Nike Air Bakin ‘Ripstop’

Nike’s Air Bakin is set to drop in the material of the moment, Ripstop. It seems as if loads of sneakers are getting a make over that includes the lightweight nylon material and for this one they chose to use the textured material in a vibrant blue peeking from underneath black suede. Red contrast colored stitching is found along the base of the sneaker as well as the visible air sole. We are still waiting to find out when these release but stay tuned for more pictures and information.

Jack Purcell Premium Johnny Brown $110

ack Purcell’s silhouette is already associated with premium quality so the Jack Purcell Premium Johnny comes off as slightly redundant. The implied sense of luxury is cranked up a notch by the use of premium leathers and rawhide laces making this one special sneaker. A White outsole finishes this model off and if you can’t find it at any local retailers it is available now at the Converse website for $110.

Whether Kobe Bryant will be playing in the U.S. or overseas is still yet to be determined. However, if the “Black Mamba” does return, he will most likely be wearing a Laker uniform and this particular Nike Zoom Kobe VI White/Purple-Yellow colorway. This pair, which was debuted last month, features a white snakeskin upper that is complimented with purple and yellow accents throughout, and is finished off with speckled yellow on purple laces.
