Ready for Jo-burg?

Hopefully this is the last of my backlog over the past couple of weeks (though I know I do have about 3 or 4 more articles to write). Hideout dropped a couple of Dunk ACs about 2-3 weeks ago. I apologize for any fans of the Dunk or fans of the countries they represent (Green- South Africa, Red- France, Orange-Netherlands). The black/green one also dropped but that was about 2 months ago (Black/Green-Brazil). Aside from the Dunk getting the AC (autoclave, in other words Vulc sole) treatment, each kit from the Six Collaborations Pack (France, Brazil, USA, Netherlands, South Africa and England) was designed by an artist from that area. Ofcourse, the Six Collab pack was really made for the World Cup, which starts in 3 weeks.
The South Africa Kit was designed by Kronk, France by So Me of the Cool Cats Collective, Netherlands by graffiti artist Delta , England by James Jarvis, Brazil by Nunca, and USA by Mr. Cartoon. The mere fact that Nike NSW gathered these 6 amazing artists for their pack is simply amazing. I actually like the kit for England (Jarvis is a genius). Anyhoo, drop by Hideout for the Dunks. You’re lucky I’m not a fan of the Dunk anymore, I would’ve been on this like Delonte was on Gloria James. Ok. That was gross.
im really digging the netherlands color way.. i wish they’d release team espanya!
haha! too bad, you gotta check the brand with the 3 stripes. As far as I know they carry ESP.

the team usa mr cartoon designed one should be sold here!
[...] World Cup Fever hit the globe in June but as early as May, adidas and Nike brought in their special releases for the World Cup. From Dunk ACs to Lunar Rejuven8s, Nike had their Country collabs in while adidas had their WC kits and Originals Pack in tow. Spain won it all and adidas sold out on their ESP goods. Hopefully with the Azkals push this month was any indication, football can be a Philippine-loved sport in the long run. [...]
