A sneaker social network similar to such sites as Myspace, Friendster and the Nike and Google ‘Joga’ project, has recently opened to those with invitations. The site is called Sneakerplay and here what it has to say about itself:

Sneakerplay is an innovative social network designed specifically for the global sneaker culture — a place where sneaker enthusiasts can connect with friends, meet like minded individuals and express their unique styles. Members can create a simple profile where they can share their personalized content, showcase their latest gear and pickups in their Gallery, and the competitive types can enter into Battles.

Sounds like a great idea.

Remember when Woven was the byword for hard-to-find Nike hype that acted as the prototype for the cynical, queue-jumping world we currently lived-in? Of course since then we’ve had Desert Boots, Air Maxes, Jordan Brand products, Air Force Ones and Footscapes amongst other Swooshed products taken to the loom. Of course the OG Air Woven was a handmade shock to the system, an acquired taste, that really pushed the experimental boundaries of fashion-orientated sneakers. That was then. This is now. Even the most innocuous high street staple couldn’t escape being infected by the creeping menace of the weave. An everyman kick given a treatment that blew minds and split opinion at the turn of the millennium. It’s a sign of the times or something like that- to be honest, we can’t be bothered to overanalyze it. It’s a plain shoe with a choice of either a red and blue weave or two shades of green on the tongue and toe, giving it an oddly Superstar-esque vibe, but the coloured outsoles are interesting. It is what it is and for those too sensible to take the plunge into fully Woven waters, consider these your ‘daring’ sneaks. The Woven Tennis Classic drops exclusively at size? very shortly…

Other than the popular denim Evisu soccer ball, they collaborated with Umbro. This soccer shoes is limited to only 6 pairs. If you can’t get your hands on those, there’s also a regular Evisu soccer shoe that comes in two colors: navy blue and neon green. Those 2 are both limited to 4 pairs each. Take your pick…

It’s a sign of the times that the customizers have triumphed, taking it one step further than funded exhibition one-offs and bringing their vision to the production line. In a time when the consensus from manufacturers is that a tired theme-pack for just about anything, from kitschy TV shows to animals, will act as a pacifier for hype hungry consumers to chow down on, appeasing their rapidly diminishing desire for all things limited, we need a little something extra. And no shoe has been made over than a certain once-cult mid-eighties ‘baller, but in the hands of Singapore’s SBTG, he’s dropped a product that doesn’t compromise his custom style, with a plethora of his Royalefam graphics, and some interesting logo placement…yeah, it ticks a lot of boxes- camo and Asian-only release status, but it’s an interesting project in that there’s substance amid the panels- if you’re not gonna leave ‘em in the box like some tinpot eBay sales person, these will actually last more than a few sessions of their intended purpose. Yeah, the new jack cynics who were scrabbling for Dunk releases last Summer like crackheads looking for crumbs will roll their eyes, but this is one of the most interesting Dunks in a while, so we got in touch with Mark, aka. SBTG to flesh things out…
