Nike Air Rally.

 

Tennis anyone? 

Dropped not long ago this sneaker from Nike shows that they too can make a nice tennis shoe.

This sneaker gives you everything you could ever ask for in a tennis shoe. Exept for actually being able to play tennis in them. It sports a pure white, gummed sole and a traditional colored heal. All of which makes it a very clean sneaker. But the best thing is the actual shape. Other tennis shoes has the tendency to be to rounded.

Simply said a nice sneaker for spring time. Will be easy to match with and can be worn at almost every occasion. Unless you find a special edition Stan Smith this is the way to go if you are on the search for a tennis sneak.

Adidas Forum Mid AT-AT.


Start the year with Star Wars.

The Best Stuff I See is back and so is Sneaker Mondays. To really get us started here is something from Adidas new Star Wars Collaboration.

Star Wars and sneakers combined, can it get better? For sneaker freaks and Sci-Fi nerds it really can't. Adidas dropped this collection now in January, it consists of a number of original models remade in Star Wars editions. Even thought the Forum Mid is the cleanest one in this AT-AT (All Terrain Armored Transport) version the Stan Smith as the Millennium Falcon and the Super Star as the Death Star are also nice. To see those and the rest of the collection all you need to do is click here.

Even though the AT-AT version is clean what I was really looking forward to with this collaboration was a plain white t-shirt with the Star Wars logo in Adidas blue. But looking on the Adidas web page you find that they have not made such a t-shirt. They made other T-shirts (ugly ones). But no one with just the logo. Either Adidas are not allowed to by George Lucas or they are just plain stupid. It's a shame no matter what the reason might be.

The Best Stuff I See will continue to give you the latest from the sneaker front every Monday. But do keep in mind! That if there is a sneaker that you think will make the cut then simply send an e-mail to thebeststuffisee@hotmail.de

Adidas Forum Mid Plant Pack


Plant a didas.

Sneaker Monday is here with a Adidas sneak that is so clean i actually gets a bit dirty. Strange how things can work out.

Earlier this year Adidas released a line of sneaker that are suppose to be inspired from nature. They took five different classics and remade them in all white with a brown sole. And to top if of the only details are the Adidas logo turn into a plant.

This is the kind of sneaker that I like. Clean lines all in white. To bad that it's so expensive. A normal Forum mid can be bought for around 80€, but for this one you need to pay out and extra 50€. But then again an extra 50 might not be so bad since you get the false feeling that this shoe some how will be good for the environment. It has a plant on it, it must be ecologically friendly.

Playing on such things is dirty. It's to be expected from a multi international corporation. I would get angry but they keep making such clean sneakers. Damn you Adidas!

On a different note, How was your weekend? All I can say about mine is that you should have seen me. I managed to do some great party moves on my way down the stairs. It might not have been pretty. But it was one of those things that I wish was on tape. Kind of.

And remember. You stay classy Internet!

Neon Green Shoe Laces.

Mr Lacy.

We can just run and hide or we can stand up and fight the darkness.

The fashion circle might be going away from the 80's but there is still time. And what is more 80's than something in a nice neon color? Sure it might count to late 80's maybe even early 90's, but who really cares about the exact second when we have a chance to use them once more.

The only thing to think about is not to use to much. You have to have a specific style to make a neon colored jacket work. What will not be to much is a pair of shoe laces. They can either make your old sneakers look cool in a retro way or they can make all eyes turn to your new sneaks.

But that is not all. Some bright colors will help in the fight against the darkness. The darkness that the season is giving us. Also against the darkness that we chose with our clothes. Everybody is walking around in black and dark blue. It doesn't help. It's dark enough as it is. I must admit that I to am walking around in black clothes, but to my defence I am also sporting neon green shoe laces.

Now all that is needed is a way to incorporate some neon color somewhere else to make it match.

Nike SB Zoom Air.

Where's the Sneaks at?

Sneakers, that's what Sneaker Monday is all about. Obviously. But lately the number of clean sneaks have bin going down.

This time of year is not what you would call The Sneaker Season. It all changes when the leaves start falling. For some reason less and less sneaks hit the stores. And you can see it on the streets as well. Less sneaks and more normal leather shoes. It is like everybody feels a need to be more serious. People must be looking out the window and saying to them self's -Autumn, again? Well I guess it's time to get serious. And off they go to buy loafers.

For the ones that don't feel the urge to be too serious here we have the Nike SB Zoom Air. It's from Nike SB so of course it's going to be a low sneaker. A simpler sneak but really clean. Classic lines and colors. I especially like the color combo.

Stay tuned to The Best Stuff I See five days a week, every week.

Air Jordan 1 High Strap


High Jordan.

