Reebok was alone and at the top of their game in the aerobic and workout shoe category in the mid-80’s with later to be classics reissues mostly for the female consumer. Reebok has brought back the men’s Ex-o-Fit with a little bit of a twist with an added cross strap that was borrowed from the Reebok Alien Stomper that released later in the decade.

Two weeks ago, we showed you the collaboration design between BLENDS and DC LIFE on the Admiral Hi. Many of you stated that it was a very sick design. In the same manner we have now spotted a joint effort between Standard and DC Shoes on the same sneaker.
This shoe was designed in lieu of Standard’s official second location opening on Lenox Square. Inspired by the heavy red accents seen at both store locations, the Admiral Hi contains a 100% true red leather upper combined with a white rubber sole. Other details include perforated side panels, green custom shoelaces (drawing inspiration from the artificial turf that covers the floor at the new store) and a silver DC logo tag to the left of the side panels. In addition, this sneaker also possesses custom insoles inspired by the aforementioned turf floors. Via NiceKicks

Hybrid sneakers are nothing new. Technologies and styles have been mashed together countless times in an effort to find out what sneakerheads want. Plus 41 and Cellophane decided to create their own hybrid sneaker in hopes that Nike would catch on and return the favor.
Their concept is the Nike Air Trainer 90, of course the most classic colors were combined to form a nice combination of white, black, Infrared and grey. The Air Trainer and the Air Max 90 are classics, so by combining the two, you are either creating a new classic, or destroying two. Which is it? Via NiceKicks

At the price of $92, the Nike Zoom FP is a nice pair of kicks for the courts this summer. This colorway is a good mix up of Stealth Grey and University Blue. Varsity Purple also makes its way onto the uppers. The outsole on the heel is also done up in a translucent blue, which adds a nice touch. NiceKicks

We’ve seen a number of colorways of the Air Jordan Fusion 9 so far. One of the OG colorways that will be making a return on May 9th in the form of the Fusion 9 is this Black and Varsity Red colorup. As with all Fusion releases, the Air Jordan Fusion 9 as been met with mixed reviews. This particular colorway is a memorable one for me, as these were the first OG Jordans I was able to pick up as a kid. The colorway is a definite winner, as for the Fusion series, its growing on me, but I still would rather have my classic Jordans. Via NiceKicks
