Yeah, yeah, we’ve already established I’m not the best at titling posts…

Anyhow… We also know that our friends at Size? always go in on their exclusive releases and I’m sure you can figure out for yourselves that this drop is no exception. This time they’re bringing back another two colourways of an adidas Originals 1992 classic, the Tech Super, as part of the adidas Originals Archive Collection.

Featuring bright colours and fluorescent accents, with a mixture of ultra-soft suede body and subtle 3M panelling, these beauties would make a refreshing addition to any wardrobe.

They are priced at £80 and unfortunately for the littlest Little Soles (including myself, sob), they come in sizes UK6 – UK13. Be quick, because they are available exclusively to Size? from today, online here and from all Size? stores.

Which are you going to cop?! Use #BigEyesLittleSoles and send us your snaps on Instagram @BigEyesLittleSoles, Twitter @BigEyesLilSoles or Facebook Big Eyes, Little Soles.

Bee’s Latest Pick-ups

I popped into Footlocker recently to have a mooch at what goodies they had to offer for my Little Soles. To my delight, not one, not two, but three pairs of Nike Air Max 1 GS were staring me in the face.

I had a dilemma… I wanted them all. After soon realising that actually, this wasn’t such a huge dilemma, I got them all.

I had a spare pair of Reebok x Alife laces, which I think look great teamed with the subtle black-on-black safari print of these summer essentials. The blue accents and outsole of the toe area are a nice bright touch.

I’m not usually a fan of gold, or silver for that matter, on sneakers, but I’ve now figured out that this is because usually they’re metallic. The matte gold swoosh alongside the red accents have made these treats one of my favourite pairs in my collection.

The team orange accents and outsole around the toe area of these beasts made me fall in love with them instantly. Again, the use of a subtle grey-on-grey safari print is present, this time just on the swoosh, giving an extra little pop to an already-great colourway.

The Air Jordan V ‘Grape’ is an original Air Jordan V colorway, which has so far seen one retro release in 2006. Back again for 2013, the Air Jordan V ‘Grape’ is one of the most highly anticipated drops for the heads of the sneaker world this year!

Nike ‘Year Of The Snake’ Pack

Posted on by
Reply

Out to the Little Soles… this one is strictly for you! Nike are continuing to celebrate the Year of the Snake in 2013 with two classic styles released in a striking snake skin theme.

A little insight into the Chinese lunar calendar… it states that those born in the Year of the Snake possess an infatuation with all things beautiful in life; which is clearly a fitting inspiration for this stunning collection. For obvious reasons, I am going to let the photos do the majority of the talking…

First up from the double pack we have one of Nike’s running icons, the Air Max 1:

Secondly is the Nike Dunk Sky Hi; a subtle lift in the heel of this classic court gives a feminine element to the sneaker game:

The pack is available in sizes UK3 – 6 and is available now at select Nike Sportswear locations globally.

If you are lucky enough to cop these we want to know! Keep on tagging your photos #BigEyesLittleSoles and send them to us on Instagram @BigEyesLittleSoles, Twitter @BigEyesLilSoles or Facebook Big Eyes, Little Soles.

I’m in a good mood:

A Treat For Small Feet!

Yooo LADIES (and gentlemen)… For those of you that have been hitting up Big Eyes for a while, you may have noticed that I tend to fall in love with sneakers quiet often. To our new fam, welcome, and this is something you will become familiar with.

When I first saw these online I really wasn’t sure that I’d be keen on the vintage finish of the tongue on both colourways, the pink midsole of the first pair, or the shiny blue coloured leather of the others, but as the AM1 is one of my favourite silhouettes, I decided not to rule them out until I’d seen them in the flesh.

As I stepped inside Wellgosh last week, my eyes lit with joy as I clocked both pairs side by side and I think I actually skipped across the store like an over-excited child to these BEASTS! YES, I DID, I FELL IN LOVE AGAIN, INSTANTLY. The OG Nike label and the almost pearlescent leather give these treats that extra special something that, personally, I adore!

Nike Air Max 1 VNTG WMNS

Available from a UK3 – 6, you can pick these beauties up from our friends at Wellgosh, either instore in Leicester, or on their website here and here.

If you cop these, let us know! Keep on tagging your photos #BigEyesLittleSoles and send them to us on Instagram @BigEyesLittleSoles, Twitter @BigEyesLilSoles or Facebook Big Eyes, Little Soles.

Finally, here is a little musical something for your ears:
