    Nike Air Force 1 CB Phoenix Suns

    Three more versions of the Charles Barkley Air Force 1’s featuring the Phoenix Suns colors are set to be released.

    The Nike Air Force 1 Premium CB Phoenix Suns is the premium choice of the three, featuring a Stealth/Varsity Purple/Orange Blaze colorway. This shoe is relatively simple but the Swoosh really stands out, giving it a unique quality. This sneaker is priced between $135 and $145 at Kix-Files.

    The Nike Air Force 1 CB Phoenix Suns Purple features a combination of black and varsity purple for a hot color combination. This is my favorite shoe of the three as the black and purple look very good together. It’s priced from $95-$105.

    The Nike Air Force 1 CB Phoenix Suns Orange features several shades of orange accenting a Stealth shoe. I do not like this colorway at all. It would have looked much better if the orange was paired up with white or even black. It just doesn’t mesh well with the Stealth at all. This shoe is priced the same as the purple version.

    All three shoes are available for pre-order right now at Kix-Files through December 3rd. They will then be shipped from Hong Kong on the 4th or 5th.

  • Custom Nike Air Max Stats That Would Make Prince Proud

    This pair of Nike Air Max Stats leaves the original version of these basketball shoes in the dust. The Air Max Stat is the signature shoe of Phoenix forward Amare Stoudemire but the simple high top with black/white accents does not befit a player of his stature. The custom Air Stats pictured above offer a flashy royal purple/orange that would fit well with the Phoenix Suns’ color scheme.

    The NBA and other professional leagues are only interested in the flash of players, not the flash of the apparel. These shoes would not get past the puritanical censors that watch for baggy shorts, non-sanctioned socks and other NBA fashion faux pas. The promise of a player like Stoudemire lifting off from the middle of the lane to dunk over Dirk Nowitzki in these shoes will have to stay in the mind of custom shoe lovers. If nothing else, Prince could use these custom Nike Air Max Stats if he ever plays “Purple Rain” at the NBA All Star Weekend.

    Air Jordan VIII Retro Aqua

    Over at Overkill, you can find the Air Jordan VIII Retro “Aqua.” These shoes were released this month and are some of the retro kicks on the market. From back in 1993 when Michael Jordan was busy winning a championship against Charles Barkley and the Phoenix Suns, these sneakers are definitely classics.

    The aqua colors really stand out with the rest of the shoe being black. If you look at the front of the shoe, you can notice some slick crossing straps that add an extra element to these kicks.

    On the tongue, there is the traditional Air logo in red surrounded by even more aqua. These shoes are absolutely one of the best releases of the month.
