Summer-time has pretty much arrived, and this past week’s news in the world of kicks definitely turned up the temperature. Kicking off the heat-filled week was a first look at the packaging of the Air Jordan VI Infrared Pack as well as confirmation of a U.S. Release. The Nike Air Force 1 Low made a sudden surge this week, as we got a look at some grigio colorways of the classic shoe, and equally impressive was Nike SB’s June footwear line. The NBA Playoffs continued as Kobe, KG, Dwight Howard, and Steve Nash did their best to claim their stake in the NBA Finals sweepstakes while representing Nike and adidas proudly, and continuing the basketball-theme, we got a generous look at grigio summer-time Nike Basketball options. On the running side, another classic colorway of the Air Max 24/7 was also released and we got a look at Nike’s latest Air Max hybrid, the Nike Air Max Modular 98 SI.
The last seven days was also filled with special features, events, and celebrities. Wale, Drake, and a handful of other stars showed off their sneakerheadism, while the Nike Athletic Training Event in Northern California had us thinking about Football and gridiron sweat. Niketalk teamed up with five talented customizers to auction off their designs, with all proceeds going to assist the Haiti relief effort; the honorable partnership displayed the sneakerhead community’s generosity and unique methods of garnering donations. To cap off the week, you should start gathering your kicks and prepare some selling slogans because the Sneaker Con of 2010 is going to launch tomorrow in NYC. Get it the know and don’t miss a beat – Urlfreeze News has you covered.
