Air Jordan IX Powder Blue

Posted: 17 Sep 2009 08:49 PM PDT

Air Jordan IX Powder Blue
The Air Jordan IX was one of Michael Jordan’s inspirational sneakers since it has been a part of an advertising campaign that featured him during his successful career wearing his UNC jersey sitting on a basketball. Fortunately, the same sneaker will be released in 2010 which will come in White/Black/University Blue. Isn’t Mike’s days worth remembering? [NiceKicks]

Bape Woodland Camo Bapesta

Posted: 17 Sep 2009 12:58 PM PDT

Bape Woodland Camo BapestaAs we all know, Bape is known for applying loud and obnoxious color schemes to most of its silhouettes. However, it now seems Bape has traded in crazy colors and patent leather for a cleaner, sleeker look for the 2009 fall/winter season.

With that said, check out this Bape Woodland Camo Bapesta. Its color scheme is the nonetheless ideal for the upcoming season. It features a predominately brown leather base with minimal green accents in the form of the shoelaces and Bape logo on the side panel. In addition, the beige midsole is accompanied by the toe box, heel tab and inner lining of the same color. What are your thoughts on the subtle colorway of this Bapesta? Thanks to Daily Drop, we have spotted this pair, along with two more colorways on Bape’s online store.

Dunkxchange San Francisco

Posted: 17 Sep 2009 12:28 PM PDT

Dunkxchange San FranciscoThis Sunday, September 20th, Dunkxchange invades San Francisco, with all of its sneaker, clothes and music madness in tow.

Dro Pesci will play host again, and DJ Episode will be working the DJ table. The first 100 to enter will also be treated to laces and a tee from Fully Laced, so get there early. Admission is only $15, barely more than a movie, and the popcorn guy at the cineplex probably doesn’t have Yeezys to trade for, so head out to City Nights this Sunday if you’re in the Bay Area.

City Nights
715 Harrison St.
San Francisco, CA 94107

Reebok Pump AXT Plus Mid

Posted: 17 Sep 2009 11:28 AM PDT

Reebok Pump AXT Plus Mid

“The Pump” is still the first thing that comes to mind when you say “Reebok” to just about anyone, and the retros featuring this technology continue to roll in, including these Pump AXT Plus Mids, which just released at Size?

Not too long ago, you saw the AXT Side Pump Trainer, featuring a neon yellow and black color-up, and most of you liked it. Staying in the family, these mids use a far simpler coloring scheme, using very-1990s teal and red accents on a white leather base. And of course, the Pump bubble is on the tongue, just in case you need to tighten them on the fly.

Reebok may not be churning out too many new silhouettes, but the Pump is so classic it’s hard to justify scrapping it. How do you feel about these trainers? Are they something you could wear? Head to the comments section and fill us in.

New Balance 1400 IE “Reflective” Pack

Posted: 17 Sep 2009 09:58 AM PDT

New Balance 1400 IE "Reflective"

New Balance has been throwing some inspired design concepts at us lately, including the Concepts x NB Pack and the “Pony Hair” 575, so this dual pack of “Reflective” 1400s may look a little simple, but the details are what set this pack apart.

The pack’s namesake comes from the reflective material used in their construction, a concept all sneakerheads are familiar with. The nearly all-leather makeup of both the tan and grey pair makes for a weather-resistant design, which was a point of emphasis for New Balance on these. They decided to use only tough materials in the design process, meaning the uppers are entirely synthetic. There’s no doubt about it, this 1400 set is a purpose-built, no-need-stay-indoors kind of pack, so for those who wear every pair, they should make for a nice pickup, and are available now at hanon.

Click here for detailed pics of both pairs.
