On Flickr: adidas Chocolate by dailycandies
Dailycandies has designed this sneaker (for school I guess) and after a week of work this is what the conclusion is. It looks rather nice and I actually wish it was real. In fact, I thought it was until I saw what it said on the Flickr site.
Anyway take a close look at the sneaker design. For example he used the adidas symbol as the heart symbol for “I love chocolate” on the box. and the wrapping idea… so excellent! I think Dailycandies should hook up with one of those custom sneaker artists and make some really cool looking sneakers.
The only thing I wonder is if there will be any texture to the materials used. Other than that, this is a great look.
I said it before and I’ll say it again, if you don’t have a Flickr account, you need to get one. How can you join groups like Sneaker Pimps and Sneaker Collector? U Need Dis!!! lol
Are These Fakes? All Sorts Of Colorways For The AJ Fusion V’s
As far as I know, there are only a few official colors for the Fusiion V and these shots above are not one of them. And I really don’t think brand new Jordan Fusions V’s would cost 59.99 (hey, what happened to the well over used 79.99? lol) but nevertheless the question is Are These Fakes?
I actually don’t know if Jordan will come out with this colorway for the ladies and for grade school… but selling these Fusions for 54.99 makes me think this 150 dollar shoe is actually fake. I am not good at picking out fakes. I look for simple things like tags, numbers and quality. But I guess even that can be faked too but most fakers don’t even bother to do that stuff.
So anyway the question is Are These Fakes? (as if you don’t already know).
realMad Hectic The Pile on High Snob
I just love me some High Snobriety!!! realMad Hectic has created this plush looking sneaker that would probably not go with anything in your closet unless you are a celebrity or are very into summer clothes and light cotton wear. Even then, do you have something in a light blue? lol
Nevertheless, I still think this is a cool looking sneaker. High Snob says they are based off of an adidas model but to be honest, I can’t tell at all. Not that I have been in the shoe game for that long, but I’m just saying.
Anyway, if you don’t like the colorway above, there are others so go check that out. I like the yellow one myself.
OMG: Air Jordan Countdown Pack 6 + 17 = Carmines Takin’ Over
SneakerNews Just Posted This On There Blog! Go See It NOW
Release Date: 05/24/08
The AJ Countdown Pack next to be released this month has the holy grail Air Jordan Carmines as part of the pack. Many sneaker head want this sneaker. Some of you may have never seen them before because the last time they came out, you were not born yet lol The original Carmine was released in 1991 so being that its 2007 that makes 16 years. That is a real long time, no?
I remember buying these when it originally came out and taking it back to Kings Plaza (the same day no less) because it just didn’t match anything I had. The sneaker were on sale and from what I remember, in NYC they were not as popular as they are now. I liked them because they just seemed out there and different. I didn’t know at the time that Jordan played in them during the playoffs.
Sneakernews.com has all the shots you will need of oth sneakers included in the pack. Here is another shot:
I’ll admit that I didn’t like the 17 black suede but these pictures make them look way better. They actually look cool and not too flashy. Its not a smooth look, but it is very close to smooth.
I don’t know if I will get them cause my sneaker budget just can’t handle getting expended… again. I know I’ll pay for it later when I DO get them and they cost 1000 Dollars (but what’s money anyway?)
I have to say one thing… The Carmines have the word AIR in the back, so tell me why so far in all the pictures we have seen of the AJ Countdown Pack 4 + 18 (more specifically the AJ 4 of course) why the AJ 4 does NOT at least have the work AIR on the back of the sneaker? Well, the AJ 4′s have other problems then that I guess so maybe not having AIR underneath the Jumpman logo isn’t the worst thing but it sure looks odd.
In Sneaker News: Business Week Writes An Article On Sneaker Culture
Business Week has written an article on what it means to be a sneakerhead. Long lines, people accusing you of wearing fakes, lots of money spent and so forth. At least people who are well into being sneaker head (unlike myself, I’m a beginner lol), at least they know that according to another article written here that they are leaders as well.
Tell them I sent ya.
Just In Case You Didn’t Know: Everybody Mid “RAP” Available
If you haven’t been browsing the Fab Four sneaker sites (ok, I see I have to write a post on this) then you may not know about this. I first seen this on Nicekicks.com (but also shows up on other sneaker blogs). The Alife Everybody Mid (that I love very much) is now released. This is a colobo between Rockwell, Alife, and Patta and includes a t-shirt. You can get it now at AlifeNYC.com
I sometimes wonder if I started a small clothing line like Alife (if you can call them small… they seem to be more mid-sized) if people would like what I would want to put out there. I’m trying to put something together that I think is cool… but that is the problem; I think its cool. What if no one else does? lol
Well, anyway I like this sneaker allot. And I am so trying to fit this in my sneaker budget. Don’t know if i can get this pair, but i am getting the Everybody Mid eventually, I just don’t know when lol
Ooooooo SNAP!!! Rasheed Wallace “1World” Air Force 1′s
This is a great looking sneaker. Not that it looks any different than the other Air Force Ones EXCEPT for that Rasheed silhouette on the side of the sneaker. That right there for me does it for the sneaker. I’m not usually into bold statements like that but this looks simple, cool and BIG.
More info on Nicekicks.com where I originally seen these bad boys.
EDIT:
NOW IN A NEW COLOR!!!
As seen on: Nike Air Force 1 High Supreme Rasheed Wallace – Black / Varsity
