OOSH! Look at these beauties – these are definitely ones for the true sneakerheads!
To celebrate 10 years since Supreme’s first collaboration with Nike SB, the dynamic duo have teamed up again to bring you these babies. Inspired by all things Nike and all things FRE$H, these Nike SB Dunk Lows represent Supreme to the fullest as well as paying homage to this heavenly collaboration.
The ‘Supreme X Nike SB Dunk Low’ comes to us presented in the classic BRED (black and red for those of you who arn’t familiar with the term, and if you’re not, slap yourself now!) with the ever so popular elephant print, inspired by the Jordan III’s. If you copped the 2 other pairs of Supreme x Nike Dunk Lows, you’ll know that they are considered one of the best SB’s of all time, but I think these are probably going to tip the scale.
Available from Supreme’s stores in London, New York & Los Angeles as well as the on-linestore TODAY (or 21st for all our visitors reading from Japan)!
These are going to be hot hot hot to get hold of, so if anyone gets a cop, be sure to tweet to @BigEyesLilSoles and instagram tag #bigeyeslittlesoles so we can see em’!
So with spring in full effect, I thought why not start off the fresh month of April with a sweet treat!
As some of you may have guessed from my name ‘Lemon Cake’, I like cake, ALOT! I did do a ‘Little Lemon Cakery’ blog last year but the cakes all got too much to juggle with the rest of my life! So for now, that side of my life is dormant but I still enjoy baking at weekends, for friends birthdays, occasions and looking at other peoples amazing creations!
Here I have collated a list of my favourite sneaker related cakes from over the last couple of years for you guys to enjoy….
MJ’s JORDAN IV BIRTHDAY CAKE
Perhaps the oldest Sneaker Cake in the history of sneaker cakes, was Michael Jordan’s Air Jordan 4 Cake that was presented to him by his Madukes and Pops back in 89′! (source)
TIFFANY NIKE SB DUNK BIRTHDAY CAKE
Sneakerhead Matt Jae from LA celebrated in fashion in December 2011 with an incredibly accurate Nike ‘Tiffany’ SB replica cake! My personal favourite SB too! (source)
AIR JORDAN 11 BLACK/RED GROOM’S WEDDING CAKE
Now this one has to be my absolute favourite! It was made my Texas based Sandia Horng aka @WhiskThis and this was actually her first ever sneaker cake, can you believe it!
“The Bride wanted to surprise her fiancée Mike with an awesome Grooms Cake for their wedding and came up with this idea. She said that this was Mike’s absolute favorite sneaker! We talked about several concepts but in the end she gave me full trust on the whole design. So I made an Air Jordan sneaker shoe box along with the shoe to display in front of the box.” – Sandia Horng
She is a really talented lady so make sure you check her blog out here! source
Nike Air Foamposite One “Dark Neon Royal” & ‘Galaxy’ Birthday Cakes
Feast your eyes pon’ deez! I had to look a few times and check that this actually was a cake because it looks so close to the real thing its scary! (source)
Galaxy
And again another Foamposite but this time in the form of the recently hyped ‘Galaxy’. These also look too real to be edible! As a fellow baker, I know I need work on my icing modelling techniques, and I’d LOVE to know how to create the galaxy print effect!
I dont know about you but I’d love to dig into this French vanilla flavoured freshness, made by ‘Made Fresh Daily Cakes’
Enjoy your cake with a slice of Farma G & tweet us your sneaker cakes to @bigeyeslilsoles!
After seeing the recent ‘Bordeaux’ Spiz’ike release in February and the Knicks colourways in November 2011, were in for another Spike Lee inspired treat this year!
The ‘Raging Bull’ pack presents the classic Red/Black colourway that seems to making more than one Retro appearance this year!
I particularly like the black details, not forgetting the classic cement feature and the soft grey on the eyelets and lining on the inside.
I love these, Red is my favourite colour and will go with everything in my wardrobe. Red/Black/White is my bread and butter! These babies are definaly going to go down a storm with Bulls fans!
Keep following Big Eyes for news including when and where to cop these!
2012 sees the return of the Air Jordan IV ‘Bred’ Black / Red which happens to be my second favourite Jordan! The swish black and red colourway with the grey midsole & eyelets and black netting make this Jordan a PURE CLASSIC! Set to release on ‘Black Friday’ 2012 (November)
ON TOP OF THAT… we’ve been hearing rumors flying around that the Air Jordan XI Black/Red could be hitting the shelves in December! Now this IS exciting, so get saving because November/December 2012 could potentially be expensive months!
