Nice Kicks Staff Picks

What a week in sneakers! Jordan Brand had arguably the best seven days any brand has ever had, thanks to an intentional reveal of the Air Jordan 2011 and an unintentional confirmation of upcoming bring backs. It was all too easy to make our Staff Picks this time around, as there was more than enough to choose from. Which sneaks did you like best? Head to the comments section and let us know.

Nike WMNS LunarGlide+ 2 Dark Grey/Spark

Posted: 29 Jan 2011 12:13 PM PST

Nike WMNS LunarGlide+ 2 Dark Grey/Spark

As one the Nike’s fastest-selling shoes ever the LunarGlide+ 2 is perched atop the Lunarlon hierarchy. With its Flywire and mesh upper and the beloved cushioned sole, it’s no wonder so many have taken a liking to it. The latest WMNS drop features a Dark Grey and black upper and a ribbed midsole. Spark is the chosen accent hue, appearing only on the midsole and tongue label. The underside of the Volt footbed peeks out the bottom; a nice detail for passers by. Girls can grab these $100 runners at Nice Kicks or via Shop.NiceKicks.com.

Packer Shoes x Reebok Court Victory Pump “Australia” Now Available

Posted: 29 Jan 2011 11:32 AM PST

Packer Shoes x Reebok Court Victory Pump Australia

Continuing to tell the stories of world class athletes and celebrating their accomplishments in their shoes, Packer Shoes of Teaneck, New Jersey pays tribute to another New Jersey native – Michael Chang.  Michael Chang was the face of Reebok tennis in the late 80′s and early 90′s snatching his first Grand Slam title at a record youngest age of 17 years and 3 months old.

Packer Shoes is taking us through a tour of Michael Chang’s career through a four part series of the Reebok Court Victory Pump inspired by each of the four Grand Slams.  The first stop on the tour is inspired by the Australian Open.  The shoe sports a nod to the Aussie flag and represents another national icon, the kangaroo, with hidden stash pouches at the top of the tongues.

While Michael Chang was never able to complete a career Grand Slam taking home titles from each Major, you can work you way towards perfection by grabbing these now at Packer Shoes at their online pop-up shop.

In Retrospect: Air Jordan 6/11 Defining Moments Pack

Posted: 28 Jan 2011 05:28 PM PST

In Retrospect: Air Jordan 6/11 Defining Moments Pack

Five years ago today Jordan Brand released their first and arguably best package. The Air Jordan 6/11 Defining Moments Package combined two of the most iconic Air Jordans in a prestigious manner. The Air Jordan 11 “Concord” was classed up with gold accents on the branding while the Air Jordan 6 was dressed in black nubuck with gold highlights. Servers crashed and lines were long as many capitalized on the chance to get two one-of-a-kind Jordans while many more left empty handed. Now that five years have passed and the Air Jordan 11 “Concord” is on its way back, what are your thoughts on the original DMP? Were you able to get them? Are you happy with your decision to purchase or pass? Tell your DMP stories in the comment section.
