I can assume that this colorway was inspired by this year’s NCAA basketball Natl. champions, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s team colors. Featuring and all university blue upper with white accents on the swoosh, Nike writing in the back, and midsole this is a very clean and conventional look. The gold glitter on the tongue makes this shoe very rockable for the female heads too. Via: SneakeObsession

Does the Jordan brand do anything just once? If you thought the Air Jordan I was the only model that would get ‘ruff-n-tuff’-ed you were not only were totally wrong, but you were totally delirious.

The laser blue sole and ‘Ruff-N-Tuff’ emblem on the inside of the tongue make this a great kick. Via: Kix-Files

Andre Agassi was an 80’s sports icon that was as well known for his tennis racket as he was for stirring up a racket, so what better candidate to receive a shoe.

Seen here in a the classic ‘tiffany’ colorway the mid is done up in a stunning array of materials including leather and nubuck.
