Forget about getting the top secret model and get this instead (or get both!). Crooked Tongues have posted a new auction for an unreleased “Beastie Boys” Superstar, signed by MCA, Adrock & Mike D!

With all the Dunks and Air Force 1s flooding the market, these hot new Nike Air Zoom Talaria are totally being overlooked. The combination of different material used on the upper is a nice touch.
