  • Nike Air Force 1 High Supreme Sheed – Black/Black

    Nike Air Force 1 High Supreme Sheed - Black/Black - #1

    A few days, we told you about the red and black version of the Nike Air Force 1 High Supreme Sheed and now here’s the black on black version. This monochromatic look is certain to be popular. This sneaker, which has the silhouette of Detroit Piston Rasheed Wallace on the side, has a red sole and blue on the tongue tab. Other than that, these shoes are all black.

    There is also a third colorway which is white and royal blue (see pictures after the jump). The white edition is nice, but I think this black colorway will get a lot of attention. Currently, Rasheed and his Pistons are down 2-1 to the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals. Look for these shoes at Nike retailers soon or right now on ebay.

  • Nike BMX China by Michael Lau.

    Nike BMX China by Michael Lau, shoe and toy.

    Nike has specially invited Michael Lau, a China artist and toy designer, to design the new Niike China Federation BMX Racing Team Kit for the Olympics 2008 in Beijing.

    Michael Lau was based in Hong Kong. He was a pioneer in creating vinyl toys. He had been asked to create other Nike attire before this new collaboration with Nike for BMX. One of his older collections included the Woodgrain Dunk collaboration. One of the new Nike BMX China packs has a composition of a blazer, shoe and toy.

    The picture shows the shoe and toy.The shoe has a yellow colorway and red accents. The midsole is white with a yellow arrow painted in the middle of the midsole. The back stab is red and white with black lettering. The Nike swoosh is yellow too but manages to stand out. There is a drawing in black outline on some flames and this is situated above the Nike swoosh. Michael Lau has used the same basic color combination for the shoe, blazer and toy.

    The blazer is red in color. The lettering for China and the Nike swoosh are in yellow color.

    I like this package because of the efforts to have all the items share a co-ordinated look.

  • Visvim Foley Folk

    Visvim has moved away from stylish casual shoes into the realm of functional tennis shoes with the Foley Folk. The Foley Folk is available in Japan at the moment in five colorways including white/dark brown, white/light blue and white/green. This low-top tennis shoe mixes the quality components of other Visvim shoes with the looks similar to Rod Lavers and Stan Smiths.

    The premium parts make for a great shoe that appeals to tennis players and sneaker fans. The tanned arch support is a welcome touch of color on an otherwise white shoe. Italian calf leather is used to construct the upper which ensures durability over time. I hope that these shoes make it over the Pacific to stores in the Visvim because it would diversify the sneaker’s presence in the American market.

    Air Jordan Force III - Black Cement

    Jordan Brand has released images of their sneakers that will be released in upcoming months. And that includes two colorways of the Air Jordan Force III which will come out in September.

    The black-cement colorway of the Air Jordan Force III (3) will certainly garner some attention. Using several textures, this sneaker is certainly eye-catching. This colorway may potentially be an Air Jordan Flight Exclusive.

    A white-cement colorway will also been also be available which takes on the classic white, cement and red colorway of the Air Jordan III.

    Both versions of the Air Jordan Force III are scheduled to release on September 6th 2008 for 0.

  • Nike Air Tech Challenge in Clay Blue.

    Nike Air Tech Challenge in Clay Blue

    The Nike Air Tech Challenge has a Rebel Pack II and it has this new release in Clay Blue color. The store, Proper, has these shoes in stock now.

    This sneaker has a mainly white colorway. The accents are clay blue, orange and grey. The toe box is white. It has a frame of white border. Half of the midsole is white. Around the midsole part of the toe cap, the outsole extends up. The orange and grey colored part of the outsole can be seen as a part of the toe’s midsole.

    The clay blue colored strip runs along the midsection of the shoe, right back to the heel. This strip forms the outline of the letter M. Below this clay blue strip is the accompanying white strip of leather. Below this, there are the two small hills of clay blue leather. These two hills look like they have a clay blue background that is sprayed with specks of white.The effect is quite nice.

    The Nike swoosh streaks halfway behind one hill. Behind the orange swoosh, a grey panel of leather strap extends up from the midsole. This grey strap holds a pair of eyelet holes at the end. The holes are set in clay blue sockets. The midsole at the heel has a sandwich of grey-white-grey colors. I like the overall design of this shoe.

  • Nike Air Max 90 – Patent Pack

    Nike Air Max 90 - Patent Pack -#1

    Nike’s new Air Max 90 patent pack features three great colorways – red, white and black. The shoes are very simple but the use of patent leather and other nice touches make these sneakers a terrific buy.

    My favorite of the three is the red version pictured above. Combining several different textures, along with black and white to contrast the red, these shoes are certainly eye-catching.

    For a more subtle appeal, the all white colorway is a good choice. It’s completely white except for the multi-colored sole. If you are a fan of black sneakers, the black colorway is nice and features beige laces.

    There’s no word on the release date for these but we’ll keep you posted. Via Hypebeast.
