The Greedy Genius Apache was first previewed at last year’s Project trade show in Vegas. This new model will be released within the next month as part of the more exclusive GEO GREEDY PRVLG Collection for Spring.

The Apache takes inspiration from the Air Jordan era of the 1980’s and 1990’s. This model resembles the Jordan 5. These shoes feature a white upper that combines a variety of interesting textures and colors, including yellow, blue, hot pink and grey.

The multiple colors are used throughout but are not large, overpowering blocks of color. Look for them from Greedy Genius in February. Via Freshness

Like many other shoe companies are doing this winter, Greedy Genius has recently released a Lumberjack Pack featuring colorful plaid that we see in flannel shirts worn by lumberjacks.

Greedy Genius took four of their popular models - Primo, Cool Breeze, Phantom and Paratrooper and dressed them up using different colors of plaid. These shoes combine leather, suede and even touches of snake embossed patent leather to create very interesting shoes.

The Primo version above dubbed “Roho” is my favorite in the pack. The low sneaker combines simple styling with the typical red plaid material. This shoe is available right now at Karmaloop for just $90.

Also in the pack is a red/black high Cool Breeze and the same shoe in grey as well. These shoes retail for about $120.

Another favorite in the pack is the low Phantom called “Blue Foot” which uses black snake embossed patent throughout the blue/white plaid shoe. This good looking sneaker is just $100 at Karmaloop.

You can find these and several other shoes from the Lumberjack Pack right now at Greedy Genius retailers.

Greedy Genius has teamed up with Liquor Woman & Tears, one of the most exclusive high end boutiques in Toyko, to create the exclusive Harbor Master.

This shoe features premium black leather, plus patent black leather with a gold pattern throughout the shoe. These sneakers are very unique with lots of interesting details, including the red stitching around the top edge of the sole and red laces, as well as a red and black houndstooth pattern on the inner lining of the shoe.

The black/gold pattern is the most unique thing about these shoes though. It’s as if these shoes were scratched to reveal the shiny gold. Check out the closeups on the next page for a more detailed look.

This new Greedy Genius line will be released within the next few weeks.

The only Low in the collection is Lights Out, which combines suede and leather in a black and red colorway to make a very good looking shoe. The embossed leather lays nicely next to the black suede. The yellow label on the tongue really stands out. These shoes make a nice casual dress shoe.

There are several High versions in the line, that combine premium and texture leathers, suede, prints and other unique elements.

The Desert Commando, pictured above, is dominated by smooth black leather but also has a camouflage element and some red accents.

Brownin is a very nice brown colorway that blends in dark brown croc embossed leather with smooth brown leather and some yellow touches.

The S.O.Special Ops is a black and olive color combination that is sure to please. The leather looks rich and supple.

Putty features a putty color suede throughout most of the shoe combined with olive accents and burgundy trim.

My favorite shoe in the pack is Black Bird, which combines black patent and smooth leather for a very good looking shoe. I love that the outersole is off white rather than black, which would have left his shoe too plain. The trim around the top of the shoe is a tiny black and off white check pattern with the dual color laces come in the same shades.

Look for the Greedy Genius Priviledge Collection to be rolling out at Greedy Genius retailers very soon.

At the end, the guy buys a pair of Greedy Genius shoes. It’s pretty great to see a high profile commercial (it was shown during the Pats-Colts game) featuring the sneaker culture. The commerical was shot by Chris Robinson of Robot Film Company, who also directed ATL.

The crew built sets of all the stores with plenty of details. Check the pictures on the next page from the set.

Greedy Genius is introducing the Southwest Pack - the first pack in their Fall Collection.

These shoes features vivid colors and art of the New Mexico and Native American culture. In this collection are eight different styles, including several new models Greedy Genius launched in summer including Cool Breeze, Harbor Master and Skips.  These sneakers will be shipping soon to authorized stores.

Out of the eight styles, the ones I like the most are those pictured above - Gym Class. They feature a variety of textures, including a silver metallic lined leather, black and yellow smooth grained leather, and maroon tweed trim. I also really like the use of the two-color laces in black and maroon.

Check the next page for pictures of the other seven styles. If you like black shoes, check out the Rogue.

The word is that Greedy Genius and Famous Stars & Straps will be unveiling a new shoe in limited release near the end of the year.

These shoes, designed by Travis Barker, feature black leather with a contrasting toe cap and heel. On the heel, the Greedy Genius logo is lasered in white.

This collaboration is all about the texture and it looks pretty sweet. The red toe is perforated, while the body of the shoe is in a luxurious embossed leather. But that’s not all, the heel area of the shoe features glossy black leather with the FSAS pattern in white print. 

We will give you more details on these shoes as they come available.

The last themed sneaker Greedy Genius released was dedicated to Las Vegas; this summer it will be to South Beach, as you can see with the South Beach Phantom kicks above. Some of you have been asking what the Greedy brand has been up to lately; Brandon of GG recently told me personally that Greedy Genius has busy working on more products due to release this summer, starting with these shoes.

These Phantom sneaks feature a South Beach embroidery on the heel, premium leather, and a free matching pair of GG socks; all seen in the pictures below. These limited shoes were released a couple of days ago in select stores, so it might be a bit diffucult to get your hands on a pair. Take a look at the other pictures inside, and let us know what you think. Enjoy!

Here is the latest model from Greedy Genius that is soon to drop. This model is so cleverly named “Hi-Top” being a Hi-top shoe. It is in the Miami colorway that work for the summer when it will become available in June. The shoe mixes up the materials with patent leather, suede, and some vinyl. Let me be the first to say that these are some ugly shoes. If however you like expensive ugly shoes you can check these out at stores like: Attic in San Diego or S&D in Brooklyn.
