Nike Sportswear Bespoke Mini-Series

Lately, we have came across multiple, exquisite Bespoke creations such as Brian A. Ruffin, the La MJC and the Sneakerness. After seeing these designs, many of you dreamed about making your way to 21 Mercer Street to design your own. However, the Bespoke program is much more than picking colors. Over the next couple of weeks, we will explore the ins and outs of the Bespoke program.

At 21 Mercer Street, the sole is usually where the design of a 1 of 1 begins. As seen to the right, the sole comes in a plethora of colorways such as red, green, pink, blue, brown, yellow and purple. That said, your 1 of 1 doesn’t always have to feature a white, black or gum bottom! Stay tuned for an in-depth look on the steps provided in the Bespoke program.

Nike Hypermax Tennis Ball

Earlier today, we showed you the new Hypermax Tennis Ball colorways, and those who commented expressed a lot of love for Nike Basketball’s next darling sneaker. Although they have yet to hit stateside, select overseas retailers such as RMK has had them in stock.

We say had because just as quick as they surfaced on RMK’s online shop, they are now out of stock! If this is any indicator on how well this sneaker is received, you might want to stay by the computer in hopes of getting your pair before they quickly sell out next time they’re restocked. No word yet on when this sneaker, along with the other colorways, will release stateside; however, click here to view detailed photos.
