Sneakers: An Urban Icon

18

July

The Dunk was first introduced to the world in the mid 1980s. Most colleges and university basketball wore Dunks during those days, and since being reintroduced at the end of the 1900s, Nike Dunk sneakers have planted themselves firmly in the urban fashion world.

The Dunk of today has a lower profile outer sole than the original. The reason for this was to provide the daily wearer a lighter weight shoe. The Dunk uses what Nike refers to as “College Colors’ and the company signed some college B-ball teams to exclusive Dunk sponsorship deals. The deal was that each pair of Dunks matched the teams colors.  Today you can purchase non-team colors and hip hop artists and celebrities are routinely spotted wearing Nike Dunks.

Air Jordans or simply Jordans, were first made for and endorsed by basketball great Michael Jordan. Air Jordans are now sold by Jordan Brand which is a spin-off of Nike. If you are lucky enough to see Air Jordans for sale you will have the chance to own a truely classic basketball shoe.
Air Jordans are collected, believe it or not, and the collectors classify the line by year and model. Air Jordans are mostly sold online, but can also be purchased at sneaker retailers and boutiques.

Air Jordan shoes are so popular that they are counterfeited. The counterfeiters are mainly based in China and these fake Air Jordans are most usually sold on Ebay. Air Jordan shoes are, and will continue to be, THE premier sneaker in the world.

July

When you hear the name Chanel, your mind immediately goes to Chanel No. 5 perfume, correct? Chanel is known for their outstanding line of colognes and perfumes, but did you know that Chanel also makes an outstanding collection of great looking designer handbags and purses?

Chanel purses are all the rage today. The collection is vast and the handbags are designed to carry with you on a weekend getaway, to the opera or for a night out with the ladies. The rich and famous in Hollywood, including Oprah, all have at least one great Chanel purse or handbag in their collection. Unfortunately many of us cannot afford to own a Chanel. They are a bit on the pricey side so we are forced to sit back and admire the bags from afar.

But wait. We can own a Chanel. There are a great deal of replica Chanel handbags for sale today that are the mirror images of the orginals. Yes, the copies being made are so well made that it takes an expert to tell the difference. These replica Chanel bags are becoming more and more popular as women are discovering how really great they are.
Replica products used to get a bad rap. They were made shoddy and it was obvious that they were fakes. This has changed today. Now the bags being produced are of outstanding quality and a great deal of detailing is put into each and every bag to mimic the original in every way.


Great Shoes Are Legendary

July

Have you ever seen a guy all dressed up from head to toe, only for your eyes to wander down to his feet and he is wearing a pair of old sneakers, or worse yet, some scuffed up penny loafers? Ugh! It doesn’t matter how expensive your clothing is, if you have on a pair of lousy shoes, it ruins the entire look.
Men of class know how to dress for success. Everything that hangs in their closet is a top name brand, even the pajamas and leisure wear. If you look down, you will no doubt see Christian Louboutin shoes lined up as well as other top-of-the line designer footwear. Men with class and men with style wear mens True Religion jeans for example and not just any brand that happened to be on sale one day at the mall.

A well-dressed man knows the importance of having great shoes. They say shoes make the man and that is very right. If you have on the wrong shoes at a job interview or while making a sales pitch at a marketing meeting, chances are good that your ideas will be dismissed. On the other hand, if you are wearing the latest pair of Louis Vuitton shoes, people will sit up and take notice. This is how it works, be it right or wrong. Fashion is important in our society and knowing how to dress correctly can literally determine your success in life.

Louis Vuitton handbags are loved the world over. You see the high-fashion models in Paris jaunting down the boutique lined streets carrying them and Carrie and her gal pals on Sex in the City have sported LV handbags on several occasions. LV is revered, respected and bought by the world’s rich, famous and by ordinary middle class people as well,  who adore the great styling that LV offers.

Jet setters the world over are seen pulling Louis Vuitton luggage through busy airports everywhere. LV luggage is not cheap so not everyone has a wallet thick enough  to be able to own it. If you were to look closely at some of the LV luggage spotted in train stations and airports the world over, you should not be surprised to find that some is actually Louis Vuitton replica luggage. These ‘knock off’ versions look exactly the same as the original, and you would have to examine the inside of it to see the difference.

Louis Vuitton knockoffs are being sold quickly, meaning more people than ever before are enjoying showing off the LV brand.  These copies sell for hundreds and hundreds of dollars cheaper than the original, so it’s no wonder the replicas are going quickly.

July

The Affliction clothing line is cutting edge and for the bold-hearted. This racey brand of urban clothing is ‘crossbones and skulls’ inspired and worn by bikers, hip hop artists, sports stars and folks in Hollywood. Affliction clothing has had its share of controversy as several night clubs in Canada have actually banned their patrons from wearing Afflicition clothing inside the clubs because they deem the clothes to be ‘gang inspired’. This is totally untrue and unfounded. Perhaps the gang bangers like the clothing line, and so what?  This segment of society is not the only group that rushes to the Affliction sale that is going on in the local high end boutique. Some of the world’s most loved hard rockers are often seen sporting Affliction duds.

Designer shoes are great fun! They come in a wide array of styles and colors and are constantly changing with the times.  There are many people, especially women, who are not ashamed to proclaim to the world that they are totally hooked on designer shoes.

If you have ever owned a pair of Prada shoes, you know that not only do designer shoes look great, but they are extremely comfortable too.  When you pay several hundreds of dollars for a pair of shoes, you can bet the designers went to great lengths to make them as comfy as possible.
Gucci shoes are some of the most popular designer shoes. You can go ‘all Gucci’ and dress yourself in head to toe with this great brand. Gucci shoes are very popular among the jetsetting crowd.

Maybe you are not a ‘designer shoe addict’ but simply just enjoy a great looking pair of shoes. If you want to find a great deal on designer shoes, shop around a bit as you will not necessarily find the best deals in the local mall.