Sneaker Monday gives you the High Strap Jordan.

Welcome to an autumn Sneaker Monday. I hope that you had a nice weekend because now a new week starts with new sneakers and new chances. And as the season is changing the sneaks change. The new sneakers that are being released are no longer white or have bright/light color combos. Now it's going towards darker colors and more discreet details.

Like this Jordan. It's a classic Jordan design just that it's a little bit higher and of course it has a strap. But if you don't like the strap you can always take it off. The material is also a bit different. Not just normal leather but also a special mix fabric that is designed to keep your feet try. Which comes in handy if you're in Berlin at the moment.

Clean black with yellow details. Easy to match with and the yellow makes this sneak a eye catcher. Always a good thing.

Stay tuned this week as the fall series goes to part tree, the music keeps spinning and new things amazes.

Clae Russel.



Warm up.

Sneaker Monday is here again. Clae brings us one of there fall line sneaks.

A sneak that's comfortable and warm is just what is needed when the temperature begins to drop. This being a more "dressed up" sneaker than usual here on Sneaker Monday I will have to point out that it will go with the more serious fall style. So for the ones that are prone to bright colors, this might not be the sneak for you. But for all of us that are working on the more strict style this Clae sneak will be a good option.

The designers chose wool and leather as the main materials for this sneak and that brings a extra level to it. It also helps in making this one into a very Autumn sneaker.

A guess that the reason that I like this one is because of the resemblance to the Adidas hi-tops. But this sneak is clean in a little bit different way.

And by the way my prediction in my Friday post was right. I did have an excellent weekend. All thanks to the people around me. I hope I'm right when I say that we will all have a great week.

Stan Smith Mid W

Half Smith, Half High.

Sneaker Monday is here, and this time it's something for the ladies.

There is something special about a beautiful girl wearing sneakers. Something athletic, something spontaneous that is hard to describe. A pair of nice sneaks always gives a couple of extra points in my book. But that's not all, women can wear other types of sneakers than men can. A sneak that would look ridiculous on a guy can be perfect on a girl.

Like this Stan Smith Mid, a clean white sneak with a somewhat bigger Velcro strap at the top. Easy to match with and perfect to combine with tight jeans. A couple of other nice sneaks from Adidas are the Honey Mid Synthetic and the Top Ten Hi from the sleek collection.

And remember to respect the sneak, can't stretch that enough.

Nike RT1 High.


The Un Yeezy's

Sneaker Monday is here again. After a hard weekend with long nights and short days it's nice to be back with the day walkers.

What do we have in store for this week? We have the RT1's from Nike. It's yet another High Top but this one is a bit different. Clean design with a more descreet color choice. The real difference is that it's made with leather. That makes this sneak the warmer alternative for the one who easily gets cold feet.

Isn't ironic that the sky has the same color as the RT1. Autumn is on it way.

Nike Jordan Brand Air Jordan Retro High.


High in the Air.

Sneaker Monday brings you a fresh sneak every week. This time around it's one of Nike's latest Jordan productions. Classic and clean in it's white and red colors.

This is a clean sneak with a classic design. It's no wonder that Nike choose to release a lot of different Jordan's on a regular basis. The question they should ask them self is if this is going to flood the market. With to many sneaks in this line it will get harder and harder to keep it exclusive. And Nike is normally good at this. They only sell certain sneakers in certain stores. But when the shoes themselves start to look similar that doesn't matter anymore.

Either way, a clean white Hi-top is like the Jordan here a must at the moment.

Adidas Originals Top Ten Hi part 2


Sweet White and Blue Baby!

It's here, Sneaker Monday! Time to take a look at what is going on in the Sneaker world. What's new or what is simple sweet.

After looking around a while I realized that there is not that much happening in the world of sneaks at the moment. So why not bring something up that's bin around for a bit but is really clean. The Adidas Top Ten Hi blue on white is a very nice sneak. I have seen them out in the stores this summer, and I always stop for a second and re-think my finances. Is there room in the budget for them? This summer that answer has bin no. But the more often I walk by a pair that answer is more likely to change.

The Top Ten Hi series brings that cleanliness that I expect from Adidas. And the colors on this pair is going to be so easy to match with. The white goes with your tee or shirt and the blue will always fit to your jeans.

I wish I had this pair this weekend when I was playing in the playground that is Berlin. They would have gone perfectly with my white shirt with thin blue lines and my bluer than blue jeans. But one can't have it all... Or can I? ;)

Stan Smith 2


Black Stan.

Monday is here. The weekend is over and it's time to get serious. And what can be more serious than Sneaker Monday.

