Knowear just shared their latest addition to their looks, and one of the items was this fine looking runner shoes from adidas. I usually ain't got much love for adidas' runners, but this one is really good i can't resist. The shoe is adidas Element Refine Tricot Shoes. Shoe wasn't much of a good shoe in any other colorway, but this one in Run White / Clear Grey is an instant cop. Feature Tricot mesh upper and integrated sockliner support, and high-abrasion EVA midsole (yeah like i know what that is), and high abrasion EVA outsole with flex grooves for flexibility.

Nike Flyknit Lunar One+ hits Jakarta

Couple of days ago, on february 6th 2013, the new Nike Flyknit Lunar 1+ was released in Jakarta. Celebrating their one year anniversary, Flyknit came with its latest form, which combines its revolutionary knitted upper, with the Lunarlon foam cushioning, makes it extremely lightweight and comfortable. To make it even more perfect, Nike also incorporates their Flywire cables to the shoe so it will give a great support to your feet while you move or run. Nike Flyknit Lunar 1+ is now available in 6 colorways (3 men, 3 womens), at Nike Pacific Place Jakarta and Nike Grand Indonesia. I went to check out Nike Grand Indonesia, and here are some pictures from the store.

FlyKnit

Since its appearance a while ago, FlyKnit has been one of the most anticipated sneakers from Nike in 2012. It is said to be one of the best creation from Nike in the 2000s. The FlyKnit Racer was launched at Nike Sportswear 1948 in London couple months ago, but people here in South East Asia especially Indonesia are still waiting for the arrival date of FlyKnit Racer and HTM FlyKnit (Singapore is introducing the FlyKnit as i post this). HTM FlyKnit came from 3 brilliant minds, including Nike's CEO, Mark Parker, Nike Design Legend, Tinker Hatfield and fragment design founder, Hiroshi Fujiwara. 

FlyKnit is made using yarns and fabrics variations that are precisely engineered only where they are needed for a featherweight, formfitting and virtually seamless upper. A pair of size 9 FlyKnit Racer weighs around 160g. Damn. With the formfitting knitted upper, FlyKnit was supposed to create a feeling of a second skin. (If you said that Nike Free gives a barefoot feel, maybe you should try this first). Nike Flyknit was born from the runners feedback, who craved for a shoe with quality of a sock" sung fit that goes virtually unnoticed to the wearer. 

Alongside HTM Flyknit, Nike also created the Nike FlyKnit Trainer+ for everyday running shoe, which weighs around 220 grams. Recently, the images of the upcoming FlyKnit has surfaced on the internet. The colors are crazy good. Which one will you cop?
