| Wood Wood x Nike Lunar Wood+ Posted: 31 Dec 2009 12:28 PM PST  The hybrid model and collaboration with Wood Wood from Nike has been hitting the shelves at various retailers lately, including UBIQ in Philly in a matter of days. If you recall from the last time we checked out this shoe, it’s a mixture of the ACG Wildwood with the Lunar line of runners. The upper uses black throughout, including the extra sturdy forefoot mudguard, designed to be protective and waterproof. The ACG roots even show through on the Lunar sole, which uses boot-style grooves for traction. If you haven’t already grabbed a pair, now is your chance. | Read the rest of Wood Wood x Nike Lunar Wood+

| Nike KD2 “Creamsicle” Detailed Photos Posted: 31 Dec 2009 11:58 AM PST  Recently, we showcased the debut of the Nike KD2 “Creamsicle” in our Kicks On Court. The majority of you agreed that the Nike KD2 is a step up from the Nike KD1. With that said, check out these detailed photos of the Nike KD2 “Creamsicle”. At a first glance, you can tell why this particular sneaker is nicknamed the “Creamsicle” because of its colorway. However, the color scheme is not the only reason this shoe is special. As seen in the photos after the jump, this KD2 is entirely reflective because of its 3M treatment. It also has additional, distinctive feautres such as the cement print-like texture on the midfoot strap, a mesh, honeycomb-like design on the tongue and royal blue Nike/Kevin Durant logos on the heel, swoosh and outsole. What are your thoughts on the Nike KD2 “Creamsicle”? | Read the rest of Nike KD2 “Creamsicle” Detailed Photos

| Kalavinka x adidas Samba Posted: 31 Dec 2009 11:28 AM PST  adidas has put in a lot of effort into representing cities all over the world with their Consortium “City Series” Collection, with Tokyo retailers and artists playing a large part. Kalavinka is the next in line with this Samba, having taken a classic soccer shoe and transformed it into a cycling sneaker. White leather comprises the upper on these, with a hit of grey nubuck on the toe cap. Royal blue stripes appear on the mid-panel, and a strip of multiple colors is used on the heel. The design element you probably notice first is the large lace cover flap, which is part of the cycle-readiness conversion of these. These have hit select retailers, including mita. | Read the rest of Kalavinka x adidas Samba

| DJ Premier x Nike Air Force 1 Posted: 31 Dec 2009 10:28 AM PST  Veteran to the game DJ Premier was blessed enough to get to design a Nike Air Force 1 with his name on it. You may not be so blessed, but you now have a chance to grab his at least. Thanks to a heads up from Daily Drop, you can grab these now. Black leather and suede work on the toe, heel and midfoot, while a deep green fills in the remainder of the upper. Laser-etched on the heel are “DJ” and “Premier” on the left and right shoes, respectively, as well as a logo on the forefoot. Golden yellow contrast stitching also breaks up the dark build of these, as it appears all over the upper. Finally, an icy clear sole finishes this design off. | Read the rest of DJ Premier x Nike Air Force 1
