Nike Air Max Griffey Swingman Remix Posted: 03 Aug 2009 11:35 AM PDT Ken Griffey sneaker fans should already be satisfied seeing that the Nike Air Griffey Max 1 came back in its two original colorways earlier this year. However, Nike now goes in a different direction while still incorporating the Ken Griffey signature line. Combining elements from the aforementioned Nike Air Griffey Max 1 and the Nike Air Griffey Max 2, this particular sneaker has been dubbed the Nike Air Max Griffey Swingman Remix. It features a predmominaely ballisitc mesh upper with a patent leather strip surrounding the base at the bottom. This detail, along with the black/red-white color scheme and the white/black pair, makes us wonder where the inspirations came from (hint hint…Air Jordan 11). All the latter pair needs is some concord accents, right? Available now at the Nike’s online store for $95. | Read the rest of Nike Air Max Griffey Swingman Remix © George Kiel III for NiceKicks.com, 2009. | Permalink | 7 comments | Add to del.icio.us Post tags: Nike, Nike Air Max Griffey Swingman Remix |
Nike Air Force 1 Supreme Max Air Posted: 03 Aug 2009 10:33 AM PDT When we first showed you this Nike Air Force 1 Supreme Max Air last week, the majority of you overlooked this sneaker by stating it was nothing special. Yet, by looking at these photos, one can see that this is not your traditional, everyday Air Force 1 colorway. The previous photos show how it contains a primarily black leather base mixed with a translucent midsole and a black outsole; however, these photos show how it looks after the flash is applied to the silhouette. The flash shows this Nike Air Force 1 Supreme Max Air in a totally different light (literally). It then possesses a predominately silver base with the visible Air sole unit owning a blue shade.

Nike Zoom Kobe IV NFW Sample Posted: 03 Aug 2009 09:49 AM PDT Upon seeing the Nike Hypermax and the Nike Hyperdunk NFW (no flywire) a couple of months ago, many of you surprisingly preferred the no flywire design as opposed to the orginal flywire attribute. Now, we have spotted a Nike Zoom Kobe IV sample sans the flywire design. The majority of you labeled the Nike Zoom Kobe IV as the best basketball sneaker of the 2008-09 NBA season, however, if the final product released like this would it still be head shoulders above all the basketball shoes? In addition to the flywire design, some of the details that made this shoe positively unique are absent as well including the snakeskin print, patent leather sections and the Nike swoosh on the sole; the latter area mentioned contains the well-recognized Kobe logo instead. Another glaring difference is the stitching around the swoosh (side panels) which is very similar to the Zoom Kobe I. Whether or not you like them or not, Nike has no plans of releasing this sneaker as of now. However, what are your thoughts on how the sample looks?

Dwyane Wade Reveals his Air Jordan and Nike Collection Posted: 03 Aug 2009 08:35 AM PDT D.J. Augustin told us how well Jordan Brand takes care of its members; however, lately we have started to see for ourselves why most players would rather be with the unmatched sneaker brand. Two weeks ago, Chris Paul provided us with a photo of some unreleased all-white retro Air Jordan sneakers as he visited Nike’s campus. Now, Jordan Brand’s recent signee Dwyane Wade has shown us his latest Air Jordan collection (via his Twitter page) since his move from Converse to JB. As you can see (with a closer look here), Jordan Brand has blessed Dwyane Wade with some of the more recent releases such as the Air Jordan 5 “Toro Bravo” Pack, the Air Jordan 2009, the Jordan Element colorways and the Air Jordan Fusion 4 just to name a few. According to Wade himself, this is only half of the sneakers Jordan Brand supplied him with! Many of you said Chris Paul and Ray Allen owned the best Jordan PEs during our Kicks On Court column; however, will Dwyane Wade soon surpass both of them? | Read the rest of Dwyane Wade Reveals his Air Jordan and Nike Collection © George Kiel III for NiceKicks.com, 2009. | Permalink | 77 comments | Add to del.icio.us Post tags: Air Jordan |
