What will you be wearing on VDay....

Maybe girls have a thing for orange? In mid-December we caught a preview of a women’s Nike Air Force 1 low that sported what looks like a Phoenix Suns colorway, meaning there was some orange on that pair. Now we’ve come across high-resolution pictures of another Nike Air Force 1 low designed for women and also sporting orange accents by way of the outsole. While the midsole comes in white, the upper comes in predominantly astor pink with a sort of dinosaur pattern that is sure to remind many of another certain Nike Air Force 1 low designed for Valentine’s Day. Certain overseas retailers have already received this Nike sneaker, while any release information regarding a stateside release will be posted on here as soon as it becomes available. Enjoy more pictures after the jump.

Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke - Designed by Smiley

Take a look at the product of Smiley’s design efforts within the Nike Bespoke program. ThisNike Air Force 1 Bespoke exhibits a consistent exterior as varying hues of suede cover all the panels. Smiley then incorporates a material contrast with a croc lining. As for the sole, the midsole is classic gum and the outsole is pink. Was Smiley thinking bubble gum? Regardless, the pink outsole successfully augments the pink contrast stitching throughout the upper. Smiley leaves a happy-go-lucky final touch in the smiley face etched dubrays.

Nike air max 97 sports RED

The pictured Metallic Silver/Sport Red-Blackcolorway of the Nike Air Max 97 is now appearing at Nike accounts. As per usual, the color blocking follows the waves that are integrated into the design of the upper. The mudguard is metallic silver while the rest of the waves alternate between red and black. The shoe’s lining is white mesh, a nice touch especially if one plans to actually run in these.

The retail price tag for these kicks is $145.

Play Clothes x Haiti relief fund. This is a dope match up good job for getting out there with help ASAP

Haiti faced a natural disaster of unprecedented proportion, an earthquake unlike anything the country has ever experienced. The magnitude 7.0 earthquake – and several very strong aftershocks – struck only 10 miles from Port-au-Prince.

Many people across the country have already started to contribute to the Haiti Relief Effort and Play Cloths must do its part as well. Sometimes it is very confusing when donating do to the high level of corruption within certain charities but in this instance Play Cloths feels that Wyclef Jean is a man they can trust.

So starting today, Friday January 15th @ 3pm EST, Play Cloths will release a signature Jack logo t-shirt designed for the Haiti Relief Effort. 100% OF THE PROCEEDS WILL BE DONATED to the YELE HAITI EARTHQUAKE FUND, which is an organization supported by Wyclef Jean. In order to send the donation as fast as they can, the Haitian Jack t-shirt will only be on sale from Friday January 15th to Friday January
