Parra for Nike Air Max 1
Many people have been waiting for the news on these special Air Max 1’s. Initially though to be part of the celebration of Patta’s 5th anniversary last year, since they released 4 different colorways of the Air Max 1 to commemorate the occasion. What we thought was going to be the final release of the 5th pair we now find out is a actually a Parra shoe. We saw sneak peeks of the shoe in videos and at the Magic tradeshow in Las Vegas but now we know they will be released. It looks like it will be hard to get our hands on these as they will be limited to Patta. Designed by Parra the upper of the shoe is made up of a mix of suede and mesh with a chenille swoosh. The Parra logo is put onto the tongue in Blue along with the laces and upper eyelets. The shoeliner will contain special graphics from Parra. The shoe is finished off with a special multi-colored outsole. Going to be sole at Patta on March 13th this limited shoes will make it to very select Nike Sportswear accounts as well. Better call in your favors as this shoe will be hard to grab. If you know a sneakerstore who will be public the sneaker, please post at comment. A detailed look at the Air Max 1 follow after the jump.

Alexander McQueen was one of the most important english Designers of his time, not only because of his famous and glamorous outfits for Lady GaGa. On February 11th he passed away at the age of only 41 years, but his designs will be unforgotten.
His crossover into sportswear was perhaps best exemplified with his ongoing relationship with PUMA with a seasonal collection bearing his name. The Black Tech KO is presented here as it features a sleek mixed material upper with a nod to the traditional boxing boot.

Back in June 2009 Nike brought to us the Nike Dunk “Planet Of The Apes” designed by sneaker customizer Chrisco. Little did we know at the time but those were just the kicker to what is known as the Marvel Mash-Up, a collection of custom sneakers inspired by a variety of Marvel Comics. After debuting the first pair we are now pleased to present you Vol. 2 of the Marvel Mash-Up by Chrisco.
For volume 2 Chrisco went with a Nike Dunk Low carrying a theme inspired by none other then Dr. Bruce Banner, also known as the Incredible Hulk. As the story goes Bruce Banner was accidentally exposed to a test detonation of a gamma bomb he invented which has caused him at times, usually when he gets mad, to involuntarily transform into the green, raging giant known as the Hulk. For his Hulk inspired Dunks Chrisco started off with a pair of White on White Low’s and painted the tongue, toe box, mid-panel and ankle panel all Green to match the Hulk’s body color. Purple denim with rugged edges was then fastened around the frontal, heel, and on the lace panels to present the Hulk’s ripped purple pants from the Marvel Comic series. Black felt was then stitched up on the Nike Swoosh and on the heel tab which includes “HULK” in Green embroidery, and a Marvel Comics logo was then worked onto a pair of tongue tags for the sneakers. The upper itself is no doubt a well executed design but what really helps wraps up these customs for me is the sole swap Chrisco did taking the sole unit from a pair of Earthquake Nike Dunks and incorporating it onto the Dunk Low to bring forth the cracked rock/cement pattern that the Incredible Hulk is usually associated with.

Have you seen Carmelo Anthony’s All Jordan Melo M6 on the last 2010 NBA All-Star game in Dallas? If not, then have a look on his footwear for the mentioned game by looking carefully at these pictures. Carmelo Anthony showed flashes of the hustle and all-around game that has made him one of the most versatile players in the league, as he poured in 17 first-half points and asserted himself more than in prior year’s All-Star games. Maybe the white, crimson and gold colors of his Jordan Melo M6 were his lucky charms. Aside from the striking colors, the customized stitches and lasered designs made the All-Star festivities a real celebration.

Tuesday, 23.February.2010 | Posted in Brands, Sneakers, Sports by · Comments OffAston Martin x Kobe Bryant x Nike Hyperdunk
2008, when Nike released the Hyperdunk they started working together with LA Lakers Superstar Kobe Bryant to promote their new kicks. They produced several videos with Kobe jumping to incredible heights which Nike wanted us to believe was only possible when wearing a pair of the ultra light Hyperdunks. Kobe was seen jumping over an assortment of things, one of them being a moving Aston Martin.
Now Aston Martin isn´t any longer only featured with a car in a video but got its´ own sneaker toghether with Kobe. The shoes feature a chrome like Metallic Silver finish on the toe, ankle panel, lace panels and heel cap, with a Gunmetal color on the Flywire upper and Silver again on the mid-sole. The inner lining is fabricated from smooth Red leather to resemble the exotic leather interior on an Aston Martin and fixed to the tongue is a round piece of carbon fiber with Kobe’s name, the Aston Martin logo and the Nike Swoosh all printed on it in a stacked formation. Kobe’s signature is also included on the backside of the tongue on a Red leather tag.
These kicks will be limited to 500 pairs and are expected to drop sometime during Spring.
