Source: Reebok ZOKU RUNNER | Sneakersnstuff Blog (photos from sneakersnstuff blog) Reebok has entered the modernized retro runner market with the new Reebok Zoku. Now, it’s obvious Reebok is benefitting from adidas Primeknit, but what they aren’t doing is using a better name for marketing purposes. For some reason I hear Zoku and I immediately here…

Originally posted on Housakicks This morning I was on my way to the mall to pick up an order , and while driving I remembered that the Air Jordan 6 All Star Chameleon was dropping today. So I wanted to check if the shoes were still in stores; for a Friday release it would have surprised me…
Originally posted on Housakicks The Fake Black Air Jordan 12 OVO have been on the market for almost half a year; just take a minute to browse eBay and you’ll find several sellers claiming to have legitimate pairs. They are selling them for as high as $500 and probably paid anywhere between $80 to $140 to acquire…
D Wade may not have made the All Star Game this year, but it doesn’t matter when you are sitting courtside with Gabrielle Union. I haven’t been keeping up with the endorsers of Li Ning in the NBA. The only big story I’ve heard this year was when former NBA Baller Yi Jianlian, took his…
The shoes showed up on Nike endorser Neymar Jr. last week and the internet went crazy. Personally, I don’t think you mess with the classic. The Uptempo was my surprise resale shoe of the year in 2016. The hype is real on the shoe without the Supreme branding, but I’m sure it will be…
You can’t be a part of sneaker culture without watching All Star Saturday Night and waiting for the different kicks to show up during the events. Tonight however, the festivities kicked off with a commentary from Dave Chappelle. What was he rocking? Sorry about the blurred picture, but this is a pair that hasn’t dropped…
It’s always crazy to see the dunks from these guys, Jordan Kilganon, Justin Darlington, and Jordan Southerland, on the NBA Stage. It would seem the NBA would be slightly embarrassed by the dunk product they put on the floor when these guys have always been next level. I have to admit that Zach Lavine and Aaron…
Patta and Puma have teamed up for a collaborative project on the iconic Puma Clyde. The hardwood classic has been reworked in 2 colourways (in vibrant orange/biscuit and clean black/pink), with both renditions featuring rich nubuck uppers and signature formstrips atop the original outsole, finished with a soft leather lining. Details include co-branded tongue labels…
The picture is the header of Matt Powell’s Twitter page. I subscribe to this idea which is why I spend so much time on this sneaker site writing about more newsworthy topics from the world of kicks. Being more informed allows sneakerhead and those in the sneaker culture to actually formulate decisions beyond just buying…

This is a special KYRIE 3 PE for Kyrie Irving. Source: Nike News – Shoe Stream Okay this may be the dopest Kyrie to drop, but for some reason when I see it the first thing I think is Harden Volume 1. Am I Wrong? Doesn’t this color blocking look very close to James Harden’s…

Originally posted on Housakicks This is now getting comical and ridiculous; Adidas is milking the heck out of the NMD & boost. The brand is just randomly releasing silly iterations of the NMD’s hoping to suck in a bunch of foolish dummies who will shed top dollars for them. I mean what’s the point of dropping…
