Nike Blazer AC High LE Red Velcro + Nike Blazer Low ND Lucky Green


The Nike Blazer has enjoyed a banner year in 2009 and expansions of its classic design will continue to accumulate. The highs pictured above are done in red and black leather and have velcro straps instead of laces. A low cut pair sticks with laces and opts to contrast ripstop nylon with full grain leather, all in green. Grab the green ones or the red pair today before their spring 2010 release in sample sizes from Osneaker.(Via Sneaker News!)

I like the green ones but I'm not sure how i feel about the velcro straps, hmm.

I Throw Up On Paper...

Ashly


Spoken Word Piece # 1 -
I throw up on paper//
regurgitating rhyme and reason that will touch you in your heart//
make love to your soul//
tickle your intellect //
question your understanding//
change the way you view things//
I'm not just a poet up here claiming to be a revolutionary//
Because that would deem me hypocritical//
There are still things that I have to change within myself before I try to change the world.
Like, sometimes I hold my tongue when I know I should speak//
I fear large crowds and being too social, so I always settle for being around a circle of friends//
I will not walk up to you and introduce myself//
I don't cook or eat healthy//
I hate water & things with no taste//
I make banana pudding without bananas//
A walking, talking oxymoron//
I still have a lot of learning & growing to do//
All these things and more make me a very average human//
I won't stand up here and claim to be perfect//
I can be a bitch at times and yes, on purpose//
But, I know how to come back down to earth and be the sweetest person//
I'm a gemini, let me elaborate//
A sign that will have me hurting your feelings and apologizing in the same sentence//
One part of me doesn't give a shit//
The other cares too much//
Creative//
Witty//
Inconsistent//
Selfish//
All this wrapped into one//
It's hard to find someone to put up with my ever changing moods//

"A sign that will have me hurting your feelings and apologizing in the same sentence"<3

[cap]tured -
I'm the one you see and wonder [if]too scared to approach me and find [out]. I epitomize the feelings that you [expect] when you press [send message]. I'm the anticipation you feel when you see those shoes on the shelf, then ask for your [size.] I'm the [chase], only to find out that you were captured. I am the headlin[her]. I am the [16] bars that so pleasantly flow perfectly over the beat your heart makes. Got [too] close [too] quick; now we find eachother stagnant, both [too] afraid to make the next move. So, we choose to watch each[other] from the safe zone. Every woman you [expect]ed to know. But, didn't [expect] to find her here.
The timing [could]n't be more terrible, the location [could]n't be worse. So what do we do when faced with so many [ob]stacles. Run! Turn around, and run as fast as we can, [not] worrying about turning back. But, like some sort of [magnet]ic force I'm sending you another message, anticipating the inbox [1] or the orange light-up on my message box. Now we're back to square [1]. The possibilities of what this friendship can spark seem to be [end]less. One in fear of being hurt, and the other afraid of doing the [hurt]ing. Nevertheless, there is some sort of [attract]ion between the two that makes it impossible for the strings not to become [attatch]ed.

Nike Blazer High Premium ND: Black & Purple -Laser Etched


Laser-etched ABCs are here to stay. So says Nike with this latest release of Blazer Mid Premium NDs. These go hard in black, a mix of leather and suede contrasted by a white midsole-toe. Purple laces reinforce its dark leanings, but there’s a twinkle in the black that deserves another look. Though the characters are etched in dark purple, they really liven up and add brightness to this design.(Via Sneaker News)

Nike SB Blazer - 7 Ply Custom - Michael Lau Dunk Inspired

Customizer, Brad Douglas, reveals his new custom in the form of a Blazer SB. Named “7-Ply” to reference the skateboard inspiration, the shoe’s characteristics imply that which is vital to skaters. The upper features lasered wood grain leather- a similar look to the Michael Lau Gardener Dunk SB’s- along with grip tape as accents. The heel tabs, which typically sports the NIKE embroidery, have been altered to look like a board where truck hardware is attached. Not only a crisp and clean job evident of attention to detail, but a great concept relevant to the skate community as well as the shoe chosen itself.(Via Sneaker News)

&
Nike Blazer High - Black - Cherrywood - Illustrated

The Nike Blazer design concepts just keep getting crazier and crazier. This latest Blazer High sports one of the most creative and ambitious designs yet. The shoe features a completely illustrated upper that flaunts various colors and drawings, including the actual Swoosh. To balance out the colorful shades of red, pink and purple, the kicks also use some white highlights and a healthy dose of black on the toe box, midsole and laces, as well as the outlines around the drawings on the upper.(Via Sneaker News)
(I don't know about these tho, lol)

Converse Skateboarding (CONS) CTS High - Perf Leather


The Converse Skateboarding line has quietly been winning over a lot of sneakerheads lately with their revamped spins on some classic Converse styles. This CONS CTS High model takes the iconic Chuck Taylor High and gives it a nice premium leather look that is also built to skate in as well thanks to some extra padding. Aside from the tonal leather uppers, you’ll notice that the entire leather sections are covered by a perforation pattern, improving breathability and adding a stylish elelment to the look of the shoe. For starters, the CONS CTS High Perf will be available in black and white colorways, both with solid uppers and white midsoles. Keep an eye out for these at select CONS retailers during the Spring/Summer 2010 season.(Via Sneaker News)

Jeremy Scott x Adidas - JS 3 Tongue Attitude



When it comes to bold, creative sneaker designs, look no further than Jeremy Scott’s latest creations for adidas. Jeremy has brought back the over-the-top JS 3 Tongue, which puts a daring spin on the classic adidas Attitude High. Two new colorways of the eye-catching kicks are beginning to hit stores. One sports a basic black and yellow color scheme with a white midsole, while the second gets a little wilder if that’s possible. The other JS 3 Tongue colorway features a white leather upper completely covered by a black line pattern that loosely resembles something from a Keith Haring painting. (Via Sneaker News)


I'm not a fan of the colors but I thought the triple tongue was interesting so..
