PEAK Shane Battier V “Dracula” Posted: 22 Oct 2010 12:58 PM PDT  PEAK attempts to get us in the Halloween spirit with a new PEAK Shane Battier V “Dracula” themed sneaker. This pair features a red and black colorway with a variety of details. The first detail is the use of a blood splatter effect on the entire edge of the shoe. A second detail comes in the form of the Count Dracula image on the heel. Finally, uses a reflective flower design around the ankle. The combination of these three details give this pair a great themed look for Halloween. There is no word on if these will actually release in the future. © Albert Lin for NiceKicks.com, 2010. | Permalink | One comment | Add to del.icio.us Post tags: Peak, PEAK Shane Battier V |
