Nike Hyperdunk Yi Jianlian New Jersey Nets PE
When Yi Jianlian and Bobby Simmons were traded from the Milwaukee Bucks to the New Jersey Nets for Richard Jefferson, that meant more than changing cities - that meant they’d have to get new shoes.
Here’s the new Nike Hyperdunk PE in Nets colors for Yi Jianlian. It features his jersey number 9 on the side and logo on the tongue. There’s no word if these will be available to the public at all. Via Sneaker Files.

Look for these to be available beginning Monday, August 25th. Though I’m not normally a big fan of gold shoes, this is a lively pair that will certainly get some attention. Via Hypebeast.

In4mation x Vans Halfcab
Hawaiian brand In4mation has hooked up Vans on this denim shoe and I’m not thrilled with the results. It’s definitely interesting, but it’s not very good looking.
These Halfcabs feature a denim upper combined with houndstooth. These shoes have plenty of interesting details from the red accents to the laces. Though these aren’t for me, you may like this collaboration between In4mation and Vans. These shoes are set to release on December 12th and they’ll be limited to just 500 pairs. Via High Snobiety.
