Parra x Nike Air Max 1
For later this year, Nike worked with Dutch artist Parra on a collaborative Air Max 1. The sneaker comes with an all black upper with interesting use of different premium materials. The mid-sole is speckled in the artist’s trademark colors and the in-soles carry his art. Accents on the sneakers upper are set in turquoise. Even the stitching comes in the artists colors, which is a very nice detail, on the otherwise very subtle looking shoe. Via mashKULTURE.
DJ Clark Kent Gives Away Air Yeezy’s
By now everyone knows DJ Clark Kent is a true stand up guy. His shoe game is beyond official and not to mention he has access to Nike’s Innovation Kitchen. With that said, its really no biggie for DJCK to give sneakers away. Remember the 112 Pack giveaway? Well, Clark blessed a guy by the name of Gatsby with a FREE pair of black Air Yeezy’s at Sneaker Pimps Los Angeles. Oh, so you don’t believe me? Check out the video and see for yourself.
Asics x Gettry Procourt AR “Hamburger”
It looks like sneaker designers are looking for new inspiration, in this case fast food. Asics got together with retailer Gettry to create the “Hamburger” Procourt AR. All colors of the hamburger ingredients are represented on the upper of the sneaker, which comes in a mix of materials. They did also not forget the french fries, those you find on the inner sole.
