Air Jordan: 6/7 'Gold Medal Pack' First Look
In honor of the 2012 Olympic games Jordan Brand has decided to release a number of Olympic inspired shoes. Along with the original Olympic retro 6 and 7s JB is bringing out a 'Gold Medal Pack' qith a base-White Retro 6 and a base-Black Retro 7 each with Gold highlights. Before today we had only seen catalogue pictures of these two, that are not set to release together in a pack until sometime in August. So what are your first thought on this pack?
Nike LeBron 9 Low: Red/Teal
Coming off the success of last years lowtop version of the LeBron 8 with it's flashy colorways like the 'Sprites', 'Solar Reds', and 'Miami Nights' it seems like the LeBron line is going to keep it going this year with the Nike LeBron 9 Low. This Red/Teal colorway is most likely just one of many bight colorways we will see on this silhouette. Keep your eyes open for more colorways, but what's your thoughts on these bright beauties?
Nike HTM: Flyknit Technology
As if Nike hasn't pushed the boundaries of lightweight technology for years it seems that they have taken it to a level that was unthought of. Putting together the heads of Hiroshi Fujiwara, Tinker Hatfield, Mark Parker to create the HTM team Nike has created the Flyknit Technology. Using a fully knitted-in and seemless upper they can create a shoe that is 5.6 ounces. So far they have released pictures of one Flyknit Racer and two Flyknit Trainers. These will presumably be used in the Olympic games by USA runners and most likely many more. What's your thought's on this innovative push by Nike?
Nike Sportswear: 'Dream Team' Collection
In honor of some of the greats to ever play for the USA National team Nike Sportswear has decided to release a pack they've deemed the 'Dream Team' Collection. In this pack they've included the Air More Uptempo, for Scottie Pippen, the Air Force 180, for Charles Barkley, the Zoom Huarache 2K4, for Kobe Bryant, and the Shox BB4, for Vince Carter. Also included in the pack is an Air Force 1 High and a Nike Destroyer Jacket to commemorate the original Dream Team. So what's your thoughts on the pack?

Nike LeBron 9: 'Swingman'
With the LeBron 9 being one of the best selling basketball shoes out right now and the whole Griffey line making a killing in the Retro department bringing these two powerhouses together was only right. So that's exactly what Nike did, taking the original Griffey 'Swingman' colorway and applying it to the LeBron 9, even adding a Dunkman/Swingman logo to the back of the shoe. These bad boys are set to release on March 3rd so if your feeling them make sure your moneys right from all the big releases on February 24th.
