TSG 6 O’Clock Footwear News: 2/17/10
Good evening, and welcome to TSG 6 O’Clock Footwear News for February 17, 2010. Enjoy the 6 O’Clock news…
visvim’s FBT Classic moccasin sneaker hybrid is available in two colorways; sand/brown and black. They are only available via visvim.tv as a special order.
Another Sneaker Sale Report. Find them now at Footaction.
atmos and Reebok link up for another collabo. They designed a Insta Pump Fury which is set to release next month at atmos Japan.
Remember the guy that was spotted rocking those leopard tights with Kanye West and friends? Well, his name is Taz Arnold and his TI$A label worked with Stampd LA on a footwear collection. Each sneaker features canvas with original artwork by Taz. The collection will drop sometime this year.
Oh snap, the Neon Air Max 95 is back. They are starting to arrive at Nike retailers and are now available at some stores already for $145.
Here’s a better image of the collabo between Eric Haze x Stussy x Pro Keds. According to the info provided, the collection is now available.
Nike blessed Mayor with a 1 of 1 New York Yankees Air Force 1. People that attended All-Star Sneakend got to see them in person. These joints are packed with NY Yankees history! Sorry, but these will NOT release.
Greg Street’s Bespoke AF1 was inspired by the Undefeated Air Jordan IV. Street calls them the “Undestreeted” Air Force 1. Stay tuned for detailed images.
Happy Birthday to Michael Jordan. Happy 47th, MJ!

.
LOL @ THE PRO KEDS… THEY FELL OFF SO HARD AND NO ONE CARES ABOUT EM THEY FIGURED MAYBE IF THEY HOOK UP WITH HAZE PUT HIS STAMP LOGO ON THE BOX MAYBE PEOPLE WILL LIKE THEM OR SOMETHING?
IM SURE TONS OF LITTLE HYPEBEAST KIDS WILL BUY EM JUST BECAUSE OF THE BOX WITH THE HAZE LOGO AND THINK THERE COOL

THE NEON AM95 ARE A CRACK COLORWAY BUT NOT TO MUCH INTO AM95′S
.

.
.
.

Happy B-day MJ, helped make my childhood great towards basketball, even though I was born in ’91… But anyway, run down,
-moccasins are usually comfy but no thanks
-LeBrons VI’s aren’t that hot even at that price
-Not feelin those pumps really
-Those Taz sneaks aren’t doin for me, look like hot topic designs
-AM95′s are great, and I love the neon colorway, but depends on how funds are looking for me in about a week
-ProKeds aren’t looking too great, nice box though?
-Hate the Yankees, would never wear them, Mariners only.
-Those bespokes are alright, I’m liking the materials used, the orange laces also add to the standout of them, still wouldn’t get them if they were released
man…seeing that pic of Mr. Jordan reminds me of a Soaring Poster I had in the room back in the day…one of the best dunk contest’s ever…
Notta Yanks’ fan, but those Forces are clean.
.
Same goes for Greg Street’s Bespokes.
.
Happy B-Day MJ.
.

