Just as Nike SB finally decides to release the famous Gucci Dunk Hi’s , Nike Sportswear is planning to release their own version. This Supreme version is quite similar to the Premium SB version except for some little things. The SB version uses denim on the black parts while this version uses an Ostrich-like material, like that on the Premium Infrared 90s that re released last year. Other exotic leathers are used throughout the shoe. Lastly swap out the green sole for the always-popular gum sole and your set. Rumor is this shoe is a part of the Nike East vs. West collection that Eddie Cruz and DJ Clark Kent worked on. This Dunk is scheduled to release in October of this year. VIA: Footlocker Unlocked

Gucci-esque Nike Air Force Ones

August 23rd, 2008 by nkats Stored in: Air Force Ones, Custom Sneakers, Nike

Ups-N-Comin has released a new pair of custom Nike Air Force Ones called “Gucci-esque” at the Nike Talk post linked here. The designer feels that custom sneaker artists should be able to transform sneakers into high-end products before they can advance to bigger challenges. The “Gucci-esque” idea has been done by other artists in the past but Ups-N-Comin brings his own flavor to these shoes.

The original Air Force One used by Ups-N-Comin featured a tan/white/blue colorway that is neutral enough for most sneaker fans. Ups-N-Comin added sophisticated touches like golden swooshes and a metal “Ups-N-Comin” tag that would not be out of place on a pair of Gucci sneakers.

I am a fan of the color changes employed by the designer on the “Gucci-esque” Air Force Ones. He switched out the tan for white and the off-white for blue to create a fantastic shoe that would look great in any situation. The design, finishing and overall execution of these Air Force Ones proves that the veteran Ups-N-Comin is at the pinnacle of his ability.
