Held For Ransom. Again.

Ransom by Adidas Spring/Summer 2010 video lookbook has me on the edge of my seat. I definitely need a pair before my Miami vacation. I am lusting on these babies pretty badly.

Classic Summer Kicks

Everyone wears different types of shoes during the summer season. Unless of course you're in the armed forces or own only one pair of shoes. Summertime footwear has to be comfortable and easy to slip on. Socks are not mandatory. It's all about the fun in the sun and spontaneous days and wild nights during summer!

So here are my picks for classic summer shoes:

Sperry Top-Siders

Adidas Samba

Superga

Vans Classic Laced

It's time to get excited ...

We are exactly 100 days away from World Cup 2010 in South Africa. It has always been one of my dreams to attend the World Cup. I had my chance in '94 but I was young and broke. It's not going to happen this year but 2014 in Brazil looks very promising. So as the world prepares for largest event of the year, Nike recently unveiled the kits for the upcoming World Cup. What's even more amazing is the use of recycled materials (plastic bottles) to create the jerseys. 8 recycled bottles = 1 Futbol shirt. You can find additional photos and a very interesting read at The Original Winger.

Now if I've inspired you to relive your futbol glory days, here are a few of the latest shoes you can enjoy on the pitch ...

Nike Total 90 Strike III










Adidas Predator X AG

Held for RANSOM

I've always been a fan of Adidas. They're definitely heading in the right direction with the new RANSOM x Adidas collaboration, very sleek and stylish. One of the most plain and inspirational designs I've seen. And I'm sure comfortability isn't an issue. Here are a couple of teaser pictures for your viewing pleasure.
