Get Your Own Custom Skin Footwear… now with VIDEO

And the footwear game just got a little deeper. here you buy the “bone” of the shoe and keep it indefinatly and when you want a new look, just change the skin.

I’m guessing you get the right “bone” that fits your foot and then get any type of skin, from shoes to sneakers to ballet footwear.

This site called Israel 21C has all the details you will need about the sneaker shoe footwear and the company that makes them (Skin Footwear Inc).


Want A Pair Of Tennis Shoes? Nike Air Max Breathe Cage II Men’s Tennis Shoe

To me, it really looks like something from the Olympics. Its that whole Bird Cage thing I guess. Anyway, here is the scoop on these exclusive sneaker that you can only get at Nike.com or at the US Open in NYC:

Nike is releasing extremely limited-edition footwear to celebrate the Flushing Meadows appearance of Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer, the top two players in tennis today. These shoes are expected to sell out fast and are only available at Nikestore.com and the Nike tent at the event site.

The limited edition Nike Air Max Breathe Cage II Men’s Tennis Shoe featuring Rafael Nadal’s iconic logo and special color detailing, offers the latest in Nike’s performance technology for the elite-level player. Designed for power and intense play, this shoe delivers superior breathability, durability and support.

I like them. My money is currently tied up in “The Year of Jordan” and other releases such as the Eggplant Foamposite, those hybrid Footlocker exclusive Air Max Plus Tn x Air Max 360 and those Skytops and those Creative Recreations and not to mention the grown and sexy shoe I need to go with my casual wear and suits… (ok that is a lot of footwear purchasing lol) so I don’t think I will be getting them, but i do believe they are collectibles and would be great on the court.

I should start to play tennis.

They will cost you $200 bucks.


Kelly Rowland In Nike Commercial For Human Race

I love me some Kelly Rowland. I am sure if we were to meet, that she would fall in love with me… in fact all the DC women would fall for my incredible charm and poise.

So anyway, here is Kelly doing her thing for the Human Race, something Nike thought up to promote health and well being… and to push its Nike Plus product of which I actually would like to try. I’m not sure if there is a fit here, but I was too busy watching Kelly to notice. First seen on the.LIFE Files

PS

You won’t see this commercial in the US. it would seem to be a Europe exclusive lol
