SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

mega

As you must already know I am fond of naming my sneakers. Whatever their colorway evokes in my fanboy memory is what I will call the shoe. Sometimes I find out that the designers had the similar idea for their inspiration.

Anyhoo…

Nike has been retro releasing the Air Trainer III this summer in a nice variety of colorways and materials. I’ve been copping them at various retailers for less that 50% of the original MSRP.

The hunt is on for these two pairs I have pictured. I am calling them the Megatron and Cyclonus Air Trainer III’s.

I think we are overdue for a Sneaker Fiends Unite! NYC tour. I’m excited to see what ‘Back 2 School’ pricepoints will be available.

How about Saturday 08.29.09?

    Damn!! I mean … That’s my wedding anniversary weekend. What’s good with 08.22.09? I’ll be in the NYC that weekend.

  2. Barring death or dismemberment, I’m in (ll). Any interest deep BK & Queens fiending, to wit:

    1) Brownsville– Pitkin, Belmont, Rockaway Ave

    2) City Line– Liberty Ave

    3) Richmond Hill– Liberty Ave

    There is, by the way, some insane food in Richmond of the Trini/Guyanese variety, including some insane halal fried chicken and lotsa healthier stuff too.

    If Sneaker Fiends were totally crazy they could take the train out to Rockaway Beach afterwards but what to do with the boxes?

  13. Seattle Slim says:

    WHAT?! You know I’ve been waiting for Nike to release something like this again? They already did the Transformers joints in like 2007. I called everywhere in this bum ass state. They didn’t even know what I was talking about 🙁 And my situation precludes me from traveling to NY right now. Man, FML….

  14. Seattle Slim says:

    P.S. This is why I fux with you because you know shit like TF names like Cyclonus. YES!

  15. Nessia says:

    The Top pair are at various Nike Outlets in LI for $50

  16. DirtyJerz says:

    Southside Nike Factory Store gots a wild arsenal of kicks for back to school. I was just there a few minutes ago, and of course I killed ’em. If youre in Chicago get today’s Defender newspaper get that official additional 20% off of everything. That coupon is good money until Aug 16th.

  17. Dan Love says:

    Dallas – The time has come for me to partake in an NYC SFU Tour. When you confirm a date I’ll be there. I’ve got 3 weeks in NYC before my job starts with very little to do other than explore the city.

    Look forward to it!
