If there was one guy that is more about Nike than Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman, that is Mark Parker, the current CEO of Nike, Inc. His superb loyalty to the brand and design vision along with a knack for business made him the perfect successor to Uncle Phil. Although he was not the one chosen to replace Knight when Knight first stepped down, but eventually Knight wised up and made Parker CEO after a lot of rumbling on campus about the initial choice. Nike as a company has grown so rapidly under Parker's guidance and as can be seen from his office in Nike WHQ in Beaverton, Oregon, it will be a very interesting and unique ride to the future.

Nike SB Kobe x Koston 1 - Staples Center release May 21st
Being a Lakers fan living in the midwest sucks ass. Being a Nike fan living in Chicago where the current Bulls superstar is with Adidas suck balls.
Nike SB is coming out with a collaboration with Nike Basketball to produce TWENTY FOUR, thats right, 24 pairs of the Kobe VI X Koston 1 hybrid shoe. And of course since it's anything Kobe, it's ONLY going to be released in limited quantity at the Nike Vault at Staples Center on May 21st.
FUNNY how Koston gets a Lakers colorway Kobe VI while the actual Kobe VI shoe never got a Lakers colorway released this year. Nike Basketball at its finest!

Super Mario Bros. x Converse Chuck Taylor All Star
One of the biggest icon in the home video game system/console would be the Super Mario Bros from Nintendo. Growing up in the late 80s and early 90s, there is non like it. Especially in Asia. Where the console and the game originated. And I guess it is only fitting that Converse finally release a collaborative effort with Nintendo to bring you the Super Mario Bros. x Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars that is to be released in Japan this summer. The collaboration comes complete with a Super Mario looking converse box that can bring a smile to all Mario aficionado. via Kenlu
