Custom Kicks And Half Naked Chicks… From Casey Customs
(so what do you think about the custom kicks in the pic?)
These are some interesting custom kicks. The company was founded in 2007 out of Philly. You can visit the site HERE if you want to take a look at what they got. They got music on the site so watch yourself if you are at work.
As for the face… well, I bumped into this while playing around with a app maker website while looking up flash screens for the app… I searched sneakers and this is what I got.
The young lady’s site is HERE and be careful cause its NOT SAFE FOR WORK… lets just put it that way lol
Jezign Bubble Cloud… not as bad as I thought PART 2
(looks REAL good at night coming off a motorcycle)
I think its about time this sneaker got a freaking review… don’t you think? It came out last year and it was… well, it just seemed like a bad idea, but a few celebs signed on and they got some attention.
Now that I got them in my hands i have to say they are a pretty decent pair of kicks (but boy are they bulcky lol). Review piece coming right up on the main website Sneaker and Shoes (yes I have a master plan for all of this 2 website thing lol)
Jezign Bubble Cloud… not as bad as I thought
(its actually not that bad)
I thought this was really not going to work, but I bought a pair on what I would call a “SUPER SALE” price at 30 bucks. Anyway to make a long story (soon to be posted/featured on the main site) they did not disapoint and if I knew they would be this cool, I would have had no problem paying the original price.
pikachu – Custom Dunks by Daniel Reese
(yes I admit I watched the damn show for years lol)
Man, this guy does the FRESHEST sneakers (but that exchange rate is killing me right now lol). He did this a while back, but I just have to represent for all my Pikachu’s out there. you know who you are!
On Sale: iREGULAR cHIOCE – ASIAN
(now this isn’t that irregular… unlike THIS one)
Simple, kind, and smart with a edge. I like that in a woman! Currently on sale if you want it RIGHT HERE. Hey all I can do is point you there.
Timberland Moutian Athletics… watch out for the bear chasing you
(just wondering if anybody would cop these)
Was gonna post this a looooooong time ago but just plain forgot. Have to admit that SOME of the sneakers… or should I say trail shoes… look pretty nice. Lets face it, if you are running the train you are not thinking about “ohhh my new kicks just got mud and they got sliced by some rocks and a tree branch”
In case you are into this kinda stuff, or just want something more essential than visual, take a look at the timberland site (that many celebs seem to like and is a staple for rappers, even the ones who are off that lol)
Click HERE for the crazy site they made to introduce the sneakers/shoes. You may want to turn down your sound, because i didn’t and was rudely surprised by “don’t give up” and bear growls (the site is also is interactive and if you don’t move your mouse…. WATCH OUT lol
And YES they HAVE AN APP for that… why I don’t know.
Just what Nike needs… Running shoes harder on joints than a pair of high heels: study
(don’t run in these ladies… and I guess some guys lol)
So basically what they are saying is that running shoes are worst on your joints than high heels. Looking at the xray you would think that would not be the case.
I guess its time for those sneakers that look like feet, right?
Gonna have to look into this one and feature it on the site. Why? because I just bought 3 pair of running sneakers LMAO
Just say YES to No-Hypebeast.com
(look at what the hypebeast dragged in)
Found this while browsing the web. I actually put in the word “hypebeast” in yahoo search and there is was. First page too. Never seen the site before but I think I will go back there more often… especially if they put un sneaker news.
Visit the No-Hypebeast website by clicking HERE
Air Jordan Doernbecher VI… love the details
(love the details on this sneaker)
No reason for posting this, I just love the details. And yes if you must know its a size 18 sneaker and it is available right this second on NikeStore
Looks like NikeStore website got a little update…
(looking better NikeStore)
I won’t go into a big ole rant about it (maybe later… and will probably feature it on the main site too lol… FYI – usually keep the rants to the blog and as well as my KicksOnFire blog where i may get a little more… direct shall we say) but I have to say the little touch up on the site just may make it worth going to the site to shop.
I hardly ever shop on the NikeStore and mainly it is because the site is TOTALLY flash based and it just gets annoying after a while. Maybe, one day, they will use flash far less but for now I have to say that the small update in the user interface is very noteworthy.
Check it out for yourself by clicking HERE
PS
The name of the shoe in the pic is the Nike Bandon Men’s Golf Shoe… in case you were wondering.
Saturday the 16th, 2010 – NikeLIVE with Kobe Bryant
(well, well, well… Facebook live stream ‘huh Kobe?)
It comes on at 6pm my time (EST). AND its going to stream live on Facebook (click HERE for info). Now that’s an interesting development.
beGrown… beSexy MEN: Nike Air Force 1 High Hiker
(feel like I can really go hiking in these)
You know those SUV’s that really aren’t meant to go off road at all? Well, maybe you could take these hiking and they may ctually do the job… but why in the hell would you take a Buick Enclave or Range Rover into the woods? (your probably wondering how I can say Buick Enclave and Range Rover in the same sentence… lol well, I really like the Enclave)
Make no mistake about it folks, this sneaker is for looking the look without doing the do. And the best part of it all is that you will definaitly look grown and sexy while wearing them. Ladies… geltemen… this sneaker is for you.
