Foot Candy: Nike Dunk Slim Edition

As a Dunk Slim/Skinny owner I can say bravo to Nike for creating the first line of Dunks made specifically for the foot of a female. It's nice to feel like I have small feet for once. Well I have the Nike Cherry Dunk Slim/Skinny in Khaki/Yellow avec les cherries. Here are another pair of Slims that I am digging. I am not one for baby pink but I can get a little girly with the kicks once in a while. I mean these shoes were totally made for me [Dunk Slim...Slim Thugg...get it?!?!?! ahh hush!]. These shoes have been called Skinny and Slim, either way that's all me. Anyway here is what Sneakerfiles has to say about em because I am doing homework and I am too lazy to write about these kicks in my own words:



Nike Sportswear has partnered up with Paule Marrot to release a special Skinny version of the Dunk High. The legendary French textile designer is commissioned to create this Dunk High that has been especialy tailored to fit the feet of women. It accomplishes this by using a less bulky silhouette that is the perfect combination of comfort and style. The Paule Marrot x Nike Sportswear Dunk High Skinny consists of a pink fabric upper complemented by white on the laces, swoosh, tongue and midsole. The rest of the sneaker is composed of pink including the sole and inner lining. Get your pair at Nike Sportswear at 21 Mercer and Nike Sportswear at The Montalban starting May 2nd.

I'd cop, would you?

Guys Who Rock Fake Kicks...

Have small dicks.

Wii Might As Well...

Another installment in Nike's Nintendo Will Package, which was release recently [I've seen it in popular stores so it isn't exclusive]. The original contained Blazers and Air Force IIs but this time it is a pair of Air Max 95 and Sky Force. The 95s are rather plain, consisting of only white and grey, while the Sky Forces have a hint of color with the orange accents around the edge, check and on the tongue. I've always wondered what my feet would look like in 95s, considering I had my first pair back in 3rd grade [boy did I love those suckers]. I tried looking up a pic for them but the only one I found has a broken link =/. Anywho I might purchase these as a tester...feast your eyes on the pic.

Wii Killin Em'

Not the picture I wanted but Mr. Tristan Wilds [aka my actor boo] wore the Nintendo Wii inspired Nike Air Force II to a Wii sponsored event. Just thought it would be nice to feature him and all his flyness.

Where Are You Yeezy?

Check out Kanye West performing at SXSW in Austin, Texas along with Common, Kid Cudi, and Fonzworth Bentley. Of course Yeezy put on a great performance but what caught my eye in this pic are the Nike Air Yeezy. Lots of buzz about these kicks for a while now and everyone is anxious for when they are going to make their appearance in March. I am very excited for both the Yeezys and Kanye's Pastelle collection. It's gonna be crazy expensive but I will save up for a shirt lol.

these Yeezys glow in the dark =]

I Got V On It Pt. 2

Here are some better pictures of the Red V's from the Raging Bull Package aka DMP 2.
Price: $310
Date: Who knows but I am seeing May 30th

I Got V (5) On It

If you don't get the title, you're a lame.
If you do...thank you for knowing the damn song.
EN-TEE-WHO! Jordan heads, come alive s'il vous plait!



The Jordan packages have been very successful and the success will continue to thrive thanks to the Raging Bull Pack that is set to come out by May 30, 2009. There is no set date but that is the one that they are aiming for. The package contains two pairs of Jordan Vs: a red suede upper pair with a black midsole and a 3M tongue AND a pair of black 3M, black laces, and red details. These seem more like a male oriented package because of the colors and I could see a few guys I knowin them. I don't know if I see chicks in these unless they have really small feet or a certain swag about them.

WAIT! THERE'S MORE...

I personally hate patent leather on sneakers. I think it makes them look so cheap and cheesy. It's the reason I hate Bapes [apart from the fact that they are just plain ugly]. They do come in handy as rain shoes but still I've never owned a pair in my life. Patent leather on Jordans is not my ideal thing [I used the Dub Zeros as rain shoes lol] but these V's look AMAZING! Maybe it is because I have a thing for orange and white but these look really good. The white base has a dark army midsole, an icey sole, a dark cinder tongue, del sol on the insole and Jumpman on the tongue. I would cop honestly. I saw these and my eyes lit up with excitement and I think your's will too. There are no set release date for these but when there is one best believe it will be in my calendar and there will be an alarm on my phone. However, June of this year is the projected month of release.

I don't buy sneakers anymore but those who do, rejoice!

why?

'Cause this skinny bxtch said so.

Foot Candy:: Nike Edition

Another addition to the Nike Pucci Pack.
Nike Womens Outbreak Highs are included along with the same Pucci design and gray & lime green sole accents. I, personally, am not fond of these except for two pairs that I have seen in the past but whatever floats your boat kiddos.

AND...

My first pair of all white sneakers were white Uptowns in fifth grade. I definitely thought I was hot shxt because the song "Air Forces Ones" was big at the time and I was the only one in clean ups. Actually, let me rephrase that...I knew I was hot shxt 'cause lil slim here was the only ones rocking clean, white ups and everyone was on the jealous tip, ya dig? [lmfao that phrase cracks me up all the time]. EN-TEE-WAYS! Nike is releasing an all white Blazer High with a bit of cement print above the midsole and on the heel. These are very clean and sent me back to my fifth grade days of all white kicks. I am not one for plain sneakers unless they are keds but I can definitely rock with these. These are perfect for the warmer months and I can see come cute outfits being built around these. They are also perfect for customizing because they are a blank slate. Be greedy and cop them now at vault and Nike retailers.

[thanks vault]

Foot Candy:: Nike Edition

LADIES!!! The sneaker gods are in our favor. Inspired by the whimsicle and geometrical patterns of Italian designer, Emilio Pucci [if you don't know him you better hit that google loserface], Nike is coming out with a Pucci Package for the females [JOYYY!]. The pack consists of Vandal Low and Court Force High with the Pucci inspired pattern and white leather upper. On the Court Forces there is robin's egg blue, if you will, patten leather, a gold metallic check, and white laces. The Vandals have robin's egg blue laces and a gray leather check. I am beyond excited for this pack...well for the Court Forces at least because in no way am I a fan of Vandals [they crease too easy]. The courts look amazing and I can see them on my feet. They look like a spring season type sneaker so I am loving them at the moment. They are available on kix-files.com. They are $100, I am itching to snatch out my hello kitty debit card...*musttt resisttt urgee to touch plasticccc*

I Got Kicks Different Colors...

Shout out to The Cool Kids for the inspiration of the title.

This sickkk advertisment is for Upper Echelon Shoes created by New York natives Seth Campbell and Nick Cohen. UES is filling the void in the high demand for women’s sneakers by creating new eye catching designs and replacing the boring old laces with 18k gold. That's just asking to get robbed in the hood. These suckers run for $250...one pair, not two, but one pair. Ballin' or not...I'm gonna pass. Nah I'm lying, if I was caking it for real, I'd take a bite of this apple. Actually looking at them upclose, they aren't worth $250, I'd cop if they were $100-$150 on sale. I only posted this because the ad caught my eye and tickled my fancy. Someone should do guys in Dunks or Jordans. May seem a little gay but everyone needs a lil raging homo moment in their life right? You know I love me the gays. Speaking of, I need a gay friend. It is long over due.
