Play Ball!

Opening Day is right around the corner. This Monday is Opening Day at Wrigley Field for my beloved Cubbies. Here's a peek at what MLB players are wearing footwear-wise around the league.

Evan Longoria in Shox...


Torii Hunter in Swingman Remixs...


David Wright in Shox Fuse...


Adam Jones...

Dan Uggla...


Mr Swingman himself, Jr Grif...


A peek at some Jermaine Dye PE cleats...


Also, check out these auctions on eBay for some Andruw Jones Jordan cleats and Scott Kazmir game used cleats.

From MLB feet to NBA feet, some snapshots from around the league this week -- CJ Miles in Jordan Icons...


DeMar DeRozan in Zoom Kobe V iDs...


Kobe in Del Sol Vs & Chris Paul in CP3 Homes...


Mamba...


JR Smith in yet another hot AZK V iD...


Al Harrington ditching his Proteges for some Zoom Kobe IV iDs...


...and Aaron Brook in some really nice AZK V iDs.


Last but not least, The Shoe Game confirmed we will see an Air Jordan XI x Lebron VII


I'm not impressed. I don't care they swapped out the woven upper for a ballstic mesh upper, I'm pretty peeved they changed the Swoosh to black from white. Here's the sample pair of Ty...


Not to be nitpicky, but Ty's sample pair are better by a mile.

Simply Magic

What a fantastic finish! Michigan State makes it to a second consecutive Final Four appearance after beating Tennessee by a point. As a Spartan alum, my wife is going bonkers...


Joining the Spartans in Indianapolis for the Final Four are Duke...


...West Virginia...


...and will face Butler Saturday night.


Who woulda thunk?

Now, a better look at the Bin23 Premio AJIX. I dig em, even with the red seal...


Pics from my dude Nick at Sole Collector...


And also a quick sneak peek of the Pippen LE available this summer. The colors represent the sunrise & sundown that hoopsters relish in the summertime. Pics also from Nick at SC...




And it was only a matter of time. This past weekend in Atlanta Jason Mayden unveiled the Foamposite x AJ 1 hybrid at the "A Night With Jordan"...


Utter wacksauce. More pics at The Shoe Game.

HAGO!

Barnburner...

If you didn't stay up to watch last night's Xavier/Kansas State match-up, you missed out on the best game of the tourney. A double OT thriller that advances KSU to the Elite 8. Hopefully tonight's match-ups deliver like this one...

Dropping tomorrow at QS accounts nationwide is another set of Futura AF 1s with a baseball theme. We first showed you the black duo in February...this pair features a white High Supreme and a "Dino Jr Dunk" SB-esque Low. Fistbump to Kicks Hawaii for the pics.

The Supreme High...








...and the luscious Low. The purple outsole sets is off!






And from my man Ming at Marqueesole, some new pics of a blue GR Kobe V that's slated to drop this fall...





I'm kind of hoping one of my Blue Devils trots out in a pair tonight.

And what's some Kobe news with out Lebron news! Some more detailed pics of black/red AJ XI-esque Lebron VII from Ty's blog...






Just too pretty! This pair is not set to release, as are the Penny Hardaway & Deion Sanders colorways of the scrapped "Super Hero VII" pack...


And speaking of Deion, the Diamond Turf returns...again (per Sneaker News)!


Dropping in OG colorways this fall. The white/red/blk OG colorway dropped about 5 years ago and sat on shelves....I am guessing the same for these two.

Have a good weekend everyone! Go Duke!
