Nike Air Force 1 "Closing Ceremony" Edition

The 2008 Beijing Olympics reached a glorious conclusion this Sunday and Nike of course, did not allow it to pass without leaving a strong mark in both Sports and Fashion history. This is perhaps why they released the commemorative pair of Air Force 1 – shiny, gold-like, sneakers of the champs that perfectly fit Olympic glory.

The new shoe is fashioned in bright metallic gold. To pay respect to the China where the 2008 Olympics is held, there is a Chinese motif in the upper part of the sneakers. The body of the golden sneakers is imbued with intricate abstract designs. The designs are pretty much what you can see in the columns and roofs of traditional famous Chinese templates.

Get the Nike Air Force 1 and you will have it packed in a classic black 08/08/08 box. The shoe is available starting August 25. I just hope they’ll make one specifically designed for the new Dream Team!

Lupe Fiasco and N.E.R.D. Complex Magazines and Videos

It’s a wild treat from a two superstars. Lupe Fiasco and N.E.R.D. cooked up something great on a separate dish, that’s all thanks to Complex Magazine. The two stars bang up in a hip and stylish cover featuring art contributions from KAWS and Todd James.

KAWS’ popular Bendy served as the background for N.E.R.D.’s three members in a looney design! And yeah, scroll down for the pictures later and drool over Pharell’s cool shades.

Todd James on the other hand gave an out of this world background to Lupe Fiasco. And you can take that literally as Lupe poses like throwing a glass of cold water from outer space.

If you guys aren’t solved with the magazine covers, then maybe the videos could satisfy you. The videos feature the artists on a total shop-mode, some poses, backstage and behind the scene short shots and a lot of other things that would tell you these guys really know how to rock (as if you don’t already know that)!

Nike Dunk High SB - Marge Simpson

It’s sneakers featuring the mom in the greatest American family on TV – the Simpsons! You read it right; it’s Marge Simpson in a Nike Dunk High Premium SB!

If you love series and you love sneakers, you’ll definitely love this one. The pair features the colors of Marge Simpson - blue suede representing Marge’s famous hair, the vibrant yellow is for her skin color and of course the green swoosh is from Marge’s famous green dress. Wear this and the whole of Springfield will envy you!

Now if you’re looking for a shoe that has Marge’s face on it, we are sorry to say this shoe doesn’t give you that. Marge Simpson served as the inspiration for the design of the shoe, and that’s obvious with the choice of colors: heavy blue, green & blue! This hot sneaker represents what Marge’s sneakers would have been if she decided to play "cool" mom in Springfield.

It’s quite ironic however that this shoe inspired by the all American favorite mom is available in Asia and Pacific.
