Nike Air Max 1 Sample / Air Force 1 Camo
New sample of the Nike Air Max 1 Special Edition!! This new sample of the Nike Air Max 1 comes in a smooth olive green color with a pink tag on the tongue giving it a burst of color. The toe uses the new foam material like the "Kermit" Dunks that we've introduced before. This is a truly innovative shoe that I'll be looking forward to.
This new Camo Air Force 1 is very nice. With it's sweet camo pattern, it matches your Bathing Ape Camo Jackets very well. As competition between shoe makers grows, Nike adds more details when producing their shoes which in the end is a good thing for us consumers. Details such as the bottom sole of the shoe which also has the camo pattern!! In addition, the inner sole has the camo pattern too!! No lack of details on this shoe!
Full Pictures Here.

Nike is celebrating 20 years of their popular Air Jordans with the release of the Air Jordan XX. The Air Jordan XX will be making it's debut at the NBA All Star Game 2005. The picture of the right is the Lows version of the shoe (Find more about the Hi version 
Saturday is a slow day for updates but I try to bring you something to look at. Here's some very detailed pictures of the Andy Warhol and Lee Quinones from the adidas 35th Anniversary. First the Andy Warhol (#8) takes the color from the NBA team, Los Angeles Lakers. Using Abdul Jabbar's picture and Andy Warhol's style, adidas creates this to commenorate both artist and basketball player. Andy Warhol's works include the "Campbell soup can" and the Marilyn Monroe painting.
This is the Lee Quinones version of the adidas Superstar (#10). Lengendary Lee Quinones is from the New York's graffiti scene and his work had has great effects on the art world. The design of the shoe is inspired by New York's subways and the hip hop scene.
Here are some detailed pics of the adidas Jabber Lo Vintage. This reissue of the original Jabber Lo really brings back the vintage look with the yellow soles and the original colors. On the tongue, there's the original Abdul Jabber logo as well.
New Nike Dunk Hi in black/white color. This simple color scheme is similar to the recent Nike Dunk Hi SB "Ghost". Sometimes keeping it simple maybe better than making things too complicated. This will be an inexpensive shoe as well so you won't have to pay marked up SB prices.
For this new Porter x Essential Designs coin case, strong material is used to make it last through rough use. With the strap included, you can easily attach it to your belt for easy access. This coin case comes in two colors, black and khaki. It's simple colors makes it easy to match your clothes as well.
This new transparent necklace made of acrylic looks pretty sweet. Inside the arcylic case, there's a heart and a tear representing maybe the joys and sadness of love. This accessory could be worn by both men or women or given to your significant other as Valentine nears.
People started lining up early in the morning and in the end, over 200 people stormed into Barneys, hungry for their pair of Nike Kid Robot Air Max 1s. In less than 2 hours, all pairs were gone. Some pairs have even gone up on ebay already! Overall, from what people say, the event was bit crazy and unorganized with people cutting in the line. Hope it turns out better for the next big line up.
Kickz Inc. is an established store in Queens, New York! They have been opened for about 2 years and is the only store in Queens, NY that carries Quickstrike Jordans, JD Sports and Nike SBs and OG Jordans all in one location!

We all know that Delta Forces are not that popular compared to Dunks. However, if you're getting bored of dunks, maybe you can try getting one of these. This new Nike Delta Force SB has a nice color combination. The red and black reminds people of the Jordan colorway. Another bonus is that this SB has a gum sole! Also included is the usual zoom air sole. They inexpensive and good looking so if want something fresh, get these.
Another big collaboration between big brands. Neighborhood is a popular clothing brand in Japan and you probably heard about them recently because of the adidas 35th Anniversary Superstar series. Porter, also a Japanese Brand, has been making bags for a long time. Together, they create this new checkered bag that's made of wool. It comes in two colors: green/black and grey/back.
These new Puma Bessiers are pretty extreme. Puma seemed to go crazy on this design. Supposely, those big teeth on the sole are used for better traction and stopping. To me, they seem to be used to attack your nearest prey. Only 24 pairs are made, 12 in black and 12 in white and will come in a arcylic case. Check out more pictures at Sneaker Freaker.
This Camo Bathing Ape Sweat Shirt is new for 2005. It has been pre-washed giving you a more vintage feeling and as usual the Bape tag is on the left sleeve's cuff. This new item will come in a limited quantity.
We recently had a talk with T-Shirt Designer/Maker, Steve Rosswick. We asked him about his new t-shirt line and this is what he had to say:
Yes, the picture on the right is actually by Nike. It's called the Nike Air Chukka Moc and luckily it's for the ladies. I'm guessing that these are probably inpired by the recently popular Ugg boots. Anyhow, there are more samples than just this one. Other samples include Womens Air 180, Women's Dunk Low, Vandal Hi Canvas, Air Baltoro 2, Air Max 90, Vector and Vengence!
New Nike Dunk Low SB is out! (well, at least in Asia). This clean and traditional dunk SB uses the simple but exquisite color combination of white and classic green. When I look at this shoe, it gives me a very classy "tennis" shoe feeling. It seems like all the Nike Dunk SB's this year are reverting back to simple colors and normal leather not like last year with wild colors and crazy materials.
New release from Bape includes this Baby Lisa Tee. This Baby Lisa Tee is perfect for ladies. Baby Lisa is kind of like Minnie Mouse whereas Baby Milo is like Mickey Mouse. Would make a perfect gift for your girlfriend!

