Peek-A-Boo: Air Jordan 60+ GS - Black/Varsity Red - White

With the amount of fusions on the horizon this year, you'd think it'd be time for JB to finally given us the punch line to what has to be a joke. Not yet, apparently. Here we have another hybrid [which sounds less cheap and doesn't attract as much hatred] model - the 60+ - inspired by all of the numbered sneakers Jordan wore when he scored 60 points in a game. You see clear elements of the AJV silhouette as well as the accents from the AJII and AJVII models. Also somewhere in the shoe, the AJI model is represented. This GS version will hit stores right before fall, can't front, this colorway definitely makes this shoe a little more tolerable - but i'm still not sold on it.

SBeezies: Nike SB July 2009 Releases

I must admit, the year of the blue box has been a mediocre thus far. Out of a number of releases to date, there has only been a small handful that were noteworthy - including a few blazers, supreme themed p-rod 2, return of the bruin and eh to the dunks. It seems as if the Nike SB brand is intentionally recycling colorways (black/white and neon themed cws continue to run amuck). Unfortunately, July seems to be no different, with the only notable joint IMO being the "Dr. Feelgood" inspired SB Blazers (which the exception of the Nike SB Blue Lobster dunks to release June 30th as a GR). Anyhoo, check out the pics below and tell me what you think of this month's package.

The King

Rest in Peace

I'm choked up, or I would totally write an essay. Maybe I'll edit this later. but for now, just want y'all to rock with me and celebrate his life.

YSK: Nike WMS Dunk High x Nylon Mag Available on Nike.com

After weeks of disappointment, the Nylon Mag collabo with Nike has finally touched down on Nike.com. There is a full women's size run available, and they are priced to move, retailing at 100 bizucks. Sweet. Head over now and cop your pair soon, i'm sure they're selling like hot tamales.

Summer Packism: Nike WMS Exotic Pack - Air Digs, Air Max 95 & Blazer High

Summer Packism: Nike WMS Independence Day Pack - Air Max 95 and Vandal Low

Can you believe it's almost that time of year again? The Fourth of July is always bittersweet for me, it's a great time to celebrate and enjoy family and friends around some tasty bbq, but its also a marker of how fast the summer is going by =/. Somehow sneakers seem to help me get over the latter lol. This year, Nike Sportswear has cooked up a crazy new pack for Independence Day, even topping last year's pack! An Air Max 95 and Vandal Low get the star treatment, literally - with metallic silver star bursts seen on a red, white and blue upper of course. LOVE IT! Me thinks both are a necessity for the long holiday weekend! Expect to see these in stores on July 1st!

Summer Packism: Nike WMS Clash Pack - Aeroflight High, Blazer Mid, & Court Force High

I'm certainly happy to see that the Swoosh has dedicated a majority of its design ideas to creating fresh packs for women. Today, Sole Collector dropped some photos of the newest clash pack to hit the scene not too long after the first clash pack. This time around we have three different models - a Blazer Hi, Court Force Hi, and Aeroflight High LE which I featured on SneakHerBox yesterday. The theme here is bright colors - Glass Blue and Voltage (yellow) - and a wide range of materials and patterns not commonly considered to mesh well, like seude, metallic polka dots, terry cloth, and flower prints. To hit the scene officially next Wednesday, July 1st, check your local Nike retailers.

YSK: Nike WMS Air Force 1 Low - Radiant Emerald/Swan - Vaporize

A new twist on reptilian has been taken on this women's Nike Air Force 1 model. As you can see, a silver polished leather with a "lizard like" pattern takes hold of the entire upper, while off white laces and swoosh add a mellow touch to a very busy sneaker. These have just touched down over at Citysole and are available in full size run, head over if you're interested.

SFS: Big Nike GS - White/Green - Sparkle

Rocking a similar design pattern as the GS Air Max 90s I posted yesterday, the latest Big Nike to drop comes in an uber cute colorway that is sure to please. I am a fan of all things sparkly, and these definitely hit the spot. The tonal blue and dark pink all shimmer around a white upper. The green swoosh and NIKE word logo on the heel definitely let you know what time it is - pretty summer summer summer time lol. Anyhoo, these are now online at Finishline.com, so be sure to check them out if you're liking what you're seeing.

Sneak of the Week: Nike WMS Dunk High Challenge - Red/White - Gum

Morning Folks!

Today we bring you good news from the book of SneakHerBox. The kick gods have blessed us fab femmes once again with a sweet new pair of dunk highs. The bright red upper initially caught my eye, I was like whoa, not even sure what kind of material that is but it looks hella sleek. Then I glanced at the fat white laces and swoosh which give this pair a nostalgic feel. But I was nearly floored when I peeped the gum outsole, it is HELLA rare to find this element on women's dunks, so that factor alone elevated these to a whole `notha level. There isn't any specific nationwide release info as of now, but I'll be sure to bring it to you when it comes, so stick with Sbox.com for more details.

UPDATE

Kicks: Nike WMS Aeroflight High LE

Here we take a looksie at the Aeroflight High model from the Swoosh. Not sure where to start with this one. Um, I see a rubberized sole, teal suede upper, white textured toe box and side panels, giant pale yellow swoosh, and silver polka dot strap all add "WTF" elements to a sneaker I'm not totally sold on. But hey i'm sure there are some lovely ladies out there who can work this look. If you're one of them, Finishline.com has a full women's size run :)

Peek-a-Boo: Air Jordan Spiz'ike - Black/Varsity Red - Cement Grey

*applause*

Black and red on a Jordan go together like peanut butter and grape jelly, so it's no surprise that we finally get a Bred Cement cw for this model. Featuring what looks to be buttery nubuck, black elephant print (versus word print typically seen on spiz'ikes), cement accents, and Air Jordan IV style netting on the side panels, these are CERTAINLY going to be winners. If you're getting antsy looking for a purchase link, you can relax, these won't be dropping til Spring 2010, bummer huh? LOL more info when it comes!

Most of my peoples know that I am a HUGE Drake fan right, so I was over on his blog and saw this video, which I then deemed post-worthy for Sbox.com.

Kicks: Reebok Freestyle Nostalgia Pack - 3 New Colorways

Because the 80s were such a wavvvvy time, its only right that we continue to pay homage to such a pivotal sneaker for women during that era. Reebok has put some stank (in a good way) on an old favorite which has resurged into the modern day sneaker culture. The Freestyle High Nostalgia pack will feature three pastel colorways - pink, yellow, and purple - all with a suede upper and clear gel toe and heel caps. Neat-o! Look for these to drop very soon at Reebok retailers - I'll be sure to keep ya posted on exactly where when that info comes!

Really??? Married to the Mob New Logo 2009

With the broadening of the brand comes a slightly new look. Ms. Leah over at MTTM has decided to change up the "puckered lip" logo we are oh so familiar with seeing - giving it a more sleek and sexy look. To celebrate, a couple new tees featuring the sassy spout will be dropping soon. I guess this means that the old logo tees will be collectors items soon, i'm sure they'll selling for an arm and a leg on ebay in a week. Anyhoo, I give the new look the BD stamp of approval, how do you feel about the change?

YSK: Nike SB Dunk High "Gucci" - Holiday 2009 QS

New pics have dropped on the intrawebsz for the very much hyped (yet justified) Nike SB Dunk High "Gucci." It looks as tho the folks over at Revive in Michigan have gotten a few sample pairs in store and we are all hoping that the finished product, set to drop by year's end, will look exactly the same. Below are a couple more pics of the 2009 Sample and also a couple side by side pics of the 05 and 09 models for comparison.

SBeezies: Concepts x Nike SB "Blue Lobster" Dunk Low Premium To Drop June 20th

We love SB collabs here at SneakHerBox.com. And it is rare that we see an idea duplicated so early on in the SB lineage. Wellz, the folks over at Cncpts in Boston have teamed up once again with the Swoosh to fish out a newer and more dangerous version of one of thee most sought after gold box sb releases. The "Blue Lobster" Nike Dunk is sure to be a great successor to last year's Lobster Nike SB Dunk Low Premium, which was released by the store on May 31, 2008 and packaged with a bunch of special edition "Concepts Fishing Company" trinkets.

Below is a snippet of info about the Blue Lobster release from the Cncpts website:

"This time around, it’s dangerous! The “Blue Lobster” is a dangerous sub-breed of violent crustaceans that have been wrecking havoc on the otherwise tranquil waters of New England. Priced at $250.00 usd, the actual Blue Lobster sneaker will be bagged, tagged and sealed in a HAZMAT foam container. Each pair will be joined by an official Nike SB tee shirt, hang tag and lace lock. The first 200 pairs will come with 1 of 2 Concepts x Alien Workshop skate decks (Images coming soon). "

To say that I'm stoked right now would be an understatement. I surely won't be in Boston anytime soon, so i'll be missing out on the Special Ed Blue Lobster release, but like the original Lobster SB Dunk Low, I'm am hoping that these will drop as GR next month. *Fingers Crossed* More info on that, if or when it comes!
