Good things can still happen – Nike Trainer 1 Debuted
Inspired by the popular Nike Air Trainer worn by world-class athletes Bo Jackson and John McEnroe, who ignited the athletic training boom 20 years ago, the new Nike Trainer 1 was designed to provide today’s athletes with lightweight comfort and support as they prepare for competition.
“To create this shoe, we’ve taken the very best from our rich training heritage and combined it with new innovations and insights from today’s best athletes.” said Kris Aman, Vice President and General Manager of Nike Athletic Training.
The Nike Trainer 1 features Nike DiamondFLX, a patent-pending outsole system that provides flexibility and support through multi-directional movement – ideal for any training regimen. A lightweight upper, with midfoot and forefoot overlays connected to the lacing system, works with an inner Dynamic Fit sleeve to provide a secure, glove-like fit and the lock-down support a foot needs. The mid-sole also features a Nike Max Air unit in the heel to provide impact protection and comfort.
The Nike Trainer 1 will be available in the U.S. beginning July 1, 2009 with a suggested retail price of $90 USD.

I NEVER KNEW YOU VIDEO
This is indie rap monster Cage's new video called "I never knew you". It's directed by Shia Labeouf (the guy who fights giant robots and discovers crystal skulls, yup, that Shia Labeouf...), since him and Cage are really old friends. Actually, Shia's talking about making a movie on rapper's life. If you don't know Cage allready, here's the link to his myspace, there you'll find infos and a short interview of him and Shia on MTV.
This song is beautiful, the clip is pure dope. Maybe I take it a lil' bit too personal, but fuck, yeah I'm a fan... Almost cried seein' that shit, damn!!
Teezy, thx, one love homie.

GRTSK X +41 X BESPOKE SNKRNSS
Everybody saw the pair already... but i want to give a little bit more details about these kicks.
When we have been asked by Nike to design a bespoke for Sneakerness, Grotesk and I came straight away with the idea to refer to master pieces, he came with the AJ3 ref and i brought the AJ Sky High.
Kimou overseas in NYC Mercer street with IZ the Tailor and myself in front of my screen through ichat video conf (thanks to Apple...) we prepared this before, so we did it quiet fast, we knew what we wanted!
So when you look at this AF1 Bespoke Sneakerness, you can see the color code of the Sky High, mainly white, the heel gray and the top of the heel red orange (infrared), so we tried to stick at the max to our references, we wanted to use white canvas (ecru, unbleached) but its not available with the bspoke porgr. so the material on the shoe is a white 3M reflective material (ecru,bone color) which is pretty cool because reflective is also linked to AJs, then we wanted the mid sole to be old white rubber, not available too, so we kept it white. For the sole, if we wanted to stick to our ref, it should have been gray but the only gray available was way too drak, so to keep as close as possible to our bases we took the transparent one, because we thought it will be the closer thing to gray, so we used this transp sole and it was also cool to had a little touch of fancyness in this creation, plus transparent is also strongly referencial to AJs (5)
Then you got the elephant skin, dont need to explain about that... the gray swoosh is 3M reflective (we stick to the Sky High’s color code) the heel logo part is 3M infrared reflective, the gray strip under it is 3M refl. too, the lining is white leather and the footbed is infrared (usually the footbed as to be in the same color than the lining...). the 2 pivots under the sole are white and the label on the tongue is also a nice detail, we had the chance to ba able to embroide the Nike Air logo in 2 colors, thats a detail but it was cool to make it the same way than the Sky High’s Label...
and for the end, the laces rings: Grotesk wanted to use the cross stitching to make 3 stitches on the top-side of the mudguard and the end of the rings line, to make the ref to the 3 red rings of the AJ3 (impossible to make 3 stitches where you want, you have to follow the all shape of a part...) and i wanted the Laces rings to be silver metal, like on the Sky High so we mixed the 2 ideas to make the 3 last rings in red, at the end its my favourite detail on the shoes, it works perfectly and it has never been done before...
if you look to all the bespokes already done, you will see the metal rings only on canvas shoes and never in 2 colors...
So you got all the details now! ho yeah there is extra laces, infrared ones ;-)
Thanks a lot to Nike to Dave Marshal, to IZ at Mercer street and of course to Kimou!! it was a pleasure to collaborate and it was a pleasure to make this international swiss collab for a great swiss event, Sneakerness!
...usualy i dont like AF1s but these ones im loving them!

KILL YOU
"With Eminem recently re-entering the Hip-Hop world thanks to an upcoming May 19th album drop titled Relapse, Marvel Comics’ latest real-life to comic book transformation features the notorious Detroit lyricist as he teams-up with the super hero synonymous with heavy artillery, The Punisher. The comic by Fred Van Lente and Salvador Larroca features the synopsis “Who’s killing whom? With Punisher, Slim Shady and Barracuda all armed to the teeth and gunning for each other, expect plenty of bullets, blood and betrayals in PUNISHER/EMINEM: KILL YOU” which can be read in its entirety online through Marvel".

MARSHAL'S MADNESS
Ok, this one is a bit personal. Just nostalgic of the Slim Shady LP's vibe, was awaiting for Em's new shit called Relapse (can find the leak version easily on the web now...), havin' heard the "We Made You" track and wondering, hopping Detroit'son will make it... And then I heard "3 am"... And now the videoclip. No glossy make-up, no sparkling photoshop filters, damn! The atmosphere remind me of the spanish movie REC I saw last summer... Shit, well done Marshal. I like it when you leave out the Jordan merch, after all, looks like all you need is a bloody knife...
Zombidou, this clip is for you my man, hope you'll like it.

This is a mix by my man Arnaud, featuring some Cowboy Bebop anime' sounds. Sorry for my night bangers, but this isn't a party mix. Shit is jazzy, but don't be afraid, not abstract stuff for specialized cats... Dope shit indeed.
Enjoy. I do. Word.