The popularity of this model continues as Mad Foot! releases this the Mad Professor High! There's improvements to the insole so wearing it for long hours will not cause your feet to get tired. The use of suede is a great addition as well! Comes in three different color schemes. The dark brown/dark green/orange pair uses more suede than the others! These are "MAD" nice!

This is the the third character in Tim Biskup's "Alphabeast" series. Dont let the tiny picture fool you. It measures 23 inches tall which is HUGE. They're limited to 100 pieces and comes with a signed and numbered insert. In addition, each figure comes in a beautiful full color printed box. It would make a great display. These kind of remind me of a gianatic salt/peper shaker.
This is the new Limited Nike Air Burst. It was first released in 1995 and has recently been re-issued. It has a 270 degree visible air which supplies the great cushioning. This new color and the nubuck material used is looking great. Tongue and toe areas are a mesh like material. It's a beautiful shoe and should be given more credit.
Brand new collaboration between two big brands. This Comme des Garcons x Porter pouch is quite colorful and with it's checkered pattern, it has no problem turning heads. It is big enough to fit a digital camera and a cellphone. Once you open the first flap, you'll find a bigger opening perfect for your camera and a second flap which can hold your cellphone. It can be either attached to your belt or you could attach it elsewhere because it includes a clip. It comes in two different colors.

Yesterday I introduced part 3 of the Bape X Kaws collaboration but only introduced the sweat shirt and hoody version and missed the tee. This 2005 tee is a collaboration of grafitti artist KAWS and Bape if you didn't know already. The colorful "BAPExx" logo is in the is largely printed on the front. It's made of 100% cotton and the usual Ape face tag is attached to the left sleeve. The "BAPExx" comes in two different color schemes.

You've probably seen this before but if you haven't, this is the new Nike Air Force 1 Mid "Dirk". I'm posting this shoe again because there are now detailed pictures for you enjoy. This quickstrike limited shoe is inspired by Dirk Nowitzki of the NBA team Dallas Mavericks. The color scheme is from the Dallas Maverick's Jersey and with the patent leather overlays, this is a really nice shoe.

Huge interview with the artist MO about the new Nike x Mo Air Force 1 Mids at 
The first two Bathing Ape x Kaws shirts were pretty nice. The logos were quite creative but I can't really say the same thing for the 3rd series. This time there is no Ape logo nor Milo logo; only the words "Bape" with "xx" is displayed on the front. I give them credit for using a kaws skeleton style for the font but other than that, it's quite plain in my opinion. There are also some teeth like things on the "P" of "Bape" but that doesn't help it much. And as usual, the "Bape x Kaws" logo is at the back. Maybe it's still a turn on for hardcore Bape fans who try to collect every piece of these collaborations but I'll pass on this one. Comes in colors black and blue.
The outstanding logo and the coloration makes this Riders Jacket simple but nice. This sporty jacket uses a navy blue color that creates kind of a vintage feeling to it. The jacket is not overly thick nor thin so it's perfect for spring time use.
With the material used and the unique lettering of the words "Bathing Ape" at the back, this shirt gives a western style that is a bit different to the usual. Even the pockets, and buttons reinforce the "western style". So if you want something different from the usual hip hop style, get this nice cowboy style shirt.
Reversible shirts are so nice. You kind of get two shirts in one! So if you're bored of one side, just flip it and enjoy the other. So that's why Bape is releasing so many reversibles lately. These new reversible sweat shirts and hoodies are for spring/summer 2005. They are both made of 100% cotton and both sides have a big Bathing Ape logo smack in the middle. As usual, the Ape tag is on the cuff of the shirts.
