SNEAKER TIME!


We have seen the Jordan I decked out in polka dots popping up at various retailers so while the Chlorophyll Polka Dot Pack isn’t a surprise it is definitely a welcome edition. The Hi and Lo come in alternating black and white colorways with the chlorophyll green dots remaining consistently placed on the toebox, eyelets and heel. Both shoes sport a white midsole and chlorophyll outsole and stitching. While the shoes are virtually identical other than cuts and colorways the embroidered heels are not the same. The lo white is emblazoned with the winged basketball logo while the hi black sports the traditional Jumpman silhouette. They are set to drop in June. Via Sneakerfiles

SNEAKER TIME!


If you are a Nike SB fan you may want t celebrate Christmas this year in June. The line of skate shoes looks to release an SB Dunk Premium, SB Dunk Mid, SB Blazer Premium, SB Tre AD, SB Classic and P-Rod II Supreme in some pretty awesome colorways. The shoes are already trickling into retailers but you can pre-order them at CSS.

SNEAKER TIME!


Beauty & Youth by United Arrows got together with Sun Deck on a summer sneaker. Fusing the upper of an Era with the sole of Espadrilles turns out to work pretty well. The upper comes in linen in several colorways. The mid-sole is a nice twist on the classic summer shoe. Look out for a release very soon.

SNEAKER TIME!

Nike decided to wrap its ever popular dunk in its own special wrapping paper. And while the shoes drop before Santa Claus comes you have to admit that they scream tis the season placed side by side while the all white patent leather evokes the thought of snow. The Patent Leather Pack comes in two colorways which are simply tweaks on the mid and outsole. One in red/white variation and the other in green/black with tongue tags to match. The  stitching blends with the color its applied to making this shoe a very understated crowd pleaser. ViaDunkbar

SNEAKER TIME!

Nike brings a new twist to its SB Dunk Mid. While the dark chocolate suede upper has the eyelets and of a Jordan 1 the predominant design elements are that of the SB Dunk Mid. It juggles a speckled grey outsole with a black midsole that is wrapped in light grey stitching and looks very clean. The construction boot laces literally tie this look together and makes this sneaker a great winter drop. Via NSB

Acropolis Apparel


Merely a baby on the block in the booming streetwear scene, Acropolis Apparel is trying to set itself in a class of its own. With an innovative concept and unique designs, Acropolis has managed to break the mold that was once the standard among streetwear brands. Each design tells a story by combining ancient historical figures with modern culture. Although the word ‘acropolis’ is defined as the ‘city at the top,’ this brand has only just begun its journey to reach their highest point.
