Back in 2006, Team Jordan released an exclusive Thunder and Lightning Air Jordan 4 set. This Fall get ready for more thunder and possibly, a second strike of lightning. The re-release of the Black Thunders has been announced which may be followed by the Yellow Lightning.
I guess Nike didn’t listen to Pixar’s Lightning McQueen who knows that thunder always comes after lightning. Ka-chow!
It’s highly unlikely, but I wonder if Nike would consider designing shoes inspired by HBO’s Game of Thrones. There could be some interesting colorways tied to the regions and peoples of Westeros.
The family sigils have already been redesigned by Nike’s Darrin Crescenzi, and I could easily see these translated to Nike’s kicks. Hmm, a shaggy, equine Dothraki Dunk or a dragon-scaled Targaryen Air Force One…
Came across these items while browsing Safeway.
Still no Slam magazine Kicks edition. I might have to look elsewhere.
The Air Jordan 4 was retroed in a Thunder and Lightning pack back in 2006. The 2012 Olympic Games bring a thunder and lightning rendition of the Air Jordan 6 and 7. Dubbed the Golden Moments Pack, this set includes an Air Jordan 6 in white and gold and an Air Jordan 7 in black and gold.
$350 for this piece of Olympic kicks history. Available August 18, 2012.
Nike’s new Air Max Express is a great combination of old and new stylings. Love the vintage Air Max logo and incorporating a velcro strap is always a plus. These colorways are crazy, but they work. The orange grey is my favorite but the black and green is definitely the most wearable.
Of course, these would blend in perfectly at Disneyland…
When you got the means and the addiction, you can be a kicks addict like Nate Robinson. Check out his kicks gallery. Here’s just his Foamposite collection.
Will Hauns Brereton keep his fiery Adidas when UH’s Big West season begins? Okay, so these red and black Adidas don’t match the UH unis, but superstition says that if you got the hot hand, you keep doing what you been doing. If Hauns can score 47 points a game then he needs to keep them kicks!

Scanning pictures taken from the blessing ceremony for Season 3 of Hawaii Five-0, I didn’t see anyone wearing the custom designed Nike Free Trainer 5.0. These shoes needed an appearance at this event. 🙁
I’m hoping these kicks are seen sometime this season on or off air, preferably on air. C’mon H50, if you got custom kicks, you gotta book’em rock’em!
I can’t deny it. Nike’s Structure line of running shoes is for me. No matter what other Nikes I experiment with, I always come back to the Structure. I used to run in the Moto but moved up to the more supportive Structure line. I’ve had the 12, the 14, and recently, picked up the discounted 15. Darn Zappos for telling me about these shoes!!
I guess my flat feet need the stability provided by these shoes. I wasn’t completely sold on this wolf grey colorway, but in person, they’re not bad. And you know you can get away with the most outlandish, gaudy shoes while running. In fact, it’s expected!
With the Miami Heat’s championship, there may be a surge in the sales of Spalding basketball shoes. Yes, Spalding makes kicks as displayed by Heat guard Mario Chalmers. He wears the Spalding Splash that looks like this.
So what if DWade who’s endorsed by Team Jordan and LeBron with his own Nike signature line don’t approve of the Spaldings, at $90 these are not exorbitantly priced.
If you’re not wooed by the Splash, then you’ll have to wait for the LeBron X shoe, releasing later this year at a rumored $315!!
After a recent, tiring run, I thought I was hallucinated. I heard Jeremy Lin speaking to me. He was congratulating me on my workout. Oh wait, that was JLin speaking through the Nike+ system.
Instead of congratulating me on my run, I would rather JLin tell me he’s giving me a pair of his custom kicks.
