Nike Zoom Fly-Lite

This is my latest design. I wanted to go ahead and post the lateral view. Im working on the medial and bottom view. I will post as soon as I am finished with them. I got inspiration from the Nike hyper dunk 2010. I wanted the shoe to have the new flywire skin that is being used on the Kobe V and also the Nike Hyper Dunk 2010. The shoe also has a huarache feel to the collar and sits on a neon green translucent heel outsole. Please comment. It will only help me improve my skills. Thanks enjoy.

Nike Penny Foamposite 1 "Kryptonate" PS

This is a PhotoShop rendering that I did with the Eggplant Penny Foamposite. I left the right shoe the same to show the difference. I have the lime green fading towards the toe into bright neon yellow as a resemblance to the Nike Foamposite Lite with the Kryptonate colorway. Enjoy

Nike Air Max Lebron VII P.S



These are the special playoff signature Air Max Lebron VII. These are absolutely sick. Unlike the original version these sports Air Zoom technology and also has subtle changes through out the upper. On the medial heel, where you would normally see an LBJ23 logo, the Lion logo appears instead. The liner is quilted, as is the panel that wraps over the collar. On the heel tab, a special 7PS logo has been designed and used, as well. Red appears on the mesh tongue, Flywire thread and also patent leather on the tip of the tongue.

The Air Jordan Retro 1 KO



This is the first retro ever for the Air Jordan 1 KO. These were released back in 1985. This was a subset to the Original Air Jordan 1 with a canvas treatment through out the shoe. The retro Features the OG White, Red, and Black colorway on a canvas and leather upper like the original. A first for the Brand Jordan, the AJKO features the vintage treatment with a slightly yellowed upper, a scuffed midsole, and a scuffed outsole. The AJKO retro is set to release later this Summer. In my opinion if JB plans to keep the vintage detail on the shoe it will be a terrible idea to make this shoe a general release. With the market for retros growing smaller and smaller each year the main buyers being between the ages of 20-late 30's maybe are only going to know what this shoe was. The true sneaker heads who was around when MJ was playing with Chicago and actually wanted the shoes because of how MJ played the game will want the AJKO. No one is going to want to pay for a shoe that looks like someone played in them 25 years ago. Unless you are part of that select group like I am that knows what the shoe represents.

Air Max Lebron VII "Kentucky" PE




I was watching the UK game on Saturday and I Just knew that John Wall and some other players were rocking the "Kentucky" PE Air Max Lebron VII's. These are absolutely sick. It coincides perfectly with the Kentucky basketball jerseys to say the least. The base is primarily black with a Kentucky blue patent leather stip surrounding the entire upper. The white swoosh outlined in blue and the white flywire design give this shoe a nice contrasting color scheme. I have been anticipating these ever since I first heard they were a rumor. Being a University of Kentucky fan and also living in Northern Kentucky. If these release, I really hope I can get my hands on a pair a lot easier than some. Enjoy the pics.
