20 Years

I already did a couple of posts on this year's 20th anniversary, celebrating
the fall of the Berlin Wall.
Now Nike Sportswear is joining in with a release of the Air Pegasus 89 that
will honour an historic event that symbolized a shift both in Eastern/Central
Europe and the world abroad.

Jordan VI

After showing you pics of the black and red Nike Air Jordan VI, here some
photos of one of my favourite colourways.



Originally the Retro was supposed to look like this....



Unfortunately the OG Infrared has been replaced by Varsity Red accents,
but still a must have I guess..

Bad back

I've spent the last 5 days laying on the floor trying to cure my back.
No walking around, not even sitting down infront of the computer,
which is why I haven't been blogging since thursday. After being tied
down for so long I am getting eager to go out and move my body
and brain
again.

FINALLY!




Finally the classic white Nike Air Jordan III will return to retail!
The Slam Dunk Pack celebrates MJ’s high flying victories consisting of the
shoes he wore while winning his two Slam Dunk Contests in 1987 and 1988.





The other shoe involved in this already legendary lineup is the Nike Air
Jordan II, which in my eyes was and still is most underrated.
A true classic and the only shoe of the Jordan line that was actully
made in Italy back in the days.



The Air Jordan Slam Dunk Pack will hit retailers sometime in 2010
for a currently undisclosed amount.


The Pump

For it's 20th anniversary Reebok is working with 20 brands around the
world, to collaborate on their own Reebok Pump sneaker. The Pump20,
as the campaign is called, will start to rollout soon at selected retailers.








Also the Pump Twilight Zone originally released in 1990 will return in 2010.

Falling stars

From the 2nd of october-7th of november one can watch shooting stars
on clear nights. But tonight it's supposed to be extra busy. A shower of
up to 30 falling stars per hour that all belong to the tail of the Halley's
Comet
will speed up to 60km/sec as they cross the sky
– so you better look quick!

Diamond in the rough

Last weekend I had a short photosession with my friend Mo.
She is having a baby in about a month and looks so beautiful, that I
was very grateful to take some pictures of her and her pretty belly.

Bönz Malone

Sometimes called the Hunter Thompson of Hip Hop, Malone is some-
thing of a legend on New York's streets. Born in the Bronx, he watched
first hand as hip hop was born in the 1970s. After dropping out of high
school at the age of 18 he became the youngest columnist in the country.
A former gang member and graffiti writer, A&R executive, the voice of
Nike television commercials, screenwriter and actor, his various life
experiences have contributed to his compelling roles in four feature films.

Inspiration





Celebration






1984
Andy Warhol introduced Keith Haring to Grace Jones. He thought that hers
was the
ultimate body to paint -- Grace embodying both primitive and pop,
Harings
obsessions. Warhol arranged for Robert Mapplethorpe to photograph
the finished
body painting. At the session, Jones stripped to her underwear,
and donned
a huge crown and rubber jewelry designed by David Spada.
