Big Daddy Black Sheep

Posted on by

There’s a new sneaker store in Manchester City centre!

You may remember back in October I posted some news, bringing you a new sneaker / skate shop to sunny old Stockport… Well now The Black Sheep have just opened another store in the centre of Manchester!

Located conveniently between Dr. Hermans and Bench in the Northern Quarter, right where the Vans store used to be. The Black Sheep store bring shoe styles like; DC, Fallen, Etnies, Supra, Vans and clothing Brands such as Diamond x Grizzly, Heel Bruise, Neff, Primitive, Dephect and more.

Being 1 of 7 stores in the entire country to stock the Vans Syndicate range makes the store definitely one to visit, for your Syndicate cops!

Sunday 5th May held the mighty, Big Daddy Kane appearance in store for the opening day! It was a great day, full of pretty sneaker wearing girls, skaters, friends and the rest of the street. Performances from Dr. Syntax and Shotty Horrah warmed up the Mic before Big Daddy Kane stepped into the shop, kicked a freestyle for the old school heads and then had a one-on-one interview with Televised.

Here’s a few photos from the day! Shouts to Prankin Photography & C M Taylor Photography for the images below.

Shouts to Televised & The Black Sheep, go follow on Instagram and Facebook.

Peace and Love!

Big eyes, really really little soles…. Now this is one for the teenie tiny feet, so Mum’s and Dad’s break out the wallet for the coolest kicks your toddler will ever wear!

I know a lot of girls and guys are going to be jealous because these aren’t for feet any bigger than a Kids UK10…. but I found these too damn cute to resist sharing with you! Man how I wish I was toddler size 4-10….

A good one for any Mum’s lookin’ to step up their baba’s sneaker game. I know if I was a toddler with monkies, panda’s and dinosaurs on my feet I would have been dancing before I was walking.

You Can cop these on sale at any Vans Store or online at www.blacksheepstore.co.uk…. man  I wish I had tiny baby feet! There are also a few more animal style-ways for spring 2013 including a black panther and a zebra! So, so dope.

Mama’s and Papa’s instagram / tweet a picture of your toddler in these if you have em’! instagram: @bigeyeslittlesoles / twitter: @bigeyeslilsoles would be great to see em’ in action.

Peace & Love!

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.

Nike SB x Skate Mental Dunk Hi LR “Rollerblades”

Heads up fruit-booters……

The lovely folks over at Nike SB certainly aren’t slowing down their collaborations for 2013! They have teamed up with the ‘Skate Mental’ for an unique take on the Dunk Hi LR.

The entirely white upper is complete with inline skate graphics (no particular brand, just a standard UFS frame). The midsole has the wheels emblazoned on either side and the heel gets a dab of embossing with the Skate Mental brand name. Even the strap resembles a rollerblade strap!

Check out some more detailed images below! A definite pick up for any rollerblader to have on their wall.

Will you be picking up these Dunk LR’s? They are set to arrive this month in select stockists worldwide. Let us know what you think! tag us into your pics if you cop these #bigeyeslittlesoles

Peace & Love from a fellow rollerblader!

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!

Shop the Jordan Collection on Nike.com here.

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!
