a big part of the challenge here is that: most items that begin to push the tech/design envelope are allowed to stand for years before the public demands something new. this is not the case with fashion. fashion is expected to be updated every year, if not every weather season within a year! so, tinker and swoosh have to Nike Free Run 3.0 keep pumping out new stuff and are expected to meet or surpass the highest bar ever set Nike Free Run 4.0 in shoe design. Rei Kawakubo empire has brushed up with Nike once again in the form of this new Nike Blazer Low release. The sneakers come from the BLACK Comme Des Garcons line and feature, you guessed it, a palette very much in line with the name of that particular collection.

I love how people get made fun of for liking Spizikes Son Of Mars. God forbid, someone have on a different pair of shoeson their feet than EVERYONE else. Spizikes are referred to as garbage and trash all the time yet they are better made than majority of the newer re-released retros. The newest model features a black monotone upper with leather on the toe box, and soft suede protecting all parts of the shoe that regularly take skateboarding abuse. These suede panels are also double stitched for enhanced durability. The side panels of the shoe are a lightweight breathable mesh.

At the moment, Northern New Jersey Teaneck Armory is serving as a refuge for those without homes and power from Hurricane Sandy, but almost half a century ago, it was the home of the New Jersey Americans. The now defunct ABA basketball team played in the Armory from 1967-1968 before eventually moving on and becoming the NJ Nets, and as a tribute to the longstanding structure, another Teaneck institution, Packer Shoes, will be paying tribute with their latest sneaker collaboration. Packer has teamed up with adidas Originals for a contemporary new spin on the classic Conductor Hi model, giving it a luxurious makeover with a patriotic look that ties in both the Teaneck Armory and the long gone NJ Americans bball franchise.
