The Good, The Bad & The Ugly Posted: 01 Nov 2009 11:52 AM PST Today’s The Good, the Bad & the Ugly features a shoe release that we have finally received, one that should have released a long time ago (in our opinion) and one we wish never surfaced. The first two mentioned have been well-received by fellow sneaker enthusiasts even before it ever released. With that said, click here to see the position each sneaker holds in our weekly feature. What was your personal Good, bad and ugly this week?

New Balance 996 Grey/Black/Yellow Posted: 01 Nov 2009 10:58 AM PST New Balance brings quality and comfort to every pair produced, but the latest New Balance 996 exemplifies both qualities. This colorup of the New Balance 996 features a super soft suede and high quality mesh upper hand crafted in the USA.  The 996 features a soft full length midsole plus a heel ENCAP providing extra durability and stability.

Nike Air Max LeBron VII “Red Carpet” Detailed Look Posted: 01 Nov 2009 09:58 AM PST Feast your eyes upon these photos of the Nike Air Max Lebron VII Red Carpet. The Red Carpet name is apt for this make-up as it is, so far, the most flamboyant colorway of the LeBron VII. On the same note, this version is a better fit for the streets than the court because the typical flywire has been replaced with a heavier but neck-breaking nylon weave. The teal accenting on the shoe can’t go unnoticed. Props to Nike for going as far as lending a teal tint to the full-length air unit. There is also subtle red-orange accenting on the shoe that is highlighted if the black laces are substituted for the alternate red-orange laces. Aside from the Red Carpet’s unique characteristics, these detailed images also offer a close look at the intricate design facets of all LeBron VIIs. On the heel just above the air unit are and “L” and “J” imprinted in script on the left and right shoe respectively. These imprints mimic the tattoos on LeBron’s left and right triceps. On the laces, in place of dubres, are attached plastic slivers reading “LeBron” and “James.” These keep the laces fresh while providing a lighter alternative to heavier metal dubres. Within the collar are cushy Achilles cradles. As many of you know, these are a welcomed aid to ankle comfort and support. So, while you ravenously await and salivate, stash away a stack so you can cop these when they drop in November. Hit the hop for plenty more pictures.
