Picture 280 

At an eye-popping $1,017 per pair, the Adidas Signature Team Commander sneakers are the highest-priced performance basketball shoe that Adidas has ever made, company spokesman Travis Gonzolez said. Celtics superstar Kevin Garnett designed them to commemorate the team’s bid for a 17th league championship.

There will only be 8 pairs made for the public for every game of the Finals. All of the proceeds will be donated to charity(It Better Be). For that price they need to come with a ticket to one of the games. The most I ever spent on kicks was 260 for the Jordan XVII wt/red and that was only because I got them 2 months early.

A Look At Cavi Clothing



CaviNYC.com

Cavi (short for “caviar”) has laid its foundation on the short sleeve woven military shirt.  Since the brand’s inception in 2004, the modern interpretation of the brand’s staple item has been, and continues to be, produced in New York City.  Bypassing fashion’s recent “washed down” trend, Cavi’s clean and crisp aesthetic creates a timeless and masculine image.

“Military never goes out of style.  It always has that rugged, masculine look, ” states Cavi founder Phil Gapud.  The ability to combine a freshly starched shirt with a pair of raw denim was the goal of the brand since day one, but it’s the brand’s fearless use of color, high quality standard, and impeccable attention to detail that keeps the line fresh and captivating every season, putting its own modern twist on military.

Cavi can be seen on the likes of Jay-Z, T.I., Fabolous and various other celebs. The brand got its start a few years ago and has managed to quickly build a reputation for style and quality. You can check the site to see what they got in store for the 08 Spring season.

Cavi is currently seeking interns for fashion design, marketing, promotions & administrative tasks. If interested email resumes to PGAPUD@CaviNYC.com

They were a major part of hip hop fashion back in the day, but would anyone still rock them? As I’m writing this, I’m feeling nostalgic. If reading this makes you reminisce about back in the day, you can visit their official new site, HERE
