Calum @ the Crooked Tongues Forum recently unveiled a picture of an upcoming Nike Hybrid model involving the Free, Air Trainer 1, and Dunk. The brown reptile skin coupled with the pink splatter midsole will prove to be an interesting combination.
Japanese brands Neighborhood and G1950 have gotten together to produce some accessories including a rug and a toy. Neighborhood’s rock theme’s combined with G1950’s knack for designing housewares and other miscellaneous items definitely yielded some interesting results.

Legendary street artist Futura recently revamped his website and the most interesting aspect of the website (which a large basis of it is formed) is the “Picture of the Day” feature in which a new picture documents his days adventures.
For some, the Loon Dunk Low SB marked something on the truly upper echelon of grail status. With it’s existence rumored at only a handful of pairs, it truly is one of those sneakers worthy of grail status when the term has been thrown around so liberally. Originally fashioned after the Minnesota State bird, the Loon Duck, this symbol can also be seen on the $1 Canadian coin (the Loonie). This bird’s colors proved to carry over quite well when it’s colorway was superimposed onto that of a shoe.
Although some my be hesitant to pick up anything from Nike SB, I truly believe that good colorways can transcend the shoe barrier and look good on almost any model and the Tre proves my theory.
