To further recap the special event that took place last Friday, we put together a video summarizing our A Night with Jordan Brand video. Take a look above to see how the event unfolded.
Nike’s Roshe Run model has become the choice casual shoe for many consumers, which presents a problem for the masses in colder climates. Listening to the pleading, Nike crafted the Nike Roshe Run Sneakerboot which sees its newest colorway released today. The Nike Roshe Run Sneakerboot Black/Dark LDN-Mineral Teal features an upper which sees a mix of suede and a quilted material, in addition to a subtle black Swoosh. While its soft cushioning remains with an orange hue, additional upgrades include boot-styled eyelets, raised ankle padding, as well as a geometric pattern adorning its tongue and heel. A stylish yet functional addition to the Nike family, this release is available now.
Purchase the Nike Roshe Run Sneakerboot Black/Dark LDN-Mineral Teal now at our Moreland Avenue location as well as via phone or email order.
Our collaborative efforts with headwear imprint New Era continue into the 2013 Winter season with the release of the Wish x New Era Tie Dye Pom Beanie Collection. Perfect for the increasingly frigid weather, the beanie sees a colorful all-over tie dye print, sure to unique flare to any outfit. Compete with branding from both Wish and New Era, the piece is completed by a matching pom-pom. Available in a limited quantity, you can pick up this new drop online and through our Moreland Ave. location.
For the Winter season approaching, Stussy decides to extend its iconic imprint across a range of all new beanies. Perfect for the shift from snapbacks to something a bit warmer, this collection of beanies sees simple designs with pom-poms and Stussy 8-balls atop a warm quality knit fabric structure. Carrying the usual Stussy aesthetic while staying completely functional, this range is now available at Wish.
The “Laney” palette from Jordan isn’t done just yet. The next pair of Jordans to come along sporting the special combo of yellow and blue is the Air Jordan 1 “Laney.” This classic high top basketball sneaker features a bold Varsity Maize upper in tumbled leather that’s layered atop a soft suede Game Royal Blue underlay. A nice addition to the “Laney” range, this release will be made available at Wish soon.
Nike continues the momentum of its Nike Lebron line with the release of the Nike Lebron XI Armory Slate. This shoe pairs the grey hue with Gamma Blue on its Hyperposite upper, with more colorful hits on the tongue logo, Swoosh and lace tips. A lighter shade of Armory Blue also finds a place on the upper and finishes off the outsole tread below. A solid new addition to the Lebron XI family, this sneaker will be available soon at Wish.
In recent seasons, Stampd has definitely come on as the new standard when it comes to producing some nice all-black-everything themed product. This is especially true for the latest headwear releases from the Los Angeles based brand. Both labeled “All Black,” the “Dope” & “Hard Hat” are rooted in the usual black aesthetic, with “Los Angeles” printed under the brim. Nails seemingly drilled into the brim of the “Hard Hat” give it a one-of-a-kind look, as the “Dope” embroirdered logo gives this hat a classic look.
For the newest release of the Nike Air Trainer, Nike decides to extend the domination of the Alabama Crimson Tide into the sneaker game. The new release of the retro trainer, which ironically is traditionally linked with bitter Auburn Tiger rival Bo Jackson, sees a White/Black-Cement Grey-Total Crimson colorway with Alabama-specific details like an elephant-patterned mudguard, the Alabama imprint chenille “A” script at the tongue, and an icy outsole that houses the Alabama logo across the left and right shoes resembling that of the Zoom Vapor receiver gloves. Coming just in time for the Crimson Tide’s showdown with the LSU Tigers, this release will be available soon at Wish.
It hasn’t been long since we introduced the up-and-coming functional streetwear brand ICE COLD NY to our Atlanta storefront. But in the passing time, the New York brand born out of a legitimate need of a cyclist to be seen at night has now become a success story, gaining worldwide renown and pulling off collaborations with some great brands.
