2009′s Style Resolutions: A Pick Of What’s Hot and Not
(boots with shorts anyone?)
Its mostly about footwear with some other junk added in that I don’t care about. Its an old post, but its worth looking at if you want, cause you might fine something that can be worth adding to your collection.
(oh 2008 was a good year for the shoes wasn’t it?)
Colorways That Could Save A Sneaker Line: XV SE by BP
(now if only Brand Jordan made these colorways)
Now if Jordan came out with colorways like this, then maybe the sneaker would have been all over NYC instead of just in a few places and eventually on the Super Sales rack at almost half off with sizes 7 – 13 left in mens. These colorways was designed by BP from the site NikeTalk
S&S Sunday Sports Wrap Up: Vick’s House Sold, High profile Players and the Economy
Oh no he didn’t just bounce the ball between my legs!
Vicks house (with an elevator that goes up 3 floors) is beautiful and is going for 3 Million. Bu with the economy being what it is, will someone really buy it for that much even if you have money? I mean if you have money, why not just put that stuff IN YOUR OWN HOUSE? lol Won’t that be more cost effective and raise the value of your own house in a neighborhood you know? Hey, just my opinion.
Tiger Woods and other high profile player may be getting a little hurt with the economy being what it is, but the guys really getting hurt are the second teir players and the bench. Loosing most or all of their deals and the possibility of getting paid less in salary as people stop going to games and start doing stuff that is cheaper… like going to the movies for 10+ a person.

Checking Out More Of BP Photoshop Showcase
(as seen on NikeTalk called Sponcers)
This stuff is really nice. I think I am going to keep coming back to see what gets added by him and other NikeTalk members. I personally think Nike needs to hire him as a colorway consultant (does that position even exist… if it don’t, it should) or something cause I have already seen colorways that would have literally SAVED sneaker lines on this forum thread.
By the way, can you spot the colorway reflection of these sneakers? The Windows LeBron I the more obvious one especially with the windows logo on the side, but what of the others?
PS
That pink one looks pretty cool. Lebron, if your see this blog (lol why would he be visiting my lowly blog???) if you make this colorway I will buy it and wear them with a pink hat and leather jacket… and no I am not a girl and no I don’t like wearing pink lol
What If? Half Cent Penny in Black and Green
-VS-
(as seen on The Shoe Game as well as other sneaker blogs)
woweeeee wow… BP (owner of NikeTalk) is just straight housin’ Nike at its colorways. You can’t tell me that this is an instant classic if Nike were to use this colorway instead of the one pictures at many sneaker blogs over the past week… Because of this, I have put the 1/2 Cent under the Save-A-Sneaker program. Its aruable that the 1/2 Cent Penny don’t need any help, but in this economy Nike could do better with the colorways.
(another colorway Nike should consider… and it should look EXACTLY like this)
If you think the Foamposite Eggplants started a purple revolotion in NYC, these electric green will start the next one. I would pay 200+ for these easy. REAL EASY.
On Sale: Marc by Marc Jacobs Copper Patent Wedge
Seen this on ShoeSheBang.com and can be bought here.
Desktop Customization: Lets Get The Ball Rolling
(wowee a Knicks desktop for those Knicks fans)
Wallpapers are cool and all, I will be making some myself soon, but why stop there? What about an XP logon of your favorite sneaker? How about a Kryptonate jumping over Superman for a Logon screen? What about an animated wallpaper showing video of MJ and his Last Shot? Why not a bouncing basket ball for a cursor?
Oh man… we on some next level @#$% now lol

A Half Cent Remix: A Design by BP, Owner of NikeTalk
This sneaker design has hit the internet blogs hard. Its everywhere and for good reason. If Nike could pick this look up for the next Penny Hybrid, thy would do justice to the whole idea of hybrids (that some knock… and for good reason).
Is this a Penny Nike will release? No, it is a design made by the owner of NT.
(wow)
Wow… if Nike even just comes out with these colorways for the 1/2 Cent releaseing this weekend, that would make these sneaker the most wanted sneaker for 2009. All of this was first seen on the Shoe Game so check them out too. For more custom designs and colorway remixes, visit here on NT.

