Nike Womens Air Scandal Medal Pack

Nike Womens Air Scandal Medal Pack - #1

The Nike Vandal gets a little slimmer to create the Scandal – a high top sneaker for women.

This shoe comes in two colorways – black and white. These sneakers for the ladies features a satin-like upper and a medal tone Swoosh. The white shoe has a bronze Swoosh, while the black version has gold. These represent the Olympic medals.

These shoes are available right now at Caliroots. With so many shoes coming out to celebrate the Olympics, it’s nice to see some for women too. If things go as they normally do, there’s probably a silver Swoosh version out there somewhere too. Via Hypebeast.

Nike Dunk Gyrizo BMX Pack

Nike Dunk Gyrizo BMX Pack - #1

We first told you about these Nike BMX shoes a while back, now they are finally available with four different colorways making up the Nike Dunk Gyrizo BMX Pack.

In celebration of BMX being in the Olympics for the first time, Nike created these Dunks which are perfect for BMX riding with their straps and cleat-like soles.

The colorways range from a basic black model with a gold Swoosh to a red version with a yellow sole and laces. Personally, my favorite is the red and white colorway, which uses great fading and textures. You can get these now at Nikestore for $100.

Nike Hyperdunk – Kobe PE

Nike Hyperdunk - Kobe PE #1

With the Olympics right around the corner, shoe companies are releasing the shoes that will be featured in Beijing. These Nikes are the kicks that Kobe Bryant will wear for Team USA as he attempts to help the United States reclaim the gold in 2008. In 2004, Argentina won the gold medal in Mens Basketball.

These shoes look extremely slick and should be a hit once the Olympics begin and Kobe, arguably one of the biggest names in all of the Olympic sports, begins to dominate the competition. Number ten, Kobe’s Team USA number, is featured prominently on these shoes. There is also a Team USA logo on the inside of the shoe and a Kobe logo on the tongue of the shoe.
