I Have a Problem. I am Addicted to Kicks.
Look what premiered in Hawaii today exclusively at In4mation, the Hawaii/Pele Dunks SB.
The new box.

The Pele insole.

The shoe.

The Hawaiian flag and the Big Island.

Patent leather.

Clear soles.

The Big Island.

Hawaii’s own.

Less than $100. Sold out. Yes, I admit it. I have a problem. I am addicted to kicks.
Money, Money! It’s Gotta be the Shoes!
As Mars Blackman said, “It’s gotta be the shoes!” Relive the Air Jordans released over the years at the updated Jumpman23 site.
Ah, such memories. During my playing days, I’ve had the the Air Jordan I, IV, VIII, XI, XIII, and XVIII. I wanna be like Mike
Nike iD a Pair of Air Max
Nike continues to promote its Air Max history. The Nike Air site is now complete with the release of the Air Max 360. Even more interesting though, is the availability of popular Air Max shoes at Nike iD.
Yes, you can now custom design your own Air Max 1, Air Max 90, Air 180, Air Max 93 (2/23), Air Max 95 (3/9), Air Max 97 (3/23), and Air Max 03 (3/23). Hmmmm, the funky looking but favorite Air Max 95 available in March…
New NBA Season Means Lots of New Kicks!
Since the 2005-2006 NBA season started, a whole lot of kicks have been released. Foot Locker had a bunch of new stuff like…
| Dwyane Wade’s signature shoe, Converse Men’s Wade (boring name). Bold design. Not bad for the price. |
| Tracy McGrady’s signature shoe, adidas Men’s T-MAC 5. Probably the most interesting of the signature shoes. Kinda Vick-like in appearance with the strap. |
| Allen Iverson’s signature shoe, Reebok Men’s Answer IX Pump (crazy Limited Edition shown). Why are AI’s shoes always so heavy? You’d think a guard wants light shoes to maintain that quickness. Though probably the best shoe in the Answer line. |
| Jordan Retro XIV (men’s and women’s). Many colorways of the XIV are coming out. Waiting for the black and carolina blue next year. |
The boot-like Lebron James’ signature shoe, Nike Zoom Lebron III, doesn’t drop until November 17.

Kicks Old School Flashback

No, I won’t be getting these, just reminiscing . Never did own a pair of Vans. Hmmm, if I had to guess, I would say Wayne’s World and T rocked the original Vans??

Diamonds are NOT Forever
Kanye West may be rhymin’ that diamonds are forever, but it ain’t so for this OG. Decided to sell my Tiffany Diamond Dunks on eBay, and a shoehead in NY won the prize.
One more look at my precious…

Crazy Week for Kicks Pickups
Was a crazy week for picking up new kicks. First up, I managed to get a hold of a pair of Tiffany Diamond Dunks and Zoom Team Editions. Then Gung Gung Chung wanted new court shoes to dominate the Badminton League for Retired Chinese in Hawaii (BLRCH). Hey, just in time for the Footlocker Friends & Family sale! Picked out two possibilities, the ultra performance Nike Air Zoom Huarache 2K5 (Kobe’s signature shoe) and the clearance RBK Afronaut (the Afronaut?!?).
All in all, a good week but would’ve been ever better if I found some Jordan P-Rods. More pics of the pickups.
Nike Vapor Dunks
Another new Nike SB release, the Vapor Dunks, looks funky but ain’t too bad when seen up close. Not sure if they’re still available from in4mation or Kicks HI. At least you can get these at a reasonable price unlike the hype driving up the costs of the Tiffany Diamond Dunks.
