More Nike Pro Combat Football Uniform Close-Ups

November 23, 2009

Yet another post about the Nike Pro Combat uniforms. Just FYI if you’re wondering why it keeps happening it’s because, believe it or not, these are all extremely highly trafficked posts, so I’m taking that as a demand for more. Included after the jump are close-ups of each individual team’s uniforms, with a focus on [...]

Nike Zoom LeBron Ambassador II

November 23, 2009

You’ve probably seen a bit about the Nike Zoom LeBron Ambassador II, the Asia-exclusive LeBron shoe designed especially for playing outdoors (in fact it features ORAP: Outdoor Rubber Asia Pacific).

Nike Auto Flight High Black/Hot Red Available

November 23, 2009

The Nike Auto Flight High black/red, the shoe that combines the classic Flight Lite upper with a vulcanized rubber sole unit a la the Nike Blazer, is now available in stores. The very detailed upper is offset by the use of only one color—black—and the simplicity of materials chosen, namely that it’s entirely leather. Check [...]

What are the Ducks Wearing Today? (Arizona Edition)

November 21, 2009

Another out-of-the-ordinary combination for the Oregon Ducks uniforms against Arizona, this time it’s look like green helmets, white-with-silver jerseys and black pants. So far the best uniforms to date, besides the throwbacks, were the other tri-colored clothes, white/green/silver, so maybe this will wind up just as nice. No time to do a photoshop for this [...]
