MY TOP 5 SNEAKERS OF 2010

2010 was quite a year in sneakers. There was definitely something for everyone. So many camp outs and line ups for kicks throughout the year. If 2010 is any indication of what 2011 will be like then you better start saving your money. 

I've narrowed down my favorite releases of the year to five. I only considered the sneakers that I have bought and worn. What are your favorite sneakers of 2010?


5. Undefeated New Balance 574


4. Nike Zoom Kobe V Bruce Lee


3. Air Max 1 Omega Pack


2. Air Jordan 3 Doernbecher

ANOTHER BUSY WEEK!

This past week has been so crazy from shopping, Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey release, Christmas day festivities, Kobe VI Grinch release and after Christmas shopping. It was so hectic keeping up with all the shoes that came out. I managed to get a few with the help of fellow sneakerheads @ILNOJ and @esco777. Did you get the shoe you wanted for Christmas?

Saw these Nike Dunk SB Yellow Curbs while shopping and had to scoop them up



And these Nike Dunk SB dark armys too



Even though the Lakers lost on Christmas day it didn't take away from the Kobe VI Grinch hype


And more pairs of Grinches

CHRISTMAS DAY KOBE VI COURTSIDE PACK

First off, I want to give a huge shout out to @rawrphael for getting the pack. Thanks! Packs were given to fans sitting courtside during the Christmas day game versus the Miami Heat. However, a select few were given the opportunity to purchase the pack through a Facebook contest and Nike Vault raffle.

MORE AIR JORDAN 13s

If you like the Air Jordan 13 model than this holiday season will be a great one because Jordan Brand is coming out with several OG colorways starting with the Flint Greys. The ever so popular "Altitudes" just came out today in limited numbers. More colorways are on the way including the White and red releasing December 18, 2010.

DOERNBECHER AIR JORDAN 3

The Air Jordan 3 is my favorite shoe of all time so it was no question that I had to get these Doernbecher Charity editions. As clearer pictures surfaced I was getting more and more excited. The red suede upper and black midsole look great together. And last but not least is the icey blue soles that are just so clean.


My pick ups!


Do you see the 3M?

SNEAKERNEWS

Seems like my picture of me rocking the Zoom Kobe VI Grinches are a hit. I wore them to Nike Santa Monica for the Air Jordan 3 Doernbecher release. A lot of people asking where I got them and how do they feel? Check out SNEAKERNEWS for more closeups. Thanks!

THE GRINCH THAT STOLE KOBES

I was so excited to post these shoes I didn't even write anything at first. Christmas day is less than a month away and the hype and anticipation of the Zoom Kobe VI especially the Grinch edition is growing strong. I thought that the Zoom Kobe V was the pinnacle of his line, but the VIs could top them. Enjoy the pictures!

NIKE LEBRON 8 SOUTH BEACH


LeBron 8 "South Beach"

This particular colorway of the new Nike LeBron 8 shoe has drawn so much hype since the very first photos that surfaced on the web a couple of months ago. Florida sneakerheads got the first chance to grab these back in October, but last week Nike did a wider release. The South Beach or Pre Heat colorway resembles the 1980's TV series Miami Vice. Were you able to get a pair?

NIKE DUNK LOW SB "LOON"

My recent pick is another Nike SB quickstrike. The "Loons" are quite unique and have been selling very well. The green spark color  really makes these kicks stand out. Looks like Nike is trying to revive the SB line by releasing some of the older sample colorways. Did you get your pair?




Great quality on these SBs

SUPREME NIKE SB 94



It seems a lot of people didn't like the new Supreme and Nike collaboration because it was an easy pick for my friend @ILNOJ. Most were not open to the new design because they are use to Supreme using an old Nike model and tweaking it (Blazers, Bruins). I personally like the Nike Zoom Air 94 Hi Supreme especially the Midnight navy ones. It's a great mix of old and new with a Supreme twist. If you slept on these you might end up paying an arm and a leg in the future.
