Kobe’s viral video jumping over an Aston Martin in his Nike Hyperdunk’s has spawned a new pair of Hyperdunk’s to be released this spring. The Kobe Bryant Aston Martin DB9 will be limited to 500 pieces so collectors will have to hurry. Osneaker has the shoe on pre-sale but with the $700 price tag and just like an Astin Martin, we may have to just admire online!
Check out the video if you haven’t seen it already.
We recently started scoping out the gear for this year’s snowboarding season… Its about boots, boots and more boots. We are pleasantly surprised with all of the stylish and seemingly practical choices for women (well the verdict is still out on the practicality but we’re hopeful). We’re happy that brands appear to be looking out for women almost as much as men. The options continue to get better every year. Check out some of the new options for women this year.
Check back with us soon for more info on men’s and women’s gear for this winter. We insist on tearing it up in style!
Leave it to Nike to revolutionize not only sneakers but now snowboarding
boots. Nike launched a line of snowboarding boots for the first time last
season but have improved the new line for the new season. Nike utilized
the Air Force Zoom technology in their line of snowboarding boots but the
new Kaiju model takes their technology and design even further. The Kaiju
line is already getting buzz for its comfort, flexibility, ie. the ability
to walk around in them like they were your Air Force One sneakers, and
practical laces. Regardless if you’re a fan of Nike or not, we can’t wait
to hear how these ride this winter!
When Nike and Lance Armstrong came together in 2004 with their yellow LIVESTRONG wristbands it became a global phenomenon. Seemingly overnight everyone had one on their wrist, and it was all for a good cause. Now in 2009 Armstrong and Nike have come together again to raise cancer awareness launching a global art exhibition.
More than twenty artists are participating in the event, creating art inspired by Armstrong’s dedication and commitment to the Lance Armstrong Foundation. All of the funds raised will go towards the fight against cancer. The exhibition starts in Paris, and then will travel to the United States by fall. By bringing a love of art together with a good cause, this cultural movement is expanding their reach, raising more awareness and funding for the foundation.
