Jezign Bubble Cloud… should people have given them a real shot?
(you know these are actually pretty nice
Review coming soon for these kicks. I will admit I didn’t wear them as much as I should have in order to really give them a full review, but I will be doing so shortly.
I have to admit though that these kicks are not made for comfort as much as made for coolness points and being fashion forward. I still want to give them a little more wear and tear before I give my final say, but so far I have to say that they are some pretty cool kicks.
Wouldn’t go for long walks with them though…
Hey, don’t forget about Nicholas Kirkwood
(if you buy 10 of these kicks, you can get a small car)
Now that’s a nice lead in for the shoe that will most certainly knock onlookers on their feet. Its still on sale (maybe because the price is high enough to buy a laptop?) and if you want your look to go upscale and unique (cause how many people are gonna buy a 1000+ shoe?), maybe you want to take a look.
Nine West Sydney
(hey sexy lady…)
Looks good without having to spend 500-1000+ dollars. Nine West got you covered. For $100 bucks you can have something for the beGrown_beSexy crowd without emptying your wallet to do it. You look nice and such and such (insert positive comment).
So you gonna get them? Head over to Nine West RIGHT HERE and take a look.
Air Jordan 5 TORO BRAVO in reflective
(reflectively amazing)
In my blurry pic that I hope comes out better when I take the shot later, you see the all glorous Toro Bravo. One of the more popular packs released way back when incuded the pair you see above as well as a mostly red brushed leather AJ5
It was a very unique pack to say the least. Count on a diggin in the sneaker crate review of them coming soon. More shots on the way also.
One thin I must say is that I am very impressed that years later the clear soles still are clear and have very little yellowing. Not sure how that came to be considering other kicks that never left the box are as yellow as hell… starting to think the box and the paper it came with may be the reason for this, but who knows.
Anybody else still have their Toro’s? How is your kicks doing?
Air Jordan 22 Omega Wallpaper…
(nice and yellow)
If I had to say one good thing about the Air Jordan 22… ok ok, other than the sneakers comfort level (very high) and the ability to swap out cushioning pads (really nice)
So let me restate that – one of the best parts of the Air Jordan 22 was the sole. it looks so nice and it seemed like allot of thought went into it. The best part is that not only does it look good, but it is very fuctional too.
So I thought to myself, it would make for a great wallpaper.
More to come, just thought I would give a taste
Air Jordan 23 in Black and Red… carbon jordan
(can you imagine if that was ACTUALLY carbon?)
I know I keep saying that I want to create this theme that matches some of my kicks, but I can’t help myself. This picture totally inspired me to make a matching cursor (using CursorFX from Stardock) and maybe do a couple more shots to make some wallpapers.
Anyway, just figured I post a shot. Think it would make a really nice wallpaper.
Nike RT1 High… still some left
(why were people hating on this sneaker?)

I think there was a reason why Jay-Z was caught a few times wearing these kicks and that is because they are some good looking sneakers.
The reviews on this sneaker are pretty plentiful and most state how the sneaker is comfortable. It may be a sneaker you wish to check out, even if it came out a while ago. For more info click RIGHT HERE.
Diggin In The Sneaker Crates: Pony + PPG = Cars on Kicks????
(did anybody get these???)
As I go digging in those crates, posts from the past many years from as many sneaker and shoe sites possible (including my own), I find these gems. I remeber when i first saw it and I thought to myself that this is a great idea but I wasn’t sure how people would recieve it though. I am not sure if it sold out or not, but I do remeber it taking a while to get off the shelves in NYC (not to mention that it was still avaiavle online in most places).

Personally I wanted to get a pair. I liked the idea, the look of the “paint” and the style as a whole. Holding it in my hands the sneaker looked REAL crisp.
I haven’t seen it applied to any other sneaker since, unless I somehow missed it. I was hoping that they try it out again for other designs, special editions and so forth but sadly it hasn’t happened.
If you collect kicks as something of a history of what was going on in the industry as wellas in culutre, lets hope you have these because it most certainly was an interesting look.
Just diggin in the sneaker crates… April 2008 on Sneakers and Shoes
The Slipper – FlipFlop Movement Continues… Jordan Camp Slide
(because flip flops are the wave of the future)
I have pretty much given up on trying to criticize the flip flop out of exestance and I have actually stopped laughing at people who wear them with socks on.
This slideshow requires JavaScript.
I Give Up
Apparently flop-flops are here to stay and to be worn on the subway, on the way to school, and so forth. It just not for the pool or the beach anymore. People are wearing them as if they are sneakers or shoes.
Just keep in mind that flip flops and slippers are shown to hurt your feet after constant wear, so be careful with the daily use of them.
You can get these RIGHT HERE at NikeStore.com if you want a very plain, all black slide
N.Y.L.A. Women’s Mariah Bootie…

The price is right though at less than 90 bucks. You can get them RIGHT HERE.
BCBGeneration – Minska Shoe Bootie
(what’s a shoe bootie??? LOL)
Its just a really nice looking “shoe boot” that probably isn’t much of a boot, but passes as a shoe. Price cut in half (almost) and you can get them RIGHT HERE.

Not bad for 50+ bucks.
Guess what’s on sale… Asics GT-II at ALLIKE.com
(this is nice!!! take advantage of it peoples)
While browsing the web to populate my new website with buttloads of crap stuff , I found this wonderful pair of kicks on sale…. and I mean on SALE sale. We are talking about 50% off.

