Thursday I hit up the much talked about Sneaker Friends @ the Fox Theater. This is a sneaker heads event that usually serves as the precursor to Sneaker Pimps that hits the ATL this summer. Sneaker Friends is the brainchild of ATL mainstay DJ Greg Street of V-103.

Remember these??? The Jordans 7′s! Some people called them the Hare Jordans, we called them the Bugs Bunnies or the Space Jams depending on where your from. This is one of the most comfortable shoes ever made, having these on is like walking on Butter! Check this info I found from Kix and the City.

As we [reported a while back], the “Hare” Air Jordan VII is set to make it’s first comeback since the early 1990′s days of Bugs Bunny and Michael Jordan’s iconic time together. One of only two Air Jordan VIIs to never Retro (the other being the Bordeaux VII), the “Hare” VII has over time become one of the more sought after OG Air Jordan VIIs. Pretty faithful to the OG, the “Hare” Air Jordan Retro VII Retro features the Light Silver durabuck/White leather upper with Red accents. The “Hare” Retro also features the Red/Purple/Black 23 hit at the heel, the multi-colored tongue, and the multi-colored outsole.

The “Hare” Air Jordan VII Retro is set to release this Summer as part of the Air Jordan VII [Air Jordan XVI] Countdown Pack.

I need these in my Life!!!

Whuddup G Roc? The good folks at The Shoe Game.com got the exclusive preview on the Diadora samples that’ll be hitting select accounts real soon. Last Sunday me & Senor were talking about the company because we had an opportunity to give our input at a focus group they were having in the city. We were unable to make it but from what I heard bruthas didn’t CTC anyway. Oh well! These joints look hella dope and would go well with my Fighting Illini jersey. Whaddiya think?

About 3,000 counterfeits found during searches at stores

SOUTH BEND — St. Joseph County Police confiscated close to 3,000 pairs of suspected counterfeit Nike shoes at two South Bend stores this afternoon.

Detectives working with a private investigator hired by Nike learned about the operation last fall, police said.

Search warrants were obtained after undercover detectives made purchases at a number of locations around South Bend.

At Howard’s Mart, 416 Howard St., police arrested the owner of the store. He was charged with possession of stolen and counterfeit property.

Police said 1,900 pairs of shoes were seized from the store.

After the second raid at Shoes and More, 2903 W. Western Ave., the business owner was being questioned by police. About 800 pairs of shoes were seized from that store, investigators said.

The private investigator is from Edward R. Kirby and Associates out of Chicago, police said. Nike hired the firm in October 2007 after approaching stores suspected of selling fake shoes and telling them to stop doing so.

A search warrant was issued Tuesday based on the purchases made by the undercover officers and investigators.

Representatives from the investigation company say it’s one of the biggest counterfeit busts they’ve uncovered while working for Nike.

Shoes are Nike Air Force One and Nike Air Jordan knockoffs. The shoes were purchased for $30 from an importer in New York, who imported them from China.

Police said the shoes sold for $60 to $75.
