R.I.P DJ AM...


Adam Goldstein (DJ AM) was found dead at his New York City apartment at around 5:20 p.m. on Friday, August 28, 2009. He was 36 years old. Friends called the police, who along with paramedics broke into the apartment and found Goldstein's body. Sources have speculated that the cause of death may have been accidental drug overdose. Drug paraphernalia (Crack Cocaine) was found in the apartment, but no signs of foul play. A rep for Goldstein released a statement: "Adam 'DJ AM' Goldstein was found deceased this afternoon in his New York City apartment. The circumstances surrounding his death are unclear. Out of respect for his family and loved ones, please respect their privacy at this time." (Damn... I'm terrified of 2009)

BBC/Ice Cream “Space Beach” Series


Pharrell’s BBC/Ice Cream brand is at it again. One of the earliest pieces of news we received in 2009 involved the attention-grabbing BBC/Ice Cream Waffle Lo. Whether looked favorably upon or not, eclectic releases like these have become commonplace within the highly renowned entertainer’s brand. For Fall/Winter of 2009, however, BBC/Ice Cream attempts to fly high while holding on to summer with its release of the “Space Beach” collection. Made up of hoodies, t-shirts, and even jewelry, this collection also includes a pair of Chukka sneakers in a predominantly navy/denim blue colorway with tan and white accents that all sit atop a completely white sole. Japanese retail stores expect an August 29th release date, so stay on top of your local BBC/Ice Cream retailer(s) in anticipation.

Infrared Air Jordan 6 (VI) Images – 2010 Retro











Those who are fortunate enough to own the Infrared Air Jordan 6 (VI) know how fresh it is to lace up their pair. Images of the 2010 ‘Infrareds’ have just surfaced, and most will be surprised at how clean the sneakers look. The shoes are highlighted by Chicago Bulls colors, and most clearly, an icey sole. The Infrared Jordan release date is still unknown, but rumored to be in 2010. The Air Jordan Spacejam release has been marked on most calendars for the holiday season, there is a chance that the Infrared 6 will drop in time for the 2009 holiday season as well. Brand Jordan has a tendency to release Black/Red colorways close to Christmas; with the most recent example being the 2008 Air Jordan 11/12 countdown pack, which originally scheduled to release after the holiday.

· Air Jordan Force Fusion IV (4) - Varsity Red + Varsity Royal - Cement Pack - Available

























Even though many sneakerheads claim that they hate Fusions, a lot of you were losing your minds when you got that sneak peek of the Varsity Red/Cement Air Jordan Force Fusion IV a few months back. The shoe has a bold look with some classic Cement flavor, making a lot of folks wish that a version of the Air Jordan IV would drop in this colorway instead. As nice as that would be, this edition offers a very serviceable alternative. In addition to the Varsity Red colorway, there will also be a Varsity Royal version that uses the same color blocking and Cement Grey accents. The release info on these went quietly under the radar and now they have just hit Nikestore, so if you’re prepared to make a Fusion exception for these, you’d better scoop up a pair before they’re gone.
Color: Varsity Red/Cement GreyStyle: 384393-601

Color: Varsity Royal/Cement GreyStyle: 384393-401
