Candace Parker player editions

Last year Candace Parker did something no other basketball player has done, whether in the NBA or WNBA: She won an NCAA championship, an Olympic gold and the WNBA MVP and Rookie of the Year! And adidas still hasn't honored her with her own kicks! Crazy. If you go to the adidas website and type in Candace Parker, 4 men's Tennessee shirts come up. Why sign her if you're gonna treat her like that??

On the bright side, she's back on the court (after giving birth in May to a baby girl) and rocking some new adidas "CP Commander LT"s that at least have her Ace 3 sig on the tongue. Here they are:


No word of them getting out to us, but if they do I hope they have the TN colorway!

Air Jordan 60+ for the ladies!!!

Happy Friday!! So many kicks coming out..what's a girl to do? Well these should be at the top of your list girls! The AJ 60+ takes the best features from the all of the Air Jordan I, II, V, and VII's to create a hybrid the ladies can appreciate! AND THEY COME IN SIZES 4-7!!! Get yourself a pair at EXTRABUTTER!

Camper Shoes @ Capsule trade show

These sandal styles were all done in a collaborative fashion with different people in fashion and art. While looking more fashion than function the rep told me that the shoes were as functional as a traditional sandal

A slightly different take on the sneaker-shoe concept

These flats are here because of the handiwork involved in them. All artwork shown is embroidered on and they are "fraternal" twin images on the shoes.

A micro pref boat shoe? A dressed up slip on Van? Whatever the explanation for them, Fee wants a pr. size 8.5w/7m.

Sneaker Pimps DC

Got to love an event that this is the first thing you see...

Some of the custom work displayed @ Sneaker Pimps is extremely labor intensive. Fee's adhd won't let her color, but props to this piece's designer.

Imani repping Artistic Sole and Art Whino preps the palette for a sneaker themed canvas. Not only does she do sneakers and canvas, she also tattoos in DC @ Pinz n Needlez. The girl gets BUSY!

Imani's finished work for the evening...not bad for a semi lit area in under 3hrs huh ; D

Weapons Old and New

Converse recently invited me to design my own Converse Weapon, making me think back to the good old days of Larry Bird and Magic. I didn't go green (despite being a big Celtics fan), but I did have fun reppin' another squad close to my heart...


Make your own at Converse.com.

If you don't want to rewrite history by putting your own touch on the '86 Weapons, then maybe you want to ball in Converse's new "balls technology". Their Weapon Evo uses the balls in the heel to give you what looks like great padding, stability and response.



Available this Fall. Only problem, the smallest size is a men's 7.5...

Hi everyone!!!
So pissed that I'm stuck here on the other side of the world while all you ladies are barbequing and Sneaker Pimping. If you're wondering where I've been at....I'm moving to Amsterdam (Fee and Jeff...I´m expecting a visit!!!), so I've been laying low and paying off my credits so that I can get out of here before I go completely postal. And it's been easy, no kicks for two months. And honestly the only kicks that have gotten my heart rate up lately are the Nike Air Max 1 OG´S. And yes, I´m coppin' both colors.




And I might get the women's Safari AM1. They're growing on me.....

Perilous Kiss

From the help of China B (hey girl hey!), I got put on to San Diego women's brand Perilous Kiss. According to founder Ashley Vied, "Perilous Kiss is for strong independent women that have a mouth and aren't afraid to use it. The shirts are spiked with sarcasm and a lot of attitude." I'm glad to see more new brands on the come up, especially during the recession. So ladies with attitude, what do you think?

To cop or see more of the collection hit up Perilouskiss.com or http://www.myspace.com/perilouskiss

Ran into a dilemma

This may come as a shocker to some, but I have never owned a pair of Air Max 1's in my life! (Gasp) So when I came across these on Sneaker News, I figured the Safari pack is the way to go. My only problem is what color to get? They're all my favorite colors and it's hard to just pick one. So my question for all you fiends out there is Which colorway should I get? Or should I just get them all? BTW these are out now at select Nike retailers.
