Rockabilly singer Wanda Jackson gets a nod as an early influence, and the sidemen inductees are Spooner Oldham and two of Elvis Presley's musicians - drummer D.J. Fontana and bassist Bill Black.

The induction will be held in Cleveland on April 4.

In honor of the 2009 NBA All-Star weekend taking place in Phoneix Arizonia this year Nike and DJ Clark Kent joined forces to design a limited release Nike Air Force One.

The Air Force Ones were designed with a colorway inspired by the Phoenix Suns and were constructed using a multitude of materials on the upper. Theres a combo of tan nubuck and a micro fiber perforated material on the frontal, toe box and mid panel with a purple patent leather heel panel which has a little sparkle to it like the DJ Clark Kent Black Friday Air Force Ones. Furthermore, theres a yellow leather Nike Swoosh and heel tab, an orange mid-sole/liner, a gum sole and patent leather piping. Lastly’09 was stitched on the side.

Things didnt stop there though, Starks, known for their epic shoelaces was also brought into the project. The Air Force Ones come with a total of 3 pairs of laces including the popular Starks 3M shoelaces and a pair of lace locks, all included from Starks. Watch for a official release of the Nike Air Force 1 x DJ Clark Kent ‘2009 NBA All-Star Game’ in mid February

Reebok pays homage to the Chinese New Year with the Year of the Ox Reebok Pump Omni Lite shoes. The Pump Omni Lite is done up in a red and black colorway which includes Chinese inspired graphics on the upper. Gold accents are thrown in here and there to break up the colors a bit with a gold ox head displayed on the heel. Also included is a pair of insoles which say “Year of the ox” with the face of the bull and a pair of fattie red laces.

Nike Hyperlite first look


As part of their Hyperlite releases, Nike is set to release the White/Volt Nike Hyperlite pictured in this post. The White/Volt Nike Hyperlite features a White upper with Volt, Electric Blue, and Red accents. The tongue on the sample in this post reads "I'm in the F*#@!NG ZONE!". Whether or not that tag line makes it to retail, remains to be seen.

The Nike Hyperlite is set to release during the late Summer/Fall of 2009

Johnny Cupcakes VS Russell's Nieces

Johnny: The thing that baffles me, is why would two girls who're famous via MTV, have to stoop so low to create such similar items, never mind brand? Maybe they're both really great girls who happened to hire some not-so-great designers? I'm not sure what the case is, but I do know that this should be brought to everyones attention.

Last Spring I was alerted by a customer who happened to work at a popular mall sportswear store. This customer of mine caught a glimpse of his manager’s catalog which had various items that were being released in the near future at all of their mall locations. One of the items in this companies catalog was a "Make Pastry Not War" t-shirt. Not only was it a very similar slogan, but it had the same EXACT placement, font, EVEN A CUPCAKE in the center of the t-shirt. This was no coincidence. Weeks later my inbox was flooded with furious Johnny Cupcakes customers who saw this same catalog with the 'Pastry' design in it. I could of made a big deal about it online, making everyone else aware of it. Instead, I decided not to be a cry baby and post it all over the internet, so I sought out a different route. I decided to contact my trademark attorney, who then contacted the owners of Pastry / Pastry Kicks. We got in touch with the President of a certain mall chain-store who ended up declining the order of all 'Make Pastry Not War' t-shirts.

OUR CONGRATS GO TO LEBRON JAMES, FOR SCORING FEBRUARY'S GQ COVER



WE LOVE LEBRON. ONE OF THE MOST DAPPER ATHLETES. OFTEN IMITATED, NEVER DUPLICATED. HERE'S A SMALL INTERVIEW CONDUCTED BY ASSOCIATE PRESS.



LeBron James has raised his fashion game.

"You look good, you play good," James said Monday after practice. "I was brought up that way."

James, who takes great pride in his wardrobe and tries to stay ahead of the style curve, will appear on the February cover of GQ Magazine — another first for the NBA superstar whose career has been defined by firsts.

Posing in a slate gray suit, pink shirt and gray tie, James added the GQ cover to his run of magazine fronts from Sports Illustrated to Fortune to Vogue, in which he was the first black male to appear on the cover in the influential fashion magazine's 116-year history.

"It's great," he said of his GQ cover. "It shows that I'm fashionable. I never thought I would be on the cover of GQ. But I've done some things I never thought I would do."

James sported a knit cap and scarf accessorized with a watch and leather studded bracelet as the Cavaliers prepared for their flight to Memphis, the first of six road games in the next two weeks for Cleveland.

A few years ago, James hired a personal stylist who helps with his wardrobe. But he joked that someone else may have more to do with his trendy duds.

"I have to thank (NBA commissioner) David Stern," James said. "Ever since he put in the rule about having to get dressed for the game, I had to get dressed."

Stern cracked down on his players a few years back, implementing a dress code of "business casual" attire and banning items such as sleeveless shirts, shorts, sunglasses while indoors, and headphones during team or league business.

Along with appearing on GQ's cover, James played a pickup game of hoops with a few of the magazines writers and editors, who drove to Cleveland for the chance to get on the court with the 24-year-old superstar. They also sat down for an interview in which James discusses his endorsement deals, his two young sons and Barack Obama's election as U.S. president.

James contributed $20,000 to a committee supporting Obama, participated in an early voter registration rally and hosted a free concert at Quicken Loans Arena with rap star Jay-Z to support his candidate. James is disappointed he won't be able to attend the President-elect's inauguration next week in Washington.

"Looking at the schedule and seeing we were going to be on the West Coast hurt a little," he said Monday. "But I have a job to do. It (the inauguration) is going to be unbelievable. I'll watch it and read about it. It will be an unbelievable day."