Screw mayor’s new york yankees kicks and his pathetic designing skills. I rather get down with dj clark kent’s sneakers & designs. HAPPY B-DAY Michael jordan. in an honor for your birthday I wore two different pairs of j’z to school. the white/red 12′s till 11:00 and the bred 1′s till 1:00 .
Yes, happy birthday Michael Jordan. Enjoy the money you’ve received from me, because it’s the last of it you’ll ever see. You old asshole.
AM95′s look good. But I already have a pair.
Don’t really give a f*ck about Greg Street or his (probably) dozens of bespokes. Actually, make that I don’t give a f*ck about anyone’s bespokes period.
Reebok Instapumps are hot. Everything else is shit.
…and the Yankees suck.
sorry AM95connisseur, I never liked AM95s & never will, so you could snatch up all the neons you want, AF1s aren’t my thing and the Yankees do suck, but I’ll snatch up those Lebrons…………..NOT
happy birthday to the G.O.A.T.
Happy Birthday GOAT
.
Mayor’s Sneaks remind me: Reporting to Spring Trainning started to day; Philly and Bronx Bombers again in ’10 final? maybe; Anyone interested in Fantasy Baseball Holla’ @ me
.
Neon 95′s again? Sweet! Here’s a pitch; how about some “neon deon’s” Diamond Turf’s anyone?
Yo G-Roc Eggplants Next Month – 3/20
Man Greg came weak wit thos ‘undestreeted’s’..he coulda came SO much harder with that concept
damn Jordan is 47 danm makes me feel old cuz i remember watchin him as a kid!! Air force 1s are wack to me actually selln all of mine exept for 1 pair but thats just my opinion! A converse king you aint never shy about your thoughts lol but i agree yankees suck!!
Well weezy23, you can’t be shy in a world where there’s a lot of shit to complain about.
COSIGN TO THE MAX WILFAREAL HE COULD HAVE CAME 3 TIMES HARDER NO
HOMO
Teal Griffs at Footlocker.com…copped with the quickness…
@WilFaReal — it’s not that easy when all you have is the concept… each and every Bespoke is essentially a sample.
I’m gonna be real biased here……
.
.
The Visvim’s crap on every shoe in this list. $470.00, untanned elk leather, hand made cork soles, just forget it….they win.
.
.
AM95 neon’s been available over here for going on two months now…..will grab a pair for sure….and the matching track jacket.
.
.
Stussy X Haze X Pro Keds X Guess what? X Nobody Still Cares
.
.
Bespoke = Big Joke….they’re playing people daily and sitting in their corporate suites laughing all the way to the bank.
.
.
Oh my god, custom AF1′s!!…never seen those before…..please AF1′s, find a corner of a room and DIE already.
LOL TokyoMike. Tellin’ the truth, and making it funny too. 800 dollars for a shoe, ANY shoe is retarded.
Happy birthday mj I sent your birthday money back in December. …yea when I copped those 12′s and those damn space jams muthafu**. As for those Moccasins, groc do you really have to post shoes like that??man those are hot garbage. I like those air Max 95, but ill wait for the 50 at footaction to get those. And no offensive but Greg street is black as hell.
I don’t even fully understand why we should care about Greg Street. Didn’t he bounce early at the Space Jams party that was thrown by TSG?
Greg street looks like Bernie Mac
ironwill305 trust me, you gotta own a pair to appreciate em (Visvims)…they’re the DEFINITION of quality. Some re-hashed Jordan retro whatevers made out of plastic-pleather-whatever can’t hold a candle to em….odd looking, I’ll give you that…the average sneakerhead’s not gonna look twice at em….but I’m tellin’ you…worth every penny.
I will be getting those am95s…..END OF COMMENT
JB confirm the concords already damn
^^i don’t know much about these Visvims so your probably right on quality. But if I were to see you on the street with these on your getting cracked on regardless of the quality or price you paid on these moccasins. I agree on the make on some Retro Jordan’s pretty disappointed, that’s why I hunt for og’s because in my opinion I think there way better materials made on the originals than the more current retros.
@23 edge
YES I WISH THEY WOULD RETRO THE DEION SANDERS SHOES TOO
.
THE ONES WITH THE BIG VELCROE STRAP ON THE FRONT
I BELIEVE THEY WERE LIKE BLACK WHITE TEAL AND GOLD
MIGHT BE WRONG BUT I HAVENT SEEN EM IN LIKE 15 YEARS LOL
.
I HAD THOSE IN LIKE 3RD GRADE THOSE WERE FIRE
IF THEY RETROED THOSE I WOULD DEF COP THOSE!!
.
GREAT IDEA MR 23edge!
how many times are they going to release the 95s!!!!!!!!!!
@Brinx, They used to be the most affordable heat you could buy, I think I paid like $29.99 for them… and don’t worry they’re going to be retroed this year or so I’ve heard. BO might have the spot light now him right now, but soon it’s going to be Dion’s turn… funny enough both played two sports… hmmmm Nike should do a pack, Bo and Dion? (The cocky but never did anything but get injured pack)
BRINX/23edge…….are you guys talking about the DT 96′s? Deion Sanders Turf Trainers?….or maybe the Diamond Turfs?….DT 96′s are all over ebay for about $70.00 a pair, and supposedly the Diamond Turfs are gonna get redone this year. Both dope shoes.
95′s are a classic, cop again x 2
^ I haven’t heard about the concords but I know the ajko 1 are coming out in april.
ironwill305 lol, trust me, I wear em all the time…..when I walk past some douchebag 15yr old thinkin’ he’s the only dude on planet earth to walk around in some played out retro Jordans, while wearing $500 quality shoes, I’m definitely the one doing the laughing…..but I do get looked at like “what the eff is homeboy wearing?!?!”…..to each his own I guess…..
@carter – Coming Soon!
.
@SneakerHead069 – Word?
.
@ironwill305 – Yep, in the 6 O’Clock footwear news I try to shed light on different brands that we normally don’t report on. As TokyoMike stated, their are many that will agree that the visvim’s are crushing everything in today’s news. For some it’s quality over hype, or what’s “cool”. However, like I always say, it’s all about what YOU like. So to answer your question, you will definitely see tons of different brands (including visvim) in this column you don’t like and some you might like. I’m just trying to add some different flavor to TSG, as well as give all brands shine.
.
@Converse King – CORRECTION, that was his party, not TSG. We just put the word out about his Space Jam party.
.
@23edge & BRINX – The Deion’s “Air Diamond Turf” will re-release in the OG white/black/red colorway this year (I think July/August). The white/black/emerald colorway or black/purple/gold Air Diamond Turf was never re-released. I don’t me to boast, but I’ve got all 3 OG colors…ok maybe I’m boasting just a little bit.

@TM we’re talking about the 93′s
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvWSlrXOmJo
On a side note, I’m reading this amazing book about Nike’s ad firm Wieden and Kennedy and I can’t get enough of their classic commericials like this “Vince Lombardi” one
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7xH8AN8g14
@G-Roc, I wanted to post that pic… but ugh… comment section doesn’t allow it (hint hint). And you having all 3 OG’s is no big deal (I now run off crying of jealousy, pining for the day when I’ll own them again)
^LOL
Did I mention that I’m getting the NEONS……..OH YEAH…. I DID MENTION THAT……THIS SHOE CAN RETRO 1000 trillion times if you ask me….
.
Take the tassels off of the vism and I would rock ‘em…kinda look like the YODAS from the ADIDAS STAR WARS PACK IMO
I’m shocked no one went in on the Stampd LA x Taz collabo.
I am getting those NEONS
.
.
THOSE SANDERS DTs ARE COMING HOPE WITH PAPI
My bad G-Roc on the Greg Street thing. I still don’t think he’s such a big deal though.
^^^You paying $500….I’m laughing at that. When i see someone with shoes that look like wallabees with draw strings on the side….im doing the laughing. 15year olds dont know better about sneakers more or less even purchase them unless they got a lil parttime job.There’s plenty of great quality shoes out there that dont look like sh*t and that’s not at mortgage prices.
