Curren$y says No to Fusions

Many Jordan heads and Sneaker heads may not like the whole fusion idea, and rapper Curren$y is one to agree. Curren$y describes the AJ fusion line by saying “It’s like an Air Force 1 dressing up like a Jordan for Halloween” , which I may say is pretty funny. You can see what else Curren$y got to say about Air Jordan fusions after the jump.

Chocolate Jordan I

This AJ 1 retro features a mix of autumn colors, a chocolate leather upper and velvet brown take the upper with a garnet red swoosh and Air Jordan Wings logo with sage green on the laces, midsole stitching, and inner lining. These will be hitting retail next month august, but for now check out the detail shots after the jump.This shoes look to be a hit with the return of cold weather with their almost bootlike appearance.

Prime 5.... WTF Jordan

The Prime 5 is a hybrid, shocker I know, of the Jordan Alpha 1 and the Air Jordan 5. Obviously the Alpha 1 design is used primarily for the silhouette with hits of the Jordan 5 on the toe box, heel panel, top eyelets, mesh side panel, tongue and collar lining. A phylon midsole and bottom loaded full length Zoom Air are in place for great cushioning, possibly the only thing great about this model, all sitting atop a clear outsole.

These are going to be hitting retailers for JB’s spring lineup in 2011 and will most likely end up with the rest of the Alpha 1’s… on the clearance rack.

Vans Sk8-Hi Decostructs

Recently, we’ve gotten some good looks at how the Vans team has drawn from and applied certain cultural influences to its shoe line. Here’s some more. After last year’s successful collaboration between Vans and Japan’s FLAUGE, the Deconstruct Vans Sk8-Hi returns in burgundy, black, and grey. As one might be able to deduce from the sneaker model’s nickname, the Vans Sk8-Hi Deconstruct was freed of padding to result in a more lightweight frame and has the Vans stripe logo only embroidered in the same color as the upper to give a “one piece” feel to it. What are your thoughts on the Vans Sk8-Hi Deconstruct?
