6 rings

So Nike and Jordan have really been mashing it up. I do not think a day has gone by and i have seen a new fusion out. I think they are getting a little beside themselves, personally. But if millions line up to buy whatever i sell, i would keep pushing them out too. If you are familiar with the Spizike than the concept of these are clear.
They have been named 6 rings. The jury is still out on these.

Sneaker Pimps does Europe!!!


And I just found about it!!WHAT?WHAT? I already have my summer vacations planned, and don´t know if I can move the dates around. Theyre fucked up at my job....damn I need to come up with cash FAST
Here are the dates:
5/30/2008 London, UK
6/6/2008 Berlin, Germany
6/20/2008 Paris, France
6/26/2008 Milan, Italy
7/2/2008 Barcelona, Spain
So if I´m able to go, I´ll go to the show in either Berlin, Paris or London so make sure you say HI!!!

New Ladies Nike Court Force "Laces Kaleidoscopic"

I must say this is definitely the year of the Court force. Nike just released for the females the Laces Kaleidoscopic. The inspiration for the sneaker comes from the household name designer Emilio Pucci. Detailing on the sneaker includes the Pucci Pattern on the top, perforated leather, and patent leather on the swoosh. These are only sold at Nike Asia Retailers, Including Atmos Japan. http://item.rakuten.co.jp/atmos-tokyo/10004301/

New Women's Nike Dunks "The Liberty Pack"

Nike just released two new pairs of dunks for us females this week called "The Liberty Pack." Both pairs have a neutral gray color way with a nice touch of purple. The only difference is that the lo's have a floral print allover the sneaker. Those Highs definitely have my name on them!! These are out now at your local Sneaker spots and at http://www.apropersite.com/

Bombing Clientele

So Thursday night A-money and I were on our way to a Converse Event. They were celebrating the Hund(RED) Artists who contributed on the project. Which by the way we didn't get it because their PR and planning sucks!!! I was RSVP but got denied???? I don't know. They better step it up.

Anywho, no sweat off our back, we totally took advantage of our time and grabbed some pizza and chilled in the village. So on our walk to the F Train, we passed Clientele right on Spring Street. After taking a peek in their windows and seeing the heat they have, A-money brought to my attention that they don't carry nothing for the ladies.


WHAT??!???

This is turn starting raising my body temperature!!!

So I got revenge and left a message!!!







Isn't Beautiful!!! I know Fee would be proud of us!!!!

You think they will get the message on Friday morning?

Lets Hope or I'll be Back!!!!

In Response to the KCSLV Issue 15 Party...

Quiet as kept...There is a "ahem" a certain article beside the one Lori mentioned that I would like to bring your attention to look for!

You know what though....Just cop the mag and find out!!! I WILL SAY THAT THERE IS A CERTAIN FSFer TO LOOK FOR IN THERE....

I love being sneaky...LOL

COME OUT AND SEE ME PAINT LIVE!!!!!! YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!!!!



We here at Kicksclusive after 5 years and 14 issues are doing a re-branding of the magazine. The magazine is now called KCLSV Mag., which stands for KICKS, CLOTHING, LIFESTYLE, SPORT & VYNL.

For Issue 15 we have double cover with DJ AM on the front cover and the Adidas X Undr Crwn GilIIzero. This issue is also packed with sneaker culture stories that wont let you put the magazine down.

KCLSV release party...

They got a story on the adidas/undrcrwn/gilzeros, another on DJAM, and much more. Plus they got Pink Eye painting live!

My only question is, what's wrong with vowels?

dunkxchange is coming to the East Coast!

These guys don't stop! After a huge show in Miami (FSF SoFlo chapter repped hard, I heard...got some pics ladies?), the DXC crew is heading North. Catch them in Beantown this Saturday, or NYC on Sunday. It's all ages (we love DXC!), and don't forget, for the price of admission you can bring a few kicks to sell or trade.

Slowly but surely... Sneaker Design School

...I'm once again becoming a creature of the night.
This time it's due to Uni being closed for a while whilst the machines are oiled(?) over Easter, so evenings have been spent writing up Pattern Cutting and Mock-up notes- BIG pain in the butt. Ever known what you're doing and how to do it but when it comes to putting it into words you're speechless? I somehow managed over 40 pages.



It's taken over 4 evenings of solid(ish) working but I finally finished 3AM this morning! It's a good feeling not to put it off and leave it last minute.

Design sheets next...

Nuff of the Ruff Stuff

If you need to get your party on come on down to the Delancy!!! They will be some goody bags as well as raffles. Be There or Be Square!!!

Air Force 1's Rainbow

These are some really nice shoes perfect for the spring/summer. I really have a hate/love relationship with these shoes though. I love them because the colors are awesome, and they're made for the smaller foot. I dislike them because they are made for a smaller foot!! But they are a great look for the ladies and young kids. Check out sideapparel.com for your size. They cost $85 but the site is only taking pre-orders.
