Chloe Ws Latest Pickups.

Recently I’ve bought a few new pairs of trainers; Nike Air Max 1 Engineered Mesh ‘City Pack’ and both of the Nike Huarache OG retros.

Nike AM1 Engineered Mesh:
IMG_0457 I bought these on a bit of a whim. I had some left over Christmas money and saw these in Size? and just went for it without really deciding on whether I liked them or not. It’s taken a while but I’ve definitely come round to really liking this pair. The leather mudguard is really good quality, much better than I have seen on a lot of the recent Air Max 1 releases. The shape is also a lot better than most of the recent releases, and I can’t resist a speckled sole!

Nike Huarache LE ‘OG’ Retro:
IMG_0573
IMG_0572 I’m just really not sure on whether I’m particularly bothered about these huaraches. Maybe I’ll come round to them soon, I just think that the stitching is really off in places, which makes them look cheap. There’s also some glue marks in areas – think i’ll use them for beaters!

I also picked these huaraches up a while back at the beginning of February. Gonna clean them up really good and give them to my boyfriend. Another great eBay bargain!

Chloe’s Latest Pick-ups

Last week was a really good week for me in terms of finding myself some real bargains:

OG 1992 Deadstock Nikes – I don’t really know much about the history of this model, however I couldn’t pass on a pair of OG’s in such good condition for less than £20. The sole has yellowed slightly which is expected of a trainer that is nearly as old as me!

Nike Huarache LE – The strap on one of my ‘royal’ huarache LE’s recently broke so I have been on the look for a replacement pair. I am still yet to find another pair in the blue/white colour way, but when this yellow/white colour way came up on eBay in my size I thought I would treat myself. Another bargain considering the demand for huaraches has risen massively as of late driving the prices up to a ridiculous level.

Yani’s Latest Pick Ups

Over the past month or so I’ve managed to get my hands on some perfect Summer sneaks.

Check them out!

Nike WMNS Air Max 1 ‘Fast Love’ ‘Sport Red/Sail-Sail’
I have a feeling some people were getting this release confused with the Liberty release and I can see why, however, the print is very different, as is the upper of the shoe.
The Sail midsole isn’t as yellowed/vintage and the upper consists of suede and canvas. These AM1s will round off my usual Summer staple of light denim jeans/short and a marl tee, perfectly!

Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro ‘White/Military Blue-Neutral Grey’
I wasn’t sure I’d like this release on me but after I tried them on, I fell in love. Along with my 6′s and my black/cement 3′s, these are my favourite Jordans (that I own). I wore them on a trip last weekend and couldn’t stop looking down. They just look so clean and the blue makes them so bright and stand out. I love them!

Nike WMNS Air Huarache LE ‘White/Voltage Yellow-Net Grey’
I’ve been looking for a replacement pair of Huaraches as my 1990′s pair are very close to being unwearable and then these popped up on eBay! I just had to get them and luckily enough, I did!
It’s like walking around with sunshine on your feet. I wore them to work last week and smiled the entire time! Comfortable, light and super Summery!

SPOTTED!!

Word up peeps!

So I was at work last Thursday and I spotted some serious heat on my colleague’s feet that I had to share with y’all.

Here are Adam T’s Nike Air Huarache Light Burst Safari Pack in Olive/Black…

6976144123_f45daaf292

These kicks are absolute beasts and the olive on black is very reminiscent of Supreme releases from the last few seasons. Wish I could find these beauties in sizes for mini-feet.

Peace and love,

Viva Calypso

Yes yes y’all!

With Spring now upon us, it’s time for the S/S Nike releases to start flooding out.

Here we have the latest Huarache colour way, Light Bone/Soft Grey/Calypso. These are hands down my favourite colourway of all the Huarache Free 2012 releases so far, the teal/turquoise colour is gorgeous and really reminiscent of an OG Nike release. The soft neutral tones are lifted by the hint of colour through the side and bank panels, making for a very well put together colourway indeed. Although I’m not all that keen on the free sole, I think these babies more than make up for any reservations I may have and these will be a surefire cop for me.

Cop yours from End on pre-order now, or from your regional Nike retailers in April!

Peace and love,

Tash
