Nike Air Huarache "Cool Grey"

Another hot one from the Nike brand. It's rare to hear about hot Nikes that aren't some type of special editions, made by someone famous, or they are a pair of Air Forces, Air Max, Blazers or Dunks. Don't argue that fact. It can't be argued. When was the last time you bought a pair of Nikes that weren't made by Jordan, Kobe, or Lebron? When was the last time you bought a pair of Air Forces, Air Max, Blazers or Dunks? Now, for the hard question, when was the last time you bought a pair of the Nike Air Huarache? I'm not criticizing those who buy the usual Nikes that are considered hot. My post yesterday was about Jordans, and on top of that, the last two pairs of sneakers I bought, were Dunks and Blazers, respectively. Without further a do, let's get to the Nike Air Huarache.The Nike Air Huarache is a sportswear sneaker, but is such a fresh sneaker that you can even pull it off casually. Featuring a mostly grey upper, a white mid-sole, white laces, and a white swoosh logo, the Air Huarache have to be one of the hottest sneakers under the radar. Nike continues to out-do themselves. These are already out and retail for $79.99. With school starting next week, I'm definitely trying to cop me a pair of these. Who's with me?

A Post From Out Of This World: "Space Jams"

Who runs the sneaker game? Don't think about answering that, it's a question that doesn't even need answering. Nike has been running the sneaker game for decades. Who's in second place? Jordan, Nike's sub-division.
The "Space Jams" are a re-release of the Air Jordan 11. They feature a mostly black upper. The most interesting part is the revered Jumpman logo. The icy blue bottom is a touch that truly makes the sneakers out of this world. The shoes will drop at the end of '09. Definitely a necessity for sneaker collectors everywhere.

It All Starts With A "Blueprint" .

First off , the site is about to be crack. Coming in everyday with the freshest in kicks, gear, music, and all that good, along with the opinion of a mother-effing genius. So without further a do: Jay-Z - Off That (feat. Drake).

Jay-Z is still on top of his game. Releasing his first album since the critically acclaimed, concept album, American Gangster, and his first album under his brand new Roc Nation imprint. It seems that with all the changes, Jay-Z has changed too. Hip-Hop's mentor lets everyone know that ignorance in Hip-Hop has died. Simply put, oversized clothes and chains, fighting in the club, chasing fame, and making it rain, among other things are dead. Simply put, we "off that." Jay-Z still masters cool like no one else does. Drake holds his own on the song's chorus schooling rookies like he's a professional. All this on a Timbaland beat, and you have one of the hottest cuts of 2009. The Blueprint 3 is in stores September 11th.
