Reggie Bush and adidas team up to help Haiti

On the eve of the Super Bowl, New Orleans Saints superstar running back Reggie Bush and adidas have teamed up to create a custom designed shoe on miadidas.com to help deliver much needed aid to the people of Haiti. The Reggie Bush "Help Haiti" shoe, an adiZero Ace 2 running shoe personally customized by Bush, is inspired by the national colors of the Haitian flag and includes a "Help Haiti" inscription on the heel to generate awareness for the ongoing need of assistance to the Caribbean nation.

"The devastation in Haiti is stunning," said Reggie Bush. "Many organizations and high-profile individuals have given their overwhelming support to Haiti. Partnering with adidas and Mercy Corps to design this shoe is just one way to raise awareness, raise money and do my part to help the people of Haiti." 10% of the proceeds go directly to Haiti via Mercy Corps. (In addition, several of Bush's Super Bowl XLIV game-worn items will be auctioned off at ebay.com following the game. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to Mercy Corps.)

These shoes will be available for a limited time only from February 5 -11. They come as small as a men's size 4 or a women's size 5. You can also design your own colorway.

Go Saints!

Copper Foamposites

Recently Nike has pushed back the release date for the Copper Foamposites indefinitely. Rumors say that its because of a contract with Penny or that Nike is just trying to build suspense. Speculation also states that Nike and Jordan moved the date because of the release date of the AJ 2010. Whatever the issue is, Nike needs to release those foamposites, and soon. Many of those who preordered these are nervous because these websites have their money locked up. Many of those who were waiting for release date are upset because they now have to wait longer for these and many took the day off just to cop. A lot of heads are happy because they have time to get their money right. Those who paid rape price of $100+ have the last laugh. Info on the new release date still has yet to be released. Stay tuned!

Motorsport 6

Last night Footaction, Footlocker, Finishline, and Eastbay released the Motorsport 6's in very limited quantities. The Motorsport 6 was pretty hard to cop online, and a lot of people didn't get their pair. I know I didn't. When I tried checkout, Eastbay gave me a window saying that I had a time limit to wait for others to checkout. I then was forwarded to a page that said my size was sold out and my cart was empty. The limitedness of the shoe was surprising to many and those of you who got their pairs online lucked out. I'm pretty sure it was crazy lining up for these at selected stores with limited quantities.

Adidas Originals "JS Wings"

The eccentric Jeremy Scott and adidas Originals by Originals just released these two kicks. These adidas rock the usual JS wings style and also have nice details like the "grillz" in both kicks with his name, Jeremy, and two matching laces.

About the colorway, they rock psychedelic multi-colored in one of them and white/gold for the other, so you can choose one according to your mood.

The JS Wings are now available for order at colette.

Nike Women Air Feather High

Nike is presenting a new kick just for us. This Nike Air Feather High is a brand new model, with a slimmer fit and higher cut than the Nike Air Force One. It´s pretty awesome that they are offering a new model just for us, like they did with the skinny Dunks . Maybe they are just realizing that "female sneaker fiends" are increasing every year...

This cool kick comes with patent leather upper in two different colorways: Varsity red and white as well as black and white.
