Brand new week, brand new kicks…

Hi Y’all,
Brand new day, brand new week and almost a brand new month. So without further due let’s get it cracking. During my daily online escapades I bumped into quite a few nice kick releases of which I’ll now share few.
Starting off with Nitro Microphone Underground x Air Force 1 High Supreme. Coming out in black and gold colors, this collaborative shoe is dropped in celebration of ten year anniversary of Nitro Microphone Underground’s first album. Make no mistake the Japanese hip hop heavyweights are not rookies when it comes to shoe collabs, as they have already collaborated with Nike in the past. The anniversary aspect is visible in the shoe tongues as the right says 1999 and the left 2009. This heavy-duty shoe also includes screw-top caps on the laces. The shoes are available at selected Nike retailers next month. Below a video featuring the shoes and more importantly music from the group.

Being a Lakers fan and all I could not help but include few Lakers inpired kicks this week.
First the new Nike Auto Flight High, which comes in Lakers signature purple and yellow colors with LA font on the heel.

And the Nike Zoom Kobe 4 Gradient Lakers shoe featuring signature purple on the heel and collar, yellow accents and leather toe area. The Kobe 5 will be released early next year, but until then Kobe 4 will be seen in action. The shoe hits retail in October in celebration of the nee NBA -season starting October 27th.

Another pick of the week comes from Adidas Originals OT Tech Collection. The Tokyo Lo running shoe looks slick. It’s OT but not OTT for sure. Looks good and comes packed with features such as Gore-Tex lining. I don’t know, I just like the looks of the shoe, heh.

Then few updates; new KIX TYO -tees will be available shortly and don’t forget to check the last day of Back to School promotion.
The weather looks a bit gloomy but I don’t mind. Much to do, so better get things done.
Prosperous week to everyone.
