| Air Jordan Fusion 4 “Military Blue” Posted: 16 Apr 2009 12:50 PM PDT  Last month, we showed you the Air Jordan Fusion 4 “Fire Red”, and many of you were disgusted to see a classic Jordan sneaker being tarnished. However, does this Air Jordan Fusion 4 "Military Blue" sway your opinion towards the positive side? Obviously, this Fusion draws inspirations from the infamous Air Jordan IV “Military Blue”. It features a predominately white leather upper with grey straps, a grey toe area and blue accents throughout the base. As with previous Fusion models, this sneaker features the Air Force 1 sole which contains a blue (midsole) and white (outsole). Unlike the Fusion 4 “Fire Red”, this sneaker contain the visible sole unit. The Air Jordan IV “Military Blue” is arguably one of better Jordan sneakers ever created; therefore, is this particular sneaker disrespecting the classic or is this one of the better Fusions seen yet? |

| Nike Hyperize Black/Red-White Posted: 16 Apr 2009 10:24 AM PDT  Without a doubt, the Nike Hyperdunk took hardwood by storm this basketball season.

| Nike Hypermax Posted: 16 Apr 2009 08:26 AM PDT  In the latter part of the 2008-09 NBA season, we finally spotted players such as Carlos Boozer and LaMarcus Aldridge sporting the Nike Hypermax. It has been said that this sneaker is the ‘big man’ version of the Nike Hyperdunk. In addition, one of the more unique colorways of the Nike Hypermax has now dropped at select retailers. This particular Hypermax draws inspiration from one of Charles Barkley’s memorable Nike poster. A picture of the poster is imprinted on the insole. Using the exact same color scheme as the aforementioned poster, this shoe contains various coloration on the upper including red (swoosh), yellow (flywire design, ankle strap, side wall), black (midsole, heel panel, side panels) amongst other colors. This is sure to be a neck breaker to say the least. |
