Nike Zoom LeBron VI Supreme “Dunkman” Sample

Posted: 04 Aug 2009 12:23 PM PDT

Nike Zoom LeBron VI

The Nike Zoom LeBron VI Low has not surfaced in a plethora of colorways like the original Zoom LeBron VI (this may be a good thing or bad thing depending on your admiration level of the shoe); however, the few colorways that we have seen have been well-received. With that said, we have now spotted what may be the best Zoom LeBron VI Low colorway yet.

If you recall, we showed you Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III “Dunkman” at the beginning of April, and many of you did not show too much of an interest. Yet, this Dunkman sneaker obviously contains nicer features. The entire sneaker is draped in a black/green-yellow color scheme with the most glaring feature being the enlarged Dunkman logo on the side panel. Other details include a transparent Nike swoosh, a yellow/black midsole and crocodile skin texture on the heel panel and laceholder section. What are your thoughts on this sample design? Click here to view detailed photos.

When Jordan Brand and Chris Paul went to China to promote his latest signature shoe the Jordan CP3.II we had shown you the Jordan CP3.II White/Black-Blue China Exclusive which had been said to be limited only to Chinese retailers. Since then we have learned the House of Hoops stores in the United States have received these as well.

The Jordan CP3.II “China” features a mostly white upper with vibrant blue stitching. The heal of the shoe consists of an intricate black cushioned material while the panel on the heel has intricate detailed drawings in black, blue, and gold. You can see detailed pictures here. How do you feel about Jordan switching things up and releasing them in the States as well?

Nike Air Footscape

Posted: 04 Aug 2009 11:42 AM PDT

Nike Air FootscapeThe Nike Air Footscape has made a big return to the scene this summer with a few Tier Zero drops.  Hiroshi Fujiwara went to work on a couple colorups and the Hideout Woven Footscapes returned as part of the Livestrong Stages Collection.  To give everyone a shot at this uniquely designed sneaker, Nike has included two inline colorways that have just started to pop up at retailers.  Originally released in 1995, the Nike Air Footscape provided a one of a kind lacing system that went up the side of the shoes that was later used in a couple of other Nike products.

Both of these are available now at NikeStore for $110.

It was stated in early April that Michael Jordan would be inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame this September. In honor of this great feat, the James Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame has unveiled a new exhibit that allows fans and visitors to remember Jordan’s extensive legacy and accomplishments.

This newly-designed exhibit, which is a partnership product of Jordan Brand, Nike and the previously mentioned Basketball Hall of Fame, is officially named ‘Become Legendary: The Story of Michael Jordan‘. Included in this timeless portrayal will be various footwear, apparel and a collection of photos, videos, quotes and artifacts pertaining to Michael Jordan himself. It was only right for the Hall of Fame to give Jordan his own section seeing that he contributed more than you can imagine to the game of basketball.

“As Jordan Brand embarks on the silver anniversary celebration of the AIR JORDAN franchise, we are thrilled with the Basketball Hall of Fame’s efforts to honor Michael Jordan, the Hall’s Class of 2009 and their contributions to the game of basketball,” said Sean Tresvant, Director of Marketing for Jordan Brand.

Become Legendary: The Story of Michael Jordan‘ will be available for public display throughout 2009. On a bigger note, Jordan’s enshrinement will be the weekend of September 10-12th.

In the 90’s Nike had a extensive line of running shoes to pick from, one such shoe is the Nike Air Max 90 which to this day we still see Nike release. This pair will be releasing this upcoming fall sometime around Halloween. Would you rather wear these or the Nike Air Force 1 “Savage Beast” this Halloween? 

 

This back-to-school we will see Nike release the Nike Air Max 90 Black/Total Orange and an assortment of other color schemes similar to these here in the States. This pair features a mostly black upper with total orange accents in the laces, Air Max logo, and heel panel. The side paneling features a splatter type pattern that gives the shoe a unique yet simple flare. The shoes also have a grey outsole right below the visible orange Air heel unit.  If you find yourself not able to wait to buy these to wear on Halloween you can find them on sale at Europe’s Caliroots sneaker store.
