Nike Air Yeezy | Custom Gay Fish Edition

Nike Air Yeezy | Custom Gay Fish Edition

“Do you like Fishsticks?” ….”Then what are you, a gay fish?”

By now, just about everyone has either seen or heard about last week’s South Park episode, Fishsticks, where Kanye West failed to understand the quoted joke above. He couldn’t admit that he didn’t get it because he claimed to be a genius, and tried to research for the answer throughout the entire episode. Eventually, Kanye realized that he was indeed a “Gay Fish” and returned to his under water world, ending the episode with a hilarious “Gay Fish” parody of his song, Heartless.

An unknown artist decided to create a special “Gay Fish” Nike Air Yeezy custom sneaker in honor of the recent Fishsticks episode. Using the “Zen Grey” Air Yeezy as the base, the artist incorporated all the colors of the gay flag (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple) on the upper and the Nike swoosh, as well as adding a nice gradient midsole.

The “Gay Fish” Air Yeezy is now available on Osneaker. Price $1,500.

Nike Zoom Flight Club | 4 New Colorways

Tony Parker’s signature sneaker, the Nike Zoom Flight Club, is slowly taking the NBA by storm as more and more players begin to lace them up. Their sudden emergence as the go to shoe for several of the professional basketball players has prompted Nike Brand to drop 4 new colorways.

The four models include a yellow/black and a Chicago-esque red/black/white colorway, while the other two models were dedicated to Tony Parker (black/grey) and J.R. Smith (grey/teal/purple) with each shoe representing their team colors to the fullest.

Currently, all four versions of the Nike Zoom Flight Club are now available on Eastbay for pre-order, and should officially release to the public during May 2009. Retail $110.

Nike Blazer Mid [Black / Metallic Silver / Volt]

Nike threw us for a loop with their wacky “Kiss” Blazer Mid last week, but now they’re coming correct with this sleek new design, the “Black/Volt” Blazer Mid.

The sneaker is covered with black mesh around the sides / heel, and black leather on the toe area. There’s a twist of white on the midsole and metallic silver foil on the back heel & Nike swoosh. The contrasting volt stitching that trails along the sole, swoosh, tongue tags, and laces really made these kicks jump out at you.

The “Black/Silver/Volt” Nike Blazer Mid is now available at most Nike retailers like Premier. Retail $88.
