Air Jordan 1 Phat Low Premium Atlanta Hawks Gets Warm Reception

Air Jordan 1 Phat Low Premium Atlanta Hawks

This is already an attractive sneaker as it is, and even sans its correlation to the Atlanta Hawks. An adaptation of the Air Jordan 1 Retro Phat Hi, the Air Jordan 1 Phat Low Premium Atlanta Hawks sneaker is a low cut version with the same looks as the original.
The Air Jordan 1 Phat Low Premium Atlanta Hawks sneaker makes it clear that it is a Jordan sneaker, not merely due to the yellow Jumpman logo on the red tongue tag, but also because of the yellow number “23” on the lace loop.
The sneaker is made of black full grain leather upper, made more attractive by the yellow contrast stitching all over. Add the red chenille Nike swoosh and any sneaker lover is guaranteed to be smitten by this number.
Your comfort is guaranteed by the perforated black toe box. The Air Jordan 1 Phat Low Premium Atlanta Hawks sneaker comes with red shoe laces to match the red outsole. All this color is balanced out by the white midsole which keep the sneaker looking clean all the way.

Nike Terminator High Noise x Fragment

Nike Terminator High Noise x Fragment

Make some loud noise not merely with your voice but also with your feet. You can stomp and do those noisy feet gestures or anything at all. But if you want to take it cool and still make noise then the Nike Terminator High Noise x Fragment sneaker is a good choice.
The Nike Terminator High Noise x Fragment sneaker is bound for Japan on December 12th but we are not sure if the sneaker will be able to make it outside the shores of Japan. The sneaker does not really have a noisy design nor colorway. On the contrary, the sneaker is a high top sneaker that comes in a plain black upper. There is however another pair that comes in a white upper.
Both the black and white Nike Terminator High Noise x Fragment sneakers are accented by silver. While most Nike sneakers show the branding on the heel, this one shows the word “NOISE” in silver right on the heel panel, and outlined by white. Just above that is a perforated metal-like silver on the ankle part.
The Nike Terminator High Noise x Fragment sneakers come with matching black and metallic silver shirts, also with the word “NOISE” as its main design in front.

The : Nike Hypermax Emeka Okafor PEs sneaker which is proof of the improving performance of Emeka Okafor in the courts, with a little help of course from his running mate Chris Paul.
Another Okafor running mate is the Nike Hyperize which he has been wearing since the start of the 2009-2010 season. He is lucky to have not one, but two of these: Nike Hypermax Emeka Okafor PEs for home game and away games.
The Nike Hypermax Emeka Okafor PEs “Away” pair comes in a black leather upper accented by a turquoise flywire on the side panels with matching Nike swoosh and shoe laces. The use of purple on the inner lining and n the tongue is somehow shocking to the senses, but a good one at that.
The “Home” pair comes in a white leather upper accented by turquoise threading on the white flywire. The sneaker is accented by purple Nike swoosh and matching mesh purple tongue. The shoe laces however remain loyal to the turquoise color.
Both the : Nike Hypermax Emeka Okafor PEs “Home” and “Away” pairs have almost the same soles except that the “Away” has a black heel while the “Home” sneaker has a purple heel.

Nike Air Trainer’s Auburn

Early 2009, there had been a lot of scanned images from shoe catalogs showing a model of Nike Air Trainer SC which they called as th Auburn. But it was only recently that a clear photo of the Trainer SC Auburn was released online.
The color scheme is more like that of the great American Flag. Though there are no stars, the color way is composed of white, red, and blue shades just like  the star and the stripes. The Nike swoosh was in a different color as well as the mid-sole, which is gray. I wonder if it is really inspired by the flag or by the football team called Auburn? Well it is likely that it is the latter since it was coined as the Trainer SC Auburn, right?
Pay attention to the heel. It has the ruler-like lines which others consider as the timeline. I understand the 2010 since this is the year that the Auburn will be released. But what is up with the 1990? Can you tell me Nike or Auburn fans?

Black dominates the Nike Air Jordan 9

Some time in 2010, there will be tons of footwear from the Air Jordan VI collection. But what the previews that they gave us so far is not yet done. There are still more shoes to drool including the Nike Air Jordan IX.
Black, beautiful. The perfect words to describe the black, white, and orange shoe that is part of the Nike Air Jordan IX. This is just one of the color ways of the said collection.
Topping the kick is the infamous 3M material which gave the shoe that bulky look. So never pair this one with skinny jeans unless you want to beat Ronald McDonald. But it looks perfect though how the glossy mid-sole compliments the upper part of the shoe and the outsole. You know how B&W always look great together.
However, this shoe would look dull if it is just all black and couple of inches of white. The Nike Air logo was placed at the outsole and in color orange and so does the number 23 at the heel.
Expect the release of the Nike Air Jordan 9 by mid 2010.

Nike Dunk High Premium West x Eddie Cruz

The East and the West pack of Nike is not over yet. The sneaker-genius Eddie Cruz who also created the other state team inspired has just released yet another astounding sneaker which represents the state of Los Angeles. The color way is actually inspired by the USC and just like the shoes that were made for the Dodgers.
It may seem like snake skin from afar, but of course, it isn’t. Different red of shades flourished all over the kick and some parts were actually inspired by the fish scales. The strong red-turning-maroon shade that is placed at the base of the shoe is also the same color used for the soles of the Dunk High.
Still there are no words yet about the specific month or season this shoe will be released. But probably it will be sooner than you thought. Something so nice as this shouldn’t be on the dark for a long time.

Nike Zoom Skyposite in Kryptonate

Is it kryptonate or kryptonite? But what the heck! This shoe still isn’t fit for the Man of Steel. Last February, a Kryptonate edition was released as part of the Foamposite Lite. And now, Nike will release another Kryptonate footwear to be a part of the Nike Skyposite.
Too bad Clark Kent can never get his hands on this one. But Green Lantern could definitely make use of the shoe since it suits well with his, well, green costume. Because of the fading luminous green shade, the Nike Zoom Skyposite Kryptonite gives an illusion that it is indeed a glowing shoe that came out from the meteor that just hit the Earth. From yellow to green, the effect is just astounding.
But don’t think that it is the only thing that this anti-Superman shoe has to offer. Check out the soles baby! Outlined by luminous green, the middle of each shoe is different. The right foot gets the big Nike swoosh while the other gets the classic Nike text.
