LIVESTRONG x Nike Sweet Classic High Sample

The Sweet Classic may not be a favorite among our readers, but LIVESTRONG gear can generally do no wrong. From the Mr. Cartoon Air Force 1s too general release runners, the charitable yellow look sells shoes by the crate.

This shoe never made it to retail in this form, but a pair recently surfaced on eBay for a very fair price given its rare nature. White canvas is used on the upper, which boasts a screen printed Swoosh. Yellow accents are used throughout, including the LIVESTRONG tag along the midfoot. Head over to eBay to bid on these now.

Video: Ken Griffey Jr. “Goodbye Baseball”

Posted: 14 Jul 2010 11:43 AM PDT

Last year, Michael Jordan entered the Hall of Fame, sending Jordan Brand on a tribute free-for-all. Will Ken Griffey, Jr.’s retirement and subsequent initiation into the Hall of Fame result in the same madness? Only time will tell, but Nike kicked things off this week with this special commercial for the one known simply as “The Kid,” who needs to wait only a handful of years before he can say “Hello, Cooperstown.”

Alexander McQueen x PUMA

Fashion icon Alexander McQueen’s work with PUMA continues to surface months after his death as we now have a preview photo of the Alexander McQueen x PUMA Premium Lineup for the spring/summer of 2011. Sadly, this will be the final collection between the two sides. It features vivid and vibrant color schemes on both low-top and high-top sneakers all while keeping a subtle appeal in leather constructions. Also, some of the sneakers contain imagery from "Book of Five Rings" and "Tiger vs. Crane" campaigns.

nabiss x PUMA Basket

Posted: 14 Jul 2010 10:58 AM PDT

nabiis x PUMA Basket

Fixed gear bike collective nabiis teamed up with PUMA for a special edition of the classic Basket silhouette.  The nabiis x PUMA Basket was a special project where nabiis channeled their Taipei biking roots making the logo glow in the dark as well as the outsole piping.  The shoe features a mostly white upper with black lining and trim around the lacing.  The nabiis name in a metallic font was added on for the custom touch.  Unfortunately for fans of this collab the shoe was produced in a limited run as a gift for friends and family of the the nabiis team and will not be released.
