Remember the Mekanism/Invader Skateboard we talked about on our old site? The same company, Mekanism, is now releasing some new tees for spring/summer 2005. Check out their site at www.mekanismskateboards.com if to find out what shops carry them!
On April 1st, 2005 which is like only 2 days later, the last model in the adidas 35th Anniversary series will be revealed on the adidas website. This top secret model will be the most limited of all the 35th Anniversary Superstars. Using the Superstar vintage as the base shoe, only 300 of this model will be released. Also I heard you’ll have to do some skill testing question to get this shoe. So check back on April 1st, 2005 to find out how you can obtain this once in a life time shoe.
Nike Skateboarding has updated their site with some new shoes which include the Nike Blazer SB (on the right) and the Nike Dunk Low “Boca”. I don’t know why but you’ll find the Nike Blazer SB in the Dunk section which is most likely a mistake. The Nike Dunk “Boca” comes in varsity royal/lightening colors which are by BOCA Juniors. Both are looking pretty nice so look for these soon in your local SB shops.
If you’re interested in the upcoming Nike Court Froce hTm, then you’ll probably be interested to know that they will be coming out in four different colors: black/white, brown/white, sky blue/white and dark blue/white. Same as before, they will be limited to only 1000 pairs.

I know these are not from Mita Sneakers (the Japanese sneaker store responsible for the Nike Air Force 1 Mita) but nevertheless they look alike since they use the same ostrich toe overlay. In addition, this Nike Dunk Hi has almost every other material you can think of which includes mesh, patent leather, croc style skin, and the leather used in the Nike Dunk Hufs SB. It also has a gum sole along with a purple mid sole. Talk about multiple personalities!

tim at Crooked Tongues likes this shoe and he has every reason to because they are so damn hot. Usually, I’m not a big Reebok fan other than the original Pumps but this Reebok LX 8500 has made me change my mind.
“The LX-8500 is part of Reebok’s ’80s runner collection, originally part of the JPE series of Japanese limited edition releases, and this colourway will be the first UK release. Coming out around September 2005, this is the first in the series and incorporates snakeskin patterns, and 5 different materials including 3M reflective panels.”

Even though Easter has past, you can still enjoy it with these Nike Easter Air Force Ones. These come in the Easter colors which are pink, baby blue, lilac and white and are all in patent leather. The tag on the tongue and the insole has a cracked easter egg as well.
