Concept 1s Banned in the NBA

The NBA is prohibiting its players from wearing a new line of sneakers that claims to increase vertical leap.

"Under league rules, players may not wear any shoe during a game that creates an undue competitive advantage," the NBA said in a statement Tuesday.

Athletic Propulsion Labs' $300 Concept 1 shoe employs a spring-based system designed to increase lift.

The Los Angeles-based company was founded by twins Adam and Ryan Goldston, both former USC basketball walk-ons whose father worked in the shoe industry.

The brothers said Tuesday that many NBA players, including about 30 percent of the rookie class, expressed interest in the shoes but they wouldn't reveal names because the players had signed with other companies.

New SSB site coming soon

Hello all, I've been working on a new SSB site designed to be more of a repository of information on real, fakes, YouTube videos, legit site list, legit ebay list and more. Just feel with all the questions I've gotten over the past couple years gathering that information and putting it together would benefit the masses. There will be no consignment, however we will list items from time to time and connect buyers and sellers together. The site should be launching later this week possibly this weekend. If you have any suggestions of what you would like to see please feel free to leave a comment. The blog will live on with a redesign possible and will drive the content and subject matter of the new site. Thank you all for the love over the past couple years and help me create a site that will help all.

Air Jordan III Doernbecher

Doernbecher Children's Hospital, Nike and Jordan Brand have been partnered up for a little while now bring some creative designs to both Nike's and Air Jordan's to raise money for the hospital. Below we have a first look at this upcoming November release of the Doernbecher Air Jordan III.

Details: The upper features a tonal red-on-red elephant print, a black lace placket and tongue, and a black and metallic silver midsole which is paired with a translucent outsole. The upper features a special grid graphic of tiles featuring hints of special shapes and patterns. Not sure what the inspiration of the design comes from yet but this is one HOT looking sneaker (cough cough much better than the Premio VII). Personally I really like this shoe the red and black just look great together. Enjoy.



Doernbecher VII will officially unveil on October 9th