For the 2013 Fall/Winter season, we had the pleasure of joining with ICE COLD NY to create a brand new piece for the colder weather. The Wish x ICE COLD NY 3M Windbreaker is a collaborative effort that takes the minimal and reflective elements that have come to be expected from ICE COLD and applies it to a functional windbreaker. With reflective hits along the rim of the hood, wrists, and the respective brand logos across the front and the back, this piece is ready to wear for any serious biker, or casual streetwear connoisseur.
The Wish x ICE COLD NY 3M Windbreaker will be available on the online shop and via our Moreland Ave. location on Wednesday, November 6 at Noon.
For the 2013 Holiday season Staple is gracing us all with a new collection of quality menswear. For this collection, Staple dials down the nature influences in its patterns in favor of a more muted color pallette, featuring minimal monochrome pieces as well as a range of splattered patterns. As usual, Staple keeps things interesting with its choice of materials as this collection even sees a corduroy woven shirt. A great pickup for any Renown Pigeon lover, this collection is now available at Wish.
It seems that the year of 2013 has seen a growing trend of minimal and predominately tonal color blocking. Continuing the trend in a major way is Nike, bringing us the Nike 2013 “The Monotones Vol. 1” Footwear Collection. The range features a graduating spectrum of grey tones from white to dark grey covering Nike Air Force 1, Air Trainer 1, and Air Max 1 models. The Air Force 1 component of the pack is dressed in a matte Cool Grey with a speckled splatter pattern on the heel, laces, and quarter panel while the toe features a shiny carbon fiber motif, matching the other two models. The most neutral of the range is a Silver/Midnight Fog edition of the classic Air Trainer 1 which sees a predominately speckled leather upper and a unique strap-connected mudguard. Finally, the Air Max 1 comes covered in the lightest of the grey tones, sporting a speckled synthetic upper and matching laces. Be on the lookout for the full pack releasing soon at Wish.
As part of the Reebok certified network, the classic brand taps industry giant Gary Warnett for a special makeup of the Reebok Classic Leather. Released as part of Reebok’s 30th Anniversary collection, Warnett took an interesting spin on the shoe playing on the sentiment that the Classic Leather is the choice for criminals, drawing cues from British prison uniforms of the late 1800s, American prison jumpsuits, and prison tattoos. These inspirations manifest themselves in a canvas/leather upper accented with embroidered arrow decals and multi-colored overlap seen on the side panels all placed atop a translucent outsole.
Reebok Classics has reached back into the vault yet again to style Emmitt Smith’s Pump Paydirt in a colorway inspired by one of Smith’s biggest career rivals the San Francisco 49ers. The shoe features an all golden leather upper, with red seen on the cross-strap, padded collar, heel embroidery and inner lining. This great combination of colors and materials sits atop a speckled white midsole and black rubber outsole. Be on the lookout for these releasing soon at Wish.
Miami based brand Miansai from Michael Saiger has successfully created its own lane within the accessories industry by creating unique and timeless pieces that have made the brand a success, to say the least. For the 2013 fall/winter season, Miansai has put together a sound and diverse range of bracelets that reflect the brand’s handcrafted artisan quality. The collection includes a range of leather bracelets with a unique anchor motif closure, colorful rope bracelets, and the polished cuff series in brass and gold.

Reebok Kamikaze II Mid retro from Shawn Kemp is back in a daring new glow-in-the-dark colorway. The shoe sees a stark white leather upper with a volt green toe box, tongue, midsole and accents.

Nike releases the newest iteration of the well received Nike Lebron XI model, giving fans a preview of what King James may be sporting on the road this upcoming season.

Striped midsoles and molded straps add a unique flare to these Fall 2013 releases.. The first is a white/seagull/filigree/ultra violet makeup, followed up by a porcelain/seagull/teal/neon yellow style code.
Not to be outdone by any popular Jordan Brand colorways, Fila is putting its own spin on the “Bred” phenomenon, outfitting its frontrunner Fila 96 model in the classic colorway. This release sees an all black upper with leather side paneling atop nice suede material. The red comes in with the Fila branding, giving the shoe a nice pop.
