And so they’ve dropped… the Bred 11s…

Just thought I’d do a little post in honour of them as they are a serious sneaker!

Get them now from Nike in sizes small enough for our little soles, a steal at £95!

Go on, treat yourself, it’s Christmas!

Jordan Spiz’ike Black/University Gold

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!

Shop the Jordan Collection on Nike.com here.

Peace & Love!

Jordan Spiz’ike Inspired Skates

USD is the first Skate manufacturer who produce only Aggressive Skates starting in 1997! With their innovations they become a leader in the Aggressive Skating world. Carrying names on their team like Nick Lomax, Billy O’Neil, Richie Eisler & Franky Morales makes USD one of the strongest skate teams in the industry!

USD Carbon III Franky Morales

Franky Morales loves the USD Carbons, and loves his sneaks! So when given the opportunity to create a pro skate to his own specifications, he choose to mix a pair of his favourite treads, the Jordan Spiz’ike ‘Boardeaux’ with a pair of USD Carbon 3′s, this is what he came up with!

Take a look at the resemblance!

If your keen to skate these, you can buy them from USD retailers like Grindhouse!

Check out this edit of Franky!

Air Jordan IV – GS Release

Check out this dope GS release of the Air Jordan IV, exclusively for the little feet out there. With my last AJ4 purchase being the Ultraviolet GS release, I think there is definitely room amongst my other Js for these beasts!

I love how the highlighted dynamic blue and vivid pink elements of this colourway pop against the black nubuck upper of these true beauties. For me, although the neon sockliner, eyelets, outsole, lacing and branding combination come together to make these sneakers stand out initially, it’s the pink-on-black speckled midsole that catches your eye second, making your heart melt slightly and helping complete these absolute treats!

I cannot wait for these babies to get in my life! As always, make sure you keep it Big Eyes Little Soles for details of the drop.

Send your sneaker snaps to us on Instagram @BigEyesLittleSoles, Twitter @BigEyesLilSoles or Facebook Big Eyes Little Soles, using the #BigEyesLittleSoles tag and you may be featured in our next hashtag post…

Safe!
