I’d have to say that the Adicolor launch has been the most impressive marketing and advertising plan executed this year in terms of sneaker releases. My second choice would be the release of the Nike Air Max 360’s. But I digress. As part of another elaborate marketing stunt, Adidas has wisely placed Adicolor products in some bodegas and corner stores in and around New York City. The meaning behind this is that Adidas is allowing people to see Adicolor products in “real-life scenarios.” Check out this “product placement” (image to right) of the Jeremy Scott/Keith Harring Adicolor Hi in a bodega right above the soda fridge and next to tampons. Explore all 7 Locations around NYC if you must.
Seven adicolor Locations:
1. Deli Spring & Lafayette: Soho
2. Marlow & Sons: Williamsburg/Brooklyn
3. Grand Food Market Inc Grand and Crosby
4. Deli on Prince and Sullivan
5. Jewel News: Union Square
6. DeliMart: North 7/Bedford/Brooklyn
7. Deli Next to Arlene’s Grocery: Lower East Side

Here is a look at some of the GR (general release) Dunks that will be coming out sometime in the future. Some of the colorways like the orange/white Dunk is actually not too shabby. It seems like there’s even a clear sole on them.

It seems like that there will be a new option for Nike iD Air Force Ones. According to these pictures from Nike iD, you will be able to use gold foil on the Swoosh of the Air Force Ones. Perhaps, you may be able to apply it elsewhere but that is not known at this time. However, these Nike iD Air Force Ones with the gold foil option will only be available at Nike iD studios according to what people are saying on Niketalk.

Once again, the girls at Married to the Mob have posted a new picture of an upcoming tee from their newest collection. This time it’s a collaboration tee with the Wu-Tang Clan. The tee HAS a logo saying “MOB AIN’T NUTHIN TO FUCK WITH!” on the front with the “W” in the word “WITH” being the Wu-Tang Clan logo. This t-shirt will not be the only Wu-Tang collaborated item so you can expect more from where this is coming from.

PRPS, one of my personal favorite denim brands, has just launched their newly designed website. On it, you can find a lot of information about the brand including the African cotton used for the jeans, the crafting process and also a collection of photographs of the jeans themselves. Even if you’re not a fan of the brand, you should check out the site because it’s very well designed.
