Sneakers I dig: 12/8/09
I’ll tell you what, it sure is a slow news week, but at least we still have our sneakers. Set to release on 12/19 worldwide, the Nike Sportswear Lunarwood TZ, builds off the classic “ACG” model and makes it modern. According to the designer/Nike collaborator Wood Wood “The...

My oh my is the holiday season bringing us lots and lots of sneakers. Now if the various manufacturers could just coordinate with Santa or Hanuka Harry (he’s not real) than we’d all be ok. For the third installment of Sneakers I dig today, I bring you yet another nice Adidas High Top known...

Folks, I have told you before not to forget about Asics, even though they basically make one style of shoe that’s hot, in about 45,000 colorways. I’m not sure if that qualifies them as a one trick pony, but these are 2 tricks that are pretty great. Set to release….”soon”…....

My-A-didas! Yes sir, the favorite sneaker brand of Joseph Simmons and Daryl MacDaniels (Run-DMC) are back with some black and white flavor for your nasty, over-worked, dogs. I own a pair of these in a different color, and they are definitely a chunkier high-top than your standard Nike Dunk. What I...

The Nike Air Pegasus and the destruction of the Berlin Wall have 1 thing in common: they both happened in 1989. To celebrate both, Nike has re-released the sneaker as the “Air Pegasus ’89 “Berlin Wall,” playing on the already classic silhouette, and adding new colors, materials,...

Um, yes please….I posted something very similar to these back in the first edition of “Sneakers I dig” in early October. But these have more wool on them, which is great because it’s December now and we need more warmth. Know as the Nike Dunk Hi Supreme Spark, these sneakers...

Week after week, I feature all of this beautiful footwear to spice up your closet, but don’t think for a minute that I mean for you to buy them and then run them into the ground. As a teenager, I would baby my sneakers (and Timberland boots) like they had a pulse, caring for them, wiping their...

Well looky what we have here, yet another pair of Air Max 1′s. This pair is another collaboration with Dutch store Patta, that always seems to come up with something fresh. The Air Max 1 Premium QS features a mish-mosh of colors, and materials that make me very happy. From Navy blue corduroy...

The Air Max 1 is my current favorite “running shoe” silhouette. I own a few different colors, and I find they look great with everything from shorts, to sweats, to jeans. Nike Sportswear continues their release of the “East vs. West” pack with the Nike Air Max 1 Baroque Brown...

There is nothing that I need to say about these that I haven’t already said in previous “Sneakers I dig” posts. They’re Nike’s, they’re black, they’re hightops, they’re versatile. Nike isn’t reinventing the wheel here, but the great news is: they...

One sneaker I tend to forget about (probably because I don’t own any…probably about to change), is the Asics Gel Lyte III. They have done numerous collaborations with companies like David Z, and have offered up so many really nice colorways. I mean like 100s of them. This particular pair...

We’re back folks. Clean, understated, hightop, Nikes. Listen, some brands just know what to do. I’d be lying if I told you I wasn’t partial to Nikes, though I do have a few pair of Adidas my normal rotation, along with a few less popular brands. That said, I offer you the Nike...

If you haven’t already noticed, I’m very into understated designs, clean colorways, and high-tops. The Dynasty High Quickstike LE from Nike fits the bill. Grey is a big color right now in fashion, and more importantly for me. When I was younger, I only thought about “neutrals”...
