For the first installment of their spring preview, Flying Coffin is showing off the upcoming “Brainz” tee done in black with 3M ink. As you may be aware, the image is of Kyra Schon who played Karen Cooper in the zombie classic “Night of the Living Dead”. What you may not realize is that what you see in the photo above is in fact 1 tee, and not 2 as it may appear. The first photo is what the tee will look like most of the time, and the 2nd is how it is seen in the right light or when hit with a camera flash.

1Thology can only be described as the mecca of sneaker sites. Sure it only a catalog of Air Force 1’s, but there is no denying the fact the outcome and influence the Air Force 1 has had on the sneaker scene. For some, over the next few days, weeks, and possible months 1thology will be something you may check day in and day out to relive the glorious past of sneakers once worn but have long gone now. Or maybe you will spot those AF1’s you saw at your local spot in passing as a young penniless teen. Regardless, it is no easy feat to look through NINE HUNDRED AND TWENTY NINE Air Force 1’s. To make it even more complex, each shoe contains 3 different views, the ability to zoom in/out as well as comprehensive information.
If the experience in itself of reliving the yesteryears regarding the Air Force 1 wasn’t good enough, Nike has done a good job of making this a very interactive website. They have included such features as “1Print” which allows you to actually create your own poster and purchase it. As well you can continually “add shoes” to your personal ongoing collection. It’s essentially a way of bookmarking your favorite AF1’s for you to share! Got a story about how you scored your first triple double back in ‘82 in those White/Grey High’s? Met your future wife wearing Goldenrod Jewel Mid’s back in ‘99? There is an option to submit stories to Nike to share with all the other AF1 heads out there. Don’t worry I saved the best feature for last. The “Shoe of the Month” gives you the ability to vote for your favorite AF1 each month of 2007. At the end of the year the “Shoe of the Year” will get reissued!
This new Nike Air Force 1 interactive site will be available on April 11.
