Looking for a new training shoe as a small footer? The Jordan RCVR may be what you’re looking for. It’s a new model which will provide cushion and comfort for just about any activity you decide to do. Two new colorways are set to hit shelves this Fall – Neutral Grey/Fireberry/White/Night Blue and Stealth/Brilliant Green/White. Retail on each pair is a reasonable $65. Will you be giving the Jordan RCVR a chance?
Social networking has allowed the opportunity to meet with a number of like-minded individuals who share your passion. Through Twitter, I was able to connect with Lemara, a grad student who has centered her dissertation around female sneaker aficionados and our place in the industry. Here, Lemara gives us a bit of insight on what this project is about:
The Invisible Women Project aims to collect and document the experiences of female sneaker aficionados across America. Sneaker culture it typically regarded as a hyper-masculine subculture although women are sneaker aficionados too, their participation is rarely acknowledged. Their participation is often marginalized or objectified. They battle to gain ‘aficionado’ status and recognition because of their gender. Yet, they too obsess, buy and collect sneakers with the same passion for the culture and consumerism as other male sneaker aficionado’s. Female sneaker aficionados don’t wear kicks because of their fitness capabilities and the claim that they can tone and shape a woman’s body. They wear them because they want to stand out, to turn heads and have someone recognize the absolute fire on your feet and ask the proverbial question “YO! Where’d you get those!”
Check out the tour dates on the above pictured flier to see when she will be rolling into your city and get details on how to contact Lemara for an interview below.
Here we see a new pair of AJ 1 Phats with some big boy girl swag! No pink and shrink on this #teamSFS ready Phat 1 – which features a black leather base with a blend of mesh on the side panels and elephant print on the swoosh. A cool cactus colored green outsole completes this sneaker ensemble and #iApprove. If you do too, head over to Sneakerhead to cop your pair.
After all the chaos surrounding last year’s Concord 11 Holiday release, you’d think JB would take a little break from the model at least til December. Don’t be fooled, the hype continues to build as a brand new retro 11 low colorway is set to drop in May. The white and varsity red mash-up mimicks a clash between “Columbia” and “Bred” 11s but in a low profile. The pair you see above is in grade school sizes, and as we all know, every pair looks better in a smaller size. Check out more pics of this upcoming Air Jordan 11 low and be sure to head out to your favorite JB retailer on May 5 for it’s release.
The Air Jordan 1 continues to dominate the retro spectrum with more and more colorways dropping each month. This Fall we can expect to see a trio of new Air Jordan 1 Phat colorways hit stores for the small footed only. For your first look, you will see a Black/Cool Grey color-up that looks somewhat like a reverse “Shadow Grey” attempt, a Grey/Black/Fireberry pink look and a Metallic Gold/Matte Silver colorway which is very reminiscent of the grade-school exclusive “Dream Team” Air Jordan 1 from 2008, although the newer version will tote a clear glitter outsole. Each pair will retail for $80. Is there something in this line-up for you? Let us know in the comment section.
