Sneak Of The Week

The Sneak Of The Week is the Nike Air Trainer SC 2010 L ‘Baseball Glove’. In 2010 Nike continues to pay homage to the twenty year anniversary of Bo Jackson’s legendary ‘Bo Knows’ campaign. The latest of these celebratory releases is the Nike Air Trainer SC 2010 L ‘Baseball Glove’. Nike starts with the all new Air Trainer 2010 SC silhouette which is based off the original SC Trainer model infused with todays latest and greatest footwear technology. This includes the use of Fly Wire, a Diamond Fly sole, and a huge air bubble in the heel. In tribute to Bo Jackson’s time as an All Star Major League Baseball Player, the upper features premium brown leather with gold accents and stitching resembling a baseball glove. The ankle of the shoe is laser engraved with the infamous ‘Bo Knows’ mantra, while the heel displays 1990-2010 again nodding to the ad campaign anniversary.  The Nike Air Trainer SC 2010 L ‘Baseball Glove’ is available now at select Nike Training retailers including Eastbay and Champs.

Sneak Of The Week

The Sneak Of The Week is the Silver Anniversary Air Jordan Retro XI. As Jordan Brand celebrates it’s twenty fifth anniversary in 2010, they continue to release their classic models in white and silver colorways paying somewhat a traditional homage to the occasion. Preceded by the I, II, III, IV, and IX, the next of these silhouettes is arguably the most popular of all Jordan Brand’s lineage, the Air Jordan XI. The shoes are strikingly similar to the original 1996 fan favorite ‘Columbia’ XI colorway that has yet to re-release since early 2001, making the Anniversary XIs a ‘must cop’ for many old and new collectors alike. However, even stripped of color accents, the most notable difference in these shoes is that they are the first retro XI to ever release without the classic Jumpman icon on the heel. The Silver Anniversary Air Jordan Retro XI will release in limited numbers at select Jordan Brand accounts Saturday, May 1st. To hear more about the Sneak Of The Week tune in to Sports Rapp Live.

Sneak Of The Week

The Sneak Of The Week is the Nike SB Skunk Dunk High. In 2004 Nike SB set the sneaker world ablaze with the release of three colorways of the SB Hemp Dunk Low including the mahogany red, cascade blue, and the ever elusive bonsai green. The release coincided with April 20th a notorious holiday in cannabis culture. Now six years later Nike SB serves up a reprise of the Hemp Dunk Low  serving up their big brother. Behold the Skunk Dunk High designed by Todd Bratrud who is no stranger to Nike SB’s Dunk Highs with his previous hits; the Send Helps and BaDunka Dunks. The Skunk Dunk High features a fuzzy tonal green upper with orange and purple accents. The insole features an illustration by the artist of the shoes inspiration, that green skunk. The Nike SB Skunk Dunk High is a Quickstrike release that will release in limited numbers at select Nike SB accounts. While Quickstrike releases do not usually hold a firm release date, many shops are choosing to hold a celebratory release of the shoes on 4/20.