This time around I thought it would be nice with something more stable. Stan Smith 2 in it's black addition. A simple, clean and nice sneak. The design and the lines on this one makes it into a classic. A classic that will work somewhat like a cornerstone. Because it's just as important to have a clean black sneaker as it is to have a clean white one. Black is always present, so make sure you have a dark sneak that you can match with.

After this weekend I wish I wore my black sneaks. Berlin is a great city to party in but it's not the cleanest city. People don't really care if they step on your sneakers. So it would sometimes be better to wear a pair of black Stan Smith's than to get pissed when looking down at your once white sneaks. But it's a small price to pay to be able to party in this town.

Hang in there, the weekend is just around the corner.

Nike Jordan Brand Air Jordan DMP 1 Retro Hi 2 Pac


"Bulls vs Celtics"

Welcome to a new week with new chances and choices. And how do we kick start the week if not with Sneaker Monday.

Maybe you are also drooling over this double pack that Nike just dropped on the sneaker world. If you are your not alone. Nike just keep coming with new Jordan's in retro looks. And here we have two of them. One is clean red that carry the bulls colors. If you like to match with red and are prone to high top then this is the pair for you. But then again the green Celtic pair has a cleanliness that is hard to describe. I think it's because of the spot on color combo. And as I understand it these sneaks are only sold in the so called Defining Moments 2-Pack. So getting this 2-pack will set you up in style for a little while. The choice you have to make will be red or green. A very nice choice to be forced to make every morning.

I on the other hand have a bigger choice to make. One that could define my future. Should I stay or should I go? At the moment I'm leaning towards staying. But maybe that's just the summer talking.

Adidas Originals Campus 80's White on White


White as snow.

New week and new shoes. Let's start this week with a Sneaker Monday. This time around it's Adidas that has dropped a very nice sneak. One could get blinded be the brightness of them. Here we have the example and I mean THE example of a clean sneak. White on white with the classic Adidas lines. I have to find out where I can get a pair here in Berlin. With that said this is a sneak that will work with anything (or nothing for that matter). With this one you can't go wrong.

I hope that you enjoyed Bobo's entry the other day. If I'm lucky I will be able to convince him to write some more stuff for us. But we will see what happens here in Berlin. Bobo can't really be trusted. I mean, I like the guy but he's sneaky. And not in Sneaker Monday type of way.

And just because it's a new week and the weekend is far away does not mean that one can not enjoy the summer. So, Carpe Diem all!

Nike Air Force 1 Low , White /Total Orange


Brave new week.

Sneaker Monday brings you a Air force 1 sneak this week. It's low and it's orange. A very nice color combination even if the orange can get hard to match with. The Air force splatter is not to big and located on rear. I was never a big fan of the splatter but mixed in with orange it not bad at all.

I hope you all enjoyed the guest spot from Olle last week. I know I did. Hopefully we will all hear more from the Tetris man in the month to come.

And now a new week faces us. I think there is going to be a lot more work but hopefully there is going to be a lot more fun as well. Berlin in summer is a nice place.

And don't forget to spread the word.

Adidas Nizza Consortium


Style for some.

Sneaker Monday, I took a good look on what is on offer out there on the sneaker front and I was not to happy with what I found. Off course taste is different from person to person but still it's calm out there. No immediate winners. After closer inspection I found the Adidas Nizza Consortium hi top, this is not my style but if I was rich or company's where giving me free stuff (hint hint) I would definitely get a pair of these guys. If I had more money I would buy them.

When looking for sneaker the key is cleanliness, clean in the sense that the lines are simple but still powerful, that the colors match each other and are not to "loud" and that the shape fits with the overall concept. This is not always easy to find. But I found it with this one.

I hope that the supply of fresh sneaker's pick up and if you have a sneaker that needs some spotlight or something else that should be seen, then you know what to do.

First post. First thing I saw.


Not that anyone will read this, but that does not matter at this point.

Soo what will happen here, well you tell me! What do people want to see and read about?
About my day and what tedious tasks I did and didn't do? No, that shit is boring.

I thought that in between spelling mistakes and personal ideas I will post some cool stuff.

As this picture of a sneaker, it's not just any sneaker it is THE sneaker. The Addidas Stan Smith it the undisputed champ and king of the "clean" sneaker. Just look at it's designe, crispy white and tennis green.

The Smith as I like to call it is from the begining a tennis shoe named after the tennis player, yes you guessed it Stan Smith (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stan_Smith). Back when tennis player did not wear neon colored brands and ear rings the size of plates. Back when it was a bit more style in the game.


Needless to say I own a couple of these sneakers. Im wearing my green Stan Smiths right now.
My overall point is that this is always a clean and classic sneaker to wear at any occasion. A must when considering a white sneaker that will never go out of fashion (pun not intended).
