This vs. That

I've always been an Air Force One fan. Even in my early sneaker days, I knew that you couldn't go wrong with a crisp pair of all whites and a couple colorful joints. Nike has definitely kept the legacy going in 2008 by creating some simple, yet unique colorways for the classic kicks.

These babies are newest on the scene and both deliver that traditonal Air Force One style
Nike WMNS Air Force 1 Vivid Blue/White

^A beauty aint it? I call this one "Cool Breeze" lol. Notice the textile like pattern on the toe box, tongue and side paneling. Very chill...





Nike WMNS Air Force 1 Volt/White


^This sneak is amazing! The highlighter green might be too bright for some, but I think the ladies will definitely love it. Notably, this sneaker totes patent leather on its toe box and side panel unlike the textile pattern on the previous sneak.

I am digging them both, but may have to run with the Vivid blue joint this time. It just screams summer to me!

The "Volt" is located at select Nike retailers, while "Cool Breeze" can be found this Saturday at St. Alfreds.

Sneak of the Week? Or This v. That

I dunno, I'm not sure what to label this post, allz I know is that I am apparently infatuated with black and white sneaks now and I've seen one I can get now...and one I'll have to get later.
Any hoo, here they are


Nike Blazer Mid Denim


Nike Air Force One Canvas


Both sneaks are hot, and personally this is the ONLY canvas colorway I've liked. The Blazers came out last month and are available at Solemates...Chicago. The Air One's are due this summer at Nike retailers. Both joints are in GS sizes, which is perfect for me and my SFS (small feet syndrome). I imagine too much of the same thing isn't too bad...but I'm sure my mom wouldn't understand...

This vs That

This week we have two WMS Nike Outbreak Hi's which have been reintroduced to sneak life with some very vibrant colorways.


First up, we have the Outbreak in a Dark Pink/White-Bright Green/Spark Colorway

vs.

The Outbreak in Varsity Maze/Flint Grey-Orange Blaze





I think a clear difference between these two is that the first brings a more spring-oriented vibe, while the loud and exhuberant colors of the second sneak clearly show summertime.

I'm not really sold on either to be honest, but maybe they'll be better other colorways to come...

This vs. That (In for this week's Sneak of the Week)


Sorry, Folks! I really didn't wanna do a sneak of the week post but I couldn't leave ya hangin right?!? Instead, i've created a new category I like to call this versus that, where I take two items, be it shoes, apparel, accessories, etc., compare and contrast them, and get your opinion. First up, I'll be taking a look at two special edition Reebok freestyle Hi models (the imfamous 80s/90s sneaker which I pretty much love and reference in my "about me" section).



This
Reebok Freestyle Hi Disco

versus

That

Reebok Freestyle Hi Gold
Both models are fierce in their own ways. I definitely like the subtly of the black, with the hints of pastel colors and robust gold side detailing. But the gold shoe just wows me! LoL One of my good friends (shouts out to MJP) is a sucker for gold anything, and when I saw these, I immediately thought of her! I really like how fresh and funky the gold joints are, really 70s disco-ish.
The verdict is pretty much in for me, I pick the gold ones... but to each her own ya kno!
Both pairs are available via sold out
