Nike out of the Final Four

Davidson put up quite a fight against the Kansas Jayhawks, but with the miss of a last second shot by the Wildcats, NCAA Basketball history was made as all 4 No. 1 seeded teams advanced to the Final Four since the round of teams was expanded to 64 in 1985. Folks in Beaverton saw their last hope in Davidson to make the Final Four as all other Nike endorsed school had fallen in the Tourney. That’s right, Team Nike has been shut out of the Final Four. This is the first Final Four where not a single Nike shoe will be worn during the Final Four weekend since the field was expanded.
Fan apparel has long been big business for March Madness season, but this year fans could literally get decked out from head to toe. Adidas made team editions of the TS Pro Model available to the public for the start of the tourney and Jordan Brand will release the player editions of the Jordan 15SE for UNC and Georgetown April 12th - one week after the new Champ is crowned.

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

Is Nike Sb "Killing" SkateBoarding

DONT DO IT ARMY

Alot of Skaters and Skate shop owners are saying that Nike is a large sporting good company that needs to stay out of the sport that skaters worked hard to legalize.


check out the link some people have some interesting opinions on the Nike SB company

"Then, sneakerheads lurking in the deep corners of the forums, get wind that these shoes are all the rage and realize that the only place they can get them is "at all these weird local underground shops with all this crazy skateboard shit". 'Cisco and his boys' are pulling up to your shop 3 car-loads deep from 100 miles away to score these new kicks. **On Blackberry** "Yo! I'm at SB Shop 2! They still got size 10.5 Bison High's in! You want them? 10.5 and 11's? Word! I got you!"
last statement was an opinion of a skate shop owner who believes that "Men in ties" need to stay away from Skating .
