High Voltage

Not many people dug the GR LeBron X "Dunkman"...here's an all "Volt" version dropping soon.

Not. Even. Close.

...but thanks for trying...

So let me get this straight -- the "Knicks" Air Jordan 1 dropping tomorrow is $140...

...while the original Bulls colorway AJ 1 also drops tomorrow for $110. 

So, I'm paying $30 for Nike Air tags and a Nike Air box?!?

Ty One On

They might as well rename the "Blue Diamond" Lebron X the signature shoe of Ty Lawson since its the only shoe he wears now...

The Denver Nuggets point guard probably loves the shoe for the same reason I do: the cushioning. 

A full-length vis Zoom air unit + Phylon midsole = heaven on your feet.

This shoe is Nike+ Sport Kit ready, but I don't mess with it.  I can't even find my Nike Plus watch in my house...

 

Flywire cables (like the latest Hyperdunk) keep the shoe supportive up top, designed to move naturally with the body, for sudden changes of direction and lockdown fit.

Prisms next!

String Me Along

Only available at Saint Alfred in Chicago and Kicks/Hi in Hawaii...the STA x Converse "First String" Pro Leather Mid. 

 

"We're proud to present our take on the iconic Converse Dr J Pro Leather. Taking inspiration from Chicago's cold winters as well as the wool used in military blankets. We've created a shoe that will be able to handle the chilly and sometimes messy climate as well as stand out from your usual sneaker. Above all we wanted it to coinside with our aesthetic of clean and timeless design. Available in either black or grey (gargoyle)."

'Tis The Season

The 2012 Nike Christmas Basketball lineup, dropping this Wednesday (Lebron/Kobe/Durant).  How does it stack up to the past few X-Mas releases?  I say its second best...

The 2011 collection was the worst (the Lebron 9 was the only saving grace)...

The best so far has been the 2010. It's hard to pick a favorite; the simple Bron 8, loud KD 3 & legendary "Grinch" Kobe 6.

Hyper-extended

Kobe dropped his first signature shoe for the 2005-2006 season, but it didn't stop Mamba from donning other models with his Shizoko logo on it...

Nike's big Hyperdunk push in 2008 was centered around Kobe wearing the shoe bearing his logo.

Kobe wore a PE version of the shoe, featuring patent leather on the toe instead of full grain leather.
