WHAT'S IN A NAME?


This past weekend marked the release of the Nike Air Jordan Raging Bulls Pack, or DMP2, or Toro Bravo Pack, or Fire and Ice Pack. Whatever name you want to call it, they are sure to sell out. The pack features two Air Jordan 5s, one with red suede and another in reflective 3M material. The quality is much better than the recent Countdown Packs especially the icey soles.

TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALLGAME!!

ShoeAffliction enjoyed a beautiful day at the ballpark. No Manny, no worries! Even though the Dodgers lost to the Angels there was lots of action and good times at Chavez Ravine. It was hot out but we had fun! Enjoy the pictures!

PEARL FOAMS!!!!




Well Footlocker House of Hoops decided to drop the much anticipated Pearl Foamposite Pro today instead of the 23rd of May. It surprised everyone and had the sneakerheads in New York, Chicago, and here in Los Angeles scrambling to the store to get them before they disappear. Once again ShoeAffliction was able to grab a couple of pairs. The color is definitely not the same as the OG or retro but still very nice nonetheless.

3M DUNKS W/CLEAR SOLES!!


The Nike Dunk Low Supreme Spark features 3M material, zoom air, and clear icey soles. Check your spots as these will not sit on the shelves too long. Overall these are really nice and well worth the retail price. I think?

MLK KOBE 4s!!!!

With game 3 of the Western Conference semi-finals set to tip off tonight between the Houston Rockets and the Los Angeles Lakers, Nike decided to release the infamous MLK Kobe 4. Only the three Footlocker House of Hoops received them and there was definitely more demand than supply. Thanks ilnoj!!

PACQUIAO TRAINERS!


Nike dropped the Air Trainer 1 Flywire x Manny Pacquiao on fight day May 2, 2009 and getting your hands on one was near impossible. The estimated release of 100 was incorrect since Nikesportswear@Montablan in Los Angeles received 28 pairs. Manny Pacquiao himself did not get the 100 pairs that he was supposed to get. No matter how many pairs were made or released, these are sure to be worth a lot.

ITS FINALLY OVER!


If you were a sports fan and a sneakerhead then this past Saturday May 2, 2009 was pretty close to heaven. Sports had plenty of action from the Kentucky Derby, Tiger Woods, Celtics/Bulls game 7, and Pacquiao vs Hatton. Sneakerheads had many choices from the two new Cinco De Mayo Air Jordan 1s, black & pink Air Yeezy, and Pacquiao Trainers all releasing on the same day. People were camping out for as long as a week for the Air Yeezy. Pacquiao Trainers were limited to three cities and around 150 pairs. If you were able to grab a pair of Air Yeezy or Pacquiao Trainers this past Saturday then consider yourself lucky. Otherwise, you will have to open up that pocket book because prices are crazy on these two shoes. We were able to obtain the Air Yeezy thanks to ilnoj.

A DAY TO REMEMBER!


Saturday, May 2, 2009 is sure to go down as one of the most memorable days in the sneaker community with the release of the black and pink Nike Air Yeezy and the very limited Nike Air Trainer 1 x Manny Pacquiao. I am sure we will read on blogs and forums about the stories that transpire with these two releases in the next 24 hours. Enjoy the Pacquiao vs Hatton fight and be safe if you are camping out. Hopefully we will have a good story to tell when all the smoke clears.
