Nike Air Force 1 High Supreme – Tokyo Destroyers Pack

KicksOnFire.com — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 20:55:01 +0000

The newest Air Force 1 to hit the interweb are these Supreme versions, looking more like a luxe work boot than a sneaker. Not quite a patent, the shiny leather is given a rugged feel with the addition of metal eyelets and durable, thick laces. The Swoosh is perforated on, just like a vintage tennis shoe, with a “T” crest seen on the heel, reppin’ the Tokyo Destroyers.

Nike 6.0 Mavrk Mid 2 – Obsidian/Black – Glass Blue

KicksOnFire.com — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 20:46:13 +0000

Nike 6.0 is off to a great start this year and the Mavrk Mid 2 is one of the reasons. The built to skate shoe is back again in a color way that will definitely transcend the shoes intended purpose.

Done in obsidian/black-glass blue the contrast on these shoes is amazing. The obsidian suede upper is perfect against the black pebbled leather swoosh and laces. Meanwhile the glass blue outsole does fantastic things for the darker colored components. This is one of those color ways that we would love to see applied to other models. Via Size?

Nike Dynasty Hi “Ele’Mint” Customs

KicksOnFire.com — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 20:25:26 +0000

Nothing is better than an awesome pair of customs. Over the top designs are dope but when the artist takes the shoe and creates a color way that could have came from the factory and it works that is definitely something special.

The shoes are done in a cool grey with black and blue accenting. Elephant print is added to the toe and laces also in just enough quantity to not beat you over the head. The application of color on this one feels right and these are definitely worth a second look. Hit up Fresh&Fly Customs for more details. Via SneakerObsession

KicksOnFire.com — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 19:31:06 +0000

The Air Jordan 2010 is the latest greatest offering from Jordan Brand and if you didn’t like them in adult sizes they are taking a swing at them in kids.

Seeing silhouettes shrunk down to something that is almost the size of your big toe is kinda cool and something about this design lends itself to the smaller size. While we wouldn’t be very interested in seeing the adult sized model with the velcro strap these definitely work. Via LTD.

Yesterday, we showed you the new D’Wade commercial, Nightmares Never Sleep, for Jordan Brand. The commercial shows Wade as a bigger than life aggressor when he has the ball.

Here at KOF, we were lucky enough to come across some behind the scenes footage of the commercial.

Put together by DMS Productions, the footage shows a lot of the techniques used to make the groundbreaking commercial possible. Enjoy.
