Air Jordan + Nike Kobe Autograph Display @ Nike Incheon.

Air Jordan + Nike Kobe Autograph Display @ Nike Incheon

A new NikeStore opened in Incheon, South Korea this May, and like all Swoosh flagships, the Incheon spot has its fair share of impressive displays. Perhaps none is more unique or valuable as the Nike Basketball ‘locker room’ in the 3rd floor lounge that features what might be the most neglected TV in SE Asia. That’s cos you’re not likely to care about what’s on the tube when you can come face to face with autographed kicks from the two greatest shooting guards of the last quarter-century. Inside display case pedestals are signed copies of the Air Jordan VI and XI Defining Moments Pack, along with the home and away versions of the Nike Zoom Kobe V ‘Big Stage’. Gold sharpie marks on these pairs remind one of the eleven NBA championships and three Olympic gold medals shared between Michael and Kobe, and you can see more of the Nike Incheon store display when you click the jump below. via IST.

One of the more curious partnerships of this year has been the Emporio Armani x Reebok EA7 Collection; the high-end fashion label teamed up with the athletic apparel outfitter to introduce a collection of sleek lifestyle silhouettes with Reebok’s comfort and technology. Shoes like the Pump Vintage Mid utilizes Reebok Pump on a mid-cut street-wear lifestyle shoe, while the sportier Pump 7 Running shoe aptly combines athletics and aesthetics from both labels. the Emporio Armani x Reebok EA7 Footwear collection just hit stores so take a look at the gallery after the jump and head over to Reebok to cop a pair. via HS.

Converse All-Star Leather D-Ring – Black + Brown.

Converse All Star Leather D Ring   Black + Brown

Sneaker brands have branched out into boot territory more than ever before this year. Not only does every brand have their own ‘real’ boots these days, but most are also applying rugged hiking/workboot construction to their classic models. Take for example the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Leather D-Ring, a shoe that lives up to its name quite nicely. These joints are a bit tougher than your average Chucks, with two toned suede uppers serving as the base for metal hex eyelets and D-rings on the top two. Pairs in brown with red laces and black with blue are both familiar, yet among the freshest sneaker-boots we’ve seen for the holiday season.
