The Adidas Original fam have bought you another camo-tacular Superstar II colour-way in the form of the ‘Desert Camo’.

Fresh to death as ever, The Superstar II silhouette holds a Desert Camo upper with white shell toe and sole. The black laces and black leather back really compliment the classic black 3 stripes. This shoe also holds a bit more of a premium taste with a tan/brown Adidas logo on the tongue.

Check out some more detailed images below…

Check your nearest Adidas Originals retailer for more information on when and where to cop these in the UK or check out Kinetics Tokyo. If you do manage to cop these, make sure you instagram / tweet a pic tagging #bigeyeslittlesoles into it!

Peace & Love sneakerheads!

All Black Everything

Posted on by

If you know me, you’ll usually see me wearing all or mostly black… I just think it suits me better. Maybe it’s a sign of my ‘fashion sense’ maturing, who knows!

When these released, I was worried they wouldn’t be available for any of us smaller footed ladies… However, if you’re a UK 5.5 and up.. THEY ARE! (Unfortunately, I don’t fall into that category – iD possibly?)

 

Nike Air Max 1 Premium ‘Black/Anthracite’



With the all black upper in various textures, this shoe totally speaks for itself. I’ll let it do the talking! All I can say is, WHY AREN’T THESE BEING RELEASED IN MY LITTLE SIZE?!

Jordan Spiz’ike Black/University Gold

Posted on by
Reply

So tomorrow (8th December) see’s the release of the Jordan Spiz’ike in a fresh colourway, Black/University Gold (which will also be a GS release so good news for little feet)!

The shoe carries a smooth black suede base with patent leather cement elements around the toe and on the side of the heel. University gold highlights the eyelets, Jumpman logo and the gold stitching to really make them POP!

Sleek and sophisticated. That’s my anatomy of these Spiz’ikes.

Most of us are very familiar with the inspiration behind the Spiz’ike, but for those who need enlightening…. the Jordan Spiz’ike shoe is inspired by Director Spike Lee’s Mars Blackmon commercials for Nike in the 90′s. The Spiz’ike combines a few  iconic elements of the Jordan III, IV, V, VI and XX to make this beauty.

Seein as it’s my birthday tomorrow, I can’t think of a better release to bless my day with :)

They will be available directly from Nike.com from the 8th of December (tomorrow!) so go check it and cop yourself a pair of black magic!

Follow @BigEyesLilSoles on Twitter for more info and updates on up and coming releases! Also if you manage to cop a pair of these, be sure to tweet us a pic or tag us on instagram @bigeyeslittlesoles!

Yani’s NYC Kicks Pick Ups

Posted on by
Reply

I’ve recently got back from New York and Miami and after dealing with the post holiday blues I thought I’d show you the kicks I picked up!

I didn’t go mad as my plans were to spend most of my money on food so here they are!

Nike Air Max 95 GS ‘Cool Grey/Cool Grey-Volt-Black’

Vans Sk8-Hi ‘Black/Black’

I definitely ended up with two pairs of shoes from opposite ends of the spectrum! The Air Max 95s are in a colourway I’d not seen over in the UK and the grey suede upper is so soft it drew me in instantly.. To top it all off, the volt outsole, laces, sock liner and branding made this shoe stand out for MILES! Not only did they massively accentuate my tan by the end of the holiday but people stared at them wherever I went! I love these 95s!

Now onto the SK8-His. It seems that every time I buy a pair of SK8-His the main colour of their upper is black. Don’t ask me why but I guess it’s just a running theme! These may seem plain and boring compared to the 95s BUT I think they look amazing with everything: dresses, skirts, shorts, jeans… EVERYTHING!

One thing I noticed whilst in America is not only that way more girls were wearing trainers and that Jordan’s are the shoe of choice for most sneaker heads out there.. But that there’s just so much more choice for those of us with smaller feet.

Anyway.. what I want to know is.. What kicks have you copped lately?

Let us know on Instagram @bigeyeslittlesoles and Twitter @bigeyeslilsoles!

BIG love, YaniLDN x

Levi’s x Nike SB Dunk Low

The Levi’s x Nike SB Dunk Low’s are looking fresh to death! Flexin’ a black on black exterior, the shoe uses a canvas /denim look base with small flourishes of red over the Levi’s heel branding. Additional details include a co-branding insole and anther burst of red across the outsole making these look sleek and smart! Click the link at the bottom of the post for the Levi’s x Nike webpage and check out the specially created jeans and jacket for the collaboration, dope!

Demand for these are HOT with sneaker heads as they sold out pretty much straight away in NOTE Skate shop, Manchester. You can use the Levi’s store locator to find your nearest Levi’s x Nike SB distributor.

Also – I recommend you check out the Levi’s x Nike website, In the mean time, check out the Levi’s x Nike Skateboarding video.

Peace & <3

Adidas Campus Vulc ‘Chewy’

Adidas skateboarder Chewy Canon has earned his stripes! After skating for Adidas for some time, Pro rider Chewy has made his mark on the brand with his colour-way of the Campus Vulc’s.


With a black suede upper and yellow heels, 3 leather white stripes and sockliners the Chewy Campus Vulc rides a gum vulc sole making them a show stopper in skate shoes, they really do look the part (in my eyes) no skate shoe is compete without a gum sole!

The Vulcanized sole construction, geo fit ankle collar and uprated inner sole makes these skate shoes comfortable and durable for all those long days catching clips.

Official release will be on 29th September with a launch party in Liverpool. You can cop these from retailers like NOTE Skate Shop in Manchester or if your not local, off their website www.noteshop.co.uk

Check out Chewy Canon’s section from the Adidas Skateboarding Diagonal team video released in May 2009. DOPE STUFF!

Peace yo!
