Another GS 90!

2012 really has been a good year for sneaker pick ups but a bad year for my bank account!

This release, now available from Shelta will definitely make a dent in my wallet but leave me with smiling feet!

Nike Air Max 90 GS ‘Neutral Grey/Blue/Volt’
I hate the ever changing weather in London and having a leather upper on a shoe makes life so much easier as they wipe clean in an instant. The upper on this release is made entirely from leather and the grey accents are totally offset by the white Swoosh and branding, the Volt air unit and of course the blue outsole. These are four Colours I wouldn’t normally put together but in this instance, they look just right!

From above, the shoe looks muted and toned down but to those walking next to or behind you, it will be a totally different story!

Get yours now from Shelta.

Lemon’s Latest Pickups…

Been feeling a bit secluded so I thought I’d treat myself to a bit of retail therapy (you know it works wonders)!

First off I got the Air Jordan I Phats Black/Siren Red.

You all know I’m a Jordan freak, so for me these are a modern twist on a Jordan classic! Not too far away from its OG Daddy the Air Jordan I black/red (BRED) which has a massive history in the basketball and sneaker game.

Secondly I managed to finally get me some Nike x Liberty Sky Hi Dunks!

I missed the AM1 hype on release day and due to being skint I was unable to get me a pair but I have settled for it’s slightly more feminine cousin with concealed wedge. These do look a bit odd at first glance I’ll admit, however don’t judge a book buy it’s cover! These babies are soooooo god damn comfortable, you cant even tell there’s a wedge in there(coming from a girl who cant walk in heels)! These are defiantly going to come in handy for the slightly more…. dressed events. I know I’m going to be too scared to wear them though!

Have you copped anything recently? Let us know via Twitter @bigeyeslilsoles or tag your instagram photos #bigeyeslittlesoles /@bigeyeslittlesoles!

Peace & Love little soles! Hope you’re all enjoying this lovely weather!

Air Jordan IV ‘Cavalier’ Drop This Saturday!

So, after much deliberation over the nickname, we can finally reveal the Air Jordan IV ‘Cavalier’ (or ‘CAVS’ for short) are going to be hitting shelves this Saturday 12th May!

For those wondering why the ‘Cavalier’ nickname, it is a tribute to Mike’s infamous shot (otherwise known as ‘The Shot‘) in the 1989 Eastern Confernce First Round which propelled the Chicago Bulls to the second round of the playoffs.

Although the Cleveland Cavaliers’s kit is now more renowned for it’s modern burgundy/gold colour-way, these sneakers play a true homage to the old school white/blue kit from 1989.

Personally I’m really diggin’ the orange accents on these and as most of you Knicks fans know, blue and orange on a pair of Jordans….you can’t go wrong! If you’ve seen any of my previous Jordan posts, you know I could baffle on all day about the Jordan IV silhouette, so you know I have a loving opinion for these babies.

Available this Saturday (12th May) from limited Jordan retailers. I know that the only Footlocker in the UK getting GS sizes is Oxford Street London/House of Hoops, all other sizes available from limited Footlockers across the UK. Make sure you go and reserve yours as not all stores will receive them, and if they do expect limited numbers!

Peace & L<3ve!

UPDATE: Jordan IV Ultraviolet Now Available!

Oh dayam, Nike have dropped another little sole exclusive from the Jordan Brand!

In the form of the classic Jordan IV shell with a quirky 2012 GS purple twist, these babies were made especially and exclusively for little feet (and i know a few big feet that would chop a few toes to fit in these)!

The Air Jordan Retro ‘Ultraviolet’ IV features a classic white leather upper, with ultraviolet splashed across the midsole, the inside and the eyelets to form the theme of the sneaker. Its light blend of soft grey around the toe to set these aside form any other IV. The black speckled wings have got my be my favourite part though, I have a black & purple vest top I’ve made that is a match made in heaven for these beauties!

Available NOW from retailers like Concepts.

2012 is shaping up to be a big year for the Jordan Brand with some dope retro and new releases in the pipeline. Last year we saw the return of the III’s, but this year IV is the magic number!

Peace & Riz!

Purrrrrr… ‘Black Beast’ Leopard AM 1s

Well well well, what do we have here!…

Here we have a little sneak preview of the ‘Leopard Pack’ Nike WMNS AM1′s! And wow are they sexy or what!?

If you know me, you’ll know I am usually a Jordan girl, but you’ll also know that I ADORE animal inspired print, so these are defiantly going to be on my 2012 cop list!

The black suede & nylon base colour really makes the leopard print stand out on the heel, forefoot and on the top lacing tabs. Rolling with an ivory white mid-sole topped off with classic alrming red lining the inside. The white swoosh makes these babies a clear contender for the AM1 hall of fame, especially adopting a nickname such as ‘Black Beast’.

Hearing news these should be hitting shelves around October 2012 but keep it Big Eyes for exact release date and where to buy!

Peace & Cake!

There’s A Pattern Occurring

It’s probably become clear after reading my posts that I’ve got a ‘thing’ for all black (or mostly black) sneakers. I’m not sure whether it’s my tastes maturing or not, but I definitely like my sneakers simple but stand out.
This release is no exception to my love for block colour..

Nike Air Max 90 Premium ‘Black/Black’
With a combination of full and smooth grain premium leathers, this AM90 doesn’t only look tasty on, but is amazing to touch. The different textures really give the impression that this sneaker means business! One addition you might have noticed is the air unit, which isn’t black and in fact has a blue tinge to it. This really sets the bubble apart from the rest of the shoe.. after all it is an Air Max sneaker!
After my recent purchases/gifts of all black Air Max 90s, I’m definitely drooling over these, however I’m not entirely sure they’ll drop in my size.

Bigger size ranges available now at both Shelta and SNS but going down to a US 6 does mean some of our female readers can cop!
