Nike Sportswear is among the leaders in elevating the ‘tonal’ look to trend royalty status. Here’s a perfect example of why they should keep on rolling, because the Nike Air Max 1 would look superb in a whole rainbow of suede styles like this. Here we have a downright regal mix of purple shades that is not only carefully selected, but also arranged in just the right way so as to amplify Tinker Hatfield’s familiar genius. An AM1 answer to all those EXT drops that’ve been so popular of late, you can see more of the purple suede Air Max 1 below as we wait for a release date.

It was a little over two weeks ago that Sneaker News alerted you to a new Nike Air Max 1 Essential in white, grey, black and yellow. It’s an accessible colorway that has a summer sunshine pop, and apparently one so perfect for the warm weather months that Nike Sportswear will take another crack at it rather quickly. Strip out the black, mix up the blocking so yellow takes center stage on the mudguard and you’ve got a result that’s proof of why both should exist even if close on paper. Let us know how this style compares to the April drop and stick be sure to check back with us for release info on this grey/yellow Air Max 1 Essential.

One of the more engaging stories in the sneaker community over the last two years was the emergence of the ShoeZeum that was owned, operated, and curated by Jordan Geller – one of the most enthusiastic sneaker collectors ever to lace up a pair of shoes. Sneaker News had the fortunate opportunity to not only break the ShoeZeum story wide open in 2011, but also to be at the grand opening of the ShoeZeum Las Vegas in August of 2012; creating a near-complete sneaker collection filled with the most amazing heat on the planet and having it available for public viewing is a feat that no other person in the world might have been able to accomplish, but Jordan has put a lot of time, work and money into this, and after an impressive run, he’s ready to move on to a new chapter.
Beginning last night, Jordan is putting almost the entire ShoeZeum collection up for grabs on eBay, listing either 9, 23, or 45 different individual items per day. That gives sneaker collectors a rare chance to purchase some of the most sought-after shoes on the planet, and with every single auction starting off at $0.99, it’s anyone’s game – and who knows, you might even cop a steal! This might be the biggest auction event in sneaker collection history and there will be without question some serious heat up for grabs, so check out some of the major highlights that just went up for bidding and keep an eye out for more gems popping up daily in Jordan Geller’s eBay store – shoezeum on eBay.
