You can pick one up at Urban Outfitters nationwide, or at kidrobot.

Text your vote!!! Luck or Steele??

For one week World Star Hip Hop will broadcast the fierce rap battles between Lady Luck and Rece Steele for 25k and they want YOU to vote for which female emcee should take home the cash!! Here are the stats - Lady Luck is an emcee from Jersey who has been doing her thing for quite some time now independently and has battled Bronx emcee Remy Ma before. Now fellow Bronx emcee Rece Steele, who won 100k on VH1's Miss Rap Supreme and whose mother just happens to be an ol skool emcee herself, steps up to the plate!! This was a highly anticipated battle of the ladies with 2 previous battles recently on DJ Famous Radio! The battle went down on Sept. 27th at the National Black Theater in Harlem. There were other battles with Mysonne vs E Ness and T-Rex vs Tech 9! Text your vote now!!! FOR LADY LUCK text MOTV03, or FOR RECE STEELE text MOTV04 to 99134

1st Encounter at DWI Studio/FAMOUS Radio 91.9 FM


2nd Encounter..They almost fought!!

Pass the mic: Female MC's in the UK

I was originally trying to find this week's throwback video, but came across this instead. That's when I realized my next post. A lot of people sleep on female mc's in general, but when you have an accent and you're a female mc they seem to sleep on you harder. Let's not be fooled: These ladies may have an accent abut they can spit that hot fire!!!




NIke Vandals Quickstrike Edition

Finally a quickstrike collection that isn't bright. Even though I can't really see the second pair a have a feeling that I will be buying those. Thanks Nike for helping me with my fall wardorbe. These are out now in a sneaker shop near you.

New FSF Interns ready to roll

Hey all, just a heads up about the Dream Team of interns we have at FSF this Fall. From Christa, a Photo Intern who's on her way to being a sneaker designer, to 3--count 'em--3 journalism interns including Janine, a nasty spoken word artist who's gonna keep us posted on some performers who are tight from tongue to toe, Emma, a baller and teacher who'll keep us connected with the sports side of kicks, and Mickey, a journalism major from Sydney who's gonna rep for the international sneaker scene. Don't sleep on these ladies!

Janine, Journalism Intern

Jordan 1 Doernbecher 2008

This year, 16-year-old Tony Taylor Jr. aka Mr. Boober, a Nephrotic Syndrome and a kidney transplant survivor, got the chance to design his very own Air Jordan 1 sneaker. Last year a 16-year-old design some Jordan 2. Mr. Boober's design is 1 of 4 that will release on November 14th.




The black/blue color scheme represents his success with the battle against kidney disease, while the contrasting yellow and number 15 honor his favorite player, Carmelo Anthony. Below the number 15 is the date he received his kidney transplant and below that are four stars which represent his high school’s mascot, the Generals. The palm trees along the midsole resemble the Bahamas.

The Iceman's Blazers


Alright, who here remembers George "The Iceman" Gervin? This San Antonio Spurs star is not only a Hall of Famer, but a smooooooth operator in the old school finger-roll sense of the word. He was full of style coming out of the ABA, and was one of the players to liven up the NBA as well. Now Nike is honoring him with the very kicks he wore when they first came out: Blazers. These beautiful metallic-silver Blazers are only dropping at Footlocker's House of Hoops, and there are only 24 pairs. I can't imagine any of them are small....bummer!
Drop date: Sept 20th.

FSF and DXC parties this weekend!

Saturday:


Sunday:

Have fun wherever you're at! And make sure you say hi if you attend the Boston event.

New Stuff at J4K Apparel

Remember these guys?!? Well if you don't click here for a refresher : http://femalesneakerfiends.blogspot.com/2008/05/j4k-apparel.html
Well they are back with two new designs called Where are you Yeezy?
Where are you Yeezy?: These two new shirts are made to go with the Air Yeezy in the Black/White & Grey/Black/Infra-Red. The shirt features an image of Yeezy himself and includes the lyrics to flashing lights in the background and asks the question at the end, "Where are you Yeezy"? When are the shoes gonna drop anyway? That's the question (now that he's been arrested are they gonna drop?)!!
The cost is a reasonable $13.99 for S - XL and $14.99 for 2XL & 3XL (as usual) and expect other colorways to drop after the sneakers release. We're having a promotion right now also where if you buy 4 shirts shipping is free, anywhere in the world! The Where Are You Yeezy Tee is now available at The Retro Sole on eBay. The J4K Apparel website will also go live 09/20/08 and will have several new releases!

Men's Vipper

Men's Cast

Support Footwear is holding their own, complete with sponsored skaters, boarders, streetwear, etc. As usual, I like what they have for the men better, but we'll see... What do you think??

FETTi honors the fallen...

Evening ladies! Last night I went to Label Lounge in NYC with my team from SoleFood NYC www.solefoodnyc.com for a special evening of reflection for September 11th. We were invited by designer Shoichi Amemiya of SABIT www.sabitnyc.com and he asked for a special pair of kicks to honor those who sacrificed for us on 9/11. Rightly I obliged and created this pair which had everyone quiet. I would like to thank all the men and women who lost their lives on September 11, 2001 battling to rescue the victims trapped in the World Trade Center. Whether or not if it was a government conspiracy, thousands lost their lives and left behind family and friends who will forever be in mourning for them!
