Nike Air Maxim 1 Trainer ND - Pre-order Now

Posted: 11 Sep 2009 10:28 AM PDT

Air Maxim 1 Trainer

All summer, pictures have surfaced and excitement has built for Nike’s Air Maxim 1 Trainer ND, and now you can actually pre-order these hybrids before their release.

Mixing the Air Trainer and the Air Maxim, the Air Maxim 1 Trainer uses the forefoot strap from the former in conjunction with the Air Max and Flywire technologies of the latter. The Air Maxim is itself a modernized Air Max 1, so it’s obvious that a number of Nike silhouettes were pushed together for this, a trend we’ve seen a lot of lately. The colorway itself is borrowed from the Trainer, which we saw a reappearance of earlier this summer for the Nike Trainer 1 Legacy Pack.

Hanon now has these for pre-order before their actual October release.

Dizzee Rascal x Nike Sportswear Air Max 90 “Tongue N’ Cheek”

Posted: 11 Sep 2009 10:00 AM PDT

Nike Air Max 90

Yesterday, we showed you the Nike Air Max 90 “Day of the Dead” in which many of you stated that it could possibly coincide with your Halloween costumes. However, we have now spotted an even more rare, special-made Air Max 90 dubbed the “Tongue N’ Cheek”.

This particular Air Max 90 is the product of a joint effort between Nike Sportswear, Mercury Music Prize winning recording artist Dizzee Rascal and his creative director Ben Drury. If you recall, Dizzee Rascal and Nike have worked together in the past, specifically on the Air 180. First off, this shoe was given the same name (Tongue N’ Cheek) as Dizzee Rascal’s new record. As for the makeup, this shoe contains a plethora of detailed accents throughout the base. For example, the upper is comprised of chalk white premium grade soft leather and high knap premium suede. However, one of the more interesting features on this shoe is the pink premium leather tongues. The left tongue reads, CHEEK, while the right tongue simply reads, TONGUE. The Nike Air Max 90 'Tongue N' Cheek' will be available exclusively at Nike Sportswear 1948 London on Friday, 18th September, 2009.

Nike Zoom Soldier III - Christ the King, SVSM & Think Pink

Posted: 11 Sep 2009 09:28 AM PDT

Nike Zoom Soldier III - Think PinkWith all the LeBron VII releases we’ve seen as of late, it may have been easy to forget about that “other” LeBron sneaker, the Zoom Soldier III.

Not one to be slept on, the Soldier III is releasing in three special colorways on Tuesday at House of Hoops New York location. It will come in a St. Vincent-St. Mary green and gold colorway, Christ the King’s maroon and gold, and the Kay Yow “Think Pink” charity colorway we’ve seen before. By now, most of you are familiar with this two-strap design, and also with some of the many “SVSM” sneakers we’ve seen on LeBrons in the past. The “Think Pink” color-up first appeared last basketball season on the Nike Hyperdunk, paying tribute to the late great Kay Yow, who passed of breast cancer after a long battle with her illness. No word just yet on whether these will drop at all HOH locations, so if you must have any of these limited designs, find a way to get to the Big Apple on Tuesday, September 15th.
