Nike Dunk AC USA
















I loved my first pair of dunk ACs that I got a couple months back, so when I found out they made a pair for the US I figured I should get them too. Once again, these are just really clean, well made shoes. The whole upper is a grey canvas with a white leather swoosh on it. The midsole is a white vulcanized rubber with a black stripe running along the top. Great shoes like the last ones, only this time in a different color.

I first heard about these maybe 4 months ago, and I knew I wanted them right then and there. The shoe is just so clean and well put together. Not only do these shoes looks clean and well put together, they're just something different than you see day to day. The entire shoe is a waterproof leather. The white leather wrapping around the toe cap and side is a smooth unperforated white leather while the toe box, side panels and back are all a black perforated leather. However, the most eye catching part of the shoes is the electric blue tongue, which is also a unperforated leather. These shoes are very comfortable and look really nice, but my only problem is the way the eyelets and laces are set up make the laces look kind of sloppy.

Lebron VII P.S. (POP)
















Lebron James is reason I got so in to basketball in the first place. However, I can't say he really has great shoes. So far, the only other shoe I liked that this one was the Vs. All his other shoes look like moon boots or orthopedics. These on the other hand, are amazing. They're sleeker than all the other shoes and they look very similar to the Jordan XI concords. All around this shoe is really really nice. All the side panels are the clearish flywire with a black patent leather wrap around at the bottom of the shoe. The inside back panel is white leather is the Lebron lion on it, which I think makes the shoe. They have very icey soles with a nice piece of carbon fiber in the middle of them. These are very nice shoes that I am excited to wear.