Nike Air Max 24-7 IN Neon
(so sweet!)
I feel like such a big dummee for not being able to find these on sale somewhere online where I usually get stuff… just for it to be on the NikeStore.com website RIGHT HERE. They could have been in the house already.
This slideshow requires JavaScript.
I’ll admit though I only want to get one of these (trying to stay on a budget this year… and next) but I like 3 of the 24-7 so far – the neons, the chili, and that 24-7 Air Attack with all reflective 3M material. Man… for a guy who doesn’t want to spend 1G on sneakers that will hardly get worn, I am sure trying to find ways to still spend the money (I will admit, I will be wearing the 4-7′s and the 2010 because they are to comfortable not to wear them all the time).
For detailed shots check out below… pretty sure the slide show is enough but just in case lol
Y-3 – Shizuka HIGH SNEAKERS at Luisaviaroma

adidas ORIGINALS by Fafi – adidas ZX
(and who is this Fafi anyway?)
Not too sure about the look of these but upon further look at the art detail makes me think I would get them just to have a beautiful girl on my foot.
Ahhhh yeas, beautiful women waiting at my feet
Details:
- Round toe with rubber lip
- Sky blue and small suede eyelets with lilac laces
- Logo and Fafi signature tag on tongue
- Lilac suede cut outs with multicolour customised fafi lining on sides
- Reinforced plastic and mesh upper
- White rubber sole
- COME UP SMALL ACROSS FRONT, FOR ADDED COMFORT PLEASE BE ADVISED TO ORDER A HALF SIZE UP
- Textured logoed tread
- 100%CALFSKIN
How nice. Never heard of a sneaker made up 100% calfskin… in fact I am rather sure this ISN’T 100% calfskin, but who knows, maybe it is LOL

Visit Fafi website RIGHT HERE if you want to know more about the artist. Want the kicks? You can get them RIGHT HERE at Luisaviaroma.com
By the way, Fafi has made a bunch of kicks for adidas so if you don’t like these you should give the others a look.
I Love Sandals – Georgina Goodman LOVE FLATS
(Ummm… really???)
This is one of those times where I just have nothing to say. Yeah it happens. If you want a sandal that lets everybody know you love them then click RIGHT HERE to buy them.

The sizes seem limited though but I am sure its sort of one size fits many with this one. 100% calfskin makes this thing happen for your feet.
beGrown… beSexy WOMEN: Nicholas Kirkwood – Elastic Back Zip Sandals – LUISAVIAROMA
(only for the ladies who can pull these off)
Nice tones of brown and shimmery iron on this shoe. A great way to show off your toes and still be in heels. Don’t expect this shoe to be all leather though even at its 800+ dollar price because it is made of 40% leather and the rest is elastic… really expensive elastic.
Oh and don’t get m started on the suggested matching items… one of which is over 14 grand… but if you got the money then it may not bother you at all. Besides, sometimes its expensive to look good I guess.

If you want them and don’t mind the price, then you can get them RIGHT HERE at LUISAVIAROMA
Air Attack 24-7… now with faux horse hair
Is this sneaker a collectible? It sure is. Might not be the collectible most think of but it is very much something you may want in your climate controlled sneaker closet.
All part of the ever expanding Nike Air Attack of which is seemingly trying to bring back the better parts of 2007-08 color craziness. Remember that? It was bananas… like literally bright yellow banana colors all over the place lol
This slideshow requires JavaScript.
You can get them RIGHT HERE along with other parts of the Air Attack Pack at NikeStore.com
Fake horse hair… all for you (it actually looks pretty smooth in person), and plenty of air. I am sure, as people are finding out all over NYC, that the Air Max 2009 is a sneaker worth paying $160 for.
Nike Air Attack 24/7… can anybody stop the Air Attack?
(one of the better looking of the Air Attack Pack)
You know someone… hint hint… should do a special on ALL of the Air Attack. In fact someone should try to interview these guys on how they came up with this idea, the materials and the colorways.
Who’s gonna stand up and do this? (I maybe too busy… LOL)
Personally I like the 27/7 more than the others but I could go for the other sneaker styles.
beGrown… beSexy WOMEN: Charlotte Olympia – Cage Open Toe Ankle Boot – Luisaviaroma
(enough pink on the heel for you?)
Now this is a shoe for the ages. It is simple but direct. I can’t say anything bad about it… ok, it looks a little uncomfortable, but all those high heel shoes do LOL

- Rounded open toe with grey leather lining
- 30mm platform
- Wide crossover leather straps with cutouts

ROBERTO CAVALLI – Wooden Heel Napper Wedges – LUISAVIAROMA

You can find them RIGHT HERE if you want to check them out for more info. Those who are shy about paying allot of money for footwear may be in for a shock though.
I Still Like My Air Jordan Six Rings… just can’t bring myself to wearing them
(think I may give these away… anybody wear a size 12?)
And speaking of stuff that I didn’t totally wear… I am having a sort of re-opening of my site. The fireworks begin somewhere around Wednesday night, but most of you probably won’t see it all until Thursday. I am looking forward to it.
H Williams Spring 2010
(a very interesting look to say the least)
Yeah I read this over a month ago but I wanted to still post about it so here it is. First heard of it on Running With Heels. At first I wasn’t too impressed but then I went over to H Williams site and had to change my mind.
Some really nice stuff going on over there. For more on H. Williams (who needs a first name?) head over HERE.
