Diesel Watches

"BE STUPID" 

         An interesting slogan for one of the world's more successful apparel, and more recently; watch companies. However, interesting none the less.

         Diesel has been a leader in fashion for more then two decades. However, it was not always like that. Originally founded in 1978, by Renzo Rosso, Diesel experienced many tough times before its meteoric rise in popularity and fame. Widely known for their popular jeans and clothing, watches have been a staple in their organization for much of the last decade. Started as a small company with big dreams, its new "be stupid" campaign is a tribute to creativity which is often times mistaken for "stupidity". If that's the case. Then, my friends, diesel is one of the stupidest of them all.

Air Max 2010

      What can be said about Air Max's that hasn't already been said about some of the best sneakers that Nike has produced. Maybe the only thing that Jordan never dominated, Nike has consistently produced stylish sneakers outside of the Jordan legacy. Besides Air Force's, Air Max's have been the cornerstone of a Nike collection that today, still dominates the market.

       Air Max is famous for releasing "of year" sneakers. Whether it be the memorable soles of the 95's or the classic styling's of the 90's every couple of years Nike out does itself. The 2010's prove no different. The sole features the patented air bubble which was originated with the 95's but have steadily improved since. Keeping a clear consistency around the shoe, it literally feels like you're walking on an air mattress. Besides the stylish stitching which can be compared to the air stabs, the 2010's have added fly wire into the mix. Flywire, is a light weight wiring that provides support for your feet when you're working out; but, lets be honest...it simply looks hot.

       Well people, to quantify the 2010's in a blog would simply be impossible. Make sure you check them out yourself, then maybe you'll understand Nike's success.

Air Jordan Retro 7's "Bordeaux"

                We briefly covered the Air Jordan 7’s in our “Air Jordan 7 Orion” blog. However, the Jordan brand has released the highly anticipated and highly coveted Air Jordan Retro 7 “Bordeaux” edition. Before we delve into the concept and name, let’s take a brief moment to recognize the greatest basketball player to ever walk.

                The Air Jordan 7’s were originally released in 1992 with Jordan gunning for his second championship. Originally debuted in the All Star game, they were overshadowed by the return of the great Earvin “Magic” Johnson who had been recently diagnosed with HIV.  This marked one of the few times that Jordan lost out on an All Star MVP trophy. Regardless, Jordan claimed his second championship that year.

                “Bordeaux” is the name of a town in France that produces some of the smoothest and most expensive wine and is immediately noticeable by it deep red hue. Famous for its “First Growth” wines, in many respects Bordeaux is the leader in vintage wines and the blueprint for what we consider good wine today.

                Combine these two concepts and what we have is one of the most unique and sought-after Retro 7 releases in recent memory. Like the smoothness and uniqueness of the wine, Jordan’s game became the trendsetter too superstar’s today. Welcome to the Air Jordan Retro7’s Bordeaux.

UGG Boots

               For years UGG boots have been serving the public with stylish comfort that no other boot company has  matched. Although the origin of the UGG boot is sometimes disputed, the future of the UGG boot is constantly being realized today.

                Many accounts have the UGG boot originating back in the early 1930’s in either Australia, or possibly New Zealand. Used originally by fighter pilots - especially during World War 2 - the UGG has been a successful staple for eight plus decades. However, the popularity in North America was not fully realized until the 1960’s, when surfers used them to keep their feet warm in between tides. Thus, the boot began its meteoric rise into our society today.

                Made of the finest sheep skin, the UGG company has the manufacturing of these boots down to a T. Known for their warmth and comfort, the UGG boots are unmatched. Although there are many substitutes floating around the “flying ugg” is truly unique. Made with handpicked sheep skins and fleece, they should not be confused by their “kangaroo” competitors.

                For eight decades, the UGG boot has been providing comfort, style and warmth to the world. And trust me when I say…it isn’t going to stop anytime soon.

Men's Nike Air Max Goadome

 

               The Nike Air Max Goadome, or, better known as the ACG boot, has been a center piece in the Nike collection for the last decade. Known for its superior comfort and style, the Goadomes are a pair of boots that are truly unrivaled.

                Originally thought up in the late 90’s the ACG boot wasn’t always as successful as we may think. Many competitors were reaping the benefits of the boot market, and early on, the Goadome suffered. Eventually, a Nike developer had the epiphany and dreamed up the design of the boot that features its timeless air bubble located in the sole of the shoe. The name, “Goadome”, is a two part name. “Goa” came from the music that the artist was listening too, and “Dome” was inspired by an early model in the ACG collection. Enter the Goadome.

                When you talk about reliability, the Air Max Goadome has to be the default setting for any boot. The flawless symmetry in between the seams of the shoe, make for a design that none have come to match. Although I have seen them worn with shorts, pair of jeans really emphasize the best part of the boot: the air bubble.

Well…that’s enough about these timeless classics, click the picture and check them out for yourself.

Women's Air Max 2010+

Let’s talk about the Women’s Nike Air Max+2010’s. One in particular has my eyes in a frenzy. I’m talking about the White/Spark/Black and Neutral Grey version of them that can be viewed above. Although simple, the colors create a contrast that pops to the person privileged enough to wear them. However, let me give you a first hand break down on what makes 2010’s the shoe to buy.

When you talk about feel and comfort, the 2010’s are unmatched. The sole of Nike has been a staple in the company since before soles were anything more than the bottom of a sneaker. Employing its Air Max bubble sole, providing comfort and support for the hardest of runners, the 2010’s carry the tradition. Next, Nike’s breakthrough in its flywire design has created supporters out of runners and stylists alike. Providing a flexibility that helps keep the shoe unharmed from the hardest users, and providing a pattern that is esthetically pleasing to the wearer.

Air Jordan Retro 7's

Welcome to the Air Jordan 7’s retro edition in White, Orion Blue and Infrared. The Air Jordan 7’s were first released in early 1992, with Jordan coming off of his first championship – on his way to his second - and his third MVP award. This was a pivotal point in his career on the way to his first three-peat, and on his way to Olympic gold. In 1992, on what is historically known as the Dream Team, Jordan put on a basketball clinic for the ages. Known for his basketball prowess, these sneakers represent everything great about the greatest. Welcome to high top heaven.

The Air Jordan 7’s are a combination of style and reliability. Predominately white, the sneakers contain a hint of Orion blue too warm into the red and black that compliments the soles of the sneaker. Even with Jeans the unique pattern running across the bottom of the shoes are immediately noticeable as well as the ventilation holes on the side. With shorts? No introduction necessary.

But, we know about the style that Jordan’s bring. What is not spoken about is the strong reliability that is built into the 7’s. With lace holes running all the way to the top of the sneaker, you’re guaranteed optimal ankle support as well as balance. Now, let’s not kid ourselves. You may not be able to jump like Jordan but wouldn’t you like to be wearing the sneakers that spawned some of the greatest highlights ever featured here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBjsdy0Y6ps

Be careful, this isn’t a sneaker meant for everyone. This is a sneaker meant for those who win at all costs. Not for the faint of heart.