Nike ACG + Mowabb = I Want These So Bad
(as seen on Kicks on Fire.com)
I was supposed to slow down in my sneaker purchases this year, but how do I do this with the 1/2 Cents coming out, the possibility of a tribute AJ12 “Flu”, and the possible release of the Space Jam AJ11. Plus there are so many other brands of sneakers brings some sort of heat this year, how do I stay away from them?
And now this? My wallet can’t take much more of this. The retro movement continues…
Brand Jordan… When Will You Bring Back The Bordeaux Air Jordan7?
After seeing the video of what SneakGeekZ got as his latest pickup makes me think about how MJ has not released the big one. I am new to the sneaker game so I don’t know how the Holy Grail AJ 6′s became the Holy Grail (I still swear that back in the day in NYC no one wanted this sneaker and it was the only AJ6 with sizes 8-13 still left and I actually bought them at Kings Plaza for 89.99), but to me, these Air Jordan 7′s Bordeaux is the one and only biggest Holy Grail sneaker ever (well to me at least). These was like the top of the top of hype machine sneakers and they bring back so many memories its not even funny.
So MJ, when you releasing it? And please, please let it be a general release so we all can get it and not just those guys who only intend to resell them for 400 dollars later. I promise to buy 2 pair!!! Recession be damned!
Oh No They Didn’t: Zappos Cease & Desist Shopping
The lady (or gentlemen) in your life buying too much footwear? 1000′s of dollars a month? Then maybe you need this.
So what do you think? I know I spent at least 2000 last year, so maybe I don’t fit the criteria. First seen on Shoeblog.com
Which Penny Half Cent To Get? Royal vs Dark Knight
(a Clash of the Kicks battle being held at Kicks On Fire)
Kicks On Fire did a Clash of the Kicks a while ago putting 2 versions of the same sneaker against each other. Now me, I really was gonna get the royal due to its true reflection of all 4 sneakers but with my current budget concerns *ahem* I may have to put the purchase of them off. Not to worry because I am sure that there will be many a person who will buy extras and then sell them later for 700+ dollars. So I will be able to get them, just not for 190. (more…)
Saw A White and Pink Hyperdunk Yesterday
(a NIKEiD creation: Pink Diamonds)
So I saw this hyperdunk (twice actually… should have go a picture and talked to the kid) and I think they are NIKEiD sneaker cause I aint never saw this colorway before… could be fakes too, but they really looked like the real thing, and I doubt this guy… yes a guy… would get these just for them to be fake and white and pink on top of that.
So I went to NIKEiD to see if I could make them but the colorways avaiable were a little off. Anyway here are the results including wallpapers of what I call Pink Diamond.
The site says they won’t be avaiable until later in the month so I don’t know how he got them… oh well. If you want you can make the Pink Diamond colorway pretty easily on NIKEiD so give it a shot. You should sign in so you can save it.. It just makes things easier. So far I have 7 colorways made for different sneakers Plan on do some other colorways of some of the sneakers for iD later on. I’ll share when I make them.
You can get some Hyperdunks (in normal colors) at Eastbay.

Air Jordan 22 Commercial A Little More Than A Year Ago
Yeah, those 22′s were pretty lame looking and the colorways didn’t help much…
(part of the Alpha Omega Pack… the whacker part)
But that commercial goes there and is pretty good.
Thank You Sole Collector!!! Air Jordan VI Motorsports
(from Sole Collector via The Shoe Game)
A few sneaker blogs I visit almost freakin daily picked up on this one. The motosports team of Jordan is in its 6th year and for the year the Air Jordan 6 special edition will be given to the team members… and I am sure somehow they will end up on eBay.
For more info, visit SoleCollector. Look at the commenters on The Shoe Game go wild about the sneaker (for the most part). Me? I would definaitly get these and I am not too into black and white sneakers.
EDIT Just seen on Sneakernews.com

And of course the normal sneaker drama, NBA drama, NFL drama… and maybe some scores, records and other boring details. And of course there will be an accounting of whether any related athletes and the sneakers or shoes they represent were injured during the week.
