Hmm, the fact that they’re limited edition trainers appeals to me but I’m not that much of a Dizzee stan to cop.

On Friday 18th September, Nike Sportswear and Mercury Music Prize winning recording artist Dizzee Rascal will release the very special, and strictly limited, Nike Air Max 90 ‘Tongue N’ Cheek’ sneaker. The shoe has been created in a special partnership between Dizzee, Nike Design and long-time Dizzee collaborator and creative director, Ben Drury and will go on sale exclusively at Nike’s1948 store in London’s Shoreditch, ahead of the release of Dizzee’s fourth LP, Tongue N’ Cheek (Monday 21st September).

This promo video has been created specially to celebrate these two releases. Art directed by Drury, shot by hype photographers Tim & Barry (dontwatchthat.tv) the same creative team behind the album artwork, also includes the skills of up and coming director/animator James Copeman. Set to ‘Chillin Wiv Da Man Dem’ – the sound of Dizzee at his most laid-back- the film fuses elements of the album artwork with additional footage, and is a light hearted look into Rascal’s world.

This is a massive look for Dizzee and just goes to show what an international superstar he’s become.

In case you have been under a rock the past couple months, you would know Kanye West has released his collaboration with Nike; the Air Yeezy.  There are 3 colourways (Grey, Black and Beige) and each is being released in consecutive months, which started back in early April.

Today is the release of the black colourway which I need in my life.  I shall be coppin’ these in about 4 hours, but in order to increase my chances of getting a pair I won’t say where.  The best colourway is still the Black Beige one imo and that’s released early June.  All colourways are extremely rare, with the UK only being allocated 50 pairs.  SMH.

Hit the jump to see the other two colourways.

Update: the retailer is delayed by 90 minutes so far so fuck it, I’m going to sleep.  There are always the Beige ones next month.
