Nike x Transformers II Pack

In light of the release of the movie "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" Nike has again teamed up with Hasbro to create a couple of limited edition special set of basketball shoes.

The Zoom FP was crafted in the image of Bumblebee, a yellow Autobot that’s given the duty of guarding Sam Witwicky in the movie. The Zoom Sharkalaid was designed after Soundwave, a Decepticon that has the ability to detect and jam radio transmissions, which is represent by the shoe’s tape recorder graphics. The Zoom Sharkalaid is tailor after the evil leader of the Decepticons, Megatron. Each shoe features various graphics and details inspired by each transformer, and each one comes with the box that the Hasbro Transformers toys would come in.

The Nike Basketball x Transformers II (2) Pack will release July 10th in limited quantities in Hong Kong, the Philippines, Taiwan and at the House Of Hoops here in the U.S.

Personally, I like them all, but the one I really like is the Megatron shoe. I am trying to obtain any of these shoes. If you got the hook ups let me know and hok me up with a pair!!!

PIckups!

I finally get a chance to post up some pickups as I finally pick stuff up!

Thanks to my boy Brandon for the hookup on this Macbook Pro last week!


Went to KicksHI today, I was surprised that they still had both colorways of reverse jams for me. Also went to Leilow to grab the hat.

Update

I've been really busy these past few weeks and I haven't been able to keep up with the demands of keeping a blog..I am trying though. I have been working my ass off more than ever at my job since I graduated and I am saving up for my trip to Chicago and New York with my girlfriend in mid-August. It's sad to hear of all the deaths that have been happening (R.I.P. to them all, especially the King of Pop, Michael Jackson). I also got a new laptop computer, a macbook pro! Thanks to my friend Brandon for the hookup. My next goal is to create a mobile studio with this computer and I can finally start producing music with this powerful asset. All in all, I am working on possible career goals and I am also planning on obtaining at least one masters degree. I have had pickups but not too much and I am lazy to post pictures. I told myself that I would not buy shoes until the beginning of July, but I extended it to July 11 just to see how I can handle it. I want to be able to not buy anything until my trip though. Oh yeah I forgot, I bought a new camera lens and I am currently waiting for it to come in.

I've been slackin' on my updates because I spend less and less time on a computer. Anyway, yes Bape finally has a webstore open for U.S. customers here: www.bape.com As far as I know, items will be shipped out of their New York store.

Stussy HNL 1 Year Anniversary Party

Went to Stussy Honolulu's first anniversary party last night to show face and pass some time. Unfortunately, I didn't really know anybody there, except for the man who invited me. I didn't really care, I still enjoyed myself with all the food and alcohol. Just a few pics of the event.

The one year anniversary shirts that were on sale.






Here are some vintage Stussy shirts from Jules' private collection.
