Pics: Packer Shoes Showing Dominique The Love He Deserves
Packer Shoes Showing Dominique The Love He Deserves Forget Rodney Dangerfield, you know who gets no respect? Dominique “The Human Highlight Film” Wilkins. Before Michael hit the league like a juggernaut and even while he was in it, ‘Nique averaged 25 point a game for 10 plus seasons, put up 40 point games at will, and dunked on everyone that was silly enough to think they could stop him from going to the rim. In 1996 David Stern’s silly self was bold enough to leave ‘Nique off of the 50 greatest players ever list, not to mention the fact that the league still doesn’t recognize what this man did for the game in the 80s and 90s. Say what you want, but ‘Nique made Mike better.
Parker Shoes out of New Jersey recognizes this slight, and they have coincided the 20th anniversary of the pump with something very special for ‘Nique. You see, Dominique was one of the 1st official endorsers of the Pump shoe in the NBA, but he never received his own signature model, so the Packer Reebok Pump2O will finally give the man his due. The shoe is in Atlanta Hawks color way and also features the numbers “85″ and “90″ on them, which are the years that he won the Slam Dunk title.

Nike SB – December 2009 Releases
Although the month of November hasn’t come yet, Nike SB has already given us insight into their December line-up. The collection of several confirmed drops, including an all black colorway in the Stefan Janoski, a black / white colorway in the Nike Classic SB High, and a midnight fog design for the Nike Bruin SB. They are available now for pre-order at CCS and will ship early-mid December.
Nike SB Stefan Janoski “Vacahyde”
Stefan Janoski is making sure his signature model gets its due while it can. Dubbed the Vacahyde by the Skater Himself this picture comes straight from Stefan Janoski’s twitter. As always the shoes are paired with white vulcanized soles and we get the return of the brown leather laces. The upper is covered in tan cowhide, hence the nickname.
Huf x Nike SB Blazer Mid – Detailed Photos
These kicks don’t need much of an introduction, as they have been on the Most Watched list of sneakerheads all over. Check out the detailed pics of the upcoming Huf x Nike collab, giving us an honest look at the toe capped canvas kicks that pay homage to the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star. Coming in either white or black, check for these at a retailer near you.
Michael Lau x Nike SB Air Zoom Stefan Janoski Sample
Micheal Lau designed the 10th anniversary pack for the SB Janoski and in turn we see him rocking these special Air Zoom Janoski Samples. While we don’t know if these will ever make it to shelves we do know that they are fresh and exemplify everything that is cool about this model. A performance shoe so clean and crisp that it can be paired with totally casual wear for a relaxed look. Via Hypebeast
Nike SB Stefan Janoski Blue / White Closer Look
It seems to be a part of the daily routine now, wake up, cup of coffee, see a new sneak peak of a Stefan Janoski Nike SB shoe. Here we see the blue and white colorway of the sneaker that features a seemingly blue perforated suede upper with a white swoosh and sole.
Nike SB Zoom Classic Sample – Sky Blue
The Nike SB Zoom Classics are a shoe that we seldom see samples of, but here we get a look at a pair that has yet to be available to the public. The shoes come in a sky blue perforated leather base with an orange sock lining and brown accents. Nice shoes, but no release date or information has been given on these as of yet.
Nike SB NJ-USA Dunk High Sample
If anything is going to keep Nike SB alive it is NJ Skateshop. The northern based skate shop just received the first sample of the NJ/USA Dunk high that is slated for a fourth of July release date. I’m sure more information and pictures will surface closer to the release date.
Wale – Nike SB x Supreme Blazer Mid – Red
One must respect Wale on the simple fact that he stands behind what he says. The man who has been quoted saying that he doesn’t support SBs after ’07 is seen here rocking the Classic Supreme Blazer SB Mids. It is no surprise in the least to see Wale in SBs, or dead stock kicks, in fact at this point it is expected.
