Just the other day, I was talking to a friend about how I feel the market is getting saturated with the same old sneakers and almost similar colorways. I need to see something new, something fresh. Enter Nike Manor, one of the freshest sneakers I've seen in a while. These bad boys are nothing I've seen from Nike in the recent history. 

The mint green color is perfect for this shoe and the materials seem really premium. The fact that Nike went ahead with this with almost zero branding (read: no swoosh) shows willingness to do something differnet in 2012. While the color might be a little too much for some, I think its absolutely smashing! 

No release date on these yet but cant wait for these bad boys to drop.

The Nike Vac-Tech (VT) series has gotten a lot of love by the sneaker community. The all white VT killed it for me. 


Following on the success of other VT avatars - Nike brough this "Wheat" pack Consisting of the Air Force 1 High, the Air Max 90 and the Dunk High, each pair makes use of a one piece Vac-Tech constructed upper, covered entirely in a wheat-like shade called haystack. Each pair works with a pair of classic boot laces, an off-white midsole and a gum sole below.


The Pack is expected to drop next month at select Nike Sportswear retailers in the US
