It seems like Banksy is still in New York City, as new works by the UK artist keep popping up. The hardest part is to actually catch them before being vandalized by other writers. After the “I Heart NY”, “Dumbo”, “Will Work for Idiots” and “Smiley” pieces, here comes now the latest one spotted in Harlem.
A new colorway of the Nike Dynasty81 has been released today. The high top comes with a black mixed upper and purple accents on the logo tags, outer sole and on the contrasting stitching. The sneaker is now available from the Nike Store.
Flatspot has received their monthly Nike SB shipment early once again. One of the highlights we haven’t seen yet is this Dunk Hi in suede and perforated leather with a Solar Orange contrast toe piece and outsole. A little Halloween’y for June, but works well.
The Nike Air Max 24-7 has been released in the OG colorways of the Nike Air Max 95. Both the neon yellow and red colorways are now available from Undefeated Japan.
Nike Tennis presents their official French Open 2010 athlete kits. For the men, Nike has outfitted Federer and Nadal with head to toe performance gear. Our favorite part is definitely Nadal’s Agassi-inspired tennis sneaker. How dope is that for a modern sports shoe? Nike Air Court Ballistec 2.3 is the name for those interested in finding a pair.
As part of their Apex Initiative, Alpinestars will present a series of product collaborations with like minded individuals and brands. First up is a collaboration with Marc Arcenal and his Fatlace collective. As part of the collaboraiton they present a high top sneaker with a large embossed Fatlace logo, as well as a t-shirt and a one-off Fatlace racing suit.
“The apex represents a point where two directions meet; the transition from entrance to exit. The pinnacle. The Alpinestars APEX INITIATIVE will exist as a transition and weight transfer from Alpinestars’ commitment to and passion for motorsports, into a creative venture, combining fashion, technology, art and culture. APEX INITIATIVE will serve as a collaboration of creativity, representing the meeting point of motorsports, culture and lifestyle.”
Sorry about that slight website downage. We tried to implement something new to the site and everything went haywire. We will not try that again. Sorry once again to all our readers for that slight hiccup. Peace.
After the Blazer, we present you here now the Nike Air Max 90 Quickstrike dedicated to the World Expo in Shanghai. The sneaker comes with a leather/patent leather upper and features the same pattern that was already on the Blazer Hi – the architectural outline of the Chinese Pavillon. The sneaker is now available from Kix-Files.
While New Balance is known for keeping it classic and solid on their shoe designs, they were never shy of using quite a bit of 3M to set highlights on their footwear. For Spring/Summer 2010 they present the 574 “3M” Collection. From suede to premium leather and reflective croc leather, the range includes pretty much anything one could ask for.
We have already presented to you the Nike SB “Dirty Money” footwear, celebrating the release of the documentary on Brazil’s skateboarding history. This week Nike SB has launched a micro-site giving you some more information on the project, the footwear and also letting you download the complete documentary.
