WANT

2012 is going to be a great year full of awesome sneaker releases. I want to share some of the ones I'm especially looking forward to, because I just can't contain the excitement to myself! :D


New Balance 996 Valentine's Day
Copped these already! They're currently making their way over from China, so it's gonna take a while for them to get to me. I love the colorway and heart details on these. They're only available through Ebay right now, but if you're looking to cop these elsewhere, be sure to keep up with sneakHerbox.com for updates on US availability!


Air Jordan 4 Tech Grey
These are a classic, I really need them. Dropping February 18th!


Air Jordan 4 Voltage Cherry
These come out the same day as the Tech Grey 4's... por que??!?! I don't know if I'll be able to afford these :(
They drop just before my birthday though, so there's still hope (:


Nike Dunk SB Mid Un-Tiffany
I admit, these don't compare to the originals at all. The Tiffany Dunk Lows set a ridiculous standard since they're so highly revered, and I feel like comparing these to the originals make them seem like a complete fail. These don't even have the silver swoosh or croc print, and I think it's weird that they chose to release these as mids. I mean, is the opposite of low mid?! No, it's high. I know it's stupid, but I think I'd like these better if they weren't associated with the Tiffany Dunks, because then I wouldn't feel like these were a wack job rendition of the originals.
But anyways, setting all standards and expectations and comparisons aside, I really like these. The light aqua colorway is just so pretty (:  These are set to drop in March this year.


Air Jordan 4 Ultraviolet
Purple accents in all the right places--LOVE! I already marked my calendar for these--April 21st!


Nike Air Max 1
My heart starts beating a little faster whenever I look at these. They make me want to run around squealing!!!! :D They're supposed to be coming out sometime this summer... can't wait!

Will any of you be making cops with me this year? (:

@ jasmin: i don't have any sb's yet, so i'm not sure about sizing availability. i know active stores carry them though, so maybe you can call to find out before they release? i didn't post anything about the bambi nikes, but i think they released spring 2008. if you're looking for them, your best bet will probably be to check ebay! good luck (;

ANA said...

The last thing I need is a sneaker fetish to go with my nail polish obsession, manga obsession, and growing handbag obsession LOL! The Ultraviolet Air Jordans, though, I would consider! Those are so cool!

Jenni Lee said...

Hmmm... What are we looking at here? $700-800? Or more?

I have to say I really like the new balances. Is that red suede?

Nike Air Max in Serbert makes me want ice cream.

Thanks for sharing your wish list!
