Nike Auto Force 180 Black/Black

Posted: 15 Jun 2009 12:43 PM PDT

Earlier today, we showed you the Nike Auto Force 180 that is inspired by the Air Force 180 Charles Barkley wore during the 1992 Olympics. However, we had now spotted the simplest colorway to date seen on the newly-designed Auto Force 180.

It features a 100% black leather upper made of leather and nubuck. To coincide with the base, Nike added a black toe cap to this hybrid. The white vulcanized sole gives this shoe a nice contrasting look to it. Along with the previous colorways, this shoe will drop during the holiday season. Although the color scheme is simple, could this be the best Auto Force 180 colorway yet?

We’ve seen a good number of colorways now in the Jordan Flight 45 silhouette. Though some of the traditional Jordan colorways were well received, the Command Force Sample colorway seemed to be the most popular.

Today we get a look at the latest colorway of the Jordan Flight 45, which features a combination of white, cement on the strap, and elephant print. Of course no colorup like this is complete with a little black and red added to the mix.

Available now at MarqueeSole for $170.

Air Jordan 12 Retro “Rising Sun”

Posted: 15 Jun 2009 10:02 AM PDT

Yesterday, the Air Jordan 12 “Playoffs” surprisingly re-released at UBIQ. Although you may have missed your chance to purchase the Air Jordan 12 “Playoffs”, we now have spotted an exclusive colorway of the Air Jordan 12 set to drop later this year.

Why is it nicknamed the “Rising Sun” you ask? This particular Air Jordan 12 draws inspiration from Japan’s rising sun flag. It features a 100% white leather base with minimal varsity red accents along the tongue and heel. Also, the inner lining and sections of the outsole and heel are colored in black. Other features include metallic silver laceholders, heavily perforated side panels and white shoelaces. Many of you stated that the Air Jordan 12 “Nubuck” is the best Jordan sneaker release thus far. Will this Air Jordan 12 Retro “Rising Sun” dethrone it?