More info if you click HERE on HypeBeast.com
Diggin’ In The Sneaker Crates: Air Jordan Spizike “Kings County”
(ahhh yes the Kings County Spizike… do YOU have this?)
Lets face it, the colorway for this particular Spiz’ike is off the spizzy (and not nesicarily in a good way). It can work for those with the gift to put together outfits and such, but at the end of the day the colorway was a so-so look.
Pics via Nicekicks.com
But then you put Brooklyn aka Kings County on it and now you cooking with non-dehydrogenated oil… yes I sad it.
I forget just why these were so controversial when the first pictures came on the scene, but if you wanted a sneaker that matches a card in the deck, you were happy to get these. I think these are collectibles MOSTLY because they represent Spike, Jordan and Brooklyn (home of Do The Right Thing and if I am not mistaken home of Spike Lee AND Micheal Jordan… but hey I could be wrong)
Just digging in those sneaker crates… April 2007 on Sneakers and Shoes
An Irregular Choice – Magic Sparkle Torch

Diggin In The Sneaker Crates (shoe edition): The FitFlop Aurelia Gladiator Sandal
(The FitFlop Aurelia Gladiator Sandal looks pretty good)
An interesting (to say the least) sandal for the adventurous lady looking for a new look. First seen on the Life Files on August of 2008 (so you may just as well assume that the sandal is sold out by now… in case you wanted it)
Just digging in those sneaker crates… August 25 2009
November ???th, 2009…. The Saga Continues!!!
REMEMBER THIS DATE YALL!!!
NOVEMBER 4TH 11th ???TH 2009
(its looking like it will be the 30th… just putting the final touches on the site now…)
(don’t be surprised if you see something different here in the next week)
sneakersandshoes.wordpress.com is now blog.sneakersandshoes.com
new main magazine page on sneakersandshoes.com
Maybe you guys have noticed its been a while since i last posted. Well, I have been trying to get things together behind the scenes to make the blog and website more helpful for those who want to know what is going on in the world of sneaker and shoe culture. I also wanted a way for people to see and research (if they want) any pair of sneakers or shoes from the past or any news stories that had happened over the course of the year.
Setting that up is a lot harder than I thought. Its one thing to set someone else’s sit up, but setting up your own is TOTALLY different.
You can see the VERY raw site from tme to time while I am putting things in place. 2 things I would like to highlight is the Gallery and the On Sale section.
With the Gallery its all about what the whole community is doing picture wise. it can be drawn images, people wearing their sneakers or whatever. its mostly focused on Flickr but can be anything. Wallpapers will also be apart of the Gallery as well as some other surprises.
As for the On sale section, I have added a map that will include location of as many stores and boutique sneaker, shoe and fashion shops that i can find. Mostly it will be centered in NYC but will eventually span out across the USA
I hope you guys hang in there. It will be worth the wait.
Some of the things you will see after November 11th:
- New design for main site and blog
- A better way to interact with people on the blog
- Maps… what does that mean? You’ll find out
- Special blog posts on specific days – Friday Fashion Review for example
- Little tweaks in some categories and tags
- And more.
All the improvements will happen during the month, but the main one… change in url… has already happened (in case you guys haven’t noticed… should have warned yall, my bad). The design theme (still working on that one) may be delayed a little bit but I hope to have that totally straitened out before November 11th.
Posting for this blog has been fun and I look forward to doing more cool stuff in the future. See yall next week! Remember, Nov 11th ???th!!!! Mark it down somewhere.

How to walk during in high heels – Fashion Week
[-so how do you walk in those heels ladies?-]
Russian model Anastassia Khokissova runs an online high-heel ‘boot camp’ for fellow models to help them look elegant when walking down fashion week catwalks.
Here is a video (amongst many) on how to walk in those high heels. I have seen some women walk in heels and wondered why wear them and end up walking like something is wrong with your legs? And ladies, they do the how to walk down the stairs bit too.
You may want to also check out High Heel boot camp where things get… interesting…
Diggin In The Sneaker Crates: Kim Kardashian Tosses Sneakers
[Kim Kardashian throwing sneakers and shoes... girl give me a call lol]
Many moons ago (back in January) Kim did a solid by tossing out sneakers to the crowd. A shoe showing contest… sounds like a good idea to me.
Just diggin in thos sneaker crates… January 2009
An Interesting Nike Sportwear Entry Page
[Yeezy gets featured on Nike sportwear Page]
If you head to the Nike Sportwear site for the first time, you ened up on this landing page. The landing page lets you choose your language and it also gives you a look at Nike’s future…. something that SneakerFreaker talks a little bit about (just a little bit lol)
Anyway, just thought I would let yall know. I personally think this has some meaning behind it. They choose this sneaker above thers for a reason. Makes me wonder whats next on Nike’s agenda for 2010+
