Sneaker Of the Week


This Weeks Sneaker Picked by Soul conn Member De'rek is the Air Jordan 11 .
The 11's were released in 1995 and is def a very popular Jordan. The Air Jordan XI heralded a triple comeback; Jordan’s return to the NBA, the return of designer Tinker Hatfield, and disappointingly, the return of the unpopular clear soles that yellowed with age.(I LOVED THE SOLE)..

While the design of this model was premium, the quality was sadly lacking and despite the release of low-top versions, the Jordan XI was not the most popular of all the Air Jordan shoes at first, But When the Jordan XI's were retroed in 2000-2001 they became the fastest selling, most popular Jordan retros of all.


"Defintly one of the dopest sneakers of all time. Or otherwise know as the come back jays. The combination of comfort and style has yet to be matched. The first successful shoe to introduce patent leather and upper mesh, along with the also sexy icey sole:). I remember waiting in line at like 6am on a school day to cop my second pair blk/red. The blk/wht concord's dropped earlier that year! (1995-1996) . I also remeber being the person to rock my joints to school early.what a feeling, it kinda adds to a young mans swagger.hahaha The whole day you walk different. I eventually had to just put my pair on ice because of all the fakes that were dropin and peoples ignorence to factory varients now this sneaker I held on to is worth up to 400$ and up.most def one of my favorite sneakers of all time." - De'rek

Local highschool students favorite sneaker

In this post we will be selecting local students to interview about there favorite sneakers...

this week we have selected a local Bethel high student that some of you could possibly know who goes by the name of Mattie! His favorite sneaker is the Nike Penny Foamposite
"My love for this shoe is incredible, Out of all the basketball releases I've seen growing up and had been admiring. I've chosen this one as my Grail. Have you ever seen any b-ball shoe with the whole package. Style, Comfort, and Technology all combined into one. This particular colorway caught my eye among the Foampostie collection (royal blue/black). The royal blue stands out as if waves were painted on and the black just seems to blend so well making this shoe Unique and ahead of its time. Nike made the greatest basketball shoe ever to grace the hardwood floors of America." Mattie

Pk's Sneaker of the week is.... * DRUM ROLL PLEASE*





The Retro Nike Air Raid

The Air Raid was designed by Tinker Hatfield. The Double strap system looked as if it was just for looks but it actually kept the foot very secure for basketball . The release of this sneaker coincided with Spike lee's Movie "Malcolm X" , the shoes X look lead many people to associate the two. The Air raid was first released in 1992 it was initially called the Air Jack before it hit the production line. The sneaker was re-released in 2003 and again in 2008, the sneaker in the picture can be purchased at select Nike accounts and at your local DTLR.

" I fucked with the shoe because my uncle had them back in 1993 when i was growing up and i remember him getting two pairs and busting the other pair out in late 1999 ill never forget because he let me rock them to school i ended up just balling in them and fucking them up i wish i knew what had, the color way is crazy ill, the straps the sole everything about this shoe speaks to me . the sneakers bulky white sole is impossible to not look at especially on the black sneaker my bond with this shoe is like an unknown language its really something i think only i can understand..." - Pk

SOLE BROTHER SHOE & SKATE

Chris at Sole Brother just released the new Nike SB "Bo Rod" P-rod 2 and the Gold Trainer 2s

The P-Rod 2 has been the center of several collabs and special make ups. Tinker Hatfield and Hiroshi Fujiwara have both spun their version of the P-Rod 2, but now to the plate is the man responsible for Nike SB and current VP of Sport Culture for Nike - Sandy Bodecker as he creates the Nike SB Bo Rod.


This is the first high top version of the P-Rod to be released which takes on almost the silhouette of the Dunk High. There are more high tops to release on the horizon such as a “J-Rod 2″. These limited sneakers have released now at select Nike SB accounts including Goods in Seattle.
