LOUIS VUITTON LOW TOP ACE SNEAKER

Louis Vuitton has planned a low top release for their 2012 Men's Spring/Summer shoe collection in for different colorways. The grown man swag sneaker will consist of Louis Vuitton's classic damier canvas print around the toe of the sneaker with color matched suede and leather accents surrounding the heel of the shoe. Personally, I would have to go with the graphite colorway for the clean look. Keep a lookout at your local Louis Vuitton boutique for release information and pricing. Also, keep checking back for new information on Sneaker Piff.

Top 10 Kicks of 2011

This is the first top ten sneakers list for Sneaker Piff. It was a great year for sneaker heads with a couple of anticipated re-releases by Jordan Brand and exclusives that few got their hands on. This list was made up of some of the hottest colorways and most hyped kicks in the growing sneaker community. This list is made up of the exclusives, campouts, and all time server crashers. Strictly heat so I hope you guys enjoy and leave feedback.

At #1 we have the Air Jordan XI "Concord". The campout memories and server crashes are still fresh in our minds. These were hyped up a year before the official release along with the confusion of the sneaker being released in a clear-toe or milky. Jordan Brand waited til the last minute to unveil official photos and the madness continues on Ebay with resellers. This was an easy pick for the #1 shoe of 2011 and you probably won't see it released again for another 10 years.

2012 AIR JORDAN IV RETRO "ULTRAVIOLET"

Here is a look at the 2012 Air Jordan IV"Ultraviolet" sneaker release that will be part of the the Retro IV colorways being released next year. Back in the day purple was one of those colors that we all probably considered feminine, but these would be an easy cop. The only problem is that these sneakers are grade school (GS) sizes only and will not be released for us adult sneaker heads to purchase. Keep an eye out for the release date to cop these for your little ones to have them just as fresh as you are in your Air Jordan IV "Cements.

BLUETOOTH COMPATIBLE SMARTPHONE WATCH TO BE RELEASED BY G SHOCK

My favorite urban watch brand G Shock has done it again with another soon to be released bluetooth watch. The G Shock watch will be able to be connected to smart phone so that you can get updates from your cell phone without having to pull it out of your pocket. Just think, instead of looking at your phone to check missed calls you can just look at your fresh wrist accessory to check it. The watch was supposed to be released earlier this year, but due to the floods in Thailand it was pushed back.

AIR JORDAN "CONCORD" RELEASE CAUSES FRENZY: Charlotte, NC

SOME GEAR TO SET OFF THEM FRESH COPPED "CONCORDS" XI

Here are a couple of t-shirts to get you started off on the right track and compliment those Air Jordan Retros that you just took out the box and asked yourself what should I get to go with these. My personal favorite is the black premium fit t-shirt by T.I.T.S.

2012 AIR JORDAN RETRO IV "Cookies & Cream"

Here is quick peak at the Air Jordan IV Retro sneaker due to release in February at your favorite athletic footwear stores. It's been a long time coming for the sneaker heads out there and I have to say that Jordan Brand did them justice. The cement color is not to far off from the originals, but a bit darker and of course you have the jumpman on the back of the shoe instead of the holy grail Nike check. Not to mention that these bad boys will be coming in a OG style box. These are definitely some kicks to have in your arsenal to go with your urban fashion lineup for the new year. Keep your eyes peeled to the net to be ready these sneakers when these drop. 

2012 AIR JORDAN X RETRO "Chicago"

Sneaker fans will not get long of a break after the hyped release of the Air Jordan XI Retro "Concords" shoe release. At the end of the first month of the New Year on January 21, 2012 the Jordan X "Chicago" Retro sneaker is set to drop in a OG colorway. This is the first re-release of the Jordan X "Chicago" sneaker colorway so you better have your pockets right. It might be another 10 years before these drop again. These sneakers have been overshadowed by the "Concords", but this is a definite cop for the Jordan sneaker heads. The sneakers is going to be a general release.

You should be able to find these at your local athletic footwear stores like Finish Line, Foot Locker, and Champs. Let's not forget trusty Nike.com and Eastbay. The picture was provided by MarqueeSole.
