Last Thursday night (Feb. 19th) Russlan Karablin, known to the sneaker/streetwear world as “SSUR“, made his way to Moscow to release the SSUR III series: a Water Resistant version in a hunting colorway and a uber-ballistic nylon make up done with a variety of camos from around the world.
Selected invitees, media and VIPs attended the launch at a place called KixBox store, and a private after party at club Gasgolder, complete with topless models and all kinds of Russian debauchery. We just got our hands on photos (took a while to get back from Russia) Check the jump for the kicks and boobs.
Thanks to SOLEblvd reader “a”, we now know what New Balance 998s Kanye West has been wearing in London during fashion week. The sneaker in question is actually a 997.5, not a 998 and stems from collaboration between New Balance and high-fashion Japan based store United Arrows.
U.S distribution was minimal for these, but if you can’t live without them, the sneakers are available HERE for about $183. Detailed flicks below.

Nike is going to take both the Blazer and the Terminator and stylishly force feed you until you think both of the shoes are cool. You know what? It’s working. We’ve seen multiple colorways of each on the ‘net in the past few weeks, and this simple black/white with a flash of Volt is gonna do the trick for us this Spring.
Look for these Nike Sportswear Terminator Low Basic ND low top bangers on April 1st at Nike retailers as well as the brand’s flagship go to, 21 Mercer in NYC. A $70 price tag makes these a spring-able cop for pretty much everyone, so happy hunting. Hit the jump for detail images.
Some photos of the Nike Zoom Flight Club have been hitting the net, claiming that this shoe is Tony Parker’s upcoming signature silhouette. The dude has some championships, and is hitting this, but we’re not 100% that Nike is going all in like that. It’s likely that the rumors are correct and this is his signature shoe, but it’s also possible that the shoe’s that are out there are just a Tony Parker Player Exclusive for the upcoming Zoom Flight Club silhouette. The information we have doesn’t say one way or another.
Either way, the above colorway of the Nike Zoom Flight Club hits basketball stores (and 21 Mercer) on April 1 for $110, and make for a new look that stands apart from the Kobes and Lebron Sixes that we’ve been seeing so much of. Hit the jump for detail images.
Just saw these murdered out Air Max Flywire 90s over at Complex in an interview with Jesse Leyva about the hybrid 90s. We hear the black/black AM90s are a spring drop, but that could be just those Chinese whispers in the wind…
