I was just watching Jay-Z and Kanye’s video for their debut tune, Otis from their collaborative album The Throne..
Check out the heat on their feet!!
Kanye is rocking a personal favourite of mine – Nike Air Jordan 6 Black/Infrared and Jay-Z has on the Nike Air Jordan 1 ‘Banned’.
Sick tune, rad footwear and an amazing collaboration! Happy times!
Only just recently launched but already having some sick stock, from AM1′s to Air Jordans, Shoepastar is a new online sneaker store… Possible flight club potential if they put the hours in? Who knows? Check it out anyway! Some real nice sneakers on there!
Check out Sir Skilliam..

Big Love to you Skilliam, thanks for sending me the link and making me laugh so early in the morning!!

Asics is a brand that always has a place in my heart. The Gel Lyte III is a silhouette I think I’ll always be in love with, and sadly never own!
For the SS11 drop, Solehaven gives us a different look at the new releases, in the form of breakdancing. Bad Taste Cru and Floor Gangz Worldwide, show us what they’re made of, to the sounds of Smoove & Turrell. These amazingly talented dancers are rocking the Gel Lytes and GT-IIs, so keep a Big Eye out and let us know what your favourite colourway is.
It’s really good to see people being creative with their lookbooks. We hope to see many more!
This is the truly inspirational video created for the Nike Better World Campaign.
Through this campaign, the internationally respected sports brand are aiming to use sport as a format to end issues such as depression, homelessness, disease, discrimination and environmental problems.
This is the Nike Free TR Fit, a sneaker created especially for us women. This shoe is designed to leave a small environmental footprint by using a rubber that is more friendly to our environment. The Free TR Fit is also made with ‘water-based cementing and recycled polyester’. These two materials in the outsole, work in a way to help us get the most from out work out by imitating the natural movement of the foot. I also really like the look of this shoe, I’d definitely get myself a pair to keep fit in!
Another part of the campaign works toward educating the people of Soweto about HIV and keeping them fit through sport all at the same time! In this area of South Africa, Nike have built a football academy that has so far, helped 20,000 young local aspiring footballers to keep fit and play their favourite game with the highest level of coaching, along with lessons about HIV, how to prevent contracting it and how to deal with it.
There are plenty more amazing sides to the campaign, check them out here. Copy/paste the link to this blog post to all of your friends on facebook/twitter and get everyone involved!
I’m a firm believer that accessories really do make an outfit. And why not accessorize your sneakers?
