Releases For June 6 ( Air Yeezy)


Time for a release rundown for june 6, 2009.

The time has finally come for the third colorway of arguably the most sought after sneaker of 2009, the Nike Air Yeezy, to release. There is no denying the hype behind this sneaker. The first colorway sold out within minutes, the second colorway sold out within minutes, and the third colorway is expected to sell out–no surprise here–within minutes. If you are currently not in line in front of a store expected to carry the Air Yeezy, you have an extremely low chance of purchasing the sneakers for even close to retail price. Nonetheless, this Nike Air Yeezy features a tan upper with pink accents seen via the inner lining, dark grey accents seen on the toecap, a white mid-sole, and a glow-in-the-dark sole.

Though the Air Yeezy is most definitely the more sought after sneaker dropping this weekend, Jordan Brand will also be releasing a new colorway of the Air Jordan Fusion IX (9) tomorrow. This AJF9 hosts a white leather upper with black and varsity red accents. This colorway is the fifth style of the Air Jordan Fusion 9, which meshes together the Air Force 1 and the Air Jordan 9 (IX). The Nike Air Yeezy and the Air Jordan Fusion 9 will retail for $215 and $160, respectively

Wooly Vans


The newest pack of sneakers from the California skate brand, Vans, is based off of a material not usually found on footwear—wool.

All four silhouettes feature dark premium leather, suede, and wool uppers accented by a cream sole.
