like our favorite players  rule the game of basketball, these guys rule the footwear scene, pure and simple.

This is just a sample, but the overpowering spirit of the concept is already apparent in all its glory in the red and white colorways, the mighty sole, the powerful shape and heavy look of the item. This Nike is not for all of us, but for champions of champions, the best among the best who can avoid being burnt by the power and style of the pair.

As we mentioned, this is still being refined and perfected by the master designers, but as soon as they come up something clearer we’ll update with it, so you should keep on coming and checking your favorite footwear website.

Vans Vault Needle LX – Fall 2009

Beautiful, plain and simple. The lesser beauties have to add details and decorations to cover and hide their deficiencies, but Vans Vault Needle LX is beautiful even without a single accessory.

The shoes is sleek and elegant, featuring a one-piece construction from the toe up to the side panel. The front part features tonal stitching, and the vulcanized rubber sole finishes the design with a fine and strong contrast.

They will appear in Fall 2009, and we suspect that they will be one of the most desirable items of the season then. Fortunately, the followers of Myairshoes.com don’t need to wait that long for updates. We’ll bring you more details as soon as they’re available.

adidas ZX 700 – Camo Pack

adidas ZX 700 - Camo Pack

Adidas is doing it big this year with many releases, including the adidas ZX 700 in black/camo. The ZX 700 is surely an eye-popper, combining a mocassin, boat shoe, and ZX model together in one. The boat shoe part uses black suede material on the side panel, and includes the adidas sign on it. The suede toebox features a black camo which is also found on the tongue. The mocassin part of the shoe uses a greyish black leather material along the side and toe, while the back heel shows the camo print in color. To contrast the black, the shoe has a white midsole which is offset by a blue heel panel and sole panel, and on the bottom is a black sole. So if you’re a fan of the boat shoe or mocassin, then be sure to get the adidas ZX 700 in camo.

Nike Twilight – White – Electrolime – Black

This electrifying, invigorating new design from Nike is going to rock your life! Combining the aesthetical attribute of some of the greatest designs of Nike from the past, this one comes to life with an all new spirit and a promise to amaze and surprise.

The white-black-gray upper contrasts superbly with the electrolime Nike swoosh which cuts across the texture with the power of a sword stroke. When the harmony of colors is disrupted with that addition, the effect is similar to lightning, and the viewer can’t avoid a gasp.

We sure are impressed by this superior creation. If you would like to try something new and exciting, don’t seek further: the electrolime will electrify your blood. Available at Nikestore. Via Sneakernews.com

Nike Air Force II High – Fresh Water

Fresh and crisp like cold water sprouting from a mountain spring, this new Nike is another member of the fresh water colorway pack. The colors are cool, the design is slick and beautiful. We love this one for the simple beauty of its conception.

The pair features a white-black leather upper with sections of black on black elephant print, and fresh water accents and laces. The fresh water pack may not appeal to every shoe lover equally, but it will never disappoint those who own it.

We don’t know who had the brilliant idea of designing such an interesting color blend, but we do know that many other designers are envious of his achievement. Like many others this one will be available at Nikestore. If you want to get your hands on something fresh and cool, the Nike spring will sate your thirst like no other.
