DJ AM x Nike Dunk High

DJAMDunkHi1
With the end of the Thanksgiving weekend also came the end to numerous auctions held for parts of the late DJ AM’s renowned sneaker collection. However, today there is more DJ AM sneaker news. Here are some of the first shots of a collaborative effort between Nike and the acclaimed DJ, which resulted in at LEAST this one pair of the Nike Dunk high in a red/black/grey colorway. The upper consists of black patent leather with red and grey accents, while the shoe sits atop a completely white sole. On the tongue you can spot the famous DJ’s performance name, which is sure to touch many hearts. What do you think about at least this one result of a teaming up that many sneaker circles had caught wind of long before this point? You can search and find these today among only certain retailers. Check out more pix after the jump to see if your interest is peaked.

Nike Blazer High LE Velcro Holiday 2009 Collection

VelcroBlazer1
We’ve already covered a black velcro pair of the Nike Blazer high in the past several weeks, while also even previewing for you a collection of more low and high-top velcro Blazers to release next year. But now we’d like to show you two new velcro Blazers in grey/white and red/white colorways that shall be a part of this year’s Nike holiday 2009 collection. Like the black pair, these come in a solid color upper with five velcro straps, but these come with a completely white sole and patent leather on parts of the upper. Expect these to drop soon, as the holiday season reaches its peak. What do you think of the newest velcro Blazers to pop up onto the scene? How successful do you think this velcro campaign might be?

Supra Skytop II Gold

SSIIGoldie
While first reported as a sample, the predominantly gold pair of the Supra Skytop II- that generated a lot of buzz with its world tour- saw an actual release recently. On Black Friday, the Supra Factory413 flagship store in Los Angeles made these available for purchase and did an amazing job at keeping it under the radar. Now your chances at owning a pair of these are once again slim, but we’ll keep you informed of any resellers and/or restocks that would answer many prayers.

These will be releasing as early as December 1st, from select Lacoste retailers. So does the purple or the gold pair tickle your fancy more?

adidas Top Ten High Black/Collegiate Red

bredadidastopten1
Last Wednesday we relayed onto our followers news of an adidas basketball release known as the Top Ten high in an Air Force Blue. Now there are pictures of another colorway of the adidas Top Ten high set to hit select retailers, including Foot Locker stores nationwide, in December. This pair comes in a predominantly black upper, which also sports patent leather and red accents in the form of the shoe laces, adidas stripes, and outsole. It seems as though the adidas brand takes care of at least Dwight Howard’s Orlando Magic and Derrick Rose’s Chicago Bulls with every basketball release, so which of the two adidas Top Ten high colorways would you say came out on top this time? As we mentioned before, look out for this release in participating adidas retailers at some point in December.

Carmelo Anthony OWNAGE Caption Contest

carmelo-anthony-dunk-on-danilo-gallinari

As some of you may or may not have seen… last night Carmelo Anthony and the Denver Nuggets beat the New York Knicks; nothing special. What is special though, is the career high 50 points Carmelo scored in 4 quarters of playing.  While his performance was quite impressive, what doesn’t impress me is the fact that Knicks forward, Danilo Gallinari, decided to get posterized by Melo; and that is where you come in.

We want to see is the BEST comment that describes what was going on in Gallinari’s head when he decided to try and block Melo’s dunk. The best comment will win a FREE large White New York Giants Ahmad Bradshaw Jersey, sponsored by Thowbackguy.com.
